IMPORTANT NOTE, please read and heed:

Choose only one of the following speaker and cabinet options:

A) Speaker and cabinet options for the Raider Combo Amp - 1x12" model only:

Connect this output of the

to a signal processor's input/return jack using

the shortest possible shielded cord equipped with 6.3 mm (1/4") plugs. In the signal

path, the

is located post preamp, pre

, and pre power amp

and its two Master control knobs. The

is hardwired into the signal path.

If you wish to bypass a connected effect, you must do this on the outboard device by

switching it off or hitting its bypass button.

Connect this input of the

4 ohms speaker output jacks, internal connected parallel. For diverse cabinet options

!

8 ohms speaker output jacks, internal connected parallel; the internal 8 ohms speaker

(1x12" combo: 1x 8 ohms) is connected to one of this two jacks. For diverse cabinet

options see the last chapter on this page! The impedance of an additional cabinet

should bear 8 ohms (for the Raider 112" Combo amp).

16 ohms speaker output jack; For diverse cabinet options see the last chapter on this

page!

Never operate the power amp without a

sufficient load, otherwise you may damage or destroy it! Always check the connected

cabinets' impedance to confirm it matches the amp's output impedance! For example,

if you are connecting a cabinet to one of the two 8-ohms output, make sure the

speaker system is indeed rated for 8 ohms. You'll find the various speaker and cabinet

options listed in the section below. I cannot stress enough the importance of proper

impedance matching when connecting one or more cabinets to your amp. Impedance

mismatching can damage the power amp!

1. Internal speaker (1x12", 8 ohms) only,  connected to an 8-ohm jack

(without an external speaker cabinet!);

Summary: No external cab; internal 8 Z -> internal to 8-ohm output.
