Please take the time to read the 350 manual thoroughly as it incorporates many features, which will enhance its operation.

Placement

The 350 is a high-power amplifier and best results will be achieved when placed on a solid surface with adequate ventilation. DO NOT place on a carpeted floor or cover the amplifier!

Turn off associated components

This minimises the potential to damage any other components when connecting your 350 into the system.

Connect preamplifier to 350

Connect the output of your preamplifier to either the balanced (XLR) or un- balanced (RCA) inputs at the rear of the 350 and set the input configuration toggle switch at the rear to the correct position.

Try to keep all interconnect cables as far from loudspeaker cables as possible and well away from all AC mains leads.

Connect speaker cables to the left and right speaker terminals

We recommend using high quality connectors for your speaker cables, spade lugs are the preferable option as they combine a larger surface area with the possibility of a strong mechanical connection; however, high quality banana terminals are also acceptable.

Be careful to maintain channel integrity, i.e. left to left, right to right, and phase integrity, positive (+) to positive (+), negative (-) to negative (-).

Switch on preamplifier

Turn on the preamplifier and set the volume to the minimum level. Select the respective input to which your source component is connected.

Switch on 350

After checking the supply voltage compatibility with the voltage rating on the 350 rear panel, insert the power cord-set supplied into the rear of the unit and into the wall. Switch on the socket at the wall and power up the 350 using the switch on the rear panel.
