Attaching feet

If the C55 is not mounted in a rack it will 
need feet so air can flow in through the bot-
tom panel. Do not place the C55 in a cabinet 
that limits the airflow throught the amplifier.  
Feet and screws are included in the box. 
Using long screws can damage the ampli-
fier, please use the screws included in this 
package.

Rack Mounting

When mounting the C55 in a rack it is im-
portant that the airflow through the amplifer 
is unrestricted. Please leave sufficient space 
above and below unused to ensure this.
You should also avoid mounting any heat 
generating products underneath the C55.
The faceplate is 7mm thick. You need a rack 
screw with length of at least 16mm. 

The C55 comes with adjustable rear rack 
mounts. To use the rear mounts you need 
an extra set of cage nuts that you slide into 
the track in the rear rack mounts. Rear rack 
mounts shuld be attached to the rear handle 
of the C55. 

Changing Fuse 

The C55 has a main fuse as well as a sepa-
rate fuse for each channel. 

The main fuse holder is located on the rear 
panel close to the mains input. It is a bayonet 
mount fuse holder. Use a flat head screw-
driver to open the fuse holder by pushing it 
in and rotate counter clockwise. Do not use 
force!

The channel fuse holder is located on the 
relay board inside the amplifier and should 
only be replaced by authorized service 
technicians.
