INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of another great Phonic
product. The iAMP3020DSP and iAMP4020DSP were
carefully designed so as to provide phenomenal power
in a low-weight, easily-manageable construction that is
rack-mountable. Phonic combines its revolutionary D-class
amplifier technology with stable, reliable power supplies
for fantastic amplification even under the most rigorous of
conditions. The built-in DSP provides simple yet advanced
signal processing for enhancing your sound.
We know how eager you are to get started – getting the amp
out and hooking all your gear up is probably your number
one priority right now – but before you do, we strongly
urge you to take a look through this manual. Inside, you
will find important facts and figures on the set up, use and
applications of your brand new iAMP DSP. Remember that
safe operation of an amplifier is of the utmost importance,
so we strongly recommend that users heed all warnings
and instructions listed in this manual.

FRONT PANEL

1. Gain Controls
These controls adjust the incoming level received by the
respective channel 1 and channel 2 input jacks on the rear
of the iAMP. It is idea to set these controls to the right-
most position to allow optimal use of the incoming signal
whenever possible.
Whenever the gain controls are used, the resulting output
signal levels will appear on screen. The gain controls can
be locked using the DSP software. If at any point your fad-
ers do not allow you to adjust the output level, go into the
following menus: "Out" > "VR" > "Lock" to reactivate them.
2. Signal LED
These LED indicators will light up whenever the iAMP DSP
produces a signal through the corresponding input chan-
nels, equal to about 4 volts RMS.
3. Level LEDs
These LEDs will illuminate when the output level of the
iAMP reaches the levels indicated, -20 and 0 dB. For best
results, set the Gain controls to a level that allows the -20
indicator flash steadily.
4. Clip LED
The Clip LED will light up just prior to the clipping of the
output signal, giving users a clear way to know whether
to lower the Gain controls to reduce the outgoing signal.
A steady flashing or constant illumination will require at-
tention by the user, whereas an occasional flash doesn't
necessarily indicate immediate issues.
5. Power Switch
This switch is used to activate and deactivate the iAMP
DSP. Be sure to power on all input devices, including mix-
ers and/or signal processors before turning the iAMP DSP
on, and ensure the iAMP DSP is the first device you turn
off. When the iAMP DSP is turned off, your current settings
will be automatically saved.
