NOTE; Remember, you can’t equalize out major physical room anomalies.
If things sound really weird where you are, try moving you rig a few feet
and see if that helps. This may be particularly helpful on saggy stages that
bounce like a drum head. (The propellerhead term for this is
“diaphragmatic.” So says David. – LB)
YOU’RE DONE. GO PLAY.
There you have it: a quick and easy process to help you get the perfect tone
from your Eden amplifier. As previously mentioned, it make take a few
extra minutes the first few times you go through this, especially if you take
the time to experiment with all the knobs and switches, which we highly
recommend.
We are confident that the time you spend getting to know your new friend is
an important investment, one that will pay off immeasurably in Great Bass
Tone. And, after all, that’s why you bought an Eden, right?
MORE ON SPEAKERS
BREAK-IN PERIOD
We recommend that you use your CXC combo at low to moderate volume
levels for approximately ten hours before using it in a high volume situation.
This will allow the suspension components to “seat” themselves and the
speaker to break in. This is very similar in concept to breaking in the engine
of a new car. It will actually take about 24 to 50 hours of total playing time
to fully break in your speaker system. If desired, you can plug a CD player
into your amplifier and play a CD through your enclosure to accomplish this
break-in.
CONNECTIONS WITH ADDITIONAL CABINETS
It is important to keep two issues in mind when CXC combo with other
speaker cabinets: phase relationships and impedance. Proper parallel
connections require the positive and negative speaker terminals to maintain
their relationships throughout the system. This means that the positive
connection (tip on ¼ in. plugs; the red binding post) on one cabinet must
connect to the positive connection on additional cabinets. The negative
connections should be made in a similar manner. Unless you have defective
cables, ¼ in. connections make incorrect connections highly unlikely.
