L. IEC POWER INLET: Using the included power cord, connect to a
grounded outlet in accordance with the INPUT POWER voltage and
frequency specified at the power inlet.
M. FUSE: Provides electrical over-current protection. With power
disconnected, replace a blown fuse only with one of the type and
rating specified on the amp’s rear panel.
N. PARALLEL SPEAKER OUTPUTS: Connect external speaker enclosures
here. For the Bassbreaker 45 combo, to use an external speaker enclo-
sure in combination with the internal speakers, plug external enclosure
into EXTENSION SPEAKER. To use an external speaker enclosure only,
plug external enclosure into MAIN SPEAKER (internal speakers will
automatically be disconnected).For the Bassbreaker 45 amp head, use
the MAIN SPEAKER jack when using only one enclosure (there will be
no sound if the MAIN SPEAKER jack is not used). See tables at right for
acceptable parallel speaker enclosure impedance combinations for the
Bassbreaker combo (above) and head (below) models.
O. IMPEDANCE SELECT: If no external enclosures are connected to
PARALLEL SPEAKER OUTPUTS (N), this switch should be set to the 16Ω
position. To avoid damage when using PARALLEL SPEAKER OUTPUTS,
this switch must be set in accordance with total impedance load as
shown in the tables at right for the Bassbreaker combo (above) and
head (below) models.
Using two speaker enclosures of different impedance ratings is not rec-
ommended. If using enclosures with different ratings, set IMPEDANCE
SELECT switch (O) to the lower of the two speaker enclosure ratings.
When using both speaker jacks, do not use an enclosure rated at less
than 4Ω. When using MAIN SPEAKER jack alone, do not use an enclo-
sure rated at more than 16Ω.
!
To avoid damaging the amp, put it in STANDBY mode (J) or turn it
off (K) when changing speaker connections and IMPEDANCE SELECT
switch (O) settings.
