Yeah, right!! You gotta be kidding!!!
Appendix IV: About Audio Cables
The connection between your electric guitar and the AxSys are your
musicÕs lifeline, so use only high quality cables. These should be low-
capacitance shielded cables with a stranded (not solid) internal conductor
and a low-resistance shield. Although quality cables cost more, they do
make a difference. Observe the following precautions:
¥ Do not place audio cable on or near AC power cords.
¥ Avoid running audio cable near sources of electromagnetic
interference such as transformers, monitors, computers, etc.
¥ Do not place cable where it can be stepped on. Stepping on a cable may
not cause immediate damage, but it can compress the insulation
between the center conductor and shield (degrading performance) or
reduce the cableÕs reliability.
¥ Avoid twisting the cable or having it make sharp, right angle turns.
¥ Never unplug a cable by pulling on the wire itself. Always unplug by
firmly grasping the body of the plug, pulling directly outward.
¥ Although Line 6 does not endorse any specific product, chemicals such
as Tweak and Cramolin, when applied to electrical connectors, are
claimed to improve the electrical contact.
Appendix V: Using External Speaker Cabinets
As an alternative to the AxSysÕ built in pair of 12" speakers, you may
connect external speakers to the rear panel LEFT SPEAKER and RIGHT
SPEAKER jacks. These jacks are designed for use with 8 ohm speakers only.
