Each Wisdom Audio component has a short delay built into its DC trigger 
system to facilitate a staggered turn-on sequence.

Your Wisdom Audio dealer can help you take advantage of these design 
features to maximize your system’s convenience and versatility.

Ethernet port
Not implemented at this time. Reserved for possible future use. 

Power Switch
An 

AC mains switch 

is located adjacent to the power cord on the rear panel 

of the SW-1. This switch may be used to disconnect the unit from the AC 
mains without having to actually unplug the SW-1 from the wall outlet. 

If you plan to be away for an extended period, or have any other reason to 
turn the SW-1 completely off, you may either unplug the SW-1 or you may 
use the 

AC mains switch

 

Important! 

As with all your electronics, we suggest you completely disconnect 
the SW-1 from the AC mains during severe electrical storms. 

AC Mains Input and Fuse Holder
A 15-ampere IEC standard power cord is used with the SW-1. A high qual-
ity 15-ampere AC mains cord is included with the product, although the 
use of the standardized IEC receptacle means that you may easily substi-
tute another high quality AC mains cord if you wish. 

 

Warning! 

Your new Wisdom Audio SW-1 has been safety-tested and is 
designed for operation with a three-conductor power cord. Do not 
defeat the “third pin” or earth ground of the AC power cord.

We recommend that care be taken to ensure that all AC plugs for the 
equipment in the system be wired so as to ensure proper AC polarity. 
Doing so will minimize noise in the system. 

 

Danger! 

Potentially dangerous voltages and current capabilities exist within 
your SW-1. Do not attempt to open any portion of the SW-1’s 
cabinet. There are no user-serviceable parts inside your SW-1. All 
service of this product must be referred to a qualified Wisdom Audio 
dealer or distributor.

In the U.S., a simple AC mains tester (found at any hardware store) can 
test to ensure that your electrical outlets are wired properly. Elsewhere in 
the world (for example, in European Union countries), the AC mains plugs 
themselves are not always polarized. Your dealer can test for the proper 
orientation of the plug in the outlet. In such a case, it is good practice to
