Using this handbook

This handbook has been designed to give you all the information
you need to install, connect, set up and use the Arcam A90
integrated amplifier or the P90 power amplifier. The A90
amplifier is described first, then the P90. The CR-389 remote
control handset supplied with the A90 integrated amplifier is
also described.
Your amplifier(s) may have been installed and set up by an
authorised Arcam dealer. In this case, you may wish to go
directly to the sections describing the use of this equipment.

Safety

Safety guidelines are set out on the inside front cover of this
handbook.
Many of these items are common sense precautions, but for
your own safety, and to ensure that you do not damage the unit,
we strongly recommend that you read them.
