Unpacking
Each Master Reference Subwoofer shipping crate measures 26 in. (66 cm) wide x 32 in. (81.3 cm) high x 35 in. (88.9 cm) deep and contains one Master Reference Subwoofer. The combined weight of the crate and subwoofer is 494 lb. (224.5 kg). Each Master Reference Subwoofer is 18.8 in. (47.8 cm) wide x 20.1 in. (51.1 cm) high x 28.5 in. (72.4 cm) deep, and weighs 396 lb. (180 kg). Krell recommends that you have four people to safely lift the subwoofer to its place in the listening area. Two people are needed to remove the shipping crate top from the base.
The shipping crate is specially constructed to open safely and easily. Inside, the subwoofer rests on the reinforced base of the crate. The crate top is fastened to the base with Phillips head screws. The only tools you need to remove the sub- woofer from the crate are a Phillips head screwdriver and a flat blade screwdriver. The steps below provide procedures for unpacking the Master Reference Subwoofer.
To Unpack the Master Reference Subwoofer:
1.Locate the gold screws at the bottom of the shipping crate.
2.Completely remove all screws.
3.Insert the head of a flat blade screwdriver between the crate top and base, just enough to loosen the top.
1 person needed
4.With one person grasping each end of the shipping crate, pull steadily straight up. The crate top will slowly slide up and off. Set aside.
2 people needed
Do not remove the plastic wrapping from the unit at this time.
