MAGNETIC
FIELD:
!!CAUTION!!
Do
not locate
sensitive
high-gain equipment such
as
preamplifiers
or
tape
decks directly above or below the unit.
Because
this amplifier has a high power
density,
it has a strong magnetic field
,
which can induce hum into unshielded devices that are located nearby. The field
is
strongest just above and below the unit. If an equipment rack is
used,
we recommend locating the amplifier(s) in the bottom of the rack and the preamplifier
or other sensitive equipment at the top.
