Unpacking and Placement
unpacking your amplifier Carefully unpack your power amplier according to the supplied instructions,
and remove all accessories from the carton. Please take care when lifting the
amplier, as it is quite heavy.
Important! Keep all packing materials for future transport of your
Classé amplifier. Shipping your new component in
anything other than its purpose-designed packing material
may result in damage that is not covered by the warranty.
placement Many installations will utilize an equipment rack, although a shelf, a traditional
cabinet or the oor near the speaker(s) are acceptable alternatives. In any
case, take care to position it well away from source components and preamp/
processors,whichmaybesensitivetotheamplier’selectromagneticelds.
Note that adequate clearance for the AC cord and connecting cables
must be left behind the amplier. We suggest leaving six inches (15 cm)
of free space behind your power amplier to allow all cables sucient
room to bend without crimping or undue strain.
ventilation Your Classé power amplier generates a certain amount of heat in the course
of normal operation. e vents on both the bottom and the top of the
amplier must be kept free from any obstruction which would reduce the ow
of air through the unit. Avoid placement on soft surfaces that would restrict
airow (such as plush carpeting).
