CLEANING
A.
Chassis
Use only a soft, lint-free cloth dampened slightly with water only (NO cleaning fluids!) to
clean the faceplate and chassis of the H-6500 and its power supply.
B.
Connectors
You may use any good quality contact cleaner recommended for such applications to
clean the contacts from time to time, as you deem appropriate.
INITIAL SET-UP
A.
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
Like all audio products using tubes, the Allnic Audio H-6500 and its power supply need
to be placed on a solid stand in a location that provides good air circulation around both
the phono-stage and the power supply.
•
DO NOT cover the top of the H-6500 phono-stage or the ventilation slots in the
top of the power supply chassis.
•
DO NOT place the units on carpet or foam.
•
DO NOT subject the units to knocks and shocks as you move them around. This
advice is meant particularly for those who may want to place the H-6500 or its
power supply on after-market isolation feet or similar devices. Dropping one side
of either of the H-6500 units, or the whole of either unit, is not a good thing to do
and damage incurred by doing so will not be covered by warranty.
•
DO NOT place the units near a strong light or heat.
•
DO NOT place anything heavy on the units.
•
DO NOT allow rubber or vinyl materials to rest on either units’ chassis for long
periods
of time. This could discolour the metal.
•
DO place the units on a shelf or stand that is stable and not subject to vibration
or sudden shock.
•
DO consider using a high-quality power cord and inter-connects, for both inputs
and outputs. The H-6500 is a highly sensitive piece of electronic designed for
neutrality and will output what you put into it.
•
DO try to place the H-6500 and its power supply away from major sources of RFI
and EMI; though well shielded, the H-6500 units will function best away from
large power transformers and other sources of such interference.
