Your Plinius Anniversar y Integrated Amplifier is designed for use with high fidelit y

loudspeakers. It should not be used to operate with any other t ype of appliance or equipment.

Be cer tain that your loudspeakers can handle most of the rated output power of this

amplifier. You may find loudspeaker specifications confusing or misleading, so you

should discuss this with your audio dealer prior to purchase. As a general rule, the use of high power (200 Wat t RMS or greater) loudspeakers is recommended and

desirable. However, our experience indicates that medium to low power loudspeakers (100 to 200 Wat t RMS) are quite of ten suitable for use on this amplifier, provided the volume is maintained at a level where no distor tion is audible.

Impedance of the loudspeaker load is impor tant to ensure the rated per formance of this amplifier. If you have doubts about the impedance of your loudspeaker configuration, we recommend you speak to your Plinius dealer.
