IMPORTANT PRODUCT INFORMATION
1. DO NOT DROP THE Transducer- The Transducer can be damaged both internally and externally if it is
dropped.
2. DO NOT EXPOSE THE Transducer TO HIGH DISTORTION LEVELS- Exposing the Transducer to high levels
of distortion may damage the unit. If the Transducer stops playing, it is likely that the built-in protection
circuit has activated. In the event this happens, turn the amplifier off for approximately 60 seconds to
allow the circuit to reset. Turn down the volume on the input signal and amplifier. Operate the system at
lower volume levels to avoid overloading the Transducer.
3. USE CAUTION WHEN INSTALLING IN FURNITURE- If using this Transducer on a chair, sofa, or couch, insure
the Transducer is protected from hitting the floor and from entanglement with any recliner components.
Severe damage may occur to the wiring.
4. CABLE PLACEMENT- Use caution when running the cable from the amplifier to the Transducer. Do not lay
the cable in high-traffic areas where tripping or entanglement may occur.
5. DO NOT CARRY THE Transducer BY THE CABLE- Carrying the Transducer by its cable can damage the
strain relief and internal wiring of the Transducer.
6. DO NOT REMOVE THE STRAIN RELIEF- Removing or altering the strain relief fitting may permanently
damage the Transducer. This fitting is carefully installed at the factory.
7. AVOID EXCESSIVE HEAT- Exposure to excessive heat will result in internal temperatures that can cause
damage to the components. -20° C (-4° F) to 45° C (113° F) . The Transducer has a protection circuit inside
that is temperature sensitive. The higher the ambient temperature, the quicker the protection circuit will
kick in. If the Transducer is not driven very hard, it can easily operate up to 60° C (140° F)
8. STORAGE- Insure the components are adequately protected when storing or transporting.
9. USE PROPER AMPLIFICATION- Insure each Transducer is powered by an amplifier that is rated at 100 - 125
watts into 4 ohms (for TST239) or 125 - 150 watts into 4 ohms (for TST329, TST429, AW339, AW439).
10. EXTERNAL VOLUME CONTROLS- Do not use with external volume controls rated at less than 100 watts.
CAUTION: Any damage caused by not following these recommended precautions will void
the warranty.
CAUTION: THIS TRANSDUCER CONTAINS AN EXTREMELY POWERFUL MAGNET. DO NOT PLACE
IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO TUBE TV MONITORS, TUBE VIDEO MONITORS, AND MAGNETIC MEDIA.
