1001RB Series Combos
1001RB Series Combos
The 1001RB Series combos deliver the1001RB’s unique features and distinct sound by using a variety of internal speaker configurations, GK’s RBH cabinet technology and a unique Lock N’ Roll transport system.
Speaker Configurations:
1001RB/115 One 8 Ohm 15″ speaker and one 8 Ohm horn
1001RB/210 Two 16 Ohm 10″ speakers (wired in parallel for an 8 Ohm equivalent load)and one 8 Ohm horn
The 1001RB combo electronics are identical to the1001RB head and are rated for the same maximum power output and speaker load (540W into 4 Ohms, and 50W into 4 Ohms). Maximum power is achieved by connecting one 8 Ohm extension cabinet (such as the 210RBH, 410RBH, or 115RBH) in addition to the combo’s internal 8 Ohm speaker load. To drive more than one extension cabinet, the combo’s internal speaker can be disconnected by unplugging the Speakon cable connected to the combo’s back panel. Below is a detailed description of the maxi- mum loads the combos can drive.
Maximum recommended load with the internal speaker connected:
One 8 Ohm cabinet on the 540W Amp.
One 8 Ohm horn on the 50W Amp.
Maximum recommended load with the internal speaker disconnected:
One 4 Ohm, or Two 8 Ohm cabinets on the 540W Amp. One or Two 8 Ohm horns on the 50W Amp.
Lock N’ Roll Transport System:
The Lock N’ Roll transport system is designed for quick and easy rolling of the combo on flat surfaces such as carpet, flooring, pavement, etc. To engage the Lock N’ Roll handle, first move the combo into the upright position (front perpendicular to the ground). Next, stand behind the cabinet and lift the Lock N’ Roll handle up with your right hand. The handle will lock into place after about 1 1/2 feet. Finally, grab the handle and tilt towards the back of the combo. The wheels on the bottom of the cabinet will automatically engage and allow smooth rolling.
To disengage the Lock N’ Roll system, first return the combo to its upright position and stand behind the unit. Next, with your left hand, pull the locking latch at the base of the handle to your left, while pushing the handle down gently with your right hand. Finally, push the handle down until it stops and is flush with the top of the combo.
The 1001RB Series combos are designed for maximum setup versatility to accommodate a variety of playing situations. For practicing and close monitoring situations, tilt the cabinet back into its “Rock Back” position. For stronger bass and audience projection, leave the combo in the upright position.
