Installation & Placement
The Nēo 340i Integrated Amplifier is both powerful
and heavy. It requires reasonable ventilation to
maintain an optimum and consistent operating
temperature, especially since it will radiate heat
when driven hard. Consequently, it should be placed
in a location with empty space around it for proper
heat dissipation. You should never place another
component on top of this integrated amplifier. As
well, it should be placed on a solid level surface. You
should avoid placing it near a heat source or inside a
closed cabinet that is not well ventilated as this
could compromise the amplifier’s performance and
reliability. The 340i uses a large toroidal
transformer in its power supply; even though it is
well shielded, you should not place this integrated
amplifier too close to source components sensitive
to EMI, such as turntables, phono preamplifiers and
CD Players. Finally, y
ou should never place another
component directly on top of this integrated
amplifier.
If you intend to use the Nēo 340i’s USB input
connection with a Windows-based computer,
you will need to install our USB HD driver,
which can be downloaded from the support
section of our website..
Note: Apple-based computers don’t require
this driver.
