PowerPlay 8500
Location
Once your new PowerPlay is unpacked, you’ll need to find a convenient place to set it.
Mounting
The PowerPlay is stackable on other PS Audio PerfectWave devices, Or installed in a standard
component rack.
If your equipment is located a long distance from the PowerPlay, it is preferable to use a long,
heavy gauge shielded power cable between the AC receptacle in the wall and the PowerPlay. This
is better than long individual power cables between the connected components and the PowerPlay.
Network Connectivity
Connecting your PowerPlay to the network is an option that provides extended functionality benefits.
It is recommended that the PowerPlay be connected to the router via hard-wire connection, however
it will certainly function if connected to the network via wireless Ethernet bridge.
