Before you integrate the S–1500 Multi-channel Amplifier into your system, review the following guidelines to choose the location for the component. This will facilitate a clean, trouble-free installation.
The S–1500 amplifier requires at least two inches (5 cm) of clear- ance on each side, and at least two inches (5 cm) of clearance above and below the component to provide adequate ventilation.
The S–1500 amplifier does not require any type of special rack or cabinet for installation. For the dimensions of your amplifier see Specifications, on page 21.
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 that the amplifier must drive, regardless of the cable’s gauge. Krell amplifiers drive the lowest impedances with ease, but long loudspeaker cables reduce the maximum power that is delivered to the loudspeakers.
Krell recommends operating the S–1500 amplifier from a dedicat- ed 15-amp AC power line. Please contact your Krell dealer, distrib- utor, or Krell before using any devices designed to alter or stabilize the AC power for the S–1500.
