FRONT PANEL FEATURES
Input Jack � Designed to accept a
standard ¼ inch mono phone plug. For best results, use a high-quality, shielded cable to connect your instrument to the amplifier.
Frequency control � Provided for low,
mid, and high frequency ranges, these controls select the frequencies you wish to boost or cut.
Boost/Cut Controls� Located beneath
each frequency selection control, these controls will boost or cut the selected frequency by 15 db. They are flat at their 12: 00 setting.
Input Pad � By pushing the Pad switch in,
you engage a �12db pad, which will prevent the system from being overdriven by highoutput instruments.
Treble � This is a traditional shelving-type Pad Indicator � Lights to indicate that the
pad is engaged. tone control. It provides 15 db of boost or cut. The knee of the filter is at approximately, 2KHz. The control is flat at the 12:00 position.
Gain Control � Regulates the first gain
stage of the preamplifier and controls the amount of signal available to the system.
EQ Clip Indicator � Flashes to indicate
clipping within the tone control circuit of the preamplifier. This should never be lit up.
Set Level Indicator � Lights to indicate
that the preamp is sitting right on the sweet spot of the gain balance and is at optimum signal to noise as well as best overall head room.
Master Level Control � Adjusts overall
system output.
Compressor Indicator � Lights to
indicate that the signal has crossed the threshold of the compression circuit and that compression is taking place.
Compressor Bypass � Pushing the
switch in will disengage the compressor. It will also turn on the set level light and turn off the compressor active light.
Balance Control- This control adjusts the balance between the left and right channels of the amplifier. When the Amplifier is in the Bi-Amp mode the Balance control also adjusts the Hi and Low balance. Cross Over Control -This knob controls the center frequency that the crossover works at. This is a 12 dB per octave crossover. Note. (This feature is not available on the WT -500) Stereo / Bi-Amp Mode switch - This switch sits just behind the panel in the stereo mode it moves forward when switched to the Bi-Amp mode. You will need to use a pen tip to engage the switch. Bridge Mono Switch � This switch turns
the amplifier from stereo to bridged Mono. This switch is recessed to prevent it being turned on or off by accident. In mono bridge this amplifier produces an 800 Watts RMS output @ 8 Ohms. Please be very careful when using the bridge mode you can severely damage loudspeakers that are not rated for this amount of power.
Enhance Control � Called the �Magic
Knob� by some, this complex control simultaneously boosts the very low-bass, upper middle, and high frequencies while putting a dip in the lower middle frequencies. It is flat when set to its minimum level.
Tone Control Section Bass � This traditional shelving tone control
provides 15 dB of boost or cut at 30 Hz.
Quasi-Parametric Tone Control �
These three pairs of controls, with overlapping frequencies, allow you to boost or cut the tone at the desired frequency center. The one octave fixed bandwidth (Q=1) allows the controls to interact smoothly and musically.
