The AudioSource AD1002 stereo power amp makes a great choice for powering speakers in your multi-room sound system. This versatile amp's dual line-level inputs let you enjoy sound from one main music source plus and additional "local" audio source, switching automatically between the two.
Say you have a network audio player—such as a Sonos Port— as your primary source feeding the AD1002's main input. Any time you fire up the Sonos player, your AD1002 turns itself on and sends the music to your speakers. Then, if you connect another music source like a CD player or portable music player to the secondary local "Interrupt" input, the amp will switch to that source whenever it senses an incoming music signal. When a CD stops playing, the AD1002 will automatically switch back to the Sonos. There's no need to manually switch inputs.
The AD1002 can power one or two pairs of speakers. Use it in stereo mode, or add a second amp and bridge them for a more powerful dual-mono setup. This amp's low-profile design makes it easy to place in a room where space is tight. Place it on a shelf or stand, or rack mount one or multiple units with the included hardware.
With loop output and 12-volt trigger input and output, the AD1002 provides the power and flexibility to support a wide range of multi-room system configurations.
