Power Handling and Listening Levels

STARKESOUND recommends reasonable power output settings for the amplifier so it 
operates in a way that will not result in distortion. Even a modest amplifier, if producing 
distortion, can damage speakers. Turn down the volume if you hear a gritty noise or 
other signs of strain. Prolonged or repeated operation of your speakers with a distorted 
signal can cause damage that is not covered by the warranty. Note that it is imperative 
you do not overdrive the bass capability of smaller speakers. Listen for noises, such as 
pops, caused by the music's bass line. Use of the loudness control and/or full bass boost 
at louder volumes is likely to overdrive the woofer. Use such controls sparingly.

How to Care for your Speakers 

Slightly dampen a soft terry cloth towel with water, glass cleaner, or a diluted mild 
detergent and then carefully clean the speakers. The towel should be just damp enough 
to wipe the surface clean without leaving a trail of moisture. Do not, under any 
circumstances, use abrasive cleaners or any cleaner containing chemicals harsher than 
those found in glass cleaner.
