You can power the preamp three ways:
1. Nine-Volt Battery
Squeeze the two tabs on the top of the preamp together and the battery drawer
will pop out. Pull out the Battery clip and snap in a fresh 9-Volt alkaline battery.
You can expect 120 hours of continuous use. To conserve the battery, unplug
the input of the Pro EQ Platinum when you are not using the preamp.
2. 48-Volt Phantom Power Option
Many microphone mixers can phantom power the Pro EQ Platinum through a
standard XLR cable. Turn on phantom power at your mixer and connect an
XLR-style microphone cable between the Pro EQ Platinum's XLR out and the
mixer's input. The green "phantom" LED lights up when phantom power is sup-
plied to the preamp. Note that the ground lift for the Platinum works even with
phantom power applied to the XLR out.
No battery drain will occur when you use phantom power.
3. Nine-Volt AC Adapter Input
Use only a Fishman 910-R or Boss PSA series regulated AC adapter. If a 9-
Volt battery is in the preamp, no battery drain will occur when you use an AC
adapter.

This is for all piezo and magnetic pickups (passive or active). When you plug
in here, the 9-Volt battery switches on. Remember to unplug the Input Jack
when you are not using the preamp, to conserve the battery's life. It is a good
idea to turn down your amp or mixer's input before you plug into this input.
Doing so will protect your speakers (and your ears) from loud pops.
