YOUR NEW SPEAKERS Break-In Although Paradigm Monitor Series 7 speakers sound great "out of the carton," they will sound even better when broken in. Allow them to operate for several hours before you listen critically. High-frequency drivers use ferro-fluid that can thicken at temperatures below 10° C (50° F). If your speakers have been transported or stored in the cold let them warm to room temperature before use. Cleaning Do not use a strong or abrasive cleaner on your speakers. Clean them with a damp soft cloth, but do not get them wet. Do not place wet objects, such as drinking glasses or potted plants, on top of the speakers. If allowed to soak in, even a small amount of water may permanently damage the speaker enclosure. Rubber Feet and Optional Spikes On floorstanding models, the speaker base comes with rubber feet pre-installed. If you intend to use isolation spikes (included with floorstanding speakers), rubber feet must be removed. We highly recommend installing these spikes if speakers are to be place on carpet as they will improve the sound of your speakers by isolating them from the floor. The most convenient time to install these spikes is during the unpacking process. Optional Paradigm Speaker Stands We highly recommend placing Monitor Series 7 bookshelf speakers on high-performance Paradigm speaker stands (sold separately), or bookshelves to raise the high-frequency drivers to approximately ear level, thereby ensuring the best performance possible. 6

Break-In
Although Paradigm Monitor Series 7 speakers sound great “out of
the carton,” they will sound even better when broken in. Allow them to
operate for several hours before you listen critically.
High-frequency drivers use ferro-fluid that can thicken at temperatures
below 10° C (50° F). If your speakers have been transported or stored
in the cold let them warm to room temperature before use.
Cleaning
Do not use a strong or abrasive cleaner on your speakers. Clean
them with a damp soft cloth, but do not get them wet. Do not place
wet objects, such as drinking glasses or potted plants, on top of the
speakers. If allowed to soak in, even a small amount of water may
permanently damage the speaker enclosure.
Rubber Feet and Optional Spikes
On floorstanding models, the speaker base comes with rubber feet
pre-installed. If you intend to use isolation spikes
(included with
floorstanding speakers)
, rubber feet must be removed. We highly
recommend installing these spikes if speakers are to be place on
carpet as they will improve the sound of your speakers by isolating
them from the floor. The most convenient time to install these spikes
is during the unpacking process.
Optional Paradigm Speaker Stands
We highly recommend placing Monitor Series 7 bookshelf speakers
on high-performance Paradigm speaker stands
(sold separately)
, or
bookshelves to raise the high-frequency drivers to approximately ear
level, thereby ensuring the best performance possible.
