Placement Considerations
For your protection, review “Important Safety Instructions” and “Operating Voltage” before you install your SC-1.
Note that adequate clearance for the AC cord and connecting signal cables must be left behind your SC-1. We suggest leaving at least six inches (15 cm) of free space behind your SC-1 so all cables have sufficient room to bend without crimping or undue strain.
If possible, the SC-1 should also be placed in such a way that the power switch on the rear panel is easily accessible. This switch disconnects power from the unit completely, resulting in effective disconnection of the SC-1 from the AC mains. You might think of this as a “vacation switch,” should you wish to turn off your system completely when you will be away from home for a prolonged period of time. Just remember to turn it back on again when you return.
Your Wisdom Audio SC-1 contains many active devices and a great deal of signal processing. It will run quite warm under normal operation. It should not be placed directly on top of another component that generates significant heat, such as most power amplifiers. Do not block the vents on the sides of the unit.
Mechanical drawings are included in this manual to facilitate special installa- tions where necessary (see “Dimensions” at the end of this manual).
