Bi/Tri Wiring
Improvements can be heard through separating the energy from each filter in the
crossover. Cables vary in construction but a good quality cable should be low in
impedance, inductance and capacitance. Do not use cables that act as additional
crossover components. Experimentation is crucial in this situation and a cable that
works well in one situation with a given amplifier may not always perform as well when
one of these variables are changed.
Terminals
Wilson Benesch recommends the use of 8mm ring or spade connector cable
terminations. A spanner is provided to tighten up the rhodium plated nuts. Please be
careful to not over tighten the terminals as this could result in damage to the
surrounding materials. The terminals will also except banana plugs.
Spikes
The spikes are supplied installed so great care should be taken when handling these
systems. By careful tests you can adjust the speaker both in terms of toe in and in terms
of vertical angle. Should you wish to adjust either of these factors you should arrange
for an assistant to work with you. The position of the tweeter has been designed to
function best for listeners seated in conventional relaxed seating positions. If required,
for other situations such as listeners on higher seating or standing, the speakers can be
tilted back so as to incline the tweeter.
Magnet Precautions
The motors used in all Wilson Benesch speakers are built from the most powerful
magnetic material in the world, Nd.Fe.B. Do not bring any metallic objects or sensitive
electronic, electromagnetic or mechanical systems into close proximity of these
devices. This includes pace makers or other critical devices. The company cannot
accept responsibility for any damage or injury caused to any such systems as a result of
accidental exposure. Extreme care must be taken with all Wilson Benesch Isobaric
speakers as the driver motor is exposed in these systems.
Running In Time (70 hours)
Like anything of good quality a period of running in tends to see improvements in
performance. The speaker cabinet requires time to settle in to its surroundings. Climatic
and humidity variations will take time to adjust to and until these changes have been
made the speaker will not perform at its best. The drivers require time to bed in
physically and relax materially.
