Audio Note M10 Signature - Manual (Page 10)

Please take care when unpacking your
M10 Signature preamplifier. Choose a clean,
clear location to unpack your units. Be aware that the preamplifier and its power
supplies are extremely heavy; before attempting to unpack or lift the units, check the
weight and if necessary use more than one person so that they can be moved safely
and easily.
We recommend that you retain and carefully store all of the original packing
materials, in case transportation / shipping is required at a later date.
Select a suitable location for the units. This should be a dry, dust free and level area,
preferably shielded from direct sunlight and free from vibration. Also ensure that the
location is stable and capable of carrying the weight of the units.
A suitable mains power outlet must be close to the location; power cords must not be
pulled or stretched tightly in an attempt to reach a wall socket. If the power cords will
not easily reach the socket, choose a closer location!
Please ensure that adequate ventilation for the units is provided, and that airflow
through any ventilation slots in the casework is not restricted. We recommend a
distance of at least 20cm free space is maintained above each unit. Please also
remember that valve equipment operates at extremely high temperatures, so a
position that is inaccessible to children or animals is essential.
