GENERAL SYSTEM INSTALLATION
KARIK AND NUMERIK
The KARIK and NUMERIK should be positioned on a
level surface. Extensive internal screening in the KAIRN preamp, KREMLIN
tuner, KARIK and NUMERIK facilitates stacking the products one on top of the
other without interference, if desired.
POWER SUPPLIES
Take care not to position too close to signal leads,
turntables or pre-amplifier.
AMPLIFIERS
Pre and power amplifiers may hum if positioned too close
together. For minimum hum experiment by moving the components with the
system at full volume but not playing music (although it is best to turn the
volume down whilst actually moving the components).
LOUDSPEAKERS
Loudspeakers should be positioned correctly. They should
be mounted on rigid stands, and not subject to any rocking movement.
CLEAN CONTACTS
It is important that the electrical contacts in a hi-fi
system are kept mechanically sound and clean. Occasionally unplugging and
replugging all the connectors will effectively clean contacts.
WARNING
This should be carried out after the mains supply has been
switched off.
INTERCONNECT LEADS
Correct cables should be used. We recommend
good quality copper cable for interconnect leads and advise 4mm
2
multicore
copper cable, such as Linn K20, for speaker leads.
Your Linn dealer can supply high quality interconnects for linking all your hi-fi
components.
