AudioEngine P4 PASSIVE BOOKSHELF SPEAKERS - Manual (Page 5)

Operation
Your AP4 speakers are perfect for digital hybrid amplifiers (Class-D, Class-T,
etc.) as well as most stereo receivers, integrated amps, and tube amplifiers.
The AP4 has a 4 ohm impedance rating but will generally sound great when
connected to receivers or power amps with 8 ohm speaker outputs. The AP4
is designed to work with a wide range of listening levels, but every
component has its limits and speaker damage most often occurs from
sustained high volume levels in some or all frequencies. Try to avoid
excessive bass or treble settings or equalizer boosts and if you hear unusual
distortion or breakup then reduce the volume.
Home Theater Setup
Your AP4’s are also designed to sound great in a home theater. For
multi-channel setup refer to your surround sound receiver or processor user
manuals. The internet is also an excellent source of information on home
theater and surround sound setup.
Break-in Period
Your speakers will sound great out of the box and will get better over time.
No need to do anything else but listen to them, but give them at least 30 to
50 hours break-in time before doing any critical listening.

Speaker Cleaning

cabinets or speakers. Just wipe down with a soft, dry cloth.
