Placement

The Power

2

amplifier may be placed on a shelf, or in a

standard 19" equipment rack using the optional rack ears

and hardware. Proper ventilation is required so the

Power2 will not overheat. Two inches of open space

above and below the Power2 is sufficent for proper ven-

tilation. 

Note:

Due to the placement of the Power

2

power switch

on the rear panel, do not install the Power

2

in a wooden

box or similar enclosure where access to the power

switch is blocked or inconvenient. This also required for

proper ventiliation.

Ideally, the Power

2

should be placed in close proximity to

the NHT Controller or surround processor.  Minimizing

cable lengths reduces the chance of noise pickup.
