Musical Fidelity XA-2 Owners manual
INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity X-A2
Amplifier. Used properly and carefully, it should give you
many years of outstanding musical reproduction.
The X-A2 is the result of a continuous research and
development program into the factors that affect Hi-Fi
sound quality and has been designed for ultra-high
definition performance.
Aesthetically and electronically the X-A2 matches
perfectly with the X-RAY CD player and the other
X-Ponent units. Together, they can form one of the
finest hi-fi systems that you can own.
The X-A2 has been designed to be switched on
continuously. The PSU should be positioned as far
away from the X-A2 as possible. We suggest that the PSU
is placed on the floor near the mains outlet.
Dust regularly with a soft duster or soft brush but be
careful when using cleaning or polishing agents - they may
harm the surface finish.
If you have any questions about anything in your
audio system, please consult your dealer who is there
to help and advise you.
