The manual was made available promptly. I is a clean scan of the original. I had no problem downloading it. The scan was well centered and cleanly formatted. It is as good a product as can be had without being the original document.

Received downlink in less then 8 hours, Item was in good copy condition, and told me how to program the clock timer. The price was very resonable, and the process was very automated and was GREAT to work with.

Fast service, document is OK. Thanks! Searched for it long time.

I was very pleased with the manual I got for my amateur (ham) radio. Without it I could not figure out how to input and/or change the P/L setting on my radio. It drove me nuts as the radio was essentially useless. That all changed when my manual came. Then it took only minutes and I was done. Now my radio works fine. This is an exceptionally good resource as it's a very easy and user friendly download. Thank you very much! Dziękujemy za!

It answered my question, which was how to load the paper. I did notice that the very end of the manual was not visible.
120A
Avoiding Transients
Operating Notes
Section 1
Any sharp noises from your sound system can be hard on your system, and since the 120A amplifies and augments all low-frequency information, extra caution is called for at all times. To be safe, turn the power amp on last, and off first. and always keep the main volume control low or off when turning the system or any of its components on. To further reduce the chance of dangerous transients, make sure your system is operating at its optimum performance. We recommend you have all switches, button and knobs on your equipment cleaned by a qualified person (especially if any rasp or crackle is present). If you are using a turntable, check to make sure that the cueing is gentle.
Speaker Placement
For systems with multiple speakers, we recommend placing each speaker so that the distances from the center of its woofer to the three nearest boundaries are as different as possible. These distances are measured along the speaker cabinet sides, not in a straight line. When these distances are the same, the bass response of most speakers is roughest, with peaks and dips more than 10dB apart over just a few notes. Putting a conventional box-shaped speaker woofer down in a corner will make it sound very bassy, but for the evenness of bass, it�s the worst spot available. The formula for calculating maximum different distances a, b, and c and least bumpy speaker placement is: a/b= b/c, or b2 = ac, where a, b, and c are never equal. The same acoustic laws apply to your listening position: the smoothest bass will result when the distances from your head to the three nearest boundaries are as different as possible. In the same manner, the boomiest rooms have all three dimensions the same and the smoothest have them maximally different. If you do reposition your speakers, you should also reset any output level controls on the back of the speaker cabinet. Many speakers offer a slight HF or MF boost with these controls all the way up, and the new increase in bass might be better balanced by such a maximum setting. The 120A is not intended only as a device to create wall crumbling low-end. Judicious use with a pair of full range speakers can create the sense that a pair of speakers with 15� woofers is being used. An additional benefit of improving the sound of smaller speakers is that a pair of smaller speakers and a 120A is more portable than a pair of two larger speakers.
Turntable Feedback and Low Frequency Rumble
If you are using the 120A with a turntable, the increased levels of bass may make your turntable system more susceptible to feedback, wherein the turntable base, platter, cartridge/stylus, and/or the disc itself actually pickup and replay bass from the speakers. One symptom is an increasing, flapping rumble as you turn the volume up (severely, the system begins to howl) that disappears or is markedly reduced when the tonearm is lifted off the record. The cure is to isolate the turntable, making it immune to low-frequency vibrations. Any LF rumble in the system from turntable, air conditioning, through mics, etc., will be boosted by the 120A. To reduce turntable feedback, begin by locating the turntable and the speakers as far apart as practical. Next, short of replacing the turntable, since some turntables are much more prone to feedback than others, shock-absorber feet designed specifically for this problem. A massive base or table under the turntable may decouple it from the cases. Note for CD Players: High levels of Bass can cause CD players to skip. It is a good idea to locate CD players away from low-end drivers and loudspeakers, and shock mount them.
