Unpacking Your
Mythos
Loudspeakers
Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any visible or
concealed damage is most likely to occur in handling and should be reported
at once to your Definitive Technology Dealer or to the delivery company that
delivered your loudspeakers. Save all cartons and packing material when you
have unpacked your loudspeakers. They will do the best job
of
protecting your
speakers
if
they need to be shipped or transported. Record the serial numbers
found on the rear panels
of
your speakers in the appropriate place on your
Warranty Cards and mail your Warranty Cards within
10
days
of
purchase.
Installation, Setup and Placement
Tips
• Your speakers will work well with a variety
of
electronic components.
As little
as
10 Watts (RMS) per channel will deliver adequate listening
levels in most rooms.
If
you plan to play your system at loud listening
levels, you'll be better served by more power.
• Damage to loudspeakers can occur when an amplifier, regardless
of
its
wattage, is made to play at higher listening levels than its power can
cleanly produce (usually beyond the
"1
to 2 o'clock" position on the
volume control). This can result in distortion, originating in the
amplifier.
If
you hear distortion, tum it down!
• Break-in is very important with any high-end loudspeaker, including
Definitive Technology speakers. While they sound great right out
of
the box, the sound quality
of
the speaker will change noticeably after
the speaker has been played for a length
of
time (about 20 hours).
There's no special procedure, just play 'em. Loud dynamic music
with lots
of
highs and lots
of
bass will work its magic faster.
