GUIDELINES

Before you integrate the Showcase Amplifier into your system, review the following guidelines to choose the location for the com- ponent. This will facilitate a clean, trouble-free installation.

The Showcase Amplifier requires at least two inches (5 cm) of clearance on each side and at least two inches (5 cm) of clearance above and below the component to provide adequate ventilation.

The Showcase Amplifier does not require any type of special rack or cabinet for installation. For the dimensions of your amplifier see Specifications, on page 17.

Place the amplifier as close to the loudspeakers as possible and keep the loudspeaker cable length to a minimum. Loudspeaker cable adds impedance to the load the amplifier must drive, regard- less of the cable’s gauge. Krell amplifiers drive the lowest imped- ances with ease, but long loudspeaker cables reduce the maximum power that is delivered to the loudspeakers.

Krell recommends operating the Showcase Amplifier from a dedi- cated 15-amp AC power line. Please contact your Krell dealer, dis- tributor, or Krell before using any devices designed to alter or stabi- lize the AC power for the Showcase Amplifier.
