INSTRUCTIONS

 

FOR

 

USE

 

 

Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity kW Phono preamplifier. 

 

Used properly and carefully, it should give many years of outstanding musical 

reproduction. 

 

Aesthetically, the kW Phono is a perfect match for the 

kW 750 Power Amplifier, kW Hybrid Line Level Preamplifier 

and kW SACD Player. 

 

Together they form one of the finest hi-fi systems available. 

 

Dust regularly with a soft duster or soft brush, but be careful when using cleaning 

or polishing agents - they may harm the surface finish. 

 

If you have any questions about your audio system, 

please consult your dealer who is there to help and advise.
