Proprietary technology and high quality manufacturing will allow you to enjoy the most natural and accurate music reproduction for many years. The advice offered in this manual is aimed at helping you maximize and maintain peak performance, and therefore, your listening satisfaction. Please take the time to read all of the instructions contained in this manual to make certain your system is properly installed and functioning correctly. BREAK-IN PERIOD We strongly advise that you resist the temptation to play the athena TECHNOLOGIES® speakers to their full capabilities until they have been properly broken in. This process should last approximately 50 to 100 hours of music playback. This can be easily be done by putting your compact disc player on Repeat mode, while playing a CD with a wide dynamic range at average room volume listening levels. athena TECHNOLOGIES® COMPANY BACKGROUND athena TECHNOLOGIES® is the newest division of Audio Products International Corp., known throughout the industry as “API”. A Canadian company founded in 1975, The API factory is a modern 165,000 square foot research, development and manufacturing facility located in Toronto, Canada. API is one of the largest speaker manufacturers in the world, distributing products to over 60 countries worldwide. A talented research and development team utilizes advanced computer-based design and sophisticated measurement techniques in its ongoing quest for new and better acoustic technologies. This research is based upon the years of pioneering psycho-acoustic research developed in conjunction with the Canadian “National Research Council” (NRC), to create speakers that achieve high performance in typical home listening environments. Extensive research into every aspect of the speaker is analyzed and evaluated before the design stage begins, a concept that we refer to as a holistic design approach. This method guarantees that the finest components and materials are made and tested with sophisticated manufacturing and quality control techniques to ensure exceptional performance that is superior to speakers costing several times their price. AMPLIFIER REQUIREMENTS All athena TECHNOLOGIES® speakers are designed to be extremely efficient. The AS-O6 is designed to be 8 ohm compatible allowing playback on almost any amplifier or receiver on the market. Most amplifiers with a power rating of 20-100 watts per channel will effectively operate the athena TECHNOLOGIES® AS-O6 speakers. Warning: If an amplifier or receiver is over-driven, the resulting distortion is actually many times greater than its rated power. Over-driven amplifier distortion is called “Clipping”, easily identified by its fuzzy, distorted sound, and can damage any speaker. The volume control of most amplifiers and receivers is a logarithmic type, which means that full power may be reached with the volume control set at as little as the halfway point. Operating the loudness, treble, or bass controls increases power output well beyond rated levels. The warranty on your speakers is therefore void if the voice coils are burned or damaged as a result of overpowering or clipping. CABINET CARE Great care and craftsmanship have gone into the construction and finish of the cabinet. Periodically use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust or fingerprints. Do not use paper towel or other abrasive materials as it may damage the finish. SPEAKER CONNECTIONS Caution: * Turn off all power in your audio/video system before proceeding with your installation. Not doing so could result in potential damage to the system. CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS On the rear of your athena TECHNOLOGIES® AS-O6 speakers are red and black connectors. Using standard speaker wire, connect the speakers one at a time, and start your process at the Receiver. Connect the speaker wire from the positive (RED +) terminal on the receiver to the positive (RED+) terminal on the speaker. Connect the negative (BLACK-) terminal on the receiver to the negative (BLACK-) terminal on the speaker. To connect the wire to the speaker, completely push the appropriate terminal in, and insert the wire through the hole that appears on the stem of the gold plated terminal. Release ...
