4 The Sapphire XL Thank you for your order and congratulations on becoming the owner of an ACI speaker system. These fine speakers will provide you with many years of listening pleasure! ACI speakers are designed to offer extremely high value and performance.
5 systematically engineering and refining the Sapphire XL to optimize performance. Please note the following factors: Frequency Response: For a speaker to be considered “accurate” it must have a smooth frequency response that is free of major dips, peaks, troughs or plateaus.
6 Using Your Speakers If the rest of your system does not work properly or is not correctly connected you will not get the best performance from your system. To eliminate problems we recommend the following: I. Use the finest associa ted components you can afford.
7 clipping? Volume knob placement does NOT indicate much. Some receivers reach full output well before 12:00 on the dial. Use of the loudness button, bass boost and treble boost can all drive the receiver and then the speaker into distortion at fairly low levels.
8 Speaker Grills Your Sapphire XLs are supplied with cloth covered grills which enhance the appearance of your speakers and provide some protection for the drive units. To protect the drivers we recommend leaving the grills in place most of the time. However, for the most critical listening we suggest removing the grills.
9 • Place speakers as far as possible from other furniture and room boundaries. Keeping the mids and tweeters away from the floor is particularly important. For stereo use the Sapphire XLs are designed to sound best when the optional Sound Anchors or Atlantis 24-26” stands are used.
10 • Stereo subwoofers will usually yield the smoothest bass response when they are placed asymmetrically in the room. A good way to start is with one in or very near a room corner and the other subwoofer about 1/3 of the way along a wall. • Experiment with the phase of your subwoofers relative to your Sapphire XLs.
11 Speaker Break-In ******Important !!! Allow at least 60 to 70 hours of playing time before your new ACI speakers will sound their best. The adhesives and materials used in manufacturing must stretch and flex properly before a speaker will sound its best.
