Amp & Speaker Connection Notes
Caution: To avoid equipment and/or hearing damage, be careful to connect
and power the amp and OX in the proper sequence. See the
Steps for specific instructions.
• Use only high-quality 12 to 16 gauge unshielded ¼" mono TS (tip-sleeve) speaker
cables for OX's high-power FROM AMPLIFIER and TO SPEAKER connections.
"Speaker" is usually printed on these cables.
Tip: As a general guideline, the longer a speaker cable is, the smaller its cable
gauge needs to be (smaller gauge = bigger wires).
• If connecting a tube combo amp (speaker and amp in the same cabinet), you
might need a male-to-female speaker extension cable with (not included) to reach
between OX's TO SPEAKER output jack and the guitar speaker.
