You must be happy – you are currently reading the
owner’s manual of your new TECAMP PLEASURE PUMP
500 amp. The PLEASURE PUMP 500 is a sophisticated
bass amplifier of highest quality. You can only take full
advantage of its power and broad range of sound options
when you know how to use it properly. There are loads
of protections built into the amp for an exceptionally re-
liable operation.
PLEASURE PUMP stands out due to its extraordinary
sound qualities. Useful features such as separate and
individually controllable inputs for instrument and line
sources, the “CUT” control, a phones amp and an ad-
ditional line output offer a vast array of applications.
The power of the Pleasure Pump 500 is ideally suited
to drive our PLEASURE BOARD or any other cabinet with
raw power.
There are countless ways to connect to PLEASURE PUMP
500 for loads of different applications. When you use the
PLEASURE PUMP together with the PLEASURE BOARD
or any other conventional speaker cabinet, the instru-
ment signal can be routed to the sound reinforcement
system via the “LINE OUT”. You can very well use the
PLEASURE PUMP between your instrument and your
regular bass amp, or, the other way round, plug your in-
strument into your standard bass amp and connect its
line output to the LINE INPUT of the PLEASURE PUMP.
Since PLEASURE PUMP 500 sports two separate inputs
you can mix other signal sources such as a CD or MP3
player as well as a monitor mix in an In-ear situation, or
plug in two bass guitars.
