*We recommend
setting the
CS-80 output
HIGH/L
OW
switch
to
HIGH, and
using the direct
box pad
to
reduce the signal
level. This protects the transformer
from
saturation
and
the
mixer
input from
overdrive.
(It is
possible to set the
HIGH/
LOW
switch
to
LOW,
and
to
switch
OUT
the direct
box
pad.
This
does present
a
much
lower impedance
to
the direct
box
transformer, causing
some
transient distortion.
While
the
resulting
sound
will
be brighter
and
less
accurate, there
is
no
harm
if
you
like
it.)

TRAVEL
CASE
The CS-80
is
built into
a
durable plywood
case, with
a
removable
cover,
which
is
suitable for light
duty
traveling,
such
as in a station
wagon
or van.
For heavy
cartage
(i.e.,
comnnercial trucking
or
air
freight),
we
recomnnend
you
use an additional travel case.
If
you
buy
a
custom
built case,
it
should meet
"ATA-300"
specifications
(ATA^Air
Transport Authority).
The
case
should
be lined with 3-inch thick
foam
on
all
sides;
3/4"
plywood
or
its
equivalent
is
recommended
for
adequate
strength. Consult
the specifications for
inside case dimensions.
