As are all Allnic Audio products, the T-1500 is fully RoHS
(EU Reduction of Hazardous Substances regulation)
compliant in construction and materials.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX?
Please check that the shipping box contains the
following:
One (1) Allnic T-1500 300B SET stereo
integrated amplifier
One (1) IEC type power cord
One (1) Owner’s Manual
Note:
1)
The T-1500 ships with the tubes installed.
2)
The T-1500 will work with most IEC type
aftermarket power cords. Of course, only you
can determine the power cord that works most
synergistically with the T-1500 in your system.
3)
Be sure the T-1500 is labeled for the AC voltage
of your location. If it is not, please contact
Hammertone Audio.
We advise that you keep the boxes and other packing
materials that your T-1500 came in. It will be useful if
you sell your T-1500 or in the unlikely event you need
to ship it for service.
SAFETY
Remove ALL protective cushioning material
inside the tube chimneys before operation.
The tube chimneys should contain NOTHING
except the tubes.
Disconnect the power cord by pulling the plug,
not the cable.
Do not attempt any repairs. Do not remove the
unit’s chassis cover without specific
authorization from Hammertone Audio.
Keep the power cord away from heat sources
Keep the unit away from liquids – do not allow
any liquid to enter the interior of the unit.
When the unit is moved from a cold to a warm
environment, allow sufficient time for any
condensation to evaporate before plugging the T-
1500 into an AC connection.
Do not attempt any repairs.
See the notes on “Location, Location, Location”.
CLEANING
A. Chassis and glass
Use only a soft, lint-free cloth, dampened slightly with water
only (NO cleaning fluids!), to clean the faceplate, chassis and
tube chimneys of the T-1500.
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 T-1500
needs to be placed on a solid stand in a location that provides
good air circulation around, above and below the stereo
amplifier.
DO NOT cover the top of the T-1500.
DO NOT place the unit on carpet or foam.
DO NOT subject the unit to knocks and shocks as you
move it around. This advice is meant particularly for
those who may want to place the T-1500 on some kind
of after-market isolation feet or similar devices.
Dropping one side of the T-1500, or the whole of the
unit, is not a good thing to do.
DO NOT place the unit near a strong light or heat source.
DO NOT place anything heavy on the unit.
DO NOT allow rubber or vinyl materials to rest on the
chassis for long periods of time. This could discolour the
metal.
DO place the unit on a shelf or stand that is stable and
not subject to vibration or sudden shock.
DO consider using a high quality power cord, inter-
connects and speaker cables. The T-1500 is a highly
sensitive piece of electronic designed for neutrality and
will output what you put into it.
DO try to place T-1500 away from major sources
and potential receivers of RFI and EMI. Though
well shielded, the T-1500 will function best away
from large power transformers and other sources
of such interference and from other equipment
that could be susceptible to such forms of
interference.
