5.4 Preventing hearing damage
Caution
Avoid beeing too close to operating speakers. This equipment is capable of delivering sound
pressure levels in excess of 90 dB SPL, which may cause permanent hearing damage.
5.5 Protecting the Speakers / Operating Safety
SEQUENZA 5 speakers may only be used in combination with a K&F SystemRack.
In general, audio signals must not be overdriven. This may be caused by mixing consoles,
equalizers, effect equipment, etc. and should be indicated on this equipment. When a power
amplifier is overloaded at the output (clipping), then the amplifier activates a clipping
warning signal. In any case, the signal must be reduced as soon as it sounds unnaturally
distorted.
For damage caused by
• overloading the speakers
• using the speakers without K&F SystemRack
we do not assume warranty and excludes liability for possible consequential damage.
The following signals may damage the speakers:
• permanent high-level signals with high frequency and continuous noise from feedback.
• permanently distorted high-level signals.
• noises, which occur when the amplifier is on while equipment is being connected,
disconnected or switched on.
Do not install devices in any of the following places:
• where the devices are permanently exposed to direct sunlight.
• where the devices are exposed to high moisture or rain.
• where the devices are exposed to strong vibrations and dust.
Damage caused by the speakers' magnetic fields
Speakers are permanently surrounded by a magnetic field, even when they are not
connected. Therefore, during transport and placement of the speakers, it is important to
ensure that there is always approx. 1 m between the speakers and magnetic data media and
computer/video monitors.
