CHOICE  OF  AMPLIFIER  LOCATION  AND  COOLING

The GOLDMUND TELOS 400 amplifier, as all high quality amplifiers generates a large amount
of heat when driven at high levels and must be vented properly. It is mandatory to allow a
proper cooling of the heat sinks and vents. 

If you use more than one TELOS 400 at any location, do not stack them and do not place
other equipment on or too close to them.

Due  to  its  weight,  and  to  maximize  the  effect  of  the  built-in  "Mechanical  Grounding"
construction, the TELOS 400 is better located on the floor. Other very strong supports can be
used if they offer rigid transmission to the floor.
