NTRODUCTION The Linn KLOUT power amplifier has many unique attributes which set new standards in both mechanical and electronic Iengineering. The KLOUT is designed to partner the Linn KAIRN pre- amplifier, from which it can be operated directly. The KLOUT is housed in a one-piece, solid extrusion, engineered to maximise strength and heat dissipation. Three pairs of speaker outlets per channel allow easy bi-wiring or tri-wiring. A screened transformer enables the KLOUT to be positioned close

INSTALLATION Unpack the KLOUT and retain the packing for future transportation. CAUTIONTake care when handling the KLOUT. It weighs 11kg and should be lifted carefully to avoid damage to yourself and the product. Do not stack a KLOUT with other products which will obstruct the airflow, or which cannot support the weight. WARNING Never attempt any home maintenance.

VENTILATION Every power amplifier requires ventilation. Position the KLOUT in such a way as to allow free movement of air around the heatsinks. Up to five KLOUTs can be stacked on top of each other without risk of overheating. We do not recommend stacking the KLOUT on any other product. The KLOUT will automatically shut down if it gets too hot. If this happens, provide more ventilation. INPUT CONNECTIONS The KLOUT has one pair of RCA phono sockets per channel labelled LINE INPUT and LINE OUTPU
