User manual POLK AUDIO RM53

[. . . ] Curved cabinet shape and angled internal baffles break up standing waves for superior midrange clarity. Magnetic shielding allows safe placement near your state-of-the-art TV or video monitor with no risk of video distortion . Your Polk Audio Loudspeakers are constructed of the highest quality materials for years of trouble-free performance. [. . . ] However, damage to loudspeakers can occur when an amplifier, regardless of its wattage, is made to play at higher listening levels than its power can clearly produce. This is usually beyond the "noon or 1 o'clock" position on the volume control. Operation at this level can result in very high levels of audible distortion originating in the amplifier, which can add a harsh, gritty sound to your listening material. Contrary to popular belief, a speaker is more likely to be damaged by trying to get too much volume from a low-powered amplifier or receiver than from a high-powered one. If, after following the hookup directions, you experience difficulty, please double-check all wire connections. Should you isolate the problem to the speaker, contact the authorized Polk Audio dealer where you made your purchase, or contact Polk Audio Customer Service 800-377-7655 (M-F, 9-6 EST, US & Canada only) or via email polkcs@polkaudio.
