chorus, delay and reverb processors) require that the signal flow out of the send jack on the amplifier, through
the unit where it is split into a dry (unaltered) signal and a wet (processed) signal. On the processing unit, you
will use the mixed signal output to return the signals (both wet and dry) to the return jack on the amplifier. The
ratio between the wet signal and the dry signal is heard as the amount of effects added back to the original
signal, which is controlled by the mix knob (also called “balance”) on the effects processor. Set the input
sensitivity on the effects processor according to the processor manufacturer’s instructions. The “
effects send
jack
may also be used as an auxiliary output to drive a direct box, tape deck etc. This output is
preequalization, and pre master volume. The “
mute switch
will shut this output down when engaged.
Foot Switches —
The NEOX400-210T is fitted with jacks for two different types of footswitch. The 2-button
footswitch (included) controls
channel switch
and
channel mix
functions. Any standard latching 2-button
footswitch with TIP-RING-SLEEVE connector will work, provided there are no LEDs in the switching path. The
4-button footswitch uses a 5 pin “DIN” connector and controls the
mute
and
shape filters
. This footswitch is
unique to Genz Benz due to the complex nature of the functions and must be factory supplied.
Speaker Output Jacks —
The NEOX400-210T features two standard 1/4” speaker jacks plus one Neutrik™“
Speakon NL-4 connector. Minimum recommended total load impedance is 4 ohms. The total impedance of
the combo speaker configuration is 4 ohms. It is not recommended that an external speaker cabinet be used
with this combo. A Phastic plug has been inserted at the factory to prevent the use of this jack.
CABINET FEATURES
Construction —
Built from domestic and Baltic Birch plywood, the NEOX400 is sold yet lightweight. The
porting system also strengthens the side panels. Our unique edge-lift handles offer easy transport.
Speaker Configuration —
The NEOX400 combo is loaded with two of our GNX10250, 8 ohm loudspeakers
and GBE 4941 compression bullet tweeter. This combination is ideal for producing the clarity and versatility of
the NEOX400 amplifier. Total cabinet impedance is 4 ohms. Use of an additional speaker cabinet is not
recommended.
Internal Crossover
— The NEOX400-210T uses a 12 db / octave crossover network which includes our LTP
tweeter protection and a 100 watt tweeter level control.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Power
is supplied to the amplifier through an IEC type detachable cord set with a mains connector, fuse
holder and internationally rated 115/230 Volts - 50/60 Hz toroidal power transformer. For our international
touring players, an external mains line voltage switch is provided, with a fuse size chart printed on the rear of
the unit denoting the power supply configuration and fuse size that the unit has been rated for. International
IEC type cord-sets are available for a variety of international power supply sockets. The main’s fuse (and a
spare) is located in a slid-out drawer in the bottom half of the IEC connector.
Common sense
(as well as the law) dictates that you do not operate the unit where it will be exposed to
moisture or rain, excessive ambient heat (over 115 degrees F / 40 degrees C) or without a properly grounded
A.C. power source. Never remove the ground pin from the A.C. power connector.
Ventilation
is required to keep this amplifier from overheating. Do not block air flow over heat-sinks at the
rear of the unit.
