4 Audio Perfection Realized

General Care of Your Loudspeaker
Whenever changing speaker wires, interconnect wires, or power cords, always turn off all
equipment. To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the amplifier to rain or excessive
moisture.
Your speakers come in a high quality finish that is both attractive and durable. To clean, use
a soft, damp cloth. If your drivers become dusty, dust them with a paintbrush or a brush
vacuum attachment. Do not use a strong or abrasive cleaner.
The grille is covered in acoustic cloth. To keep your grille clear of debris, we recommend
you use a lint roller (like you would use on clothes).
Bass and Loudness Contour Controls
Do not use bass or loudness contour controls. Induction Dynamics’ subwoofers produce
very low frequencies without these controls. Use of these controls will make the bass sound
“boomy”, obscure higher frequencies, and possibly cause damage to your speakers.
S1.iw Location
The S1.iw mounts between wall studs and should be placed in accordance with the speaker’s
application (mains, surrounds, or stereo speakers).
The height of the speaker should be determined by locating the tweeter near ear level. The
tweeter reproduces high-frequency audio, which our ears perceive as most directional, so
we are most attuned to their placement and level. As you make your decision, consider
whether people will be standing or sitting in the listening area. The S1.iw may be mounted
upside down (tweeter nearest floor) to achieve the proper tweeter level with the look of a
higher mounted speaker.
