The SXCD should generally be placed close to your preamplifier or integrated amplifier, thus keeping interconnect cabling between the SXCD and associated components as short as practical. This will reduce the systems susceptibility to radio frequency (RF) interference and the negative effects associated with long cables.

The SXCD is a low power electronic device. Ventilation requirements are not considered an important factor in product placement.

In the event that the SXCD is to be incorporated into custom cabinetry, please refer to the dimensional information provided in the Physical Dimensions section of the manual (Chapter 13).
