Notes:
1. Input sensitivities refer to 220 watts into 8 ohms at full gain and volume settings,
neutral tone control settings (hf level in center position, intensity in left position), and
1 kHz sine-wave test signal.
2. Output levels refer to 63 mV / 1 kHz at instrument input, unless stated otherwise.
3. Bandwidth of tone controls refers to one half of dB-gain at center frequency. For
example, if center gain is –15 dB, then bandwidth is the frequency band between the
–7.5 dB points.
4. Equivalent input noise voltage obtained by measuring noise voltage at speaker out-
put and dividing by the effective voltage gain of the amplifier. Full gain and volume
settings, neutral tone control settings, input shorted, frequency range 20 Hz – 20 kHz.
5. Compressor threshold refers to 1 dB gain reduction. Threshold tolerance ±3 dB. Ratio
refers to 20 dB gain reduction. Ratio varies with gain reduction due to soft-knee
compression.
Specifications and appearance subject to change without notice.
