SELECTING A PLACEMENT
SITE FOR THE GXR2
Like any high-fi delity component, the GXR2 will last much
longer if it is given adequate ventilation for proper cool-
ing. When installing the GXR2 in a cabinet, be sure that
the cabinet's rear is open to receive fresh air in order to
provide proper cooling. If the cabinet's design does not
accommodate an open rear, install two small "boxer fans"
to provide continuous airfl ow into and out of the cabinet.
Place the GXR2 so it has at least seven inches of free air
space above it. If the receiver is located on a carpeted sur-
face, place a board under the receiver's feet. Do not block
the ventilation holes on the top and bottom of the GXR2.
CAUTION!
When using low-impedance speaker
loads (less than 8 ohms Nominal)
you must use boxer fans as shown.
Make sure that there is a minimum
of 7" of free air space above the
amplifi er and 3" on each side for
proper ventilation..
Allow a minimum of 2" of depth
behind unit to accommodate cables
and connectors.

3. Replace all four screws, fastening the rack mount
panel to the chassis.
Note: Do not over tighten the screws.
