MOON by Simaudio

Introduction

Thank you for selecting the 

MOON 860A v2

 Dual-Mono Power 

Amplifier as a part of your music system. This component 
has been designed to offer State-of-the-Art high-end 
performance in an elegant package, hallmarks on which 
Simaudio has made its reputation. We have been building 
high-performance audio equipment for almost 4 decades, 
and the know how gained through our cumulative experience 
is an important reason why MOON products are so musically 
satisfying.

Your new amplifier is a true Dual-mono design, whereby 
each channel operates completely independent of the other. 
The performance of your

 860A v2

 will continue to improve 

during the first 300 hours of listening. This is the result 
of a “break-in” period required for the numerous high quality 
electronic parts used throughout this amplifier.

Before setting up your new 

MOON 860A v2

, we encourage you 

to please read this manual thoroughly to properly acquaint 
yourself with its features. We hope you enjoy listening 
to the 

MOON 860A v2

 Dual-Mono Power Amplifier as much 

as the pride we have taken in creating this fine audio product. 
We understand the power and emotion of music and build 
our products with the goal of faithfully capturing these elusive 
qualities.
