1. IMPORTANT NOTE
Congratulations! You are the owner of a carefully designed and manufactured equipment. We
thank you for trusting on us and choosing our amplifier eGPA.
In order to obtain maximum operativity and perfect functioning order, it is most important to carefully
read all considerations taken into account in this manual before connecting this amplifier.
We recommend our authorised Technical Services if any maintenance task should be needed so
that optimum operation shall be achieved.
1.1. Precautions
The amplifier should have an earth connection in good conditions (earth resistance, Rg=30Ω or
less). The environment must be dry and dustless. Do not expose the unit to rain or water splashes, and
do not place liquid containers or incandescent objects like candles on top of the unit. Do not obstruct the
ventilation shafts with any kind of material. In case there is some type of intervention and/or connection-
disconnection of the amplifier, it is most important to previously disconnect the mains power supply.
Do not manipulate the output terminals to the loudspeakers when the amplifier is switched on,
there are voltages up to 400Vpp. The output cabling should be connected by a qualified
technician. Otherwise only use pre-made flexible cables. There are no user serviceable parts
inside the amplifier.
