Care and Cleaning
To maintain speaker appearance, we recommend wiping them down with a
clean damp soft cloth. To clean dust from the grille cloth, use a vacuum with a
brush attachment.
Features
Proprietar y Aluminized Fiberglass matrix cone woofers are the hear t
of the Destination Audio F300 Series speakers. This special material is
stiff, lightweight and has self-damping properties which helps provide a
virtually uncolored audio reproduction. These woofers have a powerful
magnet that gives them high excursion capabilities; this helps the F300
Series speakers provide extended dynamics and frequency response not typically
foundin speakersoftheirsize.To avoid anyinterference with tube-typetelevisions
and monitors, the F300C is video shielded using additional opposing magnets and
steel cups to cancel an stray magnetic elds..
A high quality nano-silk dome tweeter is used for high frequencies in the F300
Seriesspeakers.Higherpowerhandlingisachievedthroughtheuseofmagneticliquid
cooling in the tweeter. To protect the tweeter against being over driven, a Polyswitch
(a DC current limiting device) is incorporated in the crossover network.
Each F300 Series speaker model features an extensive crossover network. The use

irregularities, and maximizes the ability of each driver in their respective band of
frequencies. Large 5-way binding posts ensure a good, solid electrical connection to
these crossover networks.
The F300 Series speakers cabinets are constructed of medium density berboard
because of its inert properties, thereby preventing sound coloration due to cabinet
diffraction. The thickness of the front bafes also prevents excess acoustic radiation.
Attaching Speaker Wires
When using a banana jack to attach speaker wires to the binding post terminals,
remove the black and red plastic protective inserts from the terminals. To do this,
loosen the binding nut from the terminal by turning the nut counter-clockwise
until the nut is completely removed from the terminal. Remove the plastic
inserts by pulling them straight out, then replace the nut to the terminal and
turn clockwise. Insert the banana jack into the hole provided in the top of the
terminal, and then continue to tighten the nut until secure. Repeat for the other
speaker wire(s) as necessary.
