The serial number for your power amplifier is found on the rear of the unit. Please note and record this number on the page entitled Important Safety Instructions for your future reference.

The operating voltage of your AMP5 is 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz.

There are no user-serviceable parts within the unit. Please refer any problems to an authorized Classé service center.

The amplifier can easily be powered by a normal 15 or 20-ampere AC mains line. If other devices are also powered from the same AC line, their additional power consumption should be taken into account.

Your new Classé power amplifier will deliver outstanding performance immediately. However, you should expect to hear it improve somewhat as it reaches its normal operating temperatures and its various components “breakin.” It has been our experience that the greatest changes occur within the first 72 hours, as the amplifier reaches thermal equilibrium and the capacitors fully form. After this initial break-in period, the performance of your new amplifier should remain quite consistent for years to come.

Please take a few minutes to review this manual, and to familiarize yourself with your new amplifier. We understand that you are anxious to plug everything in and get started. However, reading this manual and following the advice it gives will ensure that you get all the benefits you deserve from having purchased such a fine piece of equipment.
