Import Tips & Compliance

Provide frequency response curves (typically 20Hz-20kHz) to distinguish from RF amplifiers

Separate amplifier from any included rack ears or mounting hardware to avoid parts classification

Pre-clear voltage requirements (120V vs 240V) with CBP to prevent voltage mismatch holds
