Durable 2-channel (stereo) Amplifier With Source Override [best Value] [bnaFcJLs]

Connect an Alexa Echo Dot (Voice Assistant/Streamer) into Source Input 1 and let Alexa take priority over whatever is connected to Source Input 2.  Source 2 is heard until a signal is detected from Source 1 at which point the zone will instantly (less than 0.2 seconds) be switched to Source 1.  Our proprietary auto-detect-and-switch circuit detects input signals at significantly lower volume levels than standard auto-sensing circuits and without creating "false positives".

Use the Delay knob to set how much time should pass without a signal from Source 1, from a couple of seconds to a few minutes, before returning to Source 2.

A rotary volume control is provided on the front panel, but for most installs this will be set to a fixed "maximum" position when each of the connected sources includes a variable volume output.

Common connections for Source 2 include the variable audio output from a TV or the variable audio output from a zone in a distributed home audio system.

40 watts X 2 into 8 ohms or 70 watts X 2 into 4 ohms means you can connect one or two pairs of 8 ohm speakers and achieve more than enough volume, even in large rooms.

Made with a 6 foot captive power cable.  L-brackets included for optionally mounting behind a TV, nightstand, or just about anywhere else in the room.
