NOTICE
Heavy or inflexible power cables may damage the power socket on the unit.
Some “audiophile” cables have unusual grounding or screening arrangements, or
they don't have the correct characteristic impedance. If you have difficulty using
such cables but the problem disappears when you use standard cables, contact
your cable manufacturer.
