AYRE MX-R - Manual (Page 3)

Connections and
Installation
The Ayre MX-R is easy to connect and use. The following
guidelines will ensure that the installation goes smoothly.
Location
Do not stack the Ayre MX-R directly with
other components, as this may restrict the
airflow or induce hum into the audio
circuitry.
A good location for your mono power amplifier is on the floor
near your loudspeaker, in an open-backed cabinet, or on a shelf.
The Ayre MX-R produces a moderate amount of heat during
operation. Be sure to provide at least three inches (75 mm) of
air space above the amplifier and two inches (50 mm) on each
side to allow for proper airflow.
It is important to maintain an adequate supply of
airflow to avoid overheating the amplifier.
AC Power
The MX-R may be plugged directly into an unswitched wall
outlet. Although proprietary RFI (radio-frequency interference)
filtering is built into the amplifier, in some situations a
high-current power-line filter (such as those offered by Ayre)
may provide additional sonic benefits.
