  • Page 3: Paper Owners Manual Vs. Website

    Paper Owners Manual vs. Website: Believe it or not, much of the content in the earlier owner’s manuals was written in the early nineties, before the inter- net made information so easy to get. In updating the manuals for the Series III models, it has become clear that they could be more useful if focused squarely on practical suggestions, and less on history, philosophy, background and theoretical considerations.
  • Page 4: Placement Low B-112

    Placement Low B-112 The 112 System has rubber feet on the bottom, which implies a way to stand it up. The handle is on top. When ever possible, place your amp or other heavy object on top to help anchor your system to the floor.
  • Page 5: What Are The Acme Series Iii Neo Systems

    What are the Acme Series III Neo Systems? The Acme Low B-112 "Flat Wound” and Full Range Systems are compact, lightweight, high performance loudspeakers which, like the classic Acme Low B systems using 10” drivers, achieve superior low-end output, extension, and tran- sient response by manipulating the Thiele-Small parameters in order to optimize for these qualities at the expense of efficiency.
  • Page 6: Further Notes On Impedance And Amplification

    Further Notes on Impedance and Amplification: As with earlier Acme models, greater than average power is required. A 200 watt amplifier, which is more than adequate to power a JBL, can seem gutless when used with these speakers, the 8 ohm models in particular. Low power can obviously be a source of trouble. Even with higher-power amps, a slightly different approach to using your equipment can be helpful.
  • Page 7: On The Subject Of Handles- Pet Peeve

    On the Subject of Handles– Pet Peeve: Loudspeaker handles have been a bane of my existence, and a curse of disproportionate significance to what I consider my mission statement, which is to offer a high-performance tool for reproduction of sound. When designing a loudspeaker for optimum performance, the idea of providing a handle, or handles, for easy transport does not enter into the equation.
  • Page 8 So, having explained that, if you hear distortion, proceed as follows: Increase the volume setting on your power amp, if you have one. Compensate by decreasing the volume on your preamp. If distortion persists, increase the setting on your preamp’s volume control, and compensate by decreasing the setting on your instrument’s volume control.
