1.3 Safety precautions
Speaker system damage and protection of human beings
Power amps provide extremely high power output that might be dangerous for human beings
as well as for the connected speaker systems. High output voltages can damage or even
destroy the connected speaker systems, especially, when the amplifier is operated in bridge
mode. Prior to connecting any loudspeakers, make sure to check the speaker system’s
specifications for continuous and peak power handling capacities. Even if amplification has
been reduced through lowering the input level controls on the amplifier’s front panel, it is still
possible to achieve full power output with a sufficiently high input signal.
Danger!
Danger at the loudspeaker/power outputs
Power amplifiers are capable of producing dangerously high voltage output that is present at
the output connectors.
To protect yourself from electric shock, do not touch any blank speaker cables during
operation of the power amp.
Danger!
The terminals marked with a lightning bolt are hazardous live and the external wiring
connected to these terminals requires installation by an instructed person or the use of
ready-made leads of cords.
Danger!
In case of using the amplifier with speakers including a primary tapped transformer, it is
possible that during operation shock hazard voltages may be present at the taps of the
transformer.
Therefore, the taps have to be insulated sufficiently in accordance with applicable safety
regulations.
1.4 High frequency interference – FCC/EN55032
IMPORTANT: Do not modify this unit! Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user’s authority, granted by the FCC, to operate the equipment.

IT security disclaimer
In order to offer maximum compatibility with all networked audio devices and to allow for fast
and easy setup and maintenance, our OMNEO-enabled amplifier products do not support
encrypted communications for audio or control data and do not verify the authenticity of any
Dante or OCA controllers (or any other node) on the network.
This means that these devices do not take any special precautions against malicious or
accidental attacks via their network interfaces. Such attacks happen every day on the public
internet. It is strongly recommended to set up the system in a safe, isolated network, meaning
a network where all hardware components are known and physically owned and none of them
is connected to the public internet.
Network cabling
The OMNEO network comprises audio transport using the Dante protocol as well as OCA
control commands. In order to guarantee the product performance according to
specifications, network cabling has to be shielded, fulfilling the requirements of CAT 5e as a
minimum.
For integration in networks, the network switches require a dedicated configuration. Further
details will be explained in the documentation of the related network control software.
