VOICING There are six pre-defined voicings that serve as fine tone controls, enabling you to modify the frequency balance to suit the situation and your personal taste. • Music 1 dampens the mid-range to adjust for recordings that may sound too harsh. Music 2 dampens further still.
MAINTENANCE One of the factors that sets the Model C Music System apart from any other audio system in the world is that its high gloss lacquer finish is exactly the same as that used on the finest Steinway pianos.
CHANGE OF LOCATION Earlier in this owner’s manual we mentioned that your Model C Music System will need to be re-calibrated by your Steinway Lyngdorf certified installer if you re-arrange the furnishings in your listening room or change your favourite listening position. Your local installer will be happy to perform a new RoomPerfect™ measurement cyclus.
Extremely loud music have the potential to cause damage to the human auditory system. The human percep- tion of loudness is linked to the level of distortion and because the Steinway Lyngdorf Model C Music System is capable of reproducing very high sound pressure levels without any audible distortion, there is a risk that you may expose your ears to sound levels that are higher than you realise.
