4 - Ethernet Jack The Ethernet jack enables connection
to either an external system controller or to a standard
home Ethernet 10/100 network switch or router port.
Control and status monitoring of the amplier using any
device with a web browser is supported via the web
server embedded in the Acurus amplier.
Feet: Heavy-duty thermoplastic rubber feet ensure good
underside airow, isolate your amplier from external
vibration and protect the surface nish of AV furniture
underneath.
For rack-mount installations where other equipment is in-
stalled directly adjacent, these feet are easily removed.

and setup
An enjoyable home entertainment experience always
begins with carefully planned placement and setup of
system components. This section will provide guidance
on how to best install your new Acurus amplier.
Shelf Mounting
When planning to mount on a shelf, be aware of the
physical dimensions of your Acurus amplier as outlined
in the section entitled Technical Specifications, p16.
It is ALWAYS advisable to:
1. Provide ample space above the unit (1-2 inches is
the minimum preferred)
2. Provide plenty of room (at least 1-2 inches) between
the sides of the unit at nearby surfaces or other
components
3. Locate the unit near an AC outlet or power condition-
er and avoid using extension cords or power strips
4. Locate the amplier as close as possible to the pre-
amp or pre-processor
5. Use as short length wire leads as practical, espe-
cially on the amplier inputs
6. Connect the amplier to the same mains circuit as
the pre-amplier
It is NEVER advisable to:
1. Enclose the unit in a cabinet without air ow or ad-
equate ventilation, particularly across the heat ns
along the side and back of the unit.
2. Place the unit near a source of moisture such as a
window or a live plant
3. Place other components in a stack on top of the
amplier
4. Place the amplier on a carpeted surface
5. Remove the safety ground connector from the AC
mains cord
Rack Mounting
Your Acurus amplier can easily be congured to mount
in a standard 19-inch rack cabinet with an optional
Acurus rack mount accessory kit. Hardware and
detailed installation instructions are included.
Contact your dealer or Acurus Customer Service with questions or
to request the rack mount kit designed specifically for your amplifier
model.
