•
Place your amplifier on a stable support. We recommend you use a solid hi-
fi rack. In our experience, you will achieve good results with racks fitted with
MDF shelves. Glass, metal or stone being less suitable for use as hi-fi
equipment supports. Never stack the 855 directly on other items of
equipment. 800-Series products are not suitable for installation in
enclosures such as 19" racks or cabinets. The on/off switch at the rear of the
unit must always be accessible.
•
Take some time to organize your cabling. Try to keep power cables away
from interconnect and speaker cables. Shielded power cords can
significantly reduce the transfer of interference to your signal cables.
•
Make sure that all system components are operated from one mains socket.
You can achieve this by connecting all system components through a
single, high quality mains distribution board. The lower the resistance
between signal sources and amplifiers, the less the audio signal will be
polluted and the better your hi-fi system will sound. Connecting your
components with the correct mains polarity is also important. Use a phase
finder to determine which pin is life. Mark the appropriate side of the power
outlet. The marked pin on the IEC power receptacle on the 855 should
connect to the positive conductor.
•
Cleaning and maintenance. To clean your amplifier, use a soft cloth. To
remove stubborn dirt from the front panel, use a proprietary glass cleaner.
Do not use water! Never use solvents or white spirit. These will cause
irreparable damage to the surface of the unit.
