ASSOCIATED
EOUIPMENT
The 03 is a very high
quality
sound reproducer
and
theretore will
benefit from
the use of the very
best associated
eOuipment.
Since it
is
extremely accurate,
it will reveal
sources
of distortion
elsewhere
in the system.
For example,
distortion resulting
from
cartridge
misalignment
will be reproduced
accurateiy.
Since
deep bass
response
is very
good.
the
turntable should
be well isolated
from
vibrations
so
that there is no Iow
frequency,ring,
or
,howl,
at high
tevets,
Since
the
impedance
of
the 03's does not
fall betow
4 ohms
and the
reactive
component
is never large.
thoy are a comparatively
easy
load for
amplifiers
to drive and wi not
present
any special
problems
with
any amplifier.
Because
of its high
efficiency,
the 03 will
p.ovide
good
dynamic
range
with amplifiers
of only moderate
power.
However, it is
impodant not
to
overdrive
your
amplifier so
that
jt
produces
distortion
which
can damage high
trequency
drivers. tf high
sound
levels
are desired,
ihe 03 is
designed to
accept large
amounts of
powerand
provide
high
dynamic range.
lt wilt
benefit from
the use
of
amplifiers rated
up to three hundred
watts
per
channel.
