Unpacking & Set-Up - Classe Audio P-101 Owner's Manual

UNPACKING & SET-UP
Your CLASSÉ P-101 power amplifier is packed in high density, semi-rigid foam placed in a
special cardboard box. To remove the unit, open and spread all the top flaps of the box and by its
sides, lift out the entire unit and put it on a large flat surface. Take it out of the plastic bag and
inspect the unit for any concealed damage. Apart from this owner's manual, please ensure the
following has also been included:
1) Detachable linecord
2) Allen key for top plate
Please report any damage or missing parts to your dealer as soon as possible.
Place the P-101 at or near its final set-up position, allowing 8 inches at the rear for tightening
the speaker output connectors. For optimum sonic performance, we recommend the optional
REFERENCE A.C. LINECORD
The power transformer in the P-101 is located at the front-center of the unit. Ideally, a few
feet should separate this area from components which potentially could pick up hum. These include
preamplifiers, turntables, and interconnect cables. In terms of providing adequate airspace for
cooling, a good rule of thumb is to allow 6 inches above and 3 inches on each side of the unit.
Check the Serial Number sticker on the back of the unit for the correct operating voltage.
The P-101 has only one fuse, the rating of which should be as follows:
