nstallation As is the case with any high-power amplifier, the MF2000 series ampli- fiers dissipate a significant amount of heat. Provision must be made for adequate ventilation. Mount the unit on a flat, hard surface, taking care that the ventilation holes in the bottom are unobstructed. Maintain at least four inches of clearance above the unit, and at least three inches on the sides.

Physical location and cable "dress" can be an important factor in mini- mizing hum pickup. The installation should situate the preamplifier well away from the power amplifier, and power (ac mains) cords should be dressed to remain at least 4" (100mm) away from input/output cables.
