Installation precautions & user information 

This  new  M8  Preamplifier  is  designed  and  built  to  provide  trouble-free  performance,  but  as  with  all  electronic 
devices it is necessary to observe a few precautions: 

•  Heed all warnings shown on the back of the product. 

•  Only connect the M8 Preamplifier to a mains outlet having the same voltage as marked at the back of the 

unit. 

•  Always  ensure  that  when  disconnecting  and  reconnecting  your  audio  equipment  the  mains  supply  is 

switched off. 

•  Position  the  mains  lead  and  signal  interconnects  where  they  are  not  likely  to  be  walked  on  or  trapped  by 

items placed on them. 

•  Do not use near water, or place water-filled containers on the M8 Preamplifier, for example, a flower vase or 

potted plants. 

If water does spill inside, immediately pull out the mains plug from the wall socket and 

inform  your  dealer,  who  should  then  check  the  unit  before  further  use.  Entry  of  liquid  into  the  M8 
Preamplifier is dangerous, and may cause electric shock or fire hazard. 

•  Do not place the unit near direct heat sources such as radiators, direct sunlight or other equipment. 

•  Do not remove any covers or try to gain access to the inside. There are no internal adjustments or fuses you 

can 

replace 

yourself. 

Refer

service 

work 

to 

an 

authorised 

Musical 

Fidelity 

agent. 

* Note: Unauthorised opening of the equipment will invalidate any warranty claim. 

•  Dust  regularly  with  a  soft  cloth  or  soft brush  but  be  careful  when  using  cleaning  or  polishing  agents  -  they 

may harm the surface finish. 

The electronics in modern hi-fi equipment is complex and may, therefore, be adversely affected or damaged by 
lightning. For protection of the audio system during electrical storms, remove the mains plugs.  

If after-sales service is required, to help the dealer identify the M8 Preamplifier please quote the serial number 
located on the rear panel of the unit.
