Electra be user manual The Focal-JMlab guarantee only applies if the enclosed guarantee card is returned to us within 10 days of purchase. Running-in period The drivers used in the loudspeaker are complex mechanical devices and require an run-in period before they deliver their best performance. They must get adapted to the temperature and humidity conditions of their environment. This breaking-in period depends on the encountered conditions and can last several weeks.

installation Positioning The loudspeakers have been engineered to deliver the most faithful sound reproduction, whether they are used for music or home cinema. In order to enhance their performance, to guarantee a high quality of listening, sound image and tone balance, it is important to note the following basic rules. The listening area must be located at the summit of an equilateral triangle whose two other points of insertion are determined by the position of each speaker.

Home theater Choice of speakers Yours loudspeakers have been engineered to work with stereo systems as well as with home theater systems. If you already own a pair of stereo Electra Be loudspeakers and wish to purchase a complete home theater system, it is of the utmost importance that you use the central and effect loudspeakers of the same product line.
fine tune Accessories Floorstanding loud-speaker systems include four decoupling spikes and four butyl cone and could be screwed, if necessary, into the four metal inserts situated on the base of the loudspeaker. These spikes ensure a better stability for floorstanding speakers, particularly if the floor is not perfectly flat and smooth. This stability improves clarity in bass and midrange by decoupling the system from the floor and thus reducing floorborn resonances.
