Preparing to Operate your British Dream MKII™
Make certain that all connections are made prior to operating your British Dream MKII Amplifier in-
cluding power cable, speaker connection, instrument cable and instrument connection. Make certain
that all tubes are installed.
Power Switch (1)
The POWER switch, when placed in the UP position, provides AC wall power to the amplifier.

Standby Switch (2)

The STANDBY switch, when placed in the CENTER position, puts the amplifier in 'standby mode' al-
lowing the tubes to warm up. When this switch is place in the UP position, the tube circuitry is fully
functional and operating in 50W (diode rectified) mode. In the DOWN position, the amplifier is oper-
ating in 40W (tube rectified) mode.
HybridMASTER™ (3)
The HYBRID MASTER control allows you to set the overall volume level of the amplifier independ-
ent of the volume and tone settings established on the front panel. Think of this as a "micro" volume
adjustment. When turned all the way up (full clock-wise rotation), HybridMASTER is completely re-
moved from the circuit. HybridMASTER is patent-pending.
Stage/Studio Switch (4)
The STAGE/STUDIO MODE switch allows you to operate the amp at full volume (Stage mode) or at
an 80% reduction in volume (Studio mode). Think of this as a "macro" volume adjustment.

Presence Control (5)

The global PRESENCE control affects both channels and allows you to adjust the character or 'for-
wardness' of your sound. Low settings create 'darker' tones, whereas higher settings create a 'bril-
liant' or crisp sound.
