Instant Install
If you are like us, the first thing you will want to do is to play your favourite
piece of music through your new 6160. The following instructions are written to
enable you to achieve this as quickly as possible. These are not comprehensive
instructions, but are designed to enable you to play music now!
Note: Please take the time to read the 6160 manual thoroughly as it
incorporates many features, which will enhance its operation.
Placement
The 6160 is a high-power amplifier and best results will be achieved when
placed on a solid surface with adequate ventilation. DO NOT place on a
carpeted floor or cover the amplifier!
Turn off associated components
This minimises the potential to damage any other components when connecting
your 6160 into the system.
Connect preamplifier to 6160
Connect the output of your preamplifier/processor to the inputs at the rear of the
6160 and ensure that the three toggle switches are all set to NORMAL.
Note: Try to keep all interconnect cables as far from loudspeaker cables as
possible and well away from all AC mains leads.
Connect speaker cables to the left and right speaker terminals
We recommend using high quality connectors for your speaker cables, spade
lugs are the preferable option as they combine a larger surface area with the
possibility of a strong mechanical connection; however, high quality banana
terminals are also acceptable.
Note: Be careful to maintain channel integrity, i.e. left to left, right to right, and
phase integrity, positive (+) to positive (+), negative (-) to negative (-).
Switch on preamplifier
Turn on the preamplifier/processor and set the volume to the minimum level.
Select the respective input to which your source component is connected.
Switch on 6160
After checking the supply voltage compatibility with the voltage rating on the
6160 rear panel, insert the power cord-set supplied into the rear of the unit and
into the wall. Switch on the socket at the wall and power up the 6160 using the
switch on the rear panel.
