Care and Maintenance

Other than the internal fuses, there are no user serviceable parts inside your Odyssey amplifier or 
preamplifier. Thus, the top cover should only be opened for checking these fuses. Any other check 
up and work should be left to authorized service personnel. As for checking and changing internal 
fuses, see       

Always turn off the unit before opening the top cover.

Your Odyssey case is made of brushed aluminum. Since the finish is anodized instead of painted, 
very minimal care and cleaning is required. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the case. 
Under no circumstance should you use dripping water or fluids, or excessively wet cloths, since 
drops of fluid can enter the inside of the case and cause serious damage to your unit. This would 
also void your warranty. 

Don’t use chemical solvents to clean your case.

Even though your case is made of aluminum, the fact is that aluminum is still a very soft material, 
and prone to scratch rather easily. Avoid touching your Odyssey case with any sharp or pointy 
objects. All service work and possible upgrades are provided and performed by either Odyssey 
Designs or by authorized service personnel only. We truly strive to give you the best possible 
service,   since   we   know   the   power   of   a   satisfied   customer   and   the   resulting   “word   of   mouth” 
advertising very well. We also take great pride in providing the best service and excellence. Our 
fast and reliable service offers you a high degree of peace of mind.

Call us for a cost -free maintenance check -up of your Odyssey unit.
