Air Ducting Installation
The power amplifier is cooled with a built-in fan. Heated exhaust
air should not be recirculated into the power amplifier. A
clearance of 6-8 inches is recommended to allow the heated
exhaust air to clear the power amplifier air inlet.
If the unit is installed in a closed cabinet or in a configuration
that would tend to recirculate the exhaust air, provisions should
be made to isolate the exhaust air from the intake air supply.
