The HEADPHONES jack is for headphones. When you plug in your headphones, the built-in loudspeaker is muted.

+The headphone signal can also be routed to a mixing console or sound reinforcement system. Connect the headphone output on your AT108 to the line input (LINE IN) on the console (for example, BEHRINGER EURORACK UB1222FX-PRO). Please use a mono cable for this application.

+Some headphones produce distortion if the volume level is too high. Please cut back the volume control until the distortion disappears.

Use the POWER switch to switch on your AT108. The POWER switch should be set to “Off” before you connect your amp to the mains.

+Please note: The POWER switch does not disconnect the unit from the mains. Unplug the power cord when you don’t want to use the unit for some time.
