Owners Manual
The information furnished in this manual does not include all of the details of design or
variations of the equipment, nor does it cover every possible situation that may arise during
installation, operation or maintenance. This manual will familiarize you with features of your
amplifi er so we suggest you take time to read through it before operating your system to get
the most out of your amplifi er.
For your safety read the sections on important precau-
tions, input, output and power connections.
Keep this manual for future reference.
Each Face Audio® amplifi er is inspected before leaving the factory and should arrive dam-
age-free. However, in the event damage did occur in transit notify the shipping company and
point-of-purchase immediately. Be sure to save the carton and all packing material for any
future shipping needs as they are specially designed to protect the amplifi er during transit.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
To prevent electric shock do not remove
cover or back. No user serviceable parts
inside.
CAUTION!
Do not locate sensitive high-gain equipment
such as preamplifi ers or tape decks directly above or below
the unit. Because this amplifi er has a high power density,
it has a strong magnetic fi eld, which can induce hum into
unshielded devices that are located nearby. The fi eld is
strongest just above and below the unit. If an equipment
rack is used, we recommend locating the amplifi er(s) in the
bottom of the rack and the preamplifi er or other sensitive
equipment at the top.
