Positioning the unit
< Place the processor on a level, fi rm surface.
< Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near sources of heat or damp.
< Do not place the unit on top of a power amplifi er or other source of heat.
< Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not place the unit in an enclosed space such as a bookcase or
closed cabinet unless there is good provision for ventilation. The processor is designed to run
warm during normal operation.
< Make sure the IR receiver on the front panel is unobstructed, otherwise this will impair the use
of the remote control. If line-of-sight is impractical, an infrared remote repeater can be used
with the rear panel IR connector.
< Do not place your record deck on top of this unit or any other unit which is mains supplied.
Record decks are very sensitive to the noise generated by mains power supplies which will be
heard as ‘hum’ if the record deck is too close.
Cables
We recommend the use of high quality screened analogue, digital and video cables, as inferior quality
cables will degrade the overall quality of your system. Use only cables that are designed for the
particular application as other cables will have different impedance characteristics that will degrade the
performance of your system.
< Video and digital connections must be made with cables that are designed for this purpose, i.e.,
coaxial cable with a 75Ω impedance. If substandard cables are used you may suffer from poor
picture quality such as ghost images and/or grainy picture quality (snow).
< Speaker cables should be kept short, and low-impedance wire should be used throughout to
ensure effi cient power transmission and to avoid audible distortion.
< All cables should be kept as short as is practically possible.
It is good practice when connecting your equipment to make sure that the mains power supply cabling
is kept as far away as possible from your audio and video cables, as this will provide the best sound and
picture quality. Failure to do so may result in unwanted noise in the audio and video signals.
