1 Unpacking At this point we can assume that you have successfully opened the box flaps and found this manual. The box was designed to ensure the safe transport of the amplifier. Sonic Frontiers strongly recommends the storage of the Power 1 box in a safe, dry place. In the event that the amplifier may have to be shipped in the future, the original box is the best means for the protection and safety of the Power 1 during transportation. You may want to enlist a friends help to remove the amplifier from the box as the distribution of the weight can make this awkward (hint: the back of the chassis is the heavy end). Here is a chart listing what you will find in the box: If after your inspection of the contents there is a discrepancy, contact your dealer or Sonic Frontiers immediately. Removing the Tube Cover To remove the cover, loosen and remove the 4 screws installed from the bottom, 2 per side. Lift the cover straight up and away from the tubes. To add the cover, simply place the cage over the tube top, replace and tighten the 4 large screws.
