BACK PANEL (continued)
Speaker Jack
On a combo amp, this jack is for adding an extension speaker cabinet to be used with the internal
speaker of the amp. The internal speaker runs at 8 ohms for a single 12 or 4 ohms for 2x12 and is
parallel with the extension speaker jack.
On a head, this jack is for connection to your speaker cabinet. Please be sure to select the proper
ohms to match your cab.
Speaker Phase Switch
This switch changes the phase of your ampÕs speakers. When the amp is played by itself, either
position will sound good, but slightly different. Here is another case where a little
experimentation is worthwhile to find what is right for you. This switch becomes very important,
though, when the amp is used in conjunction with another amp in a dual amp setup. If the
speaker in the two amps are set Òout of phaseÓ with each other your tone could be weakened
considerably. So when youÕre running the amp simultaneously with another amp, be sure to
check this switch to see if one position or the other is giving you a better result.
Speaker Impedance
On a combo this rotary selector knob comes set at 8 ohms for a single 12 or 4 ohms for a 2x12.
The selector knob can select between 4, 8 and 16 ohms. Check OhmÕs Law if using an additional
extension cabinet to select the right ohm setting. Example: 8 ohms + 8 ohms = 4 ohm setting.
On a head, please be sure to select the proper ohms to match your cabinet.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Your new Bad Cat amplifier designed for many years of professional trouble free operation.
Common sense will tell you that if you notice any sever abnormalities in operation like burning
smell, smoke, etc.; you need to shut down the amp immediately. Always consult your Bad Cat
dealer if you are unsure of the problems that you are dealing with; i.e., take your amp to where
you purchased it.
No Power
Check the power source from the wall first. Make sure the power cord is properly seated at both
ends. If there is still no power, check the fuse and replace if necessary with the correct rating
only.
