UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION
Unpacking
Your Cary Audio Design product was shipped in a carton particularly designed to protect
its contents, and special care has been taken to prevent damage during shipping.
Carefully remove your new component from its packing carton and examine it closely for signs of
shipping damage. If shipping damage is discovered, document the damage with photographs,
contact the transport carrier immediately, and retain the packing as
evidence.
We strongly recommend saving all original packing cartons to protect your component for
storage or future shipping.
Power Requirement
The SA-200.2 is designed to operate from AC mains current. The specified AC voltage is
either 110-120 volts or 220-240 volts AC at 50-60 Hz.
Cables
The speaker cables from the output posts of the SA-200.2 power amplifier to the speaker
system can be any length, as your speaker set-up requires. Select speaker cables of sufficient
size to preserve the outstanding performance capabilities of your SA-200.2 power amplifier.
Heavy gauge #14 wire is suitable for distances up to 10 feet, #12 for 25 feet. Most audio dealers
will have proper speaker cable in stock for this purpose. Consult your Authorized Cary Audio
Design dealer for advice about wire.
Interconnects
Signal input connections are made via the input jack on the rear of the SA-200.2 power amplifier,
either single-ended or balanced. The interconnect cables from the output of the processor can be
any convenient length your installation set-up requires. The choice of a high quality interconnect
cable is important. Once again, your audio dealer will have the proper cables in stock for this
purpose.
