OPERATIONAL NOTES
SWITCHING ON
The power switch is located on the lower right hand corner of the front panel. Push the top of the
rocker switch (1) to turn on the amplifier and the bottom of the rocker to turn off the amplifier.
With monoblocks we suggest that you turn on one amplifier first allowing about thirty seconds to pass
before powering the other one. Also, ALWAYS turn ON your preamplifier or consule FIRST and let
this settle before turning on the amplifiers.
RUNNING
It is not recommended that you leave your amplifier permanently switched on. This only wastes
electricity and tube life. Your amplifier has solid state rectification and reaches peak operating
condition in approximately 30 minutes.
TUBE LIFE
As with all tubes, their quality degrades with age. This is due to cathode emission, a natural process
found in all tubes. We recommend that you have your amplifier checked every 3-4 years, depending
on usage, usually the amplifier will require re-tubing after this time has elapsed.
