The compactness of the Klimax makes it very easy to install and makes

possible high power multi-amplifier systems which would be impractical with

conventionally designed amplifiers of similar power, because of their size

and weight. The unique wall mount system can be used to minimise the

intrusion of the audio system into the living space while providing good

ventilation, concealing the cabling and showing off the subtle beauty of the

Klimax.

Heat

The Klimax is a very powerful amplifier. Unfortunately, despite the efficiency

of the design, it must still dissipate considerable power. It has two methods

of cooling; natural convection and forced air convection. Both require an

ample supply of air for ventilation. Natural air convection cooling operates

for all normal listening conditions by the heated air rising vertically through

the central heat exchanger.
