UNPACKING AND SETUP

WHAT'S IN THE BOX

Packed with your S170 preamplifier you will find:

•A removable AC cable (if you wish, any IEC-standard AC cable of suitable wattage may be substituted).

•1 DC trigger cable.

• The S70 remote controller with operating manual and 9v (PP-3) battery.

•A pair of white cotton gloves—for handling your S170 during setup without fear of scratches or

fingerprints marring its finish.

• This owner's manual.

SAVE THE PACKAGING

Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your S170 arrived. Should you move or otherwise

need to transport your preamplifier, this is by far the safest container in which to do so. We've seen too

many otherwise perfect components damaged in transit for lack of a proper shipping carton, so please:

Save that box!

CHOOSING A LOCATION

We hope you will agree that the S170's finish quality and appearance earn it pride of place in any home

theater or music system. Choose a location that is well ventilated (with at least several inches to both sides

and behind), and that will provide a clear line of sight, within 25 feet/8 meters, between the preamp's front

panel and your primary listening/viewing position—this will ensure reliable infrared remote control

communications. Due to the S170's high-speed DSP hardware and high-current audio circuits it generates

a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should trouble any adjacent components. It is perfectly safe

to stack additional components atop the S170, or vice versa, but it is generally preferable (and considerably

handsomer) if the S170 stands alone. The one exception is a power-amplifier or receiver, or any other unit

that generates substantial heat: The S170 should not be stacked above or below any such component.
