This control lets you get that highly desirable, fat, warm sound of the Valvetronix
power stage being driven hard (a common trait of all great valve power amps), at
various levels. This will enable you to play comfortably in a small room or compro-
mising your all-important tone.
LINE/PHONE
Use this jack if you’re plugging directly in to a mixer, recording device, or if you’re
using headphones. The output from this jack is taken from immediately before the
ValveReactor power amp, and the character of the guitar amp cabinet is applied to it.
NOTE: Connecting headphones to this jack will mute the internal speaker.
EXTERNAL SPEAKER OUT jack
You can connect a guitar speaker cabinet to this jack.
NOTE: Sound will not be output from the internal speaker if you use the
EXTERNAL SPEAKER OUT jack.
NOTE: The AD15VT-XL and AD30VT-XL don’t have this jack.
Important: To ensure that your system works correctly, you must observe the follow-
ing points.
a) Don’t use an external speaker whose impedance is other than 8 ohms.
b) Don’t connect a speaker whose rated input capacity is less than 50 watts (100
watts for the AD100VT-XL). The speaker may be destroyed if you ignore this cau-
tion — not recommended!
c) You must use a speaker cable to connect an external speaker. Don’t use a
shielded cable like the one you use to connect a guitar to an amp.
d) You must turn off the power before connecting the cable. Connecting the cable
while the power is turned on may damage your amp.
LOOP SEND jack, RETURN jack
These are loop jacks that you can connect to your external effect processor. Con-
nect the SEND jack to the input of your external effect processor. Connect the
RETURN jack to the output of your external effect processor.
NOTE: The AD100VT has these jacks.
