Important Safety Information

You should always follow these basic safety precautions when using 
your Sonamp DSP 2-150, to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, 
and injury to persons:

1. 

Read and retain instructions:

 Read all the safety and 

operating instructions before operating the amplifier, and 
retain them for future reference.

2. 

Heed warnings:

 Adhere to all warnings and precautions listed 

on the amplifier and in the operating instructions.

3. 

Follow instructions: 

Follow all operating instructions.

4. 

Water:

 Never use the amplifier next to water.

5. 

Carts and stands:

 The amplifier should 

be used only with a cart or stand that is 
recommended by the manufacturer. An 
amplifier and cart combination should be 
moved with care.

6. 

CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT USE 
THE POLARIZED PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD, 
RECEPTACLE, OR OTHER OUTLETS UNLESS THE BLADES 
CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.

7. 

Ventilation:

 Situate the amplifier so that its location does not 

interfere with its proper ventilation.

8.

 Heat:

 Situate the amplifier away from heat sources such as 

radiators, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that 
produce heat.

9. 

Grounding or polarization:

 Grounding or polarization are 

precautions that should be taken so that these attributes are  
not defeated.

10. 

Power-cord protection:

 Route power supply cords so that 

they will not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or  
against them.

11. 

Cleaning:

 To clean the amplifier, use “canned air” or wipe the 

amplifier with a soft cloth. Do not use solvents, as they may 
damage the amplifier.

12. 

Non-use periods:

 Unplug the amplifier’s power cord from the 

outlet when the amplifier will be left unused for a long period 
of time.

13. 

Object entry:

 Care should be taken so that objects do not fall 

through the opening of the enclosure.

14. 

Moisture:

 Do not expose the amplifier to dripping or splashing. 

Do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on  
the amplifier.

15. 

Damage requiring service:

 Have the amplifier serviced by a 

qualified service personnel when:

 

• The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged.

  • Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into 

   the amplifier.

 

• The amplifier has been exposed to rain.

 

• The amplifier does not appear to operate normally or exhibits 
   a marked change in performance.

 

• The amplifier has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

16. 

Servicing:

 The user should not attempt to service the amplifier 

beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other 
servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

17. 

Lifting: 

Improper lifting of the 11 lbs. DSP 2-150 amp can cause  

personal injury. 

18. 

Power requirement:

 Do not connect the Sonamp to the 

accessory outlet of any other component. A minimum 15 amp 
(20 amp preferred) grounded wall outlet is required.

WARNING: THE POWER (MAINS) PLUG SERVES AS THE 

 

AMPLIFIER’S DISCONNECT DEVICE. THE DISCONNECT DEVICE 
SHALL REMAIN READILY OPERABLE DURING OPERATION. 
TO ENSURE THAT THE DISCONNECT DEVICE (POWER PLUG) 
IS EASILY ACCESSIBLE, THE USER SHALL NOT PLACE THE 
AMPLIFIER IN A CONFINED AREA DURING OPERATION.

19. 

Storms:

 To prevent damage to components, unplug all 

 

electronic equipment during thunderstorms.
