Unpacking Your Ultra Amplifier

All Emotiva amplifiers are double boxed to survive the rigors of long distance shipping and arrive to you undamaged. The outer box may show wear and tear, but this is no cause for alarm. The outer box’s purpose is to protect the inner box. If the inner looks heavily damaged, and you are concerned about damage to the amplifier, please call Emotiva Technical Support at 877‐366‐8324 (877‐EMO‐Tech).

Inside the laminated inner box, the amplifier is securely seated between to two reinforced pieces of high‐density impact foam. At first glance, the cardboard backing on the foam may give the appearance of a third box, but it is easily lifted to reveal the amplifier, which is wrapped in static free plastic. The plastic sheeting is tucked underneath the amplifier and securely taped. It is recommended that the plastic sheeting be removed after the amp is lifted out from the box.

The bottom piece of foam is molded to fit tightly against the amplifier, but there is a recessed area on each side, allowing you to get your hands under the amplifier and lift it out of the box.

Note: These amplifiers are HEAVY! Lift with your legs!

Inventory

Included with your amplifier should be an IEC Class 1, 2 prong power cord, and this User’s Guide.

Emotiva amplifiers are double insulated and do not require a grounded plug. Much care has been taken to make sure that your amplifier is safe, completely shielded, insulated and grounded.

It is important to save all the packing materials and the box in case your amplifier ever needs to be moved or shipped for servicing.
