ADCOM GTP-860 OWNER’S MANUAL | 5

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your decision to purchase the ADCOM GTP-860 tuner-preamplifier. The GTP-860 provides
Dolby Digital and DTS decoding with 7.1 output channels, as well as a 5.1 analog bypass and the RDS radio data
system. These features and ADCOM’s legendary quality provide the heart of your cutting-edge home theater. You
have made a wise choice that will reward you for years to come with exceptionally accurate and musical sound
reproduction. To realize the full potential of your new preamplifier, and before making any connections to it,
please read these operating and installation instructions thoroughly.

UNPACKING THE GTP-860

Before your new ADCOM tuner-preamplifier left our factory, it was carefully inspected for physical imperfections
and tested for all electrical parameters as a routine part of ADCOM’s systematic quality control. This, along with
full operational and mechanical testing, should ensure a product flawless in both appearance and performance.
After you have unpacked the GTP-860, inspect it for physical damage. Save the shipping carton and all packing
material as they are intended to reduce the possibility of transportation damage should the preamplifier ever
need to be shipped again. In the unlikely event damage has occurred, notify your dealer immediately and request
the name of the carrier so a written claim to cover shipping damages can be initiated. THE RIGHT TO A CLAIM
AGAINST A PUBLIC CARRIER CAN BE FORFEITED IF THE CARRIER IS NOT NOTIFIED PROMPTLY IN WRITING AND IF
THE SHIPPING CARTON AND PACKING MATERIALS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION BY THE CARRIER. SAVE ALL
PACKING MATERIALS UNTIL THE CLAIM HAS BEEN SETTLED.
