The cabinet surfaces of the Point Seven are covered with a textured rubber laminate.
Clean these surfaces when necessary with a lint-free cloth dampened in warm soapy
water. To Preserve the textured finistu don't rub hard on the surface. Do not attempt
to clean the cabinet with a brush (which may damage the surface) or a sponge (which
mav leave small crumbs in the texture).
Do not attempt to clean either of the drivers.
The Point Sevens require no periodic maintenance.
Scruice
Before sending the Point Sevens in for repair, make sure they are faulty and that the
problem isn't being caused by something else in the system. Distortion
or noise may
be caused by a defective amplifier, preamp, cable, equalizer etc., or a loose
corurection in the system. Connect the Point Sevens to a system that is known to be
working properly to check whether the monitors have malfunctioned.
