3.4 Cooling
Under normal operation of the power amp, overheating should never be a
problem. The temperature of the cooling air will depend on the immediate
environment (e.g. an enclosed rack, direct sunlight) and on whether the front
filter is clogged. It is of course essential that while the power amp is running air
is able to circulate around it freely.
3.5 Ground Lift
The input signal ground (pin 1 of both XLR’s) is tied to the ground potential
in the mains supply. Opening the ground lift switch causes this connection
to be broken. This allows ground loops that sometimes occur in practice to
be eliminated. The ground potential of the power amp and therefore of the
loudspeaker outputs is independent of the switch setting and remains at the
ground potential of the mains supply.
Removing the mains connector ground - as often practiced - is not only illegal
but pointless too, since in practice it never produces any
improvement!
DO NOT REMOVE MAIN CONNECTOR GROUND
IT IS ILLEGAL AND DANGEROUS
