The D-Series Power Amplifier is very easy to install and only requires three
connection types: audio source, power and loudspeakers.
Power is provided from the included 3-prong grounded electrical cord. The
amplifier accepts AC power from 115-230V, 50/60Hz.
The amplifier may be placed on a shelf or installed into an equipment rack
using the rack ears included within the box.

RACK MOUNTING
When installed in a rack, the four mounting feet on the bottom of the chassis
may be removed if needed. Save the feet in case the amplifier is ever moved
back to a shelf-mounted type of installation so that they may be re-attached.
Do not use the amplifier on a shelf or other surface without the mounting
feet being installed. They help provide ventilation space at the bottom of
the amplifier. Leave at least 2" (5cm) of clearance around the amplifier for
ventilation.
CONNECTING LOUDSPEAKERS
Loudspeakers will always connect directly to the D-Series amplifiers unless
a separate impedance matching volume control, speaker selector or similar
device is required (all sold separately). CL2 rated wire must be used when
running wire within a home's walls. The loudspeaker connectors are
designed to use up to 14ga wire.
