Tri-Vista Power Amplifier. Used properly and carefully, it should give you many years of outstanding musical reproduction. Aesthetically, the Tri-Vista Power amplifier is a perfect match for the Tri-Vista Preamplifier and Tri-Vista SACD player which are part of our 20th Anniversary series.
If connecting to a BS1363 plug, a 13 amp fuse must be used. WARNING: The Tri-Vista Power is a powerful amplifier and must necessarily supply high voltages through the loudspeaker terminals. Therefore, to avoid any possibility of an electric shock DO NOT TOUCH THE SPEAKER TERMINALS when the unit is being used.
NOTE: Unauthorised opening of the equipment will invalidate any warranty claims. There are fuses inside the Tri-Vista amplifier. In the unlikely event that one blows, refer the unit to your audio dealer. Do NOT try to replace the fuse yourself as this will invalidate the war- ranty.

CAUTION Read this BEFORE connecting your kW Amplifier - it could save your loudspeakers. Make sure the kW is turned OFF for at least five minutes before connecting or disconnecting it, or making any other changes, for example changing loudspeaker cables. Turning the kW OFF will protect your loudspeakers from the destructive power of an accidental 5000 watt peak.

At Musical Fidelity, we treat the kW with extreme respect. When we change interconnects, or do any form of maintenance, we ALWAYS TURN IT OFF at least five minutes before touching anything.
