Installation
Caution: The MC602 Amplifier weight is 155 pounds
(70.31 kilograms). It requires two or more persons
to safely handle when moving the amplifier.
The MC602 can be placed upright on a table or shelf,
standing on its four feet. The
four feet may be removed
from the bottom of the
MC602 when it is custom in-
stalled as outlined below. The
four feet together with the
mounting screws should be
retained for possible future
use if the MC602 is removed
from the custom installation
and used free standing. It also
can be custom installed in a
piece of furniture or cabinet of
your choice. The required
panel cutout, ventilation cut-
out and unit dimensions are
shown.
Always provide adequate
ventilation for your MC602.
Cool operation ensures the
longest possible operating life
for any electronic instrument.
Do not install the MC602 di-
rectly above a heat generating
component such as a high
powered amplifier. If all the
components are installed in a
single cabinet, a quiet running
ventilation fan can be a defi-
nite asset in maintaining all
the system components at the
coolest possible operating
temperature.
A custom cabinet installa-
tion should provide the fol-
lowing minimum spacing di-
mensions for cool operation.
Allow at least 6 inches (15.24
cm) above the top, 2 inches
(3.81cm) below the bottom
and 1 inch (2.54 cm) on each
side of the amplifier, so that
airflow is not obstructed. Al-
low 22 inches (55.88 cm)
depth behind the front panel.
