Placement requirements
Owing to the substantial 27Kg weight of the K-10, this pre-amplifier should be placed on a firm,
stable and solid surface. The use of a dedicated audio stand or plinth may provide some degree of
increased performance.
Areas of high humidity, direct sunlight, exposure to flammable gas or possible exposure to liquids are
not suitable for placing the K-10 in.
This pre-amplifier is not designed to stand directly on top of other audio components or have other
audio components placed on top of it.
Feet
Four basic feet are installed onto the under-chassis of the pre-amplifier. Their purpose is to mainly
provide “finger space” while lifting the unit. Five Sorbo Gell feet are provided for use on final
installation. Typically one would place three of the feet on the left under-side area and two on the
right. This is to compensate for the extra weight of the left hand portion of the pre-amplifier. It may
be desirable to place a thin piece of grease proof paper or similar underneath each Sorbo Gell foot if
the added sticky-ness of the foot is not desired. In addition the grease proof paper may prevent
possible staining that the foot may leave behind on the component stand.
