Stealth SP-1 Input Selector and Phono Preamp

Stealth SP-1 (Remote Control)

The Stealth SP-1 can be used with its own 

compact IR remote control, or it can be controlled 

by the remote control that is included with the 

Stealth DC-1. The following section describes the 

included SP-1 compact remote control.

Note: You must remove the insulator tab 

from the batteries in the Stealth SP-1 

remote control before using it for the first 

time. (See the Hardware Configuration 

section for details.) 

1. Standby button

The Standby button toggles the power on the 

SP-1 On and Off.

Note: The Stealth SP-1 will not respond to 

the Standby button on the remote control 

unless the rear panel Power switch is first 

turned On.  

2. Input Selector buttons

Press one of these buttons to select an input, 

which is then routed to the output. When an 

input is selected, the halo ring around the button 

for the selected input on the front of the SP-1 will 

illuminate. 

Input 1 through Input 3 are entirely passive line 

level analog inputs switched by precision relays, 

and so add virtually no noise or distortion to the 

signal. The Phono button selects the SP-1’s high 

performance internal phono preamp.

Note: The four sides of the control ring are 

buttons, and you press them to select the 

Input. The ring does not rotate or tilt.

3. Vol + and Vol - buttons (used only with DC-1)

The Vol+ and Vol- have no function on the SP-1 itself. If you are using your Stealth 

SP-1 with a Stealth DC-1, these buttons will operate the Volume Control on your DC-1.
