Rack Mounting Mounting in an EIA standard rack If multiple high-power amp units are mounted in a rack with poor ventilation, the heat from the amps will cause the interior of the amp to become very hot, causing the performance of the amps to be impaired. In particular, when mounting in a rack whose back can not be left open, mount according to the following instructions. Rack: Leave a gap of 10 cm or more between the rear panel of the rack and the rear panel of the amplifier. 3 Fan: Use a fan

Portable Rack Mounting This unit uses a forced cooling system in which air comes in through the front opening and goes out from the sides and rear. If you mount a single unit on a portable rack, be sure to maintain vent openings on the rear and sides.
