Cabinet Range | Marshall Amplification DBS 7400 instruction

ENGLISH

23. D.I. Level Selection Switch

Selects 0dB or -20dB D.I. output levels for maximum interfacing flexibility.

24. Balanced D.I. Output

For direct connection to recording or PA mixing desks and switchable pre or post EQ (16).

The D.I. output is fully transformer isolated to guarantee against problems with earth loops and hence an earth lift switch is not required.

25. Tuner Output Jack

Instrument level buffered output for direct connection to an electronic tuner.

27. Effects Return Jack

Jack socket to accept the output from an external effects processor. Note: (The output level of the effects loop is nominally centred around + 4 dB which makes it compatible with most rack effects processors).

28. Line Level Control

Rotary control providing level control of the line out from zero to +4dB.

29. Line Output Jack

Jack socket ideal for connection to home recording equipment.

26.Effects Send Jack

Jack socket to connect to the input of an external effects processor.

THE CABINET RANGE

Using the finest materials, construction techniques and specially custom designed loudspeakers, we have created a range of extraordinary bass cabinets which perfectly complement the power and performance of the Dynamic Bass System.

The loudspeakers required highly specialised research, to enable them to handle the high continuous power levels and awesome power peaks that the Dynamic Bass System is capable of producing.

These custom speakers all feature specially reinforced cone systems, high temperature voice coils and massive magnet assemblies, all housed in ultra rugged cast chassis.

Connections to the cabinets are via heavy-duty locking sockets to ensure a safe, no loss high powered termination.

Each cabinet is ported and carefully tuned to its matching speakers and integrates perfectly with other models in the range to cover the entire spectrum of bass sounds.

Model 7410 4x10 with Horn (800 watts RMS -4 Ohms).

This cabinet has an unusually deep bass response for it’s type. Superb transient attack is provided by the high frequency horn which features a 6 position attenuator control, from the horn fully off at one extreme to the horn fully on at the other extreme.

The 7410's tight and punchy performance totally suits upfront modern styles of bass playing.

Dimensions - Height 698mm x Width 698 mm x Depth 380mm.

Model 7412 4x12 (800 watts RMS -4 Ohms).

Recognising the enormous potential that the 4x12 cabinet has to offer for bass, considerable engineering time was devoted to the specially designed speakers and cabinet of the 7412.

Combining many of the best characteristics of the 2x15 and 4x10 cabinets together, the 7412 has plenty of bottom end with rapid transient attack. This is the ideal cabinet for playing situations requiring a single speaker cabinet with maximum tonal response.

Dimensions - Height 1000mm x Width 698mm x Depth 489mm.

Model 7215 2x15 (600 watts RMS -4 Ohms).

The model 7215 features drive units designed to achieve superb, high sensitivity bass response.

In addition to forming the foundation of a serious bass system when combined with either the 7410 or 7412, this unit’s complementary balanced high end provides enough presence and attack to allow it to be used on its own.

Dimensions - Height 1000mm x Width 698mm x Depth 489mm.

Note: (The RMS power handling figures are for comparison only when used with non Dynamic Bass System amplifiers. The peak capacity of these cabinets is individually matched to the performance of the Dynamic Bass System amplifier).

The inclusion of a built-in compressor is another defining characteristic of the DBS 7400. This technology aids in achieving a balance in dynamics, making sure that louder notes don't overpower softer ones. The compressor is invaluable for maintaining consistent sound quality, particularly during live performances where dynamics can vary dramatically.

Additionally, the DBS 7400 is equipped with an effects loop, allowing users to integrate their favorite pedals easily. This feature opens up creative possibilities for bassists, enabling them to experiment with various effects without compromising the integrity of their tone.

Durability is also a critical aspect of the DBS 7400 design. Built with robust materials, this amplifier is constructed to withstand the rigors of touring musicians, ensuring that it remains reliable gig after gig.
