3. Unpacking and Placement
After opening the top cover of the box, remove the upper layer of hard foam material.
You can then lift the Amplifier from its box cradling them with the cloth that is
underneath the chassis. Retain the cloth and all packing materials for future use.
The Integrated Amplifier may become very hot during operation. You should always
place it on support feet and leave at least 2 inches (5 cm) clearance above the
Amplifier to allow sufficient ventilation.
The Integrated Amplifier is designed to be supported by separate support feet. It
does not have support feet fixed in place. Feet can affect the sound quality
significantly. Feet must be positioned underneath each unit in direct contact with the
aluminum base plate – not the leather clad MDF covers. There are three areas
where the aluminum base plate is exposed through openings in the leather clad MDF
bottom plate. You can use either three or four feet.
After the Amplifier has been placed in its final position, it can be lifted in turn to locate
the support feet – firstly lifting the back (for 2 feet) and then the front (for 1 or 2 feet)
to be placed underneath the chassis. Adjusting their position will also affect the
sound to varying degrees, depending on the type of rack, location or interaction with
other equipment. For the most situations, the arrangement as shown in the diagram
below is a good starting point.
