Positioning

Despite the efficiency of the design, your Majik DS-I integrated amplifier still requires to dissipate considerable power in the form of heat. It should therefore be sited in a position that does not restrict the airflow around it.

For best results:

  • Allow at least 10 cm / 4” free space above and to each side of the unit for air circulation which will allow this heat to dissipate.
  • If the unit is sited a cabinet, air must be able to flow through from front-to-back. An enclosed cabinet will severely restrict heat dissipation.
  • Ensure that nothing is placed above or below the amplifier that might block or restrict the vents.

If the Majik-I has inadequate ventilation and/or is played very enthusiastically for a period of time, its temperature may rise above the designated operating level and the amplifier will shut down until it has cooled sufficiently.
