RECYCLING
This products packaging materials are recyclable and can be reused. The product and the accessories packed together are the

INSTALLATION - IMPORTANT
There are two points that must be considered carefully when installing your amplifier.
1) Adequate ventilation.
2) Proximity to low level gain stages and magnetic tape recorders.
It is VERY IMPORTANT that the amplifier must not be confined in a space that will produce a build up or re-
circulation of heated air. We recommend a clearance of 5cm either side and above the unit. This will allow a
free circulation of air when situated in an open-back cabinet. Never stand equipment on top of the amplifier.
The amplifier should be kept away from any heat sources such as direct sunlight or radiators.
The amplifier should be switched off when not in use.
CONNECTING TO A MAINS SUPPLY
Before connecting your amplifier to a mains supply ensure that the mains voltage rating on the inspection
ticket and packing carton is the same as your countries supply. Connection to the mains is via the AC cable
supplied with your amplifier and connects to the mains input socket at the back of the amplifier.
MAINS CABLES AND POWER SUPPLIES
We do not recommend the use of specialist mains blocks or power supplies as this can degrade the sound
quality and reduce the dynamic range of your amplifier.
SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
Always ensure that your amplifier is switched off before any connections are made to associated equipment.
We recommend that good quality cables and plugs are used with your Sugden amplifier. Your retailer or
Sugden Audio can advise you on cables that offer good performance and match Sugden products.
SWITCH ON
The ANV-50 has two internal relays and these operate with a delay of up to 10 seconds when the amplifier is
switched on.
