JEFF ROWLAND CONTINUUM S2 User Manual

PROTECTION SYSTEMS
The CONTINUUM S2 is equipped with internal fuses for protection against excessive AC current
draw; however, since no protection circuitry or system can completely protect a product from
every electrical hazard, certain precautions should be observed. In the event of severe voltage
hazards such as lightning or when the integrated amplier will not be used for extended
periods of time, the integrated amplier should be unplugged from the AC mains to avoid
potential damage to the internal circuitry. All other audio/video system components should
also be disconnected from AC mains power as hazardous voltages can easily travel throughout
an interconnected system.
INSTALLATION, USE & CARE
Locate the integrated amplier as close as possible to its nal installation point. Allow access
to the rear panel for making connections. Due to it’s design, the CONTINUUM S2 is energy
efficient, eliminating the need for large heat sinks or forced-air cooling. As a result, the
CONTINUUM S2 can be housed in a cabinet or custom enclosure with no fear of overheating.
The chassis of the CONTINUUM S2 is precision-machined out of a solid block of aluminum to
create as rigid an enclosure as possible, impervious to lateral and torsional forces. The
integrated amplier is particularly non-resonant; however, various damping and resonance
control accessories may be used to yield greater audio performance in some audio systems.
The CONTINUUM S2 has been designed to operate at the highest level of efficiency and
performance in any normal operating situation; however, there are a few important use and
care principles that must be kept in mind when operating the integrated amplier:

Do not expose the integrated amplier to rain, moisture, or excessively damp
conditions.

Due to auto-ranging circuitry and dual-stage voltage regulation, the audio
performance will not be affected by any voltage uctuations within the operating
voltage range. The CONTINUUM S2 can be operated at any mains voltage over the
range of 85 to 265 VAC without any adjustments necessary.

The CONTINUUM S2 must not be modied in any way, other than according to official
service bulletins from Jeff Rowland Design Group. Otherwise, the factory warranty will
be immediately voided.

Be sure the integrated amplier is muted (red front panel indicator light on) before
connecting or disconnecting any interconnect cables.

When operating the CONTINUUM S2, a properly grounded AC receptacle should be
used. A potential shock hazard may result if the supplied 3-wire, grounded AC cable
