Music's Finest Conductor
The Audio Note Absolute Zero AZ-Three Loudspeaker.

INTRODUCTION.

First of all thank you for buying an Audio Note product, I hope that it will reward you
with many years of good quality music and reliable service.
As a company our main aim is to design and manufacture equipment which gives you
the maximum sonic performance for the price and to do this we use many
unconventional solutions and the AZ-Three speaker is no exception to this, so it is
important that you read this brief manual carefully, in order for you to get the best
performance and sound from your new speakers.
The AZ-Three is designed to be used without a front cover or grill, and is therefore not
supplied with one. A cover can be easily made from transparent foam and four dots of
Velcro!
As with all Audio Note speakers, no corners have been cut in terms of component and
driver quality despite the modest price of the AZ-Three, the well tried and tested AN-E
tweeter and woofer feature in the two-way line-up together with a heavy duty crossover
with air core inductors, silver plated speaker terminals and Audio Note AN-D internal
wiring.
All the Absolute Zero models share the following design features,
1.) Rear loaded folded quasi parabolic horn with rear facing mouth.
2.) Floorstanding with built-in spikes.
3.) High efficiency, and more importantly best possible dynamic power transfer
behaviour to maximise acoustic output to power input.
In our quest to deliver a compact high sensitivity speaker with good room interface we
have reinvestigated and re-evaluated all the main principles of horn loaded cabinet
designs, and this knowledge coupled with our expertise in system dispersion and
associated crossover design, has resulted in a speaker system that redefines not only
the quality-price relationship at any level which is important when making basic
comparisons to the competition, but more importantly the AZ Series speakers offer an
emotional quotient of reproduced acoustic performances that is quite in a class of its
own.
