Valve King™ Series 100/112/212 All Tube Amplifiers Congratulations on the purchase of your new Valve King™ tube amplifier from Peavey. The Valve King™ series offers more all-tube “Bang For Your Buck” than any other amp on the market. Two channels offer optimum flexibility in a small package. The Clean channel includes a Bright switch and separate three-band passive EQ, allowing the Lead tone to be even more fine-tuned.
Front Panel HIGH GAIN INPUT Used for most electric guitars. It is 10 dB louder than Low Gain input. LOW GAIN INPUT Provided for instruments that have extremely high outputs, which can result in overdriving (distorting) the High Gain input. If both inputs are used simultaneously, the levels are the same (both are Low Gain). VOLUME Controls the volume level of the Clean channel.

RESONANCE (Valve King™ 212 and 100 Head only) This patented feature, available only from Peavey, is used to fine-tune the low-frequency response and damping factor of the power amp section. At higher settings, the speakers are allowed to move more freely at low frequencies, resulting in more apparent low end, with slightly less signal clarity at maxi- mum settings.

TEXTURE This a new patent pending feature available only from Peavey, used to fine-tune the power sensitivity, response, and “break-up” of the power amp section of your Valve King™ amplifier. Normal, full-power, Class A/B operation results when the TEXTURE (#21) control is set at its full clockwise (wide open) posi- tion and should be used as a starting point when setting this control.

Rear Panel FUSE FUSE FUSE FUSE RESONANCE SWITCH (Valve King™ 112 only) Used to fine-tune the low frequency range of the speaker enclosure by varying the damping factor of the amplifier between two presets. In the “Loose” position, the speaker will produce the most lows with a slight sacrifice of signal clarity.
