PLACEMENT
The Triode Mono Amplifiers should have at least 6 inches of ventilation space on either side and
at least 6 inches above them. If this is not possible, them use a fan for cooling.
SPEAKER CONNECTION
5 way binding posts are used for speaker connections because of their convienience. The output
transformer wires are silver soldered directly to the binding posts eliminating any output wiring.
Placing the amp directly behind the speaker with a very short speaker wire will further improve
the performance. The connection to the 4 or 8 ohm tap will be determined by the rating on the back
of your speaker system. The C terminal should be connected to the common, ground, or negative
terminal of your speaker.
SYSTEM GROUNDING
At least one component of your system should always be grounded.
Your Mono Amplifiers
come with three pronged grounded AC plugs. In some systems, where the preamp is also
grounded, a ground loop may appear as a low level hum. Using an adaptor on the AC plug, to
lift the amplifier grounds, will solve this problem.
Quicksilver Audio Triode Mono Amplifier
Operating Instructions
Thank you for purchasing the Quicksilver Audio Triode Mono Amplifiers. These amplifiers have been
engineered to have a very wide bandwidth, extremely low distortion and superior dynamic range.
The output transformer used in this amplifier is based on the best designs of the past but uses superior new
materials to achieve a very high level of performance. The high frequency characteristics of this transformer
are so stable that many different output tubes may be used without the need for circuit changes or
compensation adjustments.
This is an all tube design and uses no circuit boards or transistors.
This device has very high internal voltages. Never operate with the bottom removed!
Never operate your amplifers with the speakers disconnected.
To prolong the life of your amplifiers, never turn them on and off within a short period of time
(45 seconds.)
