Placement & Ventilation
This Plinius product may operate at a moderately high temperature, especially
during extended listening sessions. With this in mind, we recommend the following
guidelines for placement and ventilation:
•
The ideal location is upon a rigid stand, away from direct contact with any
temperature sensitive materials, furniture or deep pile carpets.
•
Ventilation through and around the amplifier should be kept unimpeded.
•
Ensure heat vents (slots in the lid) are not covered or restricted in any way.
•
Equipment racks should be of an open type with no closed side panels and no
closed front or rear panels. Ensure a minimum of 100mm clearance on all sides of
your Plinius unit to other equipment and the shelf above. If the unit is in an enclosed
cabinet, the clearance should be greater than 200mm on all sides. Ensure the space
between the chassis and shelf below the unit is unobstructed at all times.
•
When stacking separate audio components, apply the minimum clearances above,
as well as a minimum of 400mm clearance above the top unit for suitable airflow.
•
NOTE: This unit has been designed for use in moderate climates only, not for tropical
conditions.
The design of this Plinius product incorporates a very high level of mechanical
decoupling 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 dealer for further advice if required.
