aguilar Tone Hammer 500-Watt Solid-State Bass Amplifier - Manual (Page 5)

Page 5
D.I. Section:
D.I. Nominal Output Level: -20 dBu
D.I. Pre/Post Button:
Pre - Your signal goes to the D.I. XLR output jack before your Gain and
EQ settings, but after the –10 dB input pad.
Post – Gain, Drive , EQ and effects will be sent to the D.I. XLR output jack.
In this setting, adjustments to the Master control will only affect the output
to your speaker cabinets, not the signal going to the D.I.
Lift/Ground : If there is a hum when using the D.I. there may be a
ground loop. In many cases pushing in the Lift/Ground button can fix
this problem.
The Tone Hammer® 500 can be run safely without a speaker load
attached to the amplifier for recording through the XLR output. Simply
remove the speaker cables from the rear panel speakon jacks and then
run a cable from the XLR output to your recording device/interface.
* Note: The Tone Hammer® 500 will not be harmed by phantom power
through the DI. D.I. Phantom power is a power supply that can be
switched on at the channel input of some mixing consoles and is used
to power some types of microphones. Use of phantom power (usually
labeled as 48V) will have no effect on the D.I. or the amplifier in
general.
B. Rear Panel Features
Speaker Outputs:
Two speakon outputs are provided. Any combination may be used as
long as the load does not go below 4 ohms. The speakon jacks are wired
+1, -1.

signal will still reach the tuner.
Input Voltage Selector:
The Input Voltage switch allows you to change the operating voltage if
you travel with your Tone Hammer 500. You can select between 115V
for 100-120V and 230V for 220, 230 or 240V.
