10) Caring For Your In-Wall Speakers

The two most common ways that in-wall speakers are permanently damaged:

1) Not enough power at higher volumes.

2) Too much power at higher volumes.

Contrary to conventional wisdom, far more speakers are damaged as a result of underpower-

ing, than by overpowering. When a receiver runs out of power, it still tries to reproduce the musical

signal by "clipping" the waveform. At loud volumes, this clipping introduces gross amounts of distor-

tion to the speaker, eventually destroying it. If the sound from your in-wall speakers starts to sound

distorted, turn down the volume.

Having plenty of reserve power will help your speakers reproduce dynamic contrasts and quick

transients of music much more effectively. But you do have to exercise good judgement; too much

power will also permanently damage a speaker. Again, if you hear distortion, turn the volume down.
