Where to Put It
The MCD12000 can be placed upright on a table or
shelf, standing on its four feet. It also can be custom
installed in a piece of furniture or cabinet.
Always provide adequate ventilation for your
MCD12000. Cool operation ensures the longest
possible operating life for any electronic instrument.
Do not install the MCD12000 directly above a heat
generating component such as a high-powered
amplifier. If all the components are installed in a
single cabinet, a quiet running ventilation fan can be
a definite asset in maintaining all the system compo-
nents at the coolest possible operating temperature.
A custom cabinet installation should provide the
following minimum spacing dimensions for cool
operation:
• 6 inches (15.3cm) above the top
• 5/8 inches (1.6cm) below the bottom
• 2 inches (5.1cm) on each side of the MCD12000
so that airflow is not obstructed
• 18 inches (45.7cm) depth behind the front panel
• 2 inches (5.1cm) in front for handle clearance
