1. For additional connection information, refer to the

owner’s manual(s) for any component(s) connected to

the MA7000 Integrated Amplifier.

2. The Main AC Power going to the MA7000 and any

other McIntosh Component(s) should not be applied

until all the system components are connected together.

Failure to do so could result in malfunctioning of some

or all of the system’s normal operations. When the

MA7000 and other McIntosh Components are in their

Standby Power Off Mode, the Microprocessor’s Circuit-

ry inside each component is active and communication

is occurring between them.
