• Grille Care: The speaker grille can be carefully removed for cleaning. Use a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove dust and debris.
• Environmental Conditions: Avoid exposing the speaker to extreme temperatures, high humidity, or direct sunlight, as these can affect its longevity and performance.

Troubleshooting

No Sound

• Ensure your audio receiver is powered on and the correct input source is selected.
• Check the volume level on your receiver and ensure it is not muted.

Distorted Sound

• Check for loose or frayed speaker wire connections at both the speaker and the receiver.
• Ensure the speaker is not placed too close to other electronic devices that may cause electromagnetic interference.

Uneven Sound or Poor Dialogue Clarity
