Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the SpeakerCraft SonicAir SA 2.1 Wireless Speaker
Transmitter and Receiver System!
The SA 2.1 solves the age-old problem of how to put speakers where you want them without having
unsightly speaker wire run around baseboards, across the floor or having to pull them through walls.
The SA 2.1 Transmitter can connect to just about any audio source. It then broadcasts audio content
as wireless RF (radio frequency) signals to the SA 2.1 Receiver, that can be placed up to seventy feet
away (depending upon the local RF environment).
The SA 2.1 Transmitter features both stereo line level and speaker level audio inputs. The Pre-Amp and
Speaker Level Inputs both feature audio sensing circuitry that automatically turns the SA 2.1 system
on when audio input signals are detected. The system will automatically turn off (standby) when no
audio signals have been detected for more than ten minutes.
In addition to regular stereo speaker applications, the speaker level inputs provide convenience for
A/V system rear speaker placement in surround sound systems. The SA 2.1 Transmitter can be con-
nected to the rear channel speaker terminals on the A/V receiver and then broadcast the rear chan-
nel speaker signals to the SA 2.1 Receiver, located with the rear channel speakers. This eliminates hav-
ing unsightly and potentially hazardous speaker wires run around baseboards or across the floor.
The SA 2.1 system also increases the flexibility of an audio system from a single room system to a multi-
room system. With an audio receiver directly connected to the main room speakers in a normal con-
figuration, the audio receiver ‘B’ speakers or pre-amp output can be connected to the SA 2.1 Trans-
mitter for broadcast to the SA 2.1 Receiver in the second room, creating a multi-room audio system
without having to pull wires!
The SA 2.1 Receiver adds additional flexibility with its local Auxiliary Input. With the SA 2.1 system
configured as a multi-room system, this line level, stereo 3.5mm mini jack allows connection of a lo-
cal source in the remote room. This allows selection of the ‘house’ system audio source or the local
source which could be a CD or MP3 player, video game, computer, cable box, or any other audio
source with a line level output. The SA 2.1 Receiver is controlled locally with the SA 2.1 IR Remote, al-
lowing independent source selection and volume/mute control in the remote room.
The SA 2.1 Receiver has a solid built-in 50 Watts per channel amplifier that will make any audio source
sound great when driven through appropriately rated 8 ohm speakers.
For those who want some extra kick, the SA 2.1 Receiver also features a full-band Sub Out that can
be connected to a subwoofer with a line level input, and variable level and crossover controls. This
‘wireless subwoofer’ application allows optimizing main room subwoofer placement, without the
restriction of having to run unsightly audio cable to the sub. The SA 2.1 Receiver Sub-Out adds that
same flexibility to multi-room applications, allowing not only the addition of a subwoofer to the sec-
ond room, but unrestricted placement for optimum performance and convenience. The pre-installed
Receiver Clip and included Mounting Bracket allow convenient and inconspicuous mounting of the
SA 2.1 Receiver directly to a powered subwoofer.
The SpeakerCraft SonicAir SA 2.1 Wireless Speaker Transmitter and Receiver System gives you music
where you want it...not just where the speaker wires are.
