Before you install the S-300i into your system, review the following
guidelines to choose the location for the S-300i. This will facilitate
a clean, trouble-free installation. The S-300i does not require any
type of special rack or cabinet for installation. For the dimensions
of the S-300i, see
S p e c i f i c a t i o n s
, on the back cover.
Place the S-300i on a firm, level surface, away from excessive
heat, humidity, or moisture. The S-300i requires at least 1 inch
(2.54 cm) of clearance on each side and at least two inches (5 cm)
of clearance above the component to provide adequate ventilation.
Installations inside cabinetry may need extra ventilation.
The S-300i is not hum-sensitive. Other components may be
placed on or around the S-300i (make sure ventilation grids
remain unobstructed).
Place the amplifier as close to the loudspeakers as possible and
keep loudspeaker cable lengths to a minimum. Loudspeaker cable
adds impedance to the load the amplifier must drive, regardless of
the cable
’
s gauge. All Krell amplifiers drive the lowest impedances
with ease, but long loudspeaker cables reduce the maximum
power that can be delivered to the loudspeakers.
The S-300i has superb regulation and does not require a dedicat-
ed AC circuit. Avoid connections through extension cords or multi-
ple AC adapters. High quality 15 amp grounded AC strips are
acceptable. High quality AC line conditioners or filters may be
used if they are grounded and meet or exceed the unit
’
s maximum
power consumption of 1800 Wa t t s .
The S-300i should be operated with the power cord
supplied and connected directly to the AC power outlet. Please
contact your authorized Krell dealer, distributor, or Krell before
using any devices designed to alter or stabilize the AC power for
the S-300i.
