General Information
1. For additional connection information, refer to the
owner's manual(s) for any component(s) connected
to the XR50 Loudspeaker.
2. The design of XR50 Loudspeaker took into ac-
count the acoustic characteristics of the Front Panel
Grille and it should be attached to the Loudspeaker
for the best sonic performance.
3. If there is an obvious lack of high, mid or low
frequencies after extended periods of overdrive,
the Protection Device(s) may have activated. These
devices will automatically reset when the volume
level is greatly reduced until the output of the af-
fected Loudspeaker Driver(s) returns to
normal.
4. When discarding the unit, comply with
local rules or regulations. Batteries should
never be thrown away or incinerated but
disposed of in accordance with the local
regulations concerning battery disposal.
