Installation - McIntosh MHT100 Owner's Manual

Installation

The MHT100 can be placed upright on a table or shelf,
standing on its four feet. It also can be custom installed in a
piece of furniture or cabinet of your choice. The four feet
may be removed from the bottom of the MHT100 when it
is custom installed as outlined below. The four feet to-
gether with the mounting screws should be retained for
possible future use if the MHT100 is removed from the
custom installation and used free standing. The required
panel cutout, ventila-
tion cutout and unit
dimensions are
shown.
Always provide
adequate ventilation
for your MHT100.
