QUESTIONS AND ANSWER
Q. Should I leave the KSAon at all times?
A. Because of Sustained Plateau Bias, the KSAcan be left on at all times without fear of damage, excessive heat or excessive power consumption. The
KSA amplifier however, is designed to be turned On/Off, and can do so
without degradation. The amplifier will work at full performance within minutes of
Q. When I push the power button on the front of the KSA, the amplifier doesn't turn on. What should I do?
A. Check the input and output connections, then retry the amplifier. Check the circuit breaker on the back of the unit and reset it if necessary. Consult the protection circuitry section of this manual for more detailed trouble- shooting procedures.
Q. WhenI turn the amplifier on there is a loud hum through the speakers. There wasnever a hum before the KSAwas in the system. What should I do?
A. Often when a new component is introduced into an audio system a hum may become present. This is often caused by a ground loop in the system or by defective cabling. Check your cables to and from the amplifier. If the hum
persists, contact your dealer or the KRELLstaff for assistance.
Q. Can I use special audio power cords on the KSA?
A. You can experiment with special power cords as long as they are grounded on both ends, meet the amplifier's 20 amp power requirement, and are safety approved by organizations like CSAor UL. The use of them, however, is not recommended without first consulting your dealer or the KRELLfactory.
Q. Myspeakers only have one set of binding posts. Which set of binding posts should I use on the amplifier?
A. The two binding posts for each channel on the KSAare the same point
electrically. You can use either the top set of posts or the bottom set. They sound and work the same.
