HOW TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR VALUABLE SPEAKERS
All HECO loudspeakers are designed and built for optimum sound reproduction with the tone controls in
the central position – i.e. with unaltered or “linear” amplifier output. Higher settings of the tone controls
increase the amount of energy supplied to the loudspeakers. This may lead to speaker damage, at high
volumes.
USE THE VOLUME CONTROL WITH CARE!
If the output of your amplifier is significantly higher than the rated power handling capacity of your
speakers extremely high volumes can physically destroy your speakers. This doesn’t actually happen
often but you should be aware that it is possible.
Weak amplifiers with low output ratings can actually be more dangerous for your speakers at medium
volumes. This sounds strange but the reason is quite simple: Weak amplifiers get overloaded much
faster than powerful ones and this causes measurable and audible distortion, which is more dangerous
for loudspeakers than anything else.
Always turn the volume down
immediately as soon as you hear distortion! If you like listening to loud
music make sure that your amplifier can deliver at least as much power as the speakers’ power-handling
rating.
MAINTENANCE
The lacquered surface is best cleaned with a mild household cleaner. On no account use furniture polish
or similar products on these surfaces. You should not use a microfibre cloth either as this may damage
the surface.
