22.AC LINE IN: Firmly plug the supplied AC power cord into this socket, pushing it in until it is fully seated. Plug the male end of the cord into a grounded AC outlet. DO NOT DEFEAT THE

GROUND PRONG OF THE AC PLUG!

23.FUSE: The fuse protects the amplifier from damage due to line current faults and other con- ditions. If the fuse blows, replace it only with the same size and type as listed on the amplifier.

24.POLARITY: Place this switch in the position that provides the least electrical buzz from the unit.

25.BIAS SECTION: These controls and LEDs allow the user to properly bias the power amp.

26.SLAVE OUT: This jack receives the same signal that is being sent to the power amp. It is useful for powering another amp (slave) from this unit’s preamp.

27.PREAMP OUT: This jack carries the post- Master (13) signal. It does not break the path to the power amp. This signal can be used to feed an external power amplifier, mixing console, or house PA system.

28.POWER AMP IN: This jack accepts a signal to be sent to the power amp and the Slave Out jack (26). It does break the path from the Preamp Out jack (27). This can be used as a post-Master (13) patch point.

29.LEVEL: This control adjusts the level of the signal at the Balanced Out jack (31).

30.PRE/POST: This switch selects a direct out from the bass (Pre) in the OUT position and the

preamp signal just before the Master (Post) in the IN position to be sent to the Balanced Out jack (31).

31.BALANCED OUT: This XLR-type jack is the output as selected by the Pre/Post switch and adjusted by the Level control (29). This signal can be used to feed an external power amplifier, mixing console, or house PA system.

32.EFFECTS LOOP SEND: This is a post-EQ,pre-Master (13) patch point send jack. It does not break the path through the preamp. When using an external signal processor, connect the INPUT of the effect to this jack using a shielded instrument cable to send the signal to the effect for processing.

33.EFFECTS LOOP RETURN: This is a pre- Master (13) patch point return jack. It breaks the path through the preamp. When using an exter- nal signal processor, connect the OUTPUT of the effect to this jack using a shielded instrument cable to feed the processed signal into the power amp section.

34.TUNER OUT: This is a direct output from the instrument which can be routed to a tuner. It is the only output that stays active when the Mute switch (3) is engaged.

35.FOOTSWITCH: This is a stereo jack which will operate with a standard dual footswitch. The tip of the plug controls the Mute operation, the ring controls the Graphic EQ operation, while the sleeve acts as a ground common to both. With the footswitch inserted, both the front panel and the footswitch Mute switches are active. The

front panel Graphic EQ switch (15) must be IN for the Graphic EQ footswitch to operate.

36.IMPEDANCE SELECTOR: Use this switch to match the output impedance of the amp to the speaker(s) being used (2 or 4 ohms). For help in deciding the impedance of your system, consult the chart below.

37.SPEAKERS: These jacks are provided for connecting speakers to the unit. While the 1/4” jacks are convenient, the Speakon® connector is preferred for carrying the heavy current from this amplifier.

NOTE: In some areas the 1/4” speaker jacks are not acceptable for use on amplifiers capable of high output power levels. For this reason your amplifier may have been shipped with the 1/4” jacks sealed – use only the Speakon® jack for connecting your speakers.

38.This is a 1/4-20 weld-nut which can be used to provide additional support for the rear of the unit.
