> CONTENTS Standards Applied INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Martin Audio CS265, a sub-bass system designed to be used with the C115 and C516 Contractor Series loudspeakers. It incorporates two powerful 6.5" (165mm) drive units in an ultra-compact enclosure.
> CONTENTS AMPLIFICATION The CS265 is designed to be used with professional power amplifiers capable of producing 100-200W per channel into 4 ohms: Care should be taken to avoid amplifier clipping. It is important to understand that a low power amplifier driven into clipping is more likely to damage a loudspeaker than a higher power amplifier used within its ratings.
CS265 and C115 or C516 satellites, whilst maintaining a nominal overall impedance above 4 ohms. The configuration 1 x CS265 with 2 x C516 is not advisable unless the amplifier is capable of 2 ohm operation.
