POWER AMPLIFIER
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity
X-AS100 Power Amplifier. Used properly and
carefully, it should give you many years of outstanding
musical reproduction.
Aesthetically and electronically the X-AS100 matches
perfectly with the X-P100 Preamplifier, X-RAY CD player
and X-PLORA tuner. Together, they form one of the
finest hi-fi systems available.
The X-AS100 has been designed to be switched on
continuously. The PSU should be positioned as far
away from the X-AS100 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.
