It is recommended that the Cin

equipment be plugged into a dedicated 20-amp circuit with an
isolated ground.

Disconnect all live power cords before making connections to the

remote gain.

Keep all power cords away from all signal cables to prevent

humming from induced noise.

Choose reliable signal cables cords (Earthquake Sound also

specializes in high-performance RCA cables and patches).

All speaker wires that are ran through the walls should be twisted

type to reduce potential hum noise pick up.

Label both ends of all wires with the corresponding room

location.

It is best to use a grounded electrical outlet to power the
