Popping and Ticking Sounds, Funny Noises

These occasional noises are harmless and will nut
hurt your audio system or your speakers. All electro-
static speakers are guilty of making odd noises at one
time or another.

These noises may be caused by dirt and dust particles
collecting on the speaker, by high humidity or by AC line
fluctuations that may occur in your area.

Dirt and dust may be vacuumed off with abrush attach-
ment connected to your vacuum cleaner or you may
blow them off with compressed air.

DO NOT SPRAY ANY KIND OF CLEANING AGENT ON
OR IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THEM.
