UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION

Unpacking the Momentum MxV Integrated Amplifier from its case

While the Momentum MxV Integrated Amplifier is still in its case, please move it to a location

near the place where it will be installed. Remove all jewelry including watches, rings and belts

from your person to avoid damage to the exterior of the integrated amplifier during the removal

and installation.

The finish of the Momentum MxV Integrated Amplifier is durable but can be damaged. To protect

its pristine surface, we strongly suggest wearing the supplied white lifting gloves when handling

to avoid abrasion, fingerprints caused by oils from skin, etc. See Operation: Maintenance for

instructions on cleaning.

Installation requirements

This component's dense metal chassis makes it much heavier than most other integrated

amplifiers, so make sure the surface that will support this component can safely hold its weight.

Adequate ventilation must be provided for the amplifier. There should be at least 3 inches of

clearance on each side and 3 inches of clearance at the top. The bottom vents must not be

obstructed by thick carpet, dust, etc. We recommend that the integrated amplifier be installed

in an open equipment rack to assure proper ventilation. The amplifier may be installed in a closed

cabinet or in an equipment closet, but the space must be designed with substantial ventilation at

top and bottom; active ventilation (i.e., powered fans) is preferred.

Important: Instead of using a traditional cable, the

Momentum MxV Integrated Amplifier uses a specially made

connector located near the right front edge that joins the

audio chassis (top) and the power supply chassis (bottom). To

assemble the amplifier, place the power supply chassis in the

Momentum MxV Integrated Amplifier's final location. Carefully

place the larger audio chassis on top of the power supply

chassis. Ensure the bottom-plate connector makes solid

contact with the audio chassis top-plate connector.

If plugging the Momentum MxV Integrated Amplifier into a

power strip or power conditioner, make sure it is a high-quality unit that does not alter ground

connections or insert current-limiting elements in series with the AC mains signal.

If you need to return the Momentum MxV Integrated Amplifier for service

If you should need to return the for unit service, be sure to use the original box and materials

for shipment. Before you ship the unit, unplug it from the wall and let it cool down for 2 hours.

To protect the finish during shipping, rewrap the amplifier in the protective packaging in which it

was originally shipped. Make sure the amplifier is completely cool. Wrapping the amplifier when it

is warm will cause the plastic to leech into the amplifier's surface and will permanently damage

the finish.
