Owners Notes Low B-112 “Flat Wound” and Full Range Systems9Series III FW and FR Manual.pubWarranty and Service Notes:It’s most important to get the speaker operating properly, so all the world will know how great it sounds! But we’reunable to subsidize destructive behavior by replacing for free anything you can find a way to damage. If, forexample, your amplifier fails, and sends something hideous through the speaker, or you like to pound on yourstrings at full volume to massage your back, please, I beg of you, don’t send me back woofers whose cones are intatters with the expectation that they will be replaced for free, because this type of horrible damage cannot beconstrued as a “defect” in the product you were sold.Forms of abuse not covered:Blown Speakers: A woofer which was shipped to you with a defect of some kind will not show signs of physicaldestruction when it fails. If, for example, you can see a “creasing” around the circumference of the cone, yourspeaker has been overdriven, exposed to a DC component, or been fed a distorted signal by an overdriven amplifier.This is not a defective woofer. If your voice coil has been burned to carbon, please don’t bother to make your casethat it was received with a defect.Pounding on your strings with your palm. Yes, it sounds cool, but that’s not the point. Power handling decreasesdrastically below 31 Hz (B), and string pounding can send near-DC through the poor thing. If pounding is an integralpart of your playing style, you shouldn’t be using a vented cabinet, but would be better off with a sealed-boxsystem, such as an SVT.Burnt voice coil: The best way to destroy a voice coil is to continue to play at a higher volume than either the amplifieror speaker will handle. If either is pushed beyond its limits, damage to the speaker could occur. Listen to your systemcarefully. Inordinate distortion, regardless of the source, is a sign that you’re pushing the envelope, and coulddamage your amp, speakers, or both.Drop/smash. No explanation necessary.Please remember if you have any trouble, that we’re mostly interested in solving your problem as quickly aspossible, and saving whatever money can be saved by either or both of us!I hope this information makes it possible for you to get the most from your speaker.
