Installation Guide
A performance theater begins to take shape the moment you first pull
this unit from the box. To make the installation of the Savoy as simple
and easy as possible, please follow these steps to ensure amazing sound
performance for years to come.
As you remove the Savoy from the box, check the unit for damage that
may have occurred during shipping. AudioControl packs ‘em pretty
securely, but it’s a vicious world out there and anything can happen
between our factory in the Pacific Northwest and your installation.
Paperwork
Yes, filling out the warranty registration card is about as exciting as
cleaning out your sock drawer, but AudioControl would definitely like
the card back after you’ve hooked up the Savoy amplifier and played
with it awhile. AudioControl employees read every card, and use the
feedback you provide when designing new products or upgrading prod-
uct features.
Next, make a note of the serial number and keep it in a safe place.
(Notice the space provided on the inside cover of this manual.) In the
unlikely event that the Savoy amplifier ever needs servicing or an insur-
ance claim needs to be filed, the serial number is readily available.
Placement
The AudioControl Savoy amplifier is a very cool running amplifier
thanks to its Class H topology. However, the Savoy does need some
breathing room to operate properly. Make certain that the air vents on
the top and bottom of the amplifier casing are not blocked and have at
least ½” of air space. It is also wise to avoid placing heat sensitive com-
ponents such as CD or DVD players directly on top of the Savoy.
Power
Before simply plugging the Savoy power cord into an outlet, give con-
sideration to how the Savoy will be integrated into the system. The 3-
pronged power cord should be connected to a constant source of power
with a solid ground. Using a switched power source can cause compli-
cations in system integration, especially when the Savoy is activated by
an RF signal.
To eliminate ground loop issues, plug all of the power for the system into
a commonly grounded circuit. A surge protector can also be a good idea.
