Amplifier Positioning
Placing the amplifier can have a large impact on performance and longevity. Please
take the following guidelines into consideration.
• Ensure that the unit is in a well-ventilated area that provides adequate cooling.
• Do not block the cooling vents located on both sides of the unit.
• Do not place the unit on carpeting or any similar material.
• Do not install the unit near a source of heat, or in an extremely humid or wet
location.
• If the installation lacks good air flow (such as solid cabinet doors or
wallmounted racks), it may be necessary to create ventilation to allow outside
air into the space.
• When placing on a cabinet shelf, position the unit with all feet resting on a
solid, level surface.
• Allow a minimum of 5” of free air space above the unit.
• Allow a minimum of 3” of free air space on either side of the unit (does not
apply to rack mounting).
• Allow a minimum of 2” of depth behind unit to accommodate cables and
connectors
