ASAP3D SE Features/Benefits
Feature: Automatic House/Local Source Switching
Benefit:
• Automatically switches a pair of speakers between two different input sources. (Typically between a
whole-home audio system that normally plays in the area and a local source, such as a TV set.)
• The ASAP3D SE will automatically override the whole-home system whenever the local source is turned
on. One of several different trigger methods can be used.
Typical Application:
A typical application would be to use the ASAP3D SE to power and automatically switch a pair of speak-
ers 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. With the ASAP3D SE’s Mono Variable Output feeding
a local-zone powered subwoofer, this installation would provide much better sound quality than the TV
could supply on its own.

ASAP3D SE LOCAL SOURCE (LEFT) AND HOUSE SOURCE (RIGHT) INPUT CONNECTIONS
Feature: Flexible Automatic Triggering
Benefit:
• Automatic switching from the
House
to the
Local
source can be triggered in four different ways:
– By the presence of an audio signal at the Local line or speaker inputs;
– When a TV connected to the ASAP3D SE’s AC outlet is turned ON;
– By an external control voltage connected to the amplifier’s VOLTAGE TRIGGER input;
– By an IR controller connected to the amplifier’s IR input.
• This flexibility allows the ASAP3D SE to be used by installers who perform basic installations (featuring
autoformer volume controls), by installers who perform more elaborate installations (featuring remote
switching and central preamp control), and by installers who install hi-end systems (featuring IR control).
Feature: IR Control
Benefit:
• IR input allows volume, muting and BBE ON/OFF to be controlled by an IR keypad controller.
(
House/Local
input selection can also be made via IR when IR is the sole trigger method selected.)
• IR output allows OptiLinQ®emitters to pass 3rd-party control signals to intended components.
• IR Bus passes IR signals from multiple ASAP3D SEs to single set of emitters.
• Amp can be used in more sophisticated installations.

ASAP3D SE IR CONTROL CONNECTIONS
Feature: ICEpower Digital Amplification
Benefit:
• Highly efficient — produces high power in a 1U high/½ rack width package.
• Very little heat generation.
• Expands installation options.
• Provides significant energy savings over conventional amplifier designs.
Feature: BBE Sound Enhancement
Benefit:
• Improves the presence and detail of speakers, especially at lower listening volumes
• Distributed audio systems playing background music sound better at quiet volume levels.
• Restores clarity and definition to spoken voices, making paging systems easier to understand without
having to run them at high volumes.
Installation Examples
The next three pages show three examples of different audio and audio/video systems that can be
assembled using one or more ASAP3D SE amplifiers.

The Illustration below shows the typical system connections when triggering the ASAP3D SE via IR from a
keypad controller or other IR control device. If multiple ASAP3D SEs are being used their IR BUS
connections can be linked, allowing each of their IR control devices to send signals to a single set of IR
emitters on a set of source components being shared by all the systems.
