Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Xpress D2.1, Digital 2.1 channel audio
amplifier!
The compact size and advanced design of the D2.1 deliver a whole lot more than just great,
powerful, clear audio in a small package. The D2.1 delivers a true 50 Watts at 8 Ohms, making
it the perfect companion for all Xpress in ceiling and in wall speakers. Though we’d rather that
you used our speakers, the D2.1 will also team up nicely with other branded speakers...when
those situations are just unavoidable.
Are you a bass freak? If so, the D2.1 has a line level subwoofer output that can be used to
drive an Xpress subwoofer amplifier and subwoofer for additional bass extension and pres-
ence. (Of course, if you have to, you can use other branded amps and subs, but c’mon...Get
Beale!)
Beyond all of the great audio amplification and subwoofer flexibility, are the other great fea-
tures that make the D2.1 so powerful. Let’s start with three audio inputs, including stereo line
level, Digital Optical and a special Bluetooth streaming input. All three inputs are auto-sensing
so when the music plays on any source, the D2.1 will automatically turn ON making system
control as easy as pressing the play button or turning on the TV.
The D2.1 also features IR control from the D2.1 IR Remote for source selection, volume, mute,
EQ. The IR Remote also features commands for Bluetooth device control for most current
Bluetooth devices. (Even though the D2.1 is auto-sensing we have also provided IR control
of power ON/OFF, for applications where manual power is preferable.) The built-in IR eye,
increases installation location options in that by using an IR control system, and yes we make
those too, the D2.1 can be hidden away in a cabinet or closet and still be controlled via remote
control.
Got Bluetooth? Good...so do we! The Xpress Bluetooth Module will interface with most cur-
rent Bluetooth devices for streaming audio from smartphones, tablets and other Bluetooth
devices. The D2.1 features a special port for the Bluetooth Module that not only acts as an
audio input, but also outputs play commands to the Bluetooth device, when triggered by the
D2.1 IR Remote!
So let’s see...compact size, big power, sub out, three audio inputs, auto-sensing, IR control of
the amp and a Bluetooth device, wow, that’s a whole lot of stuff right?
Well there’s more...like the D2.1 Setup App.
The Setup App communicates with the D2.1 via the Bluetooth Module. The App allows access
to and control of typical functions like volume, balance, sub level and source select but there’s
more to it than that. Like the ability to create, store and recall different amp setup configura-
tions. Max output limiting. Select and set custom EQ settings that can then be selected with
the IR Remote. Auto-sense ON/OFF with source priority that determines which source plays
if more than one source is playing at the same time and variable auto-OFF delay. The App also
includes configurable sub/LFE selection, variable crossover, slope and phase with a variable
high-pass setting for main speaker low frequency cutoff for fine tuning the amp and speakers
to the given room environment.
So yes, the best things do come in small packages.
Please read and follow the instructions in this User Guide to assure you are getting the most
from your new Xpress D2.1 Digital 2.1 Channel Amplifier.

1. AC POWER TERMINAL (100-240V-50/60Hz 2.5A) - Universal power connector. Automat-
ically selects AC power mode (110VAC/220VAC) when connected to AC power. After all
connections have been made, connect the supplied AC Power Cord to an unswitched AC
power outlet.
2. IR SENSOR - IR sensor ‘sees’ the IR commands from the D2.1 IR Remote, or other properly
configured programmable remote to control D2.1 Power, Volume, EQ Input, etc.
3. LINE IN (L&R) - Two RCA jacks. Analog audio sensing input. When an audio signal is pres-
ent on these jacks the amplifier will turn ON. The amp will enter sleep mode when no
audio input has been sensed for a configurable delay to save energy. Using a stereo RCA
cable with gold ends, connect to the L&R line level audio output on a source to be played
though the D2.1. If the source has variable output be sure to lower the volume on the
source prior to turning the source and amp on the avoid unintentional damage to the D2.1
and/or speakers. Set source to an appropriate output level during audio level setup.
4. SUB OUT - One RCA jack. Outputs line level low frequency content to a powered
subwoofer. Using a mono RCA cable, connect to the Sub IN or LFE jack on a powered
subwoofer.
5. SPEAKER TERMINALS - Four-position plug-in screw terminal. Outputs speaker level audio
to left, right channel speakers or a sound bar. Using 16AWG (min) speaker wire, connect to
the appropriate speaker terminals on a sound bar or left and right speakers. Before con-
necting the speaker wire to the amp, twist the ends of the speaker wire so there are no
strays that can cause shorts.
6. OPTICAL IN - S/PDIF Optical Terminal. Digital audio sensing input. When an audio signal is
present on this terminal, the amplifier will turn ON. The amp will enter sleep mode when
no audio input has been sensed for a configurable delay to save energy. Using an optical
audio cable, connect to the Optical output of a TV or other device to be played through the
D2.1.

7. RECEIVER IN - RJ45 Connector. Allows connection of the Xpress Bluetooth Streaming
Audio/Setup Module. Allows setup of the D2.1 via D2.1 Setup App and Bluetooth Module.
Also allows IR control of a connected Bluetooth streaming device via the Xpress Bluetooth
Module, using the D2.1 IR Remote or other properly programmed IR System Remote.
Using Cat5/5e/6 cable, connect to the RJ45 jack on the Xpress Bluetooth Setup/Streaming
Module.
8. STATUS - LED flashes or illuminates solid to indicate various setup modes.
Solid ON - Learn Mode
One Flash - Ready to learn Power, Volume UP, Volume DOWN, Mute, IN 3
Solid ON 1 Second - confirms learned command
OFF - Learn Mode OFF
9. USB - Provides 5VDC to Xpress Accessories.
D2.1 Side Vents
Even though the D2.1 will typical run cool, the side vents allow air to circulate through the
chassis allowing optimum performance, and besides...they just look cool...get it...air vents...
look cool...never mind...
One serious item...please be sure to not block the vents with wires or other objects that will
block the free flow of air through the amp.

SHELF MOUNT
The D2.1 can be conveniently mounted on a shelf top as shown. Use wood screws to secure
the amp to the shelf to avoid having the amp slide off the shelf and possibly damage the amp,
connected cables or other equipment. Leave room for wires. Allow adequate space for airflow.
Do not set objects on top of the amp.

WALL MOUNT
The D2.1 can be wall mounted to the inside of an equipment cabinet or regular wall surface.
A sheet of plywood or particle board attached to wall studs makes a good mounting surface,
otherwise use proper drywall anchors to assure a secure mount. Install wood screws at the
spacing of the mounting bracket keyholes. Slip the amp (connector plate end down) over the
screw heads and then slide the amp down to lock the amp in place. Tighten the screws to
secure the amp to the wall. Leave room for wires. Allow adequate space for airflow. Do not
set objects on top of the amp.

Operation
You don’t need to be a brain surgeon to perform these operations...
ON/OFF
The D2.1 is auto-sensing, so typically once the system is installed and setup, the power
will automatically turn ON with the presence of an audio signal on either the Digital Optical
IN, Line IN or Receiver IN. The amp will automatically turn OFF when no audio signal has
been detected for the delay set using the Setup App.
