To maintain speaker appearance, we recommend wiping them down with a clean damp

soft cloth. To clean dust from the grille cloth, use a vacuum with a brush attachment.

Owner’s Manual

Features

The Impression Series speakers feature poly-matrix cone bass drivers and aluminized

poly-matrix cone midrange drivers. These rigid cones resist flexing and contribute to the

accurate reproduction of the audio signal, providing higher overall sound quality.
A quality fabric dome tweeter is used for high frequencies in Impression Series

speakers. Higher power handling is achieved through the use of magnetic liquid

cooling in the tweeter. To protect the tweeter against being over driven, a polyswitch

(a current limiting device) is incorporated in the crossover network.
Each Impression Series speaker model features a crossover network to minimize

driver interaction irregularities and maximize the ability of each driver to accurately

reproduce its respective band of frequencies. Five-way binding posts ensure a solid

electrical connection to these crossover networks.
The Impression Series speakers’ cabinets are constructed of ½-inch medium density

fiberboard because of its inert properties, thereby minimizing sound coloration. The

front baffles are double layered to 1-inch thickness helping to prevent excess acoustic

radiation from the cabinet.

Attaching Speaker Wires

If using a banana jack, attach the matching positive or negative wire and push directly

into binding post top hole.
If not using a banana jack, simply loosen the binding nut to allow the hole in the side

of the terminal to become exposed. Strip ¼-inch of the insulation from the end of

the speaker wire and insert the exposed wire end into the now exposed hole in the

side of the terminal. Tighten the binding nut by turning the nut clockwise until the

speaker wire is secured. Repeat for the other speaker wire(s) as necessary.
