to operate under these conditions with lower distortion or without
having the overcurrent circuit kick in. The limiter reduces the peak
signal that is driving the power amp, thereby reducing its peak output
with the result of lower distortion. If you find yourself having to play in
extreme conditions that cause the amp or combo to have too much
distortion or even signal interruption, engage the limiter and see if that
helps the situation.
Power Amp
Connecting a Speaker
Speakers are connected via Neutrik Speakon connectors ("twist lock"
type) located on the rear panel. These connectors are used because
of their low contact resistance and non-shorting operation. The output
of each Speakon connector is wired to pole "1". Make sure the cables
you use to connect a speaker (and the speakers themselves) are
similarly wired.
The power amplifier is capable of driving speaker loads as low as 2
ohms. Use a high quality speaker system in order to get the maximum
performance from the amp. The Acoustic Image Coda EX, Corus EX
or Ten2 EX are excellent choices. As mentioned above, the power
amp is short circuit protected. If a short is connected to a speaker jack,
the output signal will be interrupted until the short is removed. Note
that when using a 1/4 inch type speaker plug, there is a momentary
short that occurs when the plug is put into the jack. That short can
cause a problem for the amp.
To be on the safe side, you should
shut off the power to the amp before connecting or
disconnecting speakers from the unit.
Operation Without a Speaker Connected
There may be times when you want to operate the amp without a
speaker connected to it. For example, you may want to record using
the Direct Out and don't want the output of the amp to be heard
through a speaker. In that case, set the master level to zero. By setting
the master level to zero, the signal to the power amp is turned off and it
is not driven without a speaker load which can damage the amp.
sure to set the master level to zero when a speaker load is not
connected to the amp. Operating the amp with no load and the
master level turned up can damage the amp.

Operation--Speaker Cabinets
Docking System
The amp head component of our combo amps can be removed and
used as a stand-alone amplifier. To remove the head unit, first
disconnect the speaker "pigtail" that connects the speaker cabinet to
the amp, then unscrew the docking screws on the rear panel until they
are loose. Grip the cabinet as shown and use the tips of your fingers to
push the head unit out. The fit is quite snug so some force will be
needed.
Once you have removed the head, you will notice the rubber feet
stored in a compartment on the bottom. Remove the feet and screw
them into the four positions on the bottom of the head. When you want
to put the head back into the cabinet, you will have to remove the feet
and put them back into the storage compartment.
To reinsert the head unit, grip the cabinet as shown and push it in with
your thumbs. Again, the fit is snug so some force will be needed. Once
the head unit is in place, tighten the docking screws to pull the head
tight to the docking plate. Reconnect the speaker cable and the unit is
ready to go.
Speaker Placement (Combos or Extension Cabs)
The omnidirectional low frequency output of our speaker cabinets
makes speaker placement relatively noncritical. You will easily be
heard all over the bandstand no matter where one or more are
Be
located. However, best results are obtained when the cabinet is
placed on the floor. Putting the unit on a shelf or stand will reduce
bass frequencies. There may be circumstances where this is
desirable. Feel free to experiment to find the sound that is best for you.
Tilt Mechanism
In some settings, such as a hollow stage or small, "boomy" room, your
amp or enclosure will produce too much bass. One way to cut
unwanted bass output is to use the built in tilt back feature to lift the
front of the cabinet, reducing the coupling to the floor. To do this, pull
the stand into its forward position and set the combo in place on the
floor. The stand is spring loaded so when you pick up the unit, the
stand will spring back into its storage position. You may want to use
