Amplifier Controls

Quick Setup

To get the ZxA1 into operation as quickly as possible, please observe the following steps and precautions:
• Make sure power switch is in the off position before plugging in power cord.
• Plug the 3-terminal IEC-standard AC cable into a grounded line receptacle. Extension cords can be
used to lengthen the AC cable as necessary but make sure that they are 3-conductor cables of the proper
gauge, and that they are properly grounded to avoid electrical hazards and extraneous noise.
• Be sure that the ZxA1 is plugged into an AC power source that is capable of supplying the correct volt-
age. If the line voltage drops too much, the built-in amplifiers won't be able to develop their rated power
and sound quality will suffer.
• Under high signal conditions, the 120V ZxA1 amplifier can draw 0.6 amps of current (0.4 amps at
230V). Be cautious of what else is plugged into the same electrical service line to avoid electrical prob-
lems and poor performance.
CAUTION: Before turning the power on, make sure that the level controls are down to avoid transients or
unexpected loud sound.
