FOREWORD 
 

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Nemesis N8 Bass Guitar 
amplifier. All of us at Eden are totally committed to providing you with the 
very best bass guitar systems in their class. Our goals are to offer you the 
outstanding performance quality of a top-notch, professional bass 
amplification system at a reasonable price point, and to make Nemesis 
amplifiers the most musical and reliable Bass amplifiers available.  
 
This manual will cover domestic and international versions of the N8 
Combo Amplifier. 
 
The N8 delivers 40 watts RMS output @ 8 Ohms, with +3dB of headroom. 
This amplifier also features a passive cooling system. 
 
You have purchased what we feel is one of the finest bass amplifiers 
in its class. The pre-amplifier section features a gentle auto-compression 
circuit to protect the speaker. The cabinet is made of AA void-free plywood 
to withstand years of use. 
 
The Nemesis line of amplifiers is the result of our research and development 
in combining high performance and compact size. Just as a skilled craftsman 
needs good quality tools that won't let him down on the job, so does a good 
musician. We hope you enjoy the tool we’ve created for you. Have fun; play 
low! 
 
Please read this manual in its entirety before operating your new amplifier. 
Failure to do so could result in misuse or damage. We’ve taken the time to 
write it, which was a lot longer than the time it will take for you to read it. 
Help us help you by taking a few moments to learn how to properly use your 
new amp. You’ll be glad you did!
