＊This speaker has been designed around the Time Domain concept.
《What is Time Domain theory?》
The theory seeks to accurately reproduce the timing of the air and sound movement exactly, as if were present in
the original recording. The difference is you feel the sense of ‘being there’ at the original sound recording. We could
only achieve this experience using our unique technology.
Time domain theory is an audio theory proposed by Hiroyuki Yoshii, the President of TIMEDOMAIN Corporation.

Safety guidelinesSafety guidelines
Caution
･The unit should be placed on a hard, flat surface. Placing the unit on an unstable surface may cause it to fall over and cause
injury.
･Do not climb on or swing from the unit. In particular, care should be exercised when children are present. The unit may fall or
break and cause injury.
Warning
･Do not open the unit as this may cause electric shock or injury. For repair or maintenance, please contact a Customer Service
Center. Do not attempt to modify the unit. This may cause fire or electric shock, and invalidate the warranty.
･Do not place the unit in the bathroom or anywhere exposed to rain. Do not use the unit in places with high humidity. This may
cause fire or electric shock. Be particularly careful when using the unit in rainy weather or when it is snowing, at the beach or near

or any small metal objects. In case any liquid or small metal objects enter the unit, fire or electric shock may result.
･Be sure to set the volume to the minimum level before turning on the power supply for connected equipment and before switching
the input source. Sudden high levels of output can cause damage to the connected speaker system.
･Even pleasant music can be a disturbance at times. To avoid disturbance in your neighborhood, enjoy your unit at an appropriate
volume. Remember that at night, even low volume carries into surrounding areas. Help to maintain a pleasant living environment.
･Always be sure to turn off the power supply for the connected equipment before connecting the speaker.
･Be careful not to tip over the stand.
