Placement
Before you install an Evolution 505 into your system, please follow the guidelines
in this section to select a location for your component. This will facilitate a clean,
trouble-free installation.
The Evolution 505 does not require a special rack or cabinet for installation. The
preamplifier chassis measures 17.3 in. (43.8 cm) wide, 6 in. (15.3 cm) high, and
17.3 in. (43.8 cm) deep.
Place the Evolution 505 on a firm, level surface, away from excessive heat, humid-
ity or moisture. The Evolution 505 requires at least two inches (5 cm) of clearance
on each side, and at least two inches (5 cm) of clearance above the component to
provide adequate ventilation. Installation inside cabinetry may require additional
ventilation.
Do not place the Evolution 505 near hum sensitive components such as preampli-
fier phono stages or turntables. Although the Evolution 505 is well shielded, plac-
ing it near these components could create interference and cause hum.
Note
The Evolution 505 incorporates an advanced suspension system and does not require addi-
tional mass coupling or isolation. You may experiment with feet or cones as long as they
are not permanently affixed to the unit. Any unauthorized modifications to the unit or elec-
tronics will void the warranty.
IMPORTANT
Do not attach enhancement accessories such as rings, mats, or dampers to individ-
ual discs. These accessories may interfere with the disc transport, resulting in erratic
playback and/or poor sound.
AC Power Guidelines
The Evolution 505 has superb regulation and does not require a dedicated AC cir-
cuit. Avoid connections through extension cords or multiple AC adapters. High
quality 15 amp AC strips are acceptable. The use of AC line conditioning devices
or filters may be used if they are grounded and meet or exceed the unit’s power
supply rating of 100 VA.
IMPORTANT
When the internal line fuse needs to be replaced, contact your dealer, distributor or
Krell. The line fuse is not intended to be replaced by the user.
