to each of the two channels and also the mixing of the
dry/effect signals, i.e. chorus on “normal” and delay on
“overdrive” etc. Another thing to remember is that the DFX
system outputs the signals in stereo which when fed into
the twin power amps and speakers gives a very wonderful

AUX IN

– This socket accepts the stereo output of a

MP3/CD player, or any other auxiliary input device such
as a rhythm drum machine. Please use a standard 3.5mm

HP OUT

– This 3.5mm socket is the output to feed into

headphones  for  silent  practise.  Any  standard  16  ohm
stereo  headphones  can  be  used,  although  as  with  all
things,  the  better  the  headphone  the  better  the  sound.
On  the  AG80DFX  the  headphone  output  is  fed  from
an  intricate  active  speaker  emulating  filter  network  to
produce a more accurate “guitar speaker” sound through
headphones.  This  circuit  is  placed  before  the  power

switching to Mute gives you silent performance.

POWER SWITCH AND INDICATOR

– The power

switch and its associated “ON” indicator controls the
mains electricity supply into your amplifier. It is “best
practise” to turn your amplifier OFF when not using it, if
for no better reason than not using the power and helping
to protect the environment! The markings of “0” and “1”
comply with international standards – 0=off, 1=on.

effects system. Generally it is quite unwise to use “stomp
box” type pedals in an effect loop, they are not designed
for such use, and are best suited to be connected between

Please check the white rating label fitted to the back

of utmost importance to use the correct earthed and rated

small drawer in the receptacle can be withdrawn allowing
access to the mains power Fuse.

A WORD OF ADVICE

about fuses – if a fuse blows it is

usually for a very good reason, it could be anything from a
voltage spike on the mains power, to a serious malfunction
of your amplifier. Fuses are there for your protection –
treat them with respect, and never replace with the wrong
value.
