- Page 1 Jazz Suprema OWNERS MANUAL 1x10, 1x12, 1x15 Version 1.0 January, 2014...
- Page 2 It's as simple as that. And it's exactly why you bought your RIVERA amp. For that, we thank you, and we're confident that you'll enjoy your amp for years to come.
- Page 3 1. The tubes are securely seated in their sockets. 2. Jazz Suprema amp: A speaker cord is plugged into the Speaker 1 output (this jack must always be used first) from the internal speaker, or to a input jack on a speaker cabinet with a minimum impedance of 4 ohms.
- Page 4 After you've played with your Jazz Suprema for a while, check out the rest of the manual for some good tips on getting the most out of your amp. Quick Start Settings If you're looking for a good starting point, try these settings. Remember that every guitar and speaker cabinet adjust the Focus and Presence to suit your taste.
- Page 5 Front Panel details. High Gain input This is a high-sensitivity input. If your guitar has hot pickups, then plugging into it makes it easy to overdrive the preamp section, creating harmonic distortion. Guitars equipped with low-output pickups seem hotter than usual when plugged into this input.
- Page 6 These outlets have a grounding pin in addition to the normal line and neutral pin. The power cord supplied with your RIVERA amp has a 3-pin plug. Do not cut off or damage the ground pin. If the available electrical outlet is of the older 2-pin type, use a suitable ground-lift adapter.
- Page 7 Repeated blowing of this fuse is a clear indicator of a defective output tube. Always use the correct fuse value when replacing the HT Fuse. If the Mains Fuse or the HT Fuse repeatedly blows, refer your amp to your local RIVERA dealer or contact us at (818) 833-7066 for further service assistance.
- Page 8 Line Output Your RIVERA Jazz Suprema can drive another RIVERA amp, power amp, or other guitar amplifier. The Line Out is post-power amp, so every bit of tone from your Preamp, effects (if used), and power-amp circuitry is sent from this jack.
- Page 9 signal processor with excellent results. It's also fully buffered, meaning that it can drive long cords and line-level gear and mixing consoles. (Because the signal is electrically unbalanced, you can use an unbalanced-to-balanced output transformer to connect to equipment requiring a balanced input.) You can also use the Effects Loop as a sort of power attenuator by turning it on and lowering the send and return level controls.
- Page 10 60 watts. A single 8 extension cabinet can be used, too. For the best tone and maximum output, we recommend using any of the RIVERA speaker cabinets loaded with either Celestions, or our special 10" driver.
- Page 11 Using a shielded cord, connect the first RIVERA's Line Out to the Effects Loop Return jack on a second RIVERA. Adjusting the Return Level of the second amp sets the relative volume of the second amp. All tone and distortion adjustments are made by the first amp.
- Page 12 Connect a shielded cord from your Jazz Suprema's Line Out to the Power Amp In or Effects Loop Return of a second amp. All volume and tone changes made on the Venus 6 will affect what comes out of the second amp. Caution: Never use the speaker outputs as line outputs.
- Page 13 If you don't have a flight case for travel, use the box it came in, or wrap it in something thick, soft, and protective. RIVERA amps are built to take a lot, but why push it? If you treat your amp well, it will treat you (and your guitar's tone) well.
- Page 14 Let it idle before you play. If you have a few minutes to spare before you play, turn the amp on and set it to standby so that all the parts can get warmed up and stable. Once the amp's nice and warm (5 or 10 minutes), flip the Standby switch and get busy on your guitar.
- Page 15 2. Turn off the amp and wait 25 minutes before turning it on again. An internal thermal protection circuit can shut the amp down if it becomes overheated. 3. After 25 minutes, turn it on, and if it shuts down again, refer the amp to qualified service personnel.
