PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION
Your Plinius 8200 operates at a moderately high temperature, especially when being driven hard. The
ideal location is upon a rigid stand, or floor mounted away from direct contact with any temperature
sensitive materials or deep pile carpets. Ventilation through and around the amplifier should also be kept
unimpeded, so ensure that the heat vents (slots in the lid and base) are not covered or restricted in any
way.
The Plinius 8200 design incorporates a very high level of mechanical de-coupling of the input and output.
It can however still be influenced by acoustical feedback in the operating environment. The use of
acoustic cones, or a suitably spiked amplifier stand or table, may further enhance the performance of this
amplifier. Consult your PLINIUS
PLINIUS PLINIUS PLINIUS dealer for further advice if required.
MAINS VOLTAGE CONNECTION
Firstly, check that the mains supply voltage printed on the rear of this amplifier is similar to the mains
supply voltage in your area. If in doubt, please consult your PLINIUS
PLINIUS PLINIUS PLINIUS dealer.
Mains supply power connection is via the supplied plug-in lead. A standard IEC socket connects the
mains power at the amplifier end, while a local mains plug is required at the wall end.
The wiring code used inside all Plinius product is:
Green to Earth/Ground Green to Earth/Ground Green to Earth/Ground Green to Earth/Ground
Blue to Neutral
Blue to Neutral Blue to Neutral Blue to Neutral
Brown to Phase/Live
Brown to Phase/Live Brown to Phase/Live Brown to Phase/Live
Should a ‘local’ plug need fitting to the wall end of the lead, ensure that a suitably qualified service
technician wires the plug correctly.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT POWER UP YOUR AMPLIFIER UNTIL YOU HAVE
CONNECTED YOUR INPUT/OUTPUTS CORRECTLY FOR
YOUR SYSTEM, (AS EXPLAINED IN THE NEXT SECTION).
