Interconnect Cables 

Signal input connection is made via the RCA input jack on the rear of the amplifier located next 
to the output binding posts. Set the input selection switch to indicate the desired input connection 
RCA. The input interconnect cables from the output of the preamplifier can be any length your 
installation requires. A shielded high quality interconnect cable is important to reduce chances 
for hum or interference. Ask your Authorized Navison audio dealer for advice.

Operation 

Your new amplifier is ready for operation after the speaker cables, interconnect cables and the 
tubes have been installed.

WARNING!

Off-On Power Toggle Switch

Push the AC toggle switch toward the rear, to the “ON” position. The 6SN7 input tubes, 6SN7 
driver tubes and the 6C33C-B out put tubes will light up in this setting. 

‘Break In’ Period 

The tubes, capacitors and the transformers take approximately 100 hours of music playing to 
fully settle in for peak performance. Small imperfections in the tube surfaces will ‘boil off’ during 
the break in period as well. The amplifier will sound good right out of the box but it will improve 
as break in occurs. After the first couple of hours you will notice increased depth and tighter 
bass. This break in period is true with most high performance audio amplifiers.

Cleaning and Care of Finish

The chassis may be cleaned with a soft towel and Windex

®

 or a similar gentle window cleaner. 

The relative frequency of cleaning will be governed by operating environmental cleanliness. Spray 
the cleaner on the towel, not on the amplifier! Avoid abrasive cleaners! Feather dusters are good 
for cleaning the amp and the tubes when it is cool, not when ON.
