The ear and brain tend to interpret distorted sound as loudness and thus underestimate the actual level of undistorted sound. ATC subwoofers,
like all ATC products, demonstrate very much lower levels of distortion than conventional systems of a similar size and it is therefore advisable to
begin listening at an articially low level and carefully increase the volume. It is also possible for the ATC systems to produce sucient sound pressure
levels for your ears themselves to become a source of distortion and make the sound appear harsh. Any audible distortion indicates that either the
system or your ears are being overloaded and that the volume level should be reduced.
When a subwoofer is successfully integrated into a system it should become impossible to discern from the main loudspeakers. If the subwoofer
is audible as a separate element, then it is likely the level is too high, the lter settings require adjustment, or the positioning can be improved. Please
refer to Section 5 of this manual.
High technology material nishes are used in this product. The surfaces are durable and with a little care can be kept as good as new even under
conditions of heavy use. Normally, a dry duster will be all that is required to keep the nishes clean.
Heavy soiling of the cabinet or bae can be cleaned using a cloth slightly moistened with a non-abrasive household cleaner. Dust can carefully be
removed from the drive unit with the use of a dry, lint free cloth.
There are no components within the speakers that can be considered expendable, or that would benet from regular maintenance. There is no
requirement for any kind of routine service work and there is no schedule for preventative maintenance. There are no user-replaceable parts within
the speaker, and in the unfortunate event of any malfunction, repair should be referred to either the supplying dealer or consultant, the relevant
importer, or ATC. ATC has every condence in the quality of each product that it manufactures.
