Protection against
liquids & heat
1.2
BLU MKII is not
protected against liquids
of any kind. Never place
containers of liquid on BLU MKII.
Never allow BLU MKII to come
into contact with moisture or
liquids; doing so could result in
electrocution or damage to the
BLU MKII’s internal circuitry.
Be aware that liquids, including
water that has dried, can leave
minerals that can aect the
PCB and other components,
which could eventually lead to
oxidisation and short-circuiting.
If the BLU MKII comes into
contact with moisture or liquids,
immediately disconnect from
the mains power supply, and
connected equipment and
contact Chord Electronics for
further advice.
The BLU MKII has
internal thermal
protection which will
shut down the unit in the event
of excessive temperatures being
reached. Never operate the BLU
MKII near sources of heat or
naked flames as this will decrease
the lifespan of the internal
components. It is advised that
you do not operate the BLU MKII
in an area of direct sunlight or on
top of significant heat- producing
devices.
Please be aware that it is
entirely normal for the BLU
MKII to become warm during
use, particularly within a
stacked configuration. If you
are concerned about the
temperatures, please switch the
device o or consider a dierent
placement.

There are no user-
serviceable components
within the BLU MKII.
Dangerous voltages/currents
exist within the BLU MKII, 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 within this user
manual.
If the BLU MKII develops a
fault or the casework becomes
damaged, immediately
disconnect from the mains
power supply and connected
equipment, and contact Chord
Electronics for further advice.

Dismantling & radio
frequency interference
1.3
With a thick, solid aluminium
chassis, the BLU MKII’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 the
BLU MKII away
from wireless routers.
2. Separate the BLU
MKII from amplifiers
using toroidal
transformers.
3. Operate mobile
phones at a distance to
avoid interference.
Although the BLU MKII
is largely shielded, it
can generate radio
frequency interference that
may have an eect on radio
and television reception. If this
occurs, please reconsider your
placement.

Before connecting the BLU MKII
to any equipment, consult the
manufacturer’s user guide to
confirm compatibility.
When connecting the BLU MKII
to any equipment please make
sure that all devices are o,
including the BLU MKII.
Once your devices are
connected, switch all equipment
on starting with the source and
ending with the amplification.
You can learn about the inputs
and outputs on page 14.
You must always initially operate
any connected equipment on its
lowest gain setting and lowest
volume setting before gently
increasing to a comfortable
listening level. This is to prevent
any possible damage to
connected equipment.
If the power supply is
prematurely disconnected BLU
MKII may still remain active for
up to 15 seconds, however, this
may cause damage to connected
equipment.
