IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hear-

ing loss. Individuals vary considerable in susceptibility to noise-induced

hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to

sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government's

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) have specified the

permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart.

According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits

could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially danger-

ous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all

persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure

levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. Ear

plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when

operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if ex-

posure is in excess of the limits set forth here.

LIMITED 5 YEAR WARRANTY

AVANTONE GAUSS 7's are warranted by Avantone Pro to be free from

defects in materials and workmanship for the period of 5 YEARS to the

original purchaser. In the event of such defects, the Avantone Pro product

will be repaired without charge or, at our option, replaced with a new one

if delivered to Avantone Pro prepaid, together with a copy of the sales slip

or other proof of purchase date. The warranty excludes problems due to

normal wear, abuse, shipping damage or failure to use the product in ac-

cordance with the specifications.

All speaker systems are vulnerable to damage from sustained amplifier

clipping. This can be described as a distortion of the signal caused by the

amplifier running out of headroom. Heat will then be generated in the

voice coil of the driver beyond the heat handling capabilities of wire and

glue. At some point the voice coil will burn, causing the speaker to sound

very distorted; eventually the driver will stop working.

All parts and labor are covered under this Limited Warranty. However, if it

is determined by AVANTONE PRO that the voice coil was burned due to

sustained amplifier clipping, we reserve the right to charge the customer

for the cost of the repair, since this is considered abuse.

Avantone Pro shall not be liable for damages based upon inconvenience,

loss of use of the product, loss of time, interrupted operation or com-

mercial loss or any other damages, whether incidental, consequential, or

otherwise. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have

other rights, which will vary from state to state.

This warranty is not transferable.

INTRODUCTION

Classics never die — Avantone is proud to bring Gauss back to the world

with the Gauss 7 reference monitor.

Decades after the disappearance of the Gauss Speaker Company, the line

has returned with a proper (low-end) bang. Gauss 7 mixes the old-school

snap of vintage near-field monitors, with the bandwidth and frequency

response of new-school monitors.

We at Avantone can't wait for you to hear the Gauss 7, and we're certain

you'll be blown away.

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

1. Balanced XLR Input: This input accepts a BALANCED male XLR plug.

2. Balanced TRS Input: This input accepts a balanced TRS ¼" male plug.

3. Gain: This variable control adjusts the sensitivity of the signal that ap-

pears at the input.

NOTE: When the signal appearing at the input is too hot,

the amplifier can overload causing distortion and possible

damage to the speaker. If overload occurs, decrease the in-

put level by turning the knob counter-clockwise a few clicks.

4. Acoustic Placement: This switch cuts bass frequencies down by either

-4dB or -2dB to correct for boundry bass issues when the monitor has

been placed near a wall or corner.

-4dB - In corner: If your monitors are setup in the corner of a

room, then make sure you are on this setting.

-2dB - Close to wall: If your speakers are between 2-4 feet

from a wall, then make sure you are on this setting.

0dB - Middle of room: If your monitors are setup almost

perfectly in the middle of a room (or well beyond any walls if

in a large space), then make sure you are on this setting.

5. High Trim: This switch cuts or boosts high frequencies by ± 2dB.

6. Power Switch: This switch engages power for the unit.

7. AC Input: The AC inlet accepts standard IEC320 C14 cables. The inte-

grated fuse tray should have the correct fuse value installed as indicated

on the rear panel for the AC voltage being applied.

QUICK START GUIDE

Connect the output of your source to the input of the Gauss 7.

Turn Gain down all the way.

While playing audio from the source, adjust the Gain on each Gauss

7 accordingly.

NOTE: Using a decibel meter (or an app on your mobile de-

vice) can help with calibration between each Gauss 7, or

multiple sets of monitors!
