LOW, HIGH
Active shelving EQ controls. Low and High cut or boost ±12dB from unity gain (12
o’clock), with pivot point at 1kHz.
MID
Active EQ, cut or boost ±12dB from unity gain (12 o’clock), centered at 1kHz.
HPF
High Pass Filter. Filters out rumble and low frequency artifacts of certain instruments
or vocal mics that emit unintelligible rumble. Engaged (in position), frequencies below
100 Hz are attenuated at 12dB per octave. Refer to Noteworthy Notes for tips.
LPF
Low Pass Filter. Engaged (in position), frequencies above 3 kHz are attenuated at
12dB per octave. Refer to Noteworthy Notes for tips.
LEVEL
Adjusts the volume level of the Power Engine Deuce Deluxe.
REAR PANEL
XLR IN
Balanced XLR input accepts XLR output of your pre-
amp/processor or amplifier.
NOTE: This input is not intended to be used with a
mic, as it will not provide sufficient level.
REMINDER: The pad switch on the front panel
affects both the 1/4” input as well as the XLR input.
XLR OUT
Balanced low impedance XLR parallel output is connected directly to the input, so
that the signal bypasses the tone controls. For live gigs, you can use this output
directly into the P.A. system so you won’t need to mic the Power Engine.
XLR LEVEL SWITCH
Allows you to connect the Power Engine via the XLR Output to other equipment with
different input level requirements:
0dB
(out position): Line-level output.
-20dB
(in position): Pads down the line-level signal by 20dB.

GROUND LIFT
Connects or disconnects the ground circuits between the XLR Output of the Power
Engine and the mixer. We recommend starting with the ground lifted. If necessary,
connect the ground by pushing the button in.
EXTENSION SPEAKER OUTPUT
1/4” connector for an external speaker cabinet, 8-Ohm mini-
mum, 100 Watts. It is wired in parallel and therefore will not
defeat the internal speaker.
TWEETER ON/OFF SWITCH
The tweeter extends the high frequency capability of the Power
Engine Deuce Deluxe. Simply turn on and off as desired.
FUSE
Replace with similar type and same value:
100V - 240V units use F 3.15A L
IMPORTANT REMINDER:
Fuse holder located inside A/C cord receptacle.
You must
disconnect and remove power cord to change fuse.
WORLDWIDE POWER
The Power Engine automatically detects the electrical source and can be
operated on voltages ranging from 100-240V AC, 50/60 Hz.
OVERHEATING
In the event of overheating, there is a heat protection circuit which will
automatically shut down the unit. Normal operation will resume when the
heat dissipates.
NOTE:
Direct sunlight may contribute to overheating.
NOTE: Be sure there is ventilation on all sides and the vent openings on
the back are not obstructed to restrict the flow of air to the heatsinks.
