AN EXTENSION CORD, RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE
BLADES CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.
The graphic symbol of a lightning flash with an
arrow point within a triangle signifies that there
is dangerous voltage within the unit and it poses
a hazard to anyone removing the cover to gain
access to the interior of the unit. OnIy qualified
service personnel should make any such attempt.
CAUTION POWER LINES
Any outdoor antenna must be located away from all power lines.
OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna is connected to your tuner or tuner/preamplifier,
be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 701984, provides information
with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
The graphic symbol of an exclamation point within
an equilateral triangle warns a user of the device
that it is necessary to refer to the instruction manual
and its warnings for proper operation of the unit.
Donotplacethisunitonanunstablecart, stand, tripod,

injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the
unit. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or

the unit. Any mounting of the device should follow the
manufacturer’sinstructions, andshoulduseamounting
accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
a. Use No.10 AWG (5.3 mm2) copper, No.8 AWG (8.4 mm2) aluminum, No.17
AWG (1.0 mm2) copper clad steel or bronze wire, or larger, as a ground wire.
b. Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with stand-off
insulators spaced from 46 feet (1.221.83 m) apart.
Read all the safety and operating instructions before connecting or using
this unit.
c. Mount antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where lead-in enters
house.
Retain this notice and the owner’s manual for future reference.
All warnings on the unit and in its operating instructions should be adhered to.
All operating and use instructions should be followed.
d. Use jumper wire not smaller than No.6 AWG (13.3 mm2) copper, or the
equivalent, when a separate antenna grounding electrode is used. See NEC
Section 810-21 (j).

Introduction
Congratulations on your decision to
purchasetheGFP-715stereopreamplifier.
Two channel audio is better than ever!
The new DVD Audio and SACD formats
can support a wider frequency spectrum
(100kHz) and greater dynamic range
(144dB) than conventional CD. The GPF-
715 is designed to capture all the fidelity
that high resolution audio has to offer,
with precision broadband components
and an ultra low noise floor. Equipped
with a processor loop, a tape loop and
a phono stage, this new ADCOM preamp
hasn’t forgotten about your legacy
components.Audition the GFP-715 paired
with an ADCOM power amp and DVD
player and rediscover the magic of two

your new stereo preamplifier, and before
making any connections to it, please
read these operating and installation
instructions thoroughly.
shipping carton and packing materials
are not available for inspection by
the carrier. Save all packing materials
until the claim has been settled.
Safety Information
There are no user serviceable parts
inside. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.
Placing the GFP-715
The unit must be connected to a power
supply only of the type and voltage
specified on the rear panel. Connect
the component to the power outlet
only with the supplied power supply
cable or an exact equivalent. Do not
modify the supplied cable. Do not
defeat grounding and/or polarization
provisions. The cable should be
connected to a 3-pin polarized wall
outlet, matching the wide blade of the
plug to the wide slot of the receptacle.
Do not use extension cords. Do not
route the power cord where it will
be crushed, pinched, bent, exposed
to heat, or damaged in any way. Pay
particular attention to the power cord
Although the GFP-715 does not
generate much heat, it is good practice
to ensure the amplifier’s long-term,
trouble-free operation to provide
adequate ventilation for the unit.
Therefore, the GFP-715 should be kept
away from external sources of heat
such as radiators and hot-air ducts.
Key Features
We recommend that you exercise
care when placing components on top
of the GFP-715. If you are placing a
heat producing component (such as an
amplifier) on top of or below the GFP-
715, it is recommended that you allow
at least 3 inches vertical spacing for
proper airflow.

or the first component the cable is connected to (i.e. the
cable box, or VCR). If the hum is no longer present, you
must insert a “75Ω ground loop isolator” before reconnect-
ing the line. You should check with your ADCOM dealer to
obtain one. If the “75Ω ground loop isolator” works only
partially or not at all, then please read note 2 to complete
the troubleshooting procedure.
Troubleshooting
Use the troubleshooting notes above to solve common
situations that don’t require professional attention. If the
steps stated in possible solution do not resolve your prob-
lem, then please contact your ADCOM dealer or call the
ADCOM customer service department. Any problems not
covered here should be brought to the attention of your
ADCOM dealer or ADCOM customer service department.
Note 2: Make sure that the power amplifier is at least 6”
from processor or other equipment using microprocessors.
Usually putting another component between them is suf-
ficient to minimize the hum. If this does not reduce the
hum, turn the system off and disconnect all Inputs from
the amplifier. If the hum still persists, then your dealer or
service center must examine the unit/system. If the hum
disappears, try another set of RCA cables. Connect one RCA
cable at a time to see if one specific cable is responsible.
If any or all cables cause the hum to appear, then the unit
should be evaluated for proper operation by your dealer or
authorized service center. Please see our website or call us
for a list of authorized service centers in your area.
A special note on “hum:” When there is a low-volume
“hum” audible throughout your speakers, even with the
main volume turned all the way down, you have a com-
mon phenomenon known as a “ground loop.” A ground loop
is basically a difference in ground voltages between two
or more components which are connected electrically and
which creates multiple current paths where there must only
be one. This difference in potentials creates a 60Hz low-
level sound (approximately a low A), that seems to “hum.”
It can be caused by adding new components to your system,
but that does not imply there is anything electrically wrong
with any new component. With the advent of audio/video
and home theater systems, the problem has become com-
monplace. Generally, the cause is the Cable-TV incoming
signal line. This new incoming line may add an additional
ground at a different potential to the AC line ground of
your other equipment (refer to note I and 2, to trouble-
shoot a hum problem).
Servicing
ADCOM has a technical service department to answer
questions pertinent to the installation and operation of your
unit. In the event of difficulty, please contact us for prompt
advice. If your problem cannot be resolved through our
combined efforts, we may refer you to an authorized repair
agency, or authorize return of the unit to our factory. To aid
us in directing you to a convenient service center, it would
be helpful if you indicate which major city is accessible to
your home.
Note 1: Cable TV systems can sometimes contribute to
ground loop problems which cause “hum.” To determine
if your cable system is the contributing factor, disconnect
the Cable-TV incoming signal line (round, 75Ω) at the wall,
