Running-in the loudspeakers
The moving parts of a newly
manufactured Dynaudio loudspeaker
have been acoustically checked after
production, but nevertheless are not as
exible as they need to be for optimum
results to be realised. The higher the
quality of any driver system, the more
demanding the loudspeaker will be
regarding time for running-in the system.
A newly unpacked Dynaudio
loudspeaker therefore requires several
weeks of running/playing to reach its
optimum performance capability. After
that period, a couple of minutes before
every listening session will be helpful to
“warm up” the loudspeakers.
Power rating
Due to the construction and the driver
technology, Dynaudio loudspeakers can
be driven with very high power levels.
With a high quality amplier delivering
undistorted signals, the speaker
can achieve high levels without any
compromises in sound quality.
Attention must be given to ampliers
with very low power and adjustable
tone controls or switches. These types
may soon exceed their own performance
limits and may send distorted output
signals to the speakers, compromising
even high quality technology.
Distorted output signals
Distorted output signals from
ampliers that are too weak, defective
or overloaded may damage the
loudspeakers.
►
Use high quality ampliers only and
run loudspeakers and ampliers
within specied power ratings.
Any damage caused under such
circumstances is not covered by the
Dynaudio warranty and is easily avoided
in the rst place by consulting your
Dynaudio dealer for advice regarding the
choice of amplier.
