Placing
the
Unit
•
The
Rialto
400
is
a
small
yet
high
performance
amplifier
and
audiophile
DAC.
As
such,
the
Rialto
400
delivers
incredible
sound
performance
and
will
often
be
warm
to
the
touch
–
similar
to
the
touch
of
a
hot
cup
of
double
shot,
vanilla
latte
in
a
ceramic
mug
from
one
of
Seattle’s
9,368
coffee
shops!
•
Care
should
be
taken
in
finding
the
best
location
to
place
the
unit
for
optimal
performance.
•
The
Rialto
400
loves
speakers
and
can
be
situated
to
fit
in
with
any
speaker
set
up
from
the
most
powerful
free
‐
standing
speakers
to
the
smallest
desktop
configuration…….
