[. . . ] Foreign bodies and liquids - Avoid letting foreign materials or liquids enter the device. they could cause fire or electric shocks. Pay special care to warnings - All the warning labels on The product or warning notes in the user's manual must be followed. Device on their own, except for those maintenance operations described in this manual. [. . . ] No solid object or piece of furniture should be placed between the speakers and the listener. An effect of mask, even partial disturbs completely the sound reproduction as it attenuates the high frequencies and also, in most cases, the midrange frequencies. placing the speakers in niches is not recommended. Unless designed for this application, bookshelf placement will alter the frequency response of the speaker, especially in the low frequencies. If a bookshelf location cannot be avoid, the speaker should be set up to minimize various resonance, and the visible part of the grille must be outside the niche. The Pacific 3 SA model is delivered with a set of decoupling spikes . These accessories are to be screwed in the inserts on the base of the speakers after having removed the caps (turn them anti-clockwise). Adjust the height of the spikes by using the M4 Allen key delivered with the speakers. These accessories ensure the stability of the speaker while limiting resonance coming from certain types of grounds like wood floors. Speakers are delivered with a front grille to protect drivers. It is possible to use them without this front grille, by gently pulling its top end in order to cut off its magnetic link with the magnets to the front panel. To get the grill back in place, position it in front of the speaker and approach it to the front panel until the magnetic link is effective. These operations must be carried out very smoothly in order not to damage prematurely the veneer covering the magnets on the front panel of the speaker . Powerful drivers generate magnetic fields that can extend beyond the boundaries of the speaker cabinet. To get the full sonic potential of Cabasse loudspeakers and avoid power losses, the cables connecting the speakers to the power amplifier must have the lowest possible electrical resistance. To help you in choosing the minimum correct cable gauge, follow diagram. In order to maintain the phase relationship and frequency balance of the loudspeaker system, both loudspeakers must be properly connected to the power amplifier. When properly connected, the cones of the drivers of both loudspeakers will move in the same direction when driven by identical speakers will move in the same signals. If the cones move in opposite directions, the resulting out of phase signals will create a perceptible power loss, particularly in the low frequencies. In either case, always connect red or plus to red or plus and black or minus to black or minus. Connections should be identical for both channels. To check that the speakers are in correct phase, switch the system to mono while music is being played. [. . . ] These hi-tech finish do not require any specific care.
