Important Read this before connecting the amplifier to AC mains VA Series amplifiers are pre-configured at the factory to operate on either a 115 V or a 230 V AC mains supply. Before applying power to the unit, please check the rear panel to ensure that the version you have is correctly set for your local supply voltage. The MAINS VOLTAGE SELECTOR switch on the rear panel will show either 230 V or 115 V, as shown below. The warning sticker above the switch will confirm the factory setting.
