owner’s manual as they may cause hazards.
10. Locate the equipment for proper ventilation.
For example, the product should never be allowed
to operate while positioned on a bed, rug, sofa or
any such surface where proper ventilation is not
possible. Nor should the unit be placed in a built-
in installation such as a cabinet or armoire, etc. in
such a way as to impede the air flow. Always ensure
adequate ventilation openings - please see later
comments regarding such an installation.

appliances including other amplifiers that produce
heat.

Caution for Installation
1. Your Sherbourn amplifier can be placed on any
table or shelf. It can also be custom installed in a
rack, and/or in a piece of cabinetry or furniture of
your choice. It is however, important that if the
amplifier is going to be housed in an enclosed
environment, that you allow for adequate
ventilation. Despite the adequately sized heatsinks
built into the amplifier, it is still important that good
ventilation be provided. Do not install the amplifier
directly above another heat generating component
such as another amplifier without adequate
ventilation.
