PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION
• Install the Controller and the Preamplifier each on its
own shelf to ensure proper ventilation.
• Ensure that you install the Controller and Preamplifier
on solid, flat and level surfaces.
• Install the Preamplifier chassis as close as possible to
associated audio components to keep interconnecting
cables as short as possible.
NOTE: In some cases it is better to use longer
interconnecting cables between the Preamplifier and
power amplifier(s) to allow the use of shorter speaker
wires. Contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer
for advice.
• Select a dry, well-ventilated location that is out of direct
sunlight.
• Allow at least 1/2 inch to 1 inch (13mm – 25mm) of
clearance above each chassis for proper heat dissipation.
• DO NOT place either chassis on a thick rug or carpet or
cover either chassis with a cloth, as this might prevent
proper cooling.
• DO NOT expose the N
0
52 to high temperatures, humidity,
steam, smoke, dampness, or excessive dust. Avoid
installing the N
0
52 near radiators and other heat-
producing appliances.
