BEFORE YOU PLUG IN
Bass amplification embraces a mixture of technologies in amplification and to ensure you achieve the maximum
performance from your cabinet and amplifier it is important to ensure you combine the right equipment for your
needs.
Hybrid and non all tube product*
These products can often operate at a variety of loads (known as impedance) this load describes the resistance
provided by the speakers inside the cabinet you plug into. As a general rule the lower the impedance an amplifier
is used at the higher the output of the amplifier will be (Excludes All Tube Product) To ensure you choose the
right cabinet make sure that it meets both the Impedance requirements and the power handling (Wattage) of your
amplifier. Plugging into the wrong impedance or combining the wrong amplifier with a cabinet that cannot handle
the power you put through it can damage the amplifier, or cabinet or both.
All Tube Product* This applies only to those amplifiers which utilize tubes in power stage of operation. Generally
these are describes as All Tube or All Valve products.
When choosing cabinets to use with all tube amplifiers it is important to remember that you must strictly follow the
load of the amplifier specified by the manufacturer. Failure to do so can and very often will result in the failure of
the power amplifier stage of your product which is something which can be very expensive to repair. As a general
rule most bass products have fixed impedances to plug into. Make sure you read and understand this before
plugging into a cabinet. If in any doubt contact the manufacturer before you turn your amplifier on.
