HIGH SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL WARNING
Linn monitors are capable of generating high sound pressure levels (SPL). Your hearing can be damaged by exposure to high SPL for an extended period of time. Therefore we recommend that you use an integrating type sound level meter to measure your exposure to SPL while using these monitors, and that you limit your exposure to within that recommended by your national health authority.
It is not sufficient to rely on your own judgement concerning SPL when working with high quality monitors because your perception of SPL is dependent on the amount of distortion introduced by them. Because this distortion is very low in the Linn 328A, you can be led into believing the SPL is lower than it actually is and hence risk exposure to damaging levels.
CELLPHONE WARNING
Cellular telephones should not be placed in close proximity to this monitor due to the possibility of damage to the monitor, the cellphone, or both caused by electromagnetic interaction.
APPLICATIONS
The 328A is suitable for the most exacting, high resolution audio monitoring applications.
The unit’s compactness and
UNPACKING
Your 328A Reference Monitor comes packed in a box with the following accessories:
•one mains lead
•this manual
The 328A monitor is heavy (45 kg) and must therefore be handled using appropriate precautions to avoid the possibility of personal injury. It should always be lifted and handled by two people while unpacking or repacking and during subsequent positioning operations.
We recommend you retain the packaging for reuse in case you need to transport the unit at any time.
INSPECTION
Your 328A left the factory in perfect condition but it is possible damage may have occurred in transit. After unpacking your monitor, and before connecting to mains power or other equipment, inspect the monitor for such damage. If damage is found, immediately contact the carrier for advice on their claims procedure.
VOLTAGE SELECTION
Voltage selection is not needed. Your 328A is factory set to operate from your local mains supply. The mains lead supplied may be fitted with a fused plug according to local regulations. If this is the case, always replace this fuse with another of the same type and rating.
The 328A Reference Monitor must always be earthed when connected to mains power. Use the earthed moulded mains lead supplied. Never use an unearthed plug or adapter with this unit.
