Statement amplifiers are supplied with a Naim PowerLine mains cables. The PowerLine is
fundamental to Statement audio performance. Alternative mains cables should not be used.
N O T E . Before connecting your Statement amplifiers to the mains supply check that the mains voltage
specified on the connection panels is appropriate for your territory.
The NAC S1 and NAP S1 should ideally be connected directly to wall mounted mains outlets. If it is
necessary to use a multi-gang mains distribution block it should be of a type specifically designed
for high performance audio applications. Your local Naim retailer will be able to advise on mains
distribution blocks. If the wall mounted mains socket or distribution block incorporates isolation
switches they should remain switched-off until your Statement amplifier installation is complete.

Statement amplifiers are fitted with floor-spikes to define their mechanical interface with the
structure of the listening room and to ensure that their internal isolation systems work optimally.
The floor-spikes should be adjusted so that the amplifiers are perfectly vertical and do not rock.
The Statement spirit level included in the accessory pack is designed to aid levelling adjustment.
N O T E . Statement amplifiers are fitted with floor spike covers when shipped. Remove the covers
simply by pulling them off.
To adjust a floor-spike, first loosen its lock-nut using the supplied tommy-bar. Next turn the floor-
spike as appropriate using the tommy-bar inserted in the floor-spike through-hole. Re-tighten the
lock-nut when adjustment is complete. Use the minimum length of floor-spike needed to hold the
lock nut just above the carpet.
N O T E . If your Statement amplifiers are to be installed on a non-carpeted floor, the floor spikes should
be used in conjunction with the Naim floor protectors included in the accessory pack and adjusted so
that the tapered part of the floor-spike extends just beyond the lock nut.
