Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Sonance ASAP1D amplifier.
When properly installed, this amplifier will give you many
years of entertainment pleasure. To get the most out of your
new amplifier, please read this manual thoroughly before you
begin installation.
To achieve the best performance, Sonance recommends that
this amplifier be installed by a Sonance Authorized
Dealer/Installer.
Design
The ASAP1D will automatically switch a pair of speakers
between a whole-home audio system that normally plays in
the area (the House source), and a nearby source, usually a
TV set or iPort
®
(the Local source). The ASAP1D can be set up
so that it will automatically switch from the House source to
the Local source when it senses either an audio signal or a
video signal from the Local source.
A typical application would be to use the ASAP1D to
power and automatically switch a pair of speakers in a
bedroom from playing background music sent by a whole-
home audio system to playing the sound of the bedroom TV
whenever the TV is switched ON.
The ASAP1D utilizes a highly-efficient digital amplifier that
provides 25 watts RMS per channel in stereo. The ASAP1D
produces high power in a small package, with very little heat
generation. This expands installation options, improves long-
term reliability and provides significant energy savings over
conventional amplifier designs.
Box Contents
Your ASAP1D amplifier box should contain the following:
(1) ASAP1D Power amplifier
(1) Wall-hanger bracket
(4) Stick-on rubber feet
Unpacking
Save the shipping carton and polystyrene inserts so you can
safely transport your amplifier in the future. Before you install
the amplifier, locate the serial number on its rear panel and
note it here for future reference:

Apply the four supplied stick-on feet to the amplifier's bottom
panel and place the ASAP1D on a level surface, in an upright
position, out of direct sunlight and away from windows
through which rain may enter.
Situate the amplifier away from heat sources such as hot air
ducts or radiators. Be sure that the amplifier is adequately
ventilated by convection cooling or suitable cabinet fans.
When using the ASAP1D with a TV set, it may be
convenient to hide the amplifier inside of the TV cabinet or
bookshelf (but not on the TV itself).
