CI TAT ION Introduction Thank you for selecting the Citation 5.2 Front Channel Speaker as part of your audio system. It has been carefully designed to deliver the best possible sonic performance for both home theater and critical audio applications. In order to obtain the maximum enjoyment from your new speaker, please take a few minutes to read the information contained in this manual. This brief investment of time will yield major dividends by making certain that your new speaker is properly installed and optimized for the specifics of your system. Welcome to the Citation family. We wish you many years of listening pleasure! Lti NV' Description The Citation 5.2 is an audiophile-quality, two driver, two-way loudspeaker, intended primarily for front channel (left, center, right) placement in a home theater system or critical listening environment. Additional pairs may be used for surround channel reproduction (right side, right back, left back, left side) in installations where customer preference is to achieve a highly localized surround field. A major goal of the Citation 5.2's design is to provide wide, flat response characteristics with low distortion and high output capability. The use of a midbass/ midrange driver with a large voice coil permits greater power handling capability, while a carefully tuned precision crossover system and detailed attention to the interplay of the drivers and cabinet deliver exceptional performance. 4
