Installation
The C41 can be placed upright on a table or shelf, standing
on its four 1 inch high feet. The four feet may be removed
from the bottom of the C41 when it is custom installed as
outlined below. The four feet together with the mounting
screws should be retained for possible future use if the C41
is removed from the custom installation and used free
standing. It also can be custom installed in a piece of furni-
ture or cabinet of your choice. The required panel cutout,
ventilation cutout and unit dimensions are shown.
Always provide adequate ventilation for your C41. Cool
operation ensures the longest possible operating life for
any electronic in-
strument. Do not
install the C41 di-
rectly above a heat
generating compo-
nent such as a high
powered amplifier.
If all the compo-
nents are installed
in a single cabinet,
a quiet running
ventilation fan can
be a definite asset
in maintaining all
the system compo-
nents at the coolest
possible operating
temperature.
A custom cabi-
net installation
should provide the
following mini-
mum spacing di-
mensions for cool
operation. Allow at
least 2 inches (5.08
cm) above the top,
2 inches (5.08cm)
below the bottom
and 1 inch (2.54
cm) on each side
of the Control
Center, so that air-
flow is not ob-
structed. Allow 20
inches (50.8 cm)
depth behind the
front panel. Allow
