How do I clean my speakers?
Just use a dust free cloth or a soft brush to remove the 
dust from your speakers. We recommend a specialty 
cloth (available at the Xtatic shop at www.martinlogan.
com) that cleans your speakers better than anything else 
we have tried. Do not spray any kind of cleaning 
agent on or in close proximity to the ATF element.
What size amplifier should I use? 
We recommend an amplifier with 100 watts per 
channel for most applications. Probably less would 
be adequate when used in home theater where a 
subwoofer is employed. Our hybrid designs will perform 
well with either a tube or transistorized amplifier, and 
will reveal the sonic character of either type. Dealers 
are always the best source for information when 
purchasing additional audio equipment.
Could you suggest a list of suitable electronics 
and cables that would be ideal for MartinLogan 
speakers? 
The area of electronics and cable choice is probably 
the most common type of question that we receive. 
It is also the most subjective. We have repeatedly 
found that brands that work well in one setup will drive 
someone else nuts in another. We use many brands 
with great success. Again, we have no favorites; we 
use electronics and cables quite interchangeably. We 
would suggest listening to a number of brands—and 
above all else—trust your ears. Dealers are always 
the best source for information when purchasing 
additional audio equipment.
Is there likely to be any interaction between my 
speakers and the television in my Audio/Video 
system? 
Fresco i is not shielded. It is intended for use with a flat 
screen, non-CRT television.

performance of my speakers? 
We recommend that you not place any loudspeaker 
in direct sunlight. The ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun 
can cause deterioration of grill cloth, speaker cones, etc. 
Small exposures to UV will not cause a problem. In 
general, the filtering of UV rays through glass will greatly 
reduce the negative effects.
