Initial setup
Burning-in your loudspeakers
Your newly unpacked Coltrane Supreme 2
loudspeakers need considerable playing time in
order to reach their optimum performance.
1. Connect the loudspeakers to your system
2. Put the CD in your CD player or use the files on the USB drive
3. Choose track 1 and set it on repeat
4. Set the volume to a moderate level
We recommended the use of the burn-in track (CD/USB) to
speed up this process. Due to the high-tech materials used in the
drivers, Coltrane Supreme 2 may sound a bit harsh at first.
Aer approximately 50 hours of playing your loudspeakers will
sound much better. Aer about 200 hours of playing, your
system will be optimised; the sound will be more open, detailed
and display more natural musical warmth.
Please allow the audio to run for a minimum of 24 hours
before adjusting the placement of the loudspeakers in your
listening room.
