4 Positioning
The PREAMP I
– MK 3 has no special requirements regarding its position. You can even put the unit
in a cupboard. For reasons of better access to the various input and output sockets we recommend
you position the unit in an audio rack. Professionally designed audio racks can have a positive effect
on the music reproduction of your audio system.
IMPORTANT !
Please observe at all times.
Before you connect the unit with some other unit using a cable, please
never forget that both units must first be switched off and disconnected
from the mains power.
