Powering the Amplifier
Power Cord (see Figure 4)
The Sonamp 875D SE features a removable IEC power cord. Plug the female end of the power
cord into the Power Cord Connector on the amplifier’s rear panel and plug the male end into a
20-amp grounded wall socket. DO NOT plug the power cord into an AC outlet on your
preamplifier/receiver.

NOTE: If you need to use an extension cord, use only a heavy-duty (14-gauge or
larger) extension cord to avoid starving the amplifier of all the current
necessary for full-power operation.

1. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet and from the amplifier’s Power Cord Connector.
2. Insert a flat-blade screwdriver or similar tool into the empty Power Cord Connector socket and gently pry the fuse holder out
of its socket.
3. Install the proper fuse in the fuse holder and replace the fuse holder back into its socket next to the power cord connection.
When the amplifier is operating, the fuse will blow to protect it from possible internal parts failure. NEVER replace the fuse
with any size other than that indicated on the rear panel to avoid more serious damage and the risk of fire. Substitution
of a larger fuse may create serious damage to internal parts and will void your Sonance warranty.
A.C. ON LED (see Figure 5)
The AC ON LED indicates that the amplifier’s power cord is plugged-into a live AC outlet and
its P
OWER button is ON. If the amplifier’s AC fuse ever opens, this LED will go out. To use the
A
UTO-ON feature (see page 12), this LED must remain ON at all times.
ACTIVE LED (see Figure 5)
The amplifier’s ACTIVE LED will illuminate whenever any zone is active. Each zone’s STATUS
INDICATORS (see
Figure 3
) also contain an ACTIVE LED that will illuminate whenever that particular
zone is ON.
