OPERATING VOLTAGE
Steinway Lyngdorf amplifiers must be connected to the mains power system only.
Note: it is of utmost importance that the mains voltage switch is set appropriately. Turning the
Model A1/A2 on with the incorrect voltage setting will cause serious damage to the amplifier.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
Steinway Lyngdorf amplifiers do not have built-in ventilation, nor do they need any special cooling
systems for heat dissipation. When mounting amplifiers in a rack, never arrange more than three
directly atop each other without any spacing. A minimum of one unit of spacing between each stack of
three amplifiers is recommended.
When installing the amplifiers in an open cabinet or elsewhere without rack mounts, keep a minimum
clearance of one inch on all sides. Do not install the amplifiers in an environment that will expose
them to excessive heat.
CABLE CONNECTIONS
Cables and Plugs
Use only the power cables included with the amplifier when connecting it to the mains. For your home
theater system, use only mains cables and power plugs approved by Steinway Lyngdorf. Using other
cable and/or plug types will void the warranty and may cause damage to the system.
Connecting
For cabling between the processor and amplifiers, please use RJ45 to RJ45 B standard cables.
•
For cable lengths less than 1 meter, use CAT5E/shielded CAT6 cable.
•
For cable lengths in excess of 1 meter, use double-shielded CAT5E cables.
•
All RJ45 connectors should be shielded.
Please refer to the wiring diagram supplied by Steinway Lyngdorf to determine which cables you
need. Poor quality cables may violate safety/ EMC regulations as well as cause significant noise and
interference. Use only cables and connectors approved by Steinway Lyngdorf.
