Unpacking before installation
All shipping containers have been specially designed to protect their contents and special
care has been taken to prevent damage under normal shipping conditions. Mishandling
should be evident upon inspection of the shipping container. If shipping damage is found
after visual inspection, take care not to destroy the evidence. If necessary, document the
damage with photographs and contact the carrier immediately.
Caution:
On reception, carefully remove your new Bravo 2.4 from its packing carton and
examine it closely for signs of shipping damage. It is recommended to save all original
packing cartons and crates to protect your amplifier from damage should you wish to store
it or ship it for after-sales service.
Installation and Set up
Three-way binding posts provide output to the speaker system (4 or 8 ohm connections).
Power Requirements: The Bravo 2.4 is designed to operate from the AC mains (house
current) and is pre-set in the factory according to local supply of the import region. A
standard IEC AC power socket with a built-in fuse is provided on the back chassis panel.
Caution:
There is a power on-off knob located on the left of the Bravo front panel.
When it is at Power On position, the output tubes will light up.
Power On Operation
Your new amplifier is ready for operation after the speaker cables, interconnect cables
and tubes have been correctly installed.
We recommended extreme high quality silver cables for speaker, interconnect, and power
connections. Please ask your local dealer for additional information.
Features

Running-In Period
The tubes, capacitors and the output transformers take approximately 100 hours of
music playing to fully settle in for peak performance.
Small imperfections in the tube
surfaces will ‘boil off’ during the break in period as well.
