How precise should you be? The wavelength of a 10 KHz tone is about one
inch. An error of
1
/

" will place this frequency a full 180
o
out-of-phase — just
like you had reversed the wires to one speaker. S o ideally, the speakers
should be within a quarter wave — for 10 KHz, this would be a quarter inch of
being equidistant from you.
NOTE: If your speakers do not sound balanced (left to right), the most
likely reason is that they are not equidistant from you. An error of one
just inch will ruin left/right balance.
Balance also will be ruined if the speakers are not pointed directly at you.

LINE FUSE AND VOLTAGE SELECTOR
There are a pair of line fuses inside the fuse drawer that is located on the back of the amplifier. This drawer
also has a window in it that shows the mains voltage that the amplifier uses.
To change the fuses or the mains voltage you must open
the drawer. The drawer is spring loaded and will pop
out if you release the latch that holds it.
To release the latch, you will need a small tool such as a
small screwdriver or ball point pen. Put the tool in the
notch as shown in the drawing, and push the latch
towards the voltage window. The drawer will release
and you can gently grasp it and pull it out of the amplifier.
With the drawer in your hand, you will see the fuses. You can simply pull them out of their spring clips and
replace them.
A fuse blows to protect the amplifier for a reason. Y ou should identify the cause and correct it before
replacing the fuses.
The correct fuse size is 5mm x 20mm. For 200 volt circuits, a 10 amp, slow-blow type should be used. For
100 volt circuits, a 15 amp, slow-blow type should be used.
