Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions & Troubleshooting 15

How do I clean my subwoofer?

Use a dust free cloth or a soft brush to clean your subwoofer.

We recommend a specialty cloth (available through the

Xtatic shop at www.martinlogan.com) that cleans better than

anything else we have tried.

Is it safe to set things on my subwoofer?

While your Dynamo 700 is designed with a durable, stain-

resistant surface, we advise you not to set anything on your

Dynamo700—especiallycontainersholdingliquids.

Is there likely to be any interaction between

my subwoofer and the television in my Audio/

Video system?

Yes. The Dynamo 700 subwoofer doesn’t use a shielded

driver. We recommend 3 feet between the Dynamo 700

subwoofer and video components that are susceptible to

magnetic fields.

Is it possible to have an interaction between

my subwoofer and other electrical devices in

my house?

Yes. When operating wirelessly this subwoofer may be

susceptible to RF interference in the 2.4GHz bandwidth

from microwave ovens and wireless devices such as WiFi

systems, video game consoles, cordless telephones, blue

tooth devices, and baby monitors. Generally, this issue

(popping noises) is easily resolved by physically separat-

ingproblematicdevicesfromoneanother—adistanceas

little as two feet will often alleviate the interference. In the

case of microwave ovens, the interference will only occur

when the microwave is operating.

Will my electric bill go 'sky high' by leaving my

subwoofer plugged in all the time?

No. The Dynamo 700, when the power switch is set to

‘Auto On’, will draw about 15 watts when idle and only

1 watts in standby mode.

Should I unplug my subwoofer during a thun-

derstorm?

Yes, or before. It's a good idea to disconnect all of your

audio/video components during stormy weather.
