SONAMP® 875D SE 8-CHANNEL AMPLIFIER

System 6: Using a K2 Keypad to Control the 875D SE’s BBE Sound Enhancement

Features: User can turn BBE Sound Enhancement ON/OFF from inside the listening zone

The Sonance Navigator K2 Keypad Controller can be used to manually turn the 875D SE’s BBE Sound Enhancement ON and OFF in the zone it is controlling. Connect the keypad’s RELAY and GROUND terminals to the 875D SE’s BBE CONTROL INPUT for that zone and program a button on the keypad’s LCD panel to toggle the Relay command ON and OFF. You can even re-label the button on the K2 to say “BBE ON”. Set the BBE LOW/HIGH switch for the zone to LOW for +6dB of BBE processing or to HIGH for +9dB of BBE processing. (Leave the zone’s BBE ON/OFF switch in the OFF position.)
