Rear Panel Features
AC Receptacle: The power cord is detachable and
1
plugs in here.
Remote Trigger: This feature is used when using
2
multiple 2001RBs as 'master' and 'slave' units. It
allows you to turn on all amplifiers at the same time,
when the 'master' unit is powered on. Accepts the
+12VDC signal from the 'master' 2001RB's Trigger
Out jack to activate or turn on, the 'slave' 2001RBs
when in standby mode. Provides +12VDC as a trigger
output to remotely turn on a 'slave' 2001RB
Right 'Speakon' Outputs: Enables biamp operation
3
by connecting a GK biamp compatible cabinet with a 4
conductor Speakon cable. This connects the 50W
amplifier allowing the Tweeter control on the front
panel to control the signal going to the horn. See Biamp
and Normal Operation on page 9 for more information.
Right Speaker Out: 540W power amp output for
4
Full-Range operation only. They deliver 540 watts into
2 Ohms or 360 watts into 4 Ohms. Lower impedances
should not be used.
Right Level: This adjusts the output level of the right
5
channel only in dual-mono mode.
Bridge Mode: This allows one to switch from
6
Dual/Mono to Bridge mode.
Left Speaker Out: 540W power amp output for
7
Full-Range operation only. They deliver 540 watts into
2 Ohms or 360 watts into 4 Ohms. Lower impedances
should not be used.
Left/Bridged Speakon Outputs: Enables biamp
8
operation by connecting a GK bi-ampable cabinet with
a 4 conductor Speakon cable. This connects the 50W
amplifier allowing the tweeter control on the front
panel to control the signal going to the horn. See Biamp
and Normal Operation on page 9 for more information.
These Speakon outputs also enable bridged mode
operation. When in bridged mode, the 2001RB will be
in a simultaneous bridged/biamp mode, since the 50W
horn amplifiers are always active (in the clean channel
only) unless you choose to use the 'horn mute' feature,
via the RFB-III footswitch.

Footswitch: Provides a means to hook up the RFB-III,
three button footswitch to your amplifier, with a
standard 5 pin DIN (MIDI) cable. The RFB-III allows
remote Channel Switching (Level A or Level B), Horn
Mute (when in the clean channel) and Tuning Mute
Direct Out: Use this balanced adjustable (with the
level control #13) output to connect to a P.A. system.
Gnd/Lift Switch: This switch disconnects the ground
on the balanced, XLR output to eliminate hum and
buzz when connecting to equipment that is running on
a different ground system.
Direct Out/Pre/Post EQ: Selects whether the direct
out signal is before or after the E.Q.
Level: This is the volume control for the direct out
Send, Return & Tuner: Line level output that is post
EQ and pre Boost. Used when sending a full range
mono signal to an external device (effects, processors,
etc.) Accepts line level return from external effects that
are connected in a series loop. Output comes directly
off the input stage and can be patched to a tuner with a
shielded patch cord. This output is unaffected by the
tuning mute feature.
Chain In & Chain Out: This 'daisy chain' feature is
used when multiple 2001RBs are used as 'master' and
'slave' units. Both jacks are stereo, where the tip is the
woofer output and the ring is the horn output. When the
master amp's Chain out signal is input to the slave
amp's Chain in, the slave amp's preamp/tone control
section is bypassed completely, and will serve as a
straight power amp only. This output is used to daisy
chain or connect other slave amps to the master amp.
The signal going into the slave amp's Chain in is the
same signal coming out of the Chain out. This
eliminates the need for special Y adaptor when using
the Daisy Chain feature, the stereo cable cord as short
as possible to reduce hum/noise.
