AC Power Requirements

 
Before plugging an EON speaker into an outlet ensure that it is able to provide 
the appropriate AC power. EON speaker systems have been designed to 
automatically detect 115V or 230V AC mains voltage 50/60 Hz. 

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES OPERATE THE UNIT WITH AN AC POWER SUPPLY LESS THAN 
100V OR GREATER THAN 240V. DOING SO MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR SPEAKER 
SYSTEM WHICH WILL NOT BE COVERED BY WARRANTY.

A robust AC supply is necessary for maximum performance. If the supply is too weak the bass performance may

AC supply is restored it will continue to operate. Plugging multiple systems into the same outlet and long 
extension cord runs may affect the AC supply to the systems.

CAUTION

In compliance with safety agency criteria and proper system operation, it is critical that the system  
installer observe all electrical safety practices at all times and provide proper earth grounding for all  
AC Power connections.

In the rare event that it does get too hot it will automatically shut down to protect itself. When its temperature 
has returned to within its operating range it will turn back on. A condition under which this may occur is when the 
system is operated in very high ambient temperatures and the heat sink on the rear of the enclosure is in direct 
sunlight.  Always ensure adequate cooling and appropriate shade.

Care and Maintenance

While your EON speakers are rugged and will provide years of service, some common sense care in handling 
will prevent damage and preserve appearance.

Protect your speakers from moisture. Avoid exposing the speakers to direct moisture. Any electrically 
powered device can produce dangerous shock hazards when wet or exposed to moisture. Keep speakers
