Vienna Acoustics Schonberg Series Speaker User Manual


 
AMPLIFICATION
Our speakers demonstrate outstanding sonic results with a variety of amplifier types.
They feature a cominaction of high efficiency and gentle impedance curves that allow
them to be used with either solid state or tube electronics.
However, it is still important to select an amplifier with care since the full potential of
your system will only be revealed by quality electronics. Amplifier designs do have
distinct and different sounds.
It is important to listen carefully to the match of amplifier and loudspeaker to ensure
that the com-bination works well sonically for you.
Though rated amplifier wattage bears little correla-tion to either sound quality or
drive capability, the user is cautioned that amplifiers of lower power ratings, more
frequently than more powerful ampli-fiers, are particularly prone to producing
danger-
ously significant amounts of distortion as they are stressed beyond their limits.
This distortion can and will damage loudspeaker components. This damage will not be
covered under warranty.
BREAKING IN NEW LOUDSPEAKERS
Your loudspeakers contain a large number of pre-cision built moving parts. These parts
require play-ing time initially to develop their maximum smooth-ness and extension.
Very audible improvements can be observed during about 30 hours of playing.
Additional improvements will be evident after 100 hours of playing time, at which
point the speakers will have reached their full musical potential.
MAINTENANCE
Your speaker cabinets can be cleaned periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use
any chemical detergents. Should spots or stains appear, clear water can be used to
gently remove them.
Should the bass drivers become dusty, it is safe to use a soft brush to clean the
woofers.
Happy Listening!
