There are no user-
serviceable components
within DAVE or its power
supply. Dangerous voltages/
currents exist within DAVE and
its power supply, posing a severe
risk of electrocution and/or fire.
Never attempt to
open, dismantle or
apply internal third-
party devices to it or insert
anything other than the listed
interconnects or headphone
adapters within this user manual.
If DAVE develops a fault or the
casework becomes damaged,
immediately disconnect from
the power supply and connected
equipment, and contact Chord
Electronics for further advice.

1.3
With a thick, solid aluminium
chassis, DAVE’s casework
largely protects the sensitive
internal circuitry from radio
frequency interference. However,
for optimal performance, it is
recommended that the following
points are observed:
1. Consider placing DAVE away
from wireless routers.
2. Separate DAVE from
amplifiers using toroidal
transformers.
3. Operate mobile phones at
a distance to avoid
interference.
Although the unit is
largely shielded, it
can generate radio
frequency interference that
may have an eect on analogue
radio and television reception.
Please consider moving DAVE to
a dierent location should this
happen.
