Cary Audio Design 7.25 - Manual (Page 9)

INTRODUCTION
DO NOT expose the Model 7.250 to high temperatures, humidity, steam, smoke, dampness
or excessive dust. Avoid installing the Model 7.250 near radiators and other heat-producing
appliances.
DO NOT install the Model 7.250 near unshielded TV or FM antennas, cable TV decoders, or other
RF-emitting devices that might cause interference.
DO NOT place the Model 7.250 on a thick rug or carpet, or cover the ventilation holes in the
chassis, as this might prevent proper cooling.
DO NOT place the Model 7.250 on a windowsill or any location exposed to direct sunlight.
DO NOT stack the Model 7.250 directly above heat-producing equipment such as another
power amplifier.
Power Requirements
The Model 7.250 power amplifier is designed to operate from residential or commercial AC current
mains. The voltage is 117/234 Volts AC @ 50/60 Hz.
Cables
The speaker cables from the output posts of the Model 7.250 power amplifier to the speaker
system can be any length, as your speaker set-up requires. Select speaker cables of sufficient
size to preserve the outstanding performance capabilities of your Model
7.250 power amplifier. Heavy gauge #14 wire is suitable for distances up to 10 feet, #12 for 25
feet. Most audio dealers will have proper speaker cable in stock for this purpose. Consult your
Authorized Cary Audio Design dealer for advice about wire.
Interconnects
Signal input connections are made via the input jack on the rear of the Model 7.250 power
amplifier, either single-ended or balanced. The interconnect cables from the output of the
processor can be any convenient length your installation set-up requires. The choice of a high
quality interconnect cable is important. Once again, your audio dealer will have the proper cables in
stock for this purpose.
WARNING
 Do not touch the speaker output binding posts during normal operation. You
may be shocked. Do not short-circuit the speaker output binding posts.
Damage may occur or the fuse may blow. Do not parallel or “bridge” the
speaker output binding posts as this will damage the amplifier.
