CABINET
Reduces cabinet-induced colorations with
0.75-inch (19mm) thick walls and extensive
internal bracing. For even greater sound
enhancement, rounded baffle edges
minimize diffraction and optimize treble
response.
The cabinet’s wood veneer finish does not
require routine maintenance. However,
cabinet surfaces that have been marked
with fingerprints, dust, or other dirt can be
cleaned using a soft cloth and a high-
quality furniture polish. If a higher-gloss
finish is desired, a high-quality wax can
also be used.
To clean the cabinet:
1. Apply a high-quality furniture polish
to a soft cloth.
2. Use the cloth to lightly wipe the cabinet
surface.
Note
The grille can also be cleaned using a
vacuum with a soft-bristled brush
attachment.
CAUTION
To prevent cabinet damage, do not use
a cloth made with steel wool or metal
polish to clean the cabinet.To prevent
possible transducer damage, do not
apply furniture polish directly to the
cabinet.
FILTER NETWORK
Optimizes loudspeaker on-and-off axis
response with high-order filter at 2.2kHz,
helping to ensure smooth octave-to-octave
balance and timbral accuracy. Separate
woofer and tweeter filter boards prevent
mutual interference between filter network
components, dramatically reducing
distortion over a wide dynamic range.
Gold-plated binding posts accommodate
heavy speaker cables, while separate
Placement Compensation and Tweeter
Level controls provide precise balance to
compensate for less-than-ideal loudspeaker
placement and listening room acoustics.
WOOFER PORT
Enhances low-frequency extension.
Computer-optimized internal and external
flares minimize distortion resulting from
air turbulence.

1. Placement Compensation
Control
Optimizes the M22’s response to different
loudspeaker placements. Refer to the
Loudspeaker Placement section that
begins on page 10 for more information.
• Select the Flush Mounted setting if
the M22 is placed in a bookcase or
wall unit or if the M22 is located
less than 2 feet (0.61m) from walls
and other objects.
• Select the Stand Mounted setting if
the loudspeaker is placed on a stand
(such as the optional pedestal
stand).
