  • Page 5: Proprietary Aga Technology

    Proprietary AGA Technology The Classico Series was designed from the outset to deliver the exceptional performance AGA has become famous for while presenting a more traditional look. This makes it easy to incorporate our Classico series in practically any environment. All of the technology used in AGA products was specifically developed by Anthony Gallo and cannot be found in any other loudspeakers.
  • Page 6 CDT 3™ Tweeter: The Classico CL-C uses our patented CDT Cylindrical Diaphragm Transducer (CDT 3) for high-frequency reproduction. On its own, the CDT 3, with its cylindrically shaped high-frequency diaphragm, delivers smooth treble response across an amazing 300-degree range! Once it's built into the Classico models, it provides a full 180°...
  • Page 7: General Guidelines For Placing Your Classico Cl-C

    No matter which placement option you choose, please keep the Classico CL-C at least two inches from the wall or surface behind it. Sonics: In cinema (and many television) sound tracks, the center channel is primarily tasked with delivering up to 85% of the dialogue and 65% of the special effects.
  • Page 8 Although the CL-C can be mounted at any reasonable height, integration (and therefore immersion and believability) of the audio and video will be maximized if the CL-C is positioned with its tweeter near to (or aimed at) ear height in the seated position. Placement of the Left and Right Front Speakers: If the setting lends itself, try positioning the left and right front speakers at the opposite ends of the base of an equilateral triangle whose tip is at the prime listening position (Figure 2).

    Installation Unpacking and Inspection Each Classico CL-C and its accompanying owners' manual are packaged together in a single carton. Carefully inspect them immediately after unpacking. If you note any concerns or shipping damage, please contact your dealer. Do not install or use your CL-C if it appears to be damaged.
  • Page 11: Connecting Your Classico Cl-C

    Connecting Your Classico CL-C Caution: Failure to turn off the receiver or amplifier and unplug it from the power outlet before connecting your speakers may cause damage to your system. You should always turn the receiver or amplifier off before making or changing any connections.

    Crossover Frequency: If the electronics allow you to choose the crossover frequency for the speakers, start between 80 and 100 Hz for your Classico CL-C. Listen to well-recorded information with good bass content and evaluate the deep bass, mid-bass, and the...
  • Page 13 You may want to try experimenting with various crossover frequencies (within the range of 80 Hz to 120 Hz) to get the best sonics and dynamics in your room. We recommend keeping the system crossover below 120 Hz, unless you are using an AGA CLS-10 or CLS-12 subwoofer.
  • Page 14: Breaking In Your Cl-C

    Breaking in Your CL-C Your new Gallo loudspeakers require a short period of operating time (a “break-in” period) to develop their full sound potential. The break-in period requires approximately 50 hours of operation, although you can expect to hear a marked increase in performance within the first 20 hours.
