INSTALLATION CONSIdERATIONS
pLACEmENT
Place the SC12-30 on a flat, level surface like a table or shelf. It should be placed
upright so that its weight rests on the unit’s four feet. PLACING THE WEIGHT OF
THE AMPLIFIER ON THE REAR OR FRONT PANEL FOR EVEN AN INSTANT WILL
RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE AMPLIFIER’S CONNECTORS AND CONTROLS.
The SC12-30, like any hi-fi component, will last much longer if it is given
adequate ventilation for proper cooling. When installing the SC12-30 in a cabinet,
be sure that the rear of the cabinet is open to fresh air to provide proper cooling
(see Figure 10). If the cabinet’s design will not accommodate an open rear, install
two small “boxer fans” to provide continuous air flow into and out of the cabinet
(see Figure 11). Place the SC12-30 so that there is at least 5” of free air space
above the chassis. If the amplifier is located on a carpeted surface, place a
board under the amplifier’s feet. Do not block the ventilation holes on the top and
bottom of the SC12-30.
The SC12-30 is equipped with a digital power transformer. This transformer
generates a powerful magnetic field which could induce hum in a turntable
(particularly a turntable equipped with a moving coil cartridge). Do not place a
turntable directly above or directly adjacent to the SC12-30.
Allow a minimum of 2” of depth behind unit
to accommodate cables and connectors.
If the cabinet rear is not open to fresh air or if you’re
using low impedance loads, install two “boxer fans”
to provide continuous air flow into and out of the
cabinet.
Boxer Fan (55 CFM)
directly centered 2”
behind the Amplifier.
Boxer Fan (55 CFM)
directly centered 5” on
top of the Amplifier.
Make sure that there is a minimum of 5” of free air
space above the amplifier for proper ventilation.
Because the surface of the amplifier may get hot, it
is recommended that a baffle or screen be placed
above the amplifier to block hand access to the
top surface of the SC12-30.
