    Thank you for purchasing the D-400 bass amp. A great deal of dedication and passion went into designing and building this no-compromise, high performance compact amplifier. It was conceived to be a dedicated amplifier for the “connoisseur” bassist. Reading and following this manual will enable you to get the best performance from the amp and ensure its longevity.

  • Page 3: Front And Back Panel Description

    FRONT PANEL AND BACK PANEL OVERVIEW FRONT BACK FRONT AND BACK PANEL DESCRIPTION 1. PASSIVE BASS INSTRUMENT INPUT JACK This is a standard 1/4 inch mono jack socket. For the best possible sound we recommend you use the PJB BI-12 instrument cable as it has very low self-capacitance and absolute shielding resulting in greater transparency of sound and less noise.
  • Page 4 4. Input Level Adjustment This is a fine-tuning adjustment (+/-10dB) to get the precise match between your instrument and the D-400.

  • Page 6: Loudspeaker Output

    22. LOUDSPEAKER OUTPUT The D-400 amplifier will work on any load from 16Ω down to 4Ω, which is the safe maximum load for this amplifier. We recommend that you use the PJB SS-4 high- current, low-resistance cables. Using inferior, higher resistance cables will greatly impair the performance of your system.
  • Page 7 Power increases as more load is added on the amplifier. In other words, the current will double if 2 x 8 ohm speakers are connected instead of one. The D-400 works from any high impedance down to 4 ohms. The total speaker impedance can be 16, 12, 8, 6 or 4 ohms or between these.
  • Page 8 Speaker Selection D-400 can work with speaker load of 4 to 16 Ohms. A 4 ohm cabinet will make full use of the amplifier's power. PJB makes a few models of bass cabinets that will match the D-400. Please refer to their specs to choose one that suits you.
