16.FAN: This temperature controlled, variable speed fan draws cool air into the amplifier, forcing heat out through the exhaust vents (also on the rear panel, between the speaker jacks and the power amp in jack). Never block the vent holes or the fan openings.
NOTE: It is not uncommon for the fan to remain off when the amplifier is first powered up.
17.FUSE: This protects the unit from damage due to overload conditions or power line surges. If the fuse blows, replace it only with the same size and type.
18.AC LINE IN: Firmly plug the sup- plied AC power cord into this socket, pushing it in until it is fully seated. Plug the male end of the cord into a ground- ed AC outlet. DO NOT DEFEAT THE
GROUND PRONG OF THE AC PLUG!
19.SPEAKER OUTPUTS: Use these jacks to connect the amplifier to your speaker(s) using cables terminated with 1/4” plugs. Always use
NOTE: When connecting multiple speaker cabinets to the amplifier, keep the overall impedance at or above four ohms! The following chart shows the total impedance load when connecting speaker cabinets in parallel:
Cabinet | # of | Total |
Impedance | Cabs | Impedance |
8Ω | 2 | 4Ω |
16Ω | 2 | 8Ω |
16Ω | 4 | 4Ω |

20.POWER AMP IN: This mono jack allows you to feed the preamp output of another amplifier to the input of the internal power amp. This disconnects the SVT’s preamp.

22.EFFECTS RETURN: To use an external effects device, connect the OUTPUT of the device to the Return jack using a shielded cable. This feeds the processed signal into the amp’s Master section.
23. EFFECTS SEND: Connect the out- |
put from the Send jack to the INPUT of |
your effects using shielded cable. This |

25. PRE/POST SWITCH: You can |
select either Pre or Post EQ for the sig- |
nal at the Balanced Out jack (#26) with |
this switch. With the switch in the OUT |
position, the signal at the jacks will be |
affected by any EQ or boost settings. |
With the switch in, the signal is |
and is controlled and modified by the |
tone controls, Graphic EQ, and Effects |
Loop. |
26. BALANCED OUTPUT: This XLR- |
type connector supplies a balanced |
preamp output signal for connecting to |
a house mixing board, recording con- |
sole or external amplifiers with bal- |
anced inputs. The signal can be set to |
I M P O RTA N T N O T E A B O U T C E RTA I N E X P O RT UNITS: In some areas 1/4” speaker jacks are not acceptable for use on amplifiers capable of high out- put power levels. For this reason the Speaker jacks on your amplifier may resemble the illustration to the right. Connect the amplifier to your speaker(s) using cables rated for very high output power, terminated with the appropriate connectors.
