Congratulations on your purchase of this precision audio component and thank you for

capabilities of your new preamplier.
Unpacking
Carefully unpack your Zpre and locate the following accessories:

Be sure to inspect the unit for any possible shipping damage. If you notice any, contact
your Parasound Dealer immediately. Save the carton and all of the packing materials in
case you ever need to ship the Zpre for repair.
Installation and Rack Mounting
Locate your Zpre on a sturdy surface and out of direct sunlight that may interfere with
its remote control sensor. Place your Zpre away from equipment such as computers or
tuners that could cause interference.
The Zpre panel dimensions are one rack space high (1 3/4” or 44 mm) by one-half rack
width (9 1/2" or 242 mm). It will t into a standard 19" wide equipment rack when
