1 | PLACEMENT GUIDELINES FOR YOUR A 23 |
|
|
Power amplifiers are usually heavier and generate more heat than other components. To avoid damage to the A 23 or other equipment and to reduce risk of fire, you must follow these guidelines:
•Place the A 23 on a separate shelf that will adequately support its weight.
•Keep it away from heat sources such as air ducts or radiators.
•Avoid placing it on carpeting or another material that might obstruct airflow into the openings in the chassis bottom.
•Leave at least 3” of space around both sides and the top. The bottom clearance can be a little less. This helps facilitate heat dissipation.
•Do not block the front of the A 23 behind closed cabinet doors during use.
•Do not stack the A 23 with other components inside a cabinet unless you use a fan to circulate and exhaust the warm air that builds up between them.
