knocked over liquids (e.g. Drinks)
- no additional heat will have an impact to the unit

Rack mounting

D6 amplifier enclosures are designed to fit into a standard 19"
equipment rack or cabinet.
When specifying a rack, be sure to allow extra depth (10 cm / 4" is
usually sufficient) to accommodate the cables and connectors at the rear
of the amplifier.
When mounting amplifiers into a 19" rack cabinet, do not just rely on
fixing and supporting amplifiers by their front panels. Provide additional
support ...
- using shelves fixed to the inner sides of the cabinet
- or the mounting holes provided on the amplifier rear mounted rack
ears.
This advice is particularly important if amplifiers are being racked up for
touring use.

Please ensure, whatever the mounting or racking arrangement, that
adequate cool airflow is provided to avoid a build-up of hot air inside
the rack leading to overheating. When setting up the amplifier, do not
block or cover the rear panel air intake or the vents on the front panel
of the amplifier.
If amplifiers are installed in cabinets we recommend using additional fan
modules with front mounted filters that can be easily replaced without
opening the sealed cabinets.
