Gryphon Callisto - Core Operation and User Interface; Burn-In and Warm-Up; Placement; Menu-activated functions

Burn-In and
Warm-Up
Your Gryphon unit has been
thoroughly tested and burned in
before shipping. Performance
will continue to improve during
the first 40 – 50 hours of normal
use. After this period optimum
performance will be reached
approximately 45 minutes after
turn-on. With the exception of
Class A power amplifiers, we
recommend leaving your
Gryphon components powered
up at all times.
Placement
Care must be taken to position
the Callisto only on a stable sur-
face which can reliably support
the weight of the amplifier. The
amplifier's heat sinks have been
carefully designed and placed to
optimize heat dissipation for
ideal cool operating conditions.
In order for the heatsinks to
operate effectively, there must
be ample air circulation around
the Callisto at all times.
Do not place the Callisto on or
near any source of heat. Do not
place any object directly on top
of the Callisto. Do not place the
Callisto in an enclosed space
such as a cabinet, unless ample
ventilation is provided.
