WARNING:
NEVER CONNECT THE
OUTPUT 8–16
Ω
JACK
OF THE 15WATT
HOWITZER TO THE INPUT OF ANOTHER AMPLIFIER, AN EFFECTS PEDAL, MIXER,
COMPUTER, COMPUTER INTERFACE OR OTHER SIMILAR DEVICE.
We recommend using a
speaker cable
between the 15Watt Howitzer OUTPUT
and speaker cabinet as you would with any power amplifier, though you can use
an instrument cable if necessary. The impedance of the speaker cabinet must be
rated between 8
Ω
and 16
Ω
(
Ω
= ohms). 8
Ω
is the ideal load for the Howitzer.
Additionally, the speaker cabinet must have a power rating equal to or greater
than the Howitzer’s output power capability. We recommend a speaker cabinet
with at least a 15W rating.
WARNING:
Make sure the 15Watt Howitzer’s output is connected to a speaker
cabinet before applying power.
24
VDC/1.0A POWER Jack –
Connect the output plug from the 15Watt
Howitzer’s supplied power supply to the power jack at the top of the unit. We
highly recommend using the power supply that the Howitzer was supplied with.
The polarity of the power jack is center-positive.

THE 15WATT HOWITZER IS A POWER AMP, NOT AN EFFECTS PEDAL:
Connect the OUTPUT
8–16
Ω
jack of the Howitzer to a speaker cabinet only. DO
NOT CONNECT THE OUTPUT OF THE HOWITZER TO THE INPUT OF ANOTHER
AMPLIFIER, EFFECTS PEDAL, MIXER, COMPUTER, COMPUTER INTERFACE or
similar device.
SPEAKER CABINET:
Only plug the OUTPUT
8–16
Ω
jack of the 15Watt Howitzer
into a speaker cabinet rated for an impedance in the range of 8
Ω
to 16
Ω
(8 to 16
ohms); the speaker cabinet power rating should be 15W or greater.
OUTPUT FIRST THEN POWER:
Connect the output of the 15Watt Howitzer to
a proper speaker cabinet before applying power to the Howitzer. If you connect
the Howitzer to a speaker cabinet while it is powered up, the Howitzer may
automatically mute its output to prevent a short circuit on the output jack. In this
situation, simply remove power from the Howitzer, wait a few seconds and then
re-apply power to the Howitzer, it should then work normally.
