Break-in period
The speaker drivers used in Vestia loudspeakers are complex mechanical components which require
a certain time to adapt to operate at their best and to become acclimatised to the temperature and
humidity of the listening environment. This break-in period varies depending on the climate and may last
a few weeks. To reduce the break-in period, we recommend operating the loudspeakers for approximately
twenty consecutive hours. Once the loudspeakers’ characteristics have totally stabilised, you will be able
to enjoy your Vestia loudspeakers’ performance to the full.
Special precautions
The only maintenance required for the Vestia loudspeakers is dusting with a dry cloth. If your
loudspeaker becomes dirty, we recommend simply cleaning it with a damp cloth.
Never use solvents, detergents, alcohol-based or corrosive products, scrapers or scourers to
clean the surface of a loudspeaker.
Keep the loudspeakers away from sources of heat.
Choosing the right amplifier
It is not an excess of amplifier power that can damage your loudspeakers and speaker drivers but a lack of
power. Moreover, if the volume is turned up too high, the amplifier saturates and generates parasite signals
that may damage the tweeter. The dynamic capacity and definition of Vestia loudspeakers are sufficient
to reveal the strengths and weaknesses of whatever amplifier is connected. Your retailer will be able to
help you choose the amplifier best suited to your tastes and budget.

All Focal loudspeakers are covered by warranty drawn up by the official Focal distributor in your country.
