The Obelisk Si integrated amplifier, just like the optional X-2 power supply unit do
not have any user servi eable parts. It is essential that repairs and updates are only
arried out by our authorised trade partners – distributors and dealers – , or at the
fa tory by Heed Audio itself. Many omponents are ustom made, tested or mat hed and
appropriate repla ements are often unobtainable from other sour es.
Therefore, users should not attempt to servi e the units beyond those means des ribed
in the operating instru tions, or under any ir umstan es allow anyone to modify them.
Unauthorised repairs or modifi ations will invalidate the guarantee of the units.
Grounding or Polarization — Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or
polarization is not defeated.
Radio interferen e — All Heed components are designed to pro ide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a domestic installation. Howe er, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If your Obelisk does cause harmful
interference to radio or tele ision reception, which can be determined by turning off and on, you
are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
— Reorient or relocate the recei ing antenna;
— Increase the separation between amplifier and recei er (radio tuner, tele ision set, etc.);
— Connect the equipment into a power outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
recei er is connected;
— Consult your Heed dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

soft dry cloth.
