As with all audio electronics the power cable should be the last thing attached and
the fi rst one removed any time you hook up or remove equipment from the signal
chain. The JAE umbilical cable should never be connected or removed without
turning the XP-22 off from the rear power switch or unplugging the AC power cord.
The control can be placed on top of the power supply but for the best performance
they should be separated a little. Putting the power supply on a lower shelf works
great.
