6 Care of Your Loudspeakers
Cabinet (Hardwood Finish)
AVALON ACOUSTICS hardwood finished loudspeakers are supplied with a
special polish and two lint-free polishing cloths, in order to properly care for
the high quality furniture lacquer. The following polishing instructions should be
observed:
IMPORTANT: Use the supplied furniture polish ONLY. Do NOT use cleaners that
contain ammonia, strong solvents, or abrasive materials. Use of these
materials can degrade, scratch, or even DESTROY the finish.
1. Apply the supplied polish to one of the clean, lint-free polishing cloths (or
use cotton cloth that is clean and lint-free), and carefully wipe it on the
cabinet. Be careful NOT to apply the polish to the loudspeaker drivers.
WARNING: Do NOT apply polish to the loudspeaker drivers.
2. Wipe off the excess polish until the desired luster is achieved.
Grille Assembly
The grille assembly may be removed from the cabinet and gently vacuumed
to remove dust. If the felt insert is removed, please note the inside-outside
orientation when re-installing it. The hole for the tweeter is beveled on the side
toward the listener, to provide optimal dispersion characteristics.
Drivers
The drivers (woofer, midrange, and tweeter) require no regular maintenance.
Do not attempt to clean the midrange or tweeter dome, as they are easily
damaged. If desired, you may remove dust from the woofer cone by using a
small, soft dusting brush.
WARNING: The drivers in this transducer are coupled in an intricate manner;
SEVERE DAMAGE may result from the removal of these drivers. All service must
be performed by an authorized representative of AVALON ACOUSTICS.
On occasion, perhaps once a year, check to insure that mounting screws for
all drivers are snug. Vibrations could cause driver mounting screws to loosen.
Using the correct device, simply check to see if the screws are snug. Do not
overtighten!
