Step 3: Power on the amplifier
The driver automatically installs when the amplifier is first plugged into a de-
vice. The SHA900 should take over as the default audio device.
Note:
Volume controls are disabled on Windows, Mac, and iOS. Volume
should be adjusted only by using the amp volume knob for best performance.
Ensure that volume is maximized in iTunes or the Windows Media Player.
Firmware
Firmware is embedded software in each component that controls functional-
ity. Periodically, new versions of firmware are developed to incorporate addi-
tional features and enhancements. To take advantage of design improve-
ments, new versions of the firmware can be downloaded and installed using
the Shure Update Utility tool.
