Ground Lift Switch

– This switch lifts the ground within the balanced

output system to allow you to eliminate excessive noise/ground loops when

connected to external systems.


D.I. Level

– Controls the level being sent from the XLR balanced output

jack. Set the control at approximately 10 to 11 o’clock initially and adjust

from there. For the best tone, we suggest you send a relatively hot signal to

the board, even if this necessitates engaging the board’s Input Pad. Even so,

make sure your soundperson or recording engineer knows you can vary the

signal level if necessary.


Headphone Jack

– Accepts a standard ¼ inch stereo or mono headphone

plug.

Amp Outs

– These consist of two ¼ inch jacks and an NL-4 connector

(sometimes called a Speakon). The jacks are wired in parallel. The total

speaker load impedance should not exceed 4 ohms. On NL-4 connectors, we

use +1, -1 connections.


Amplifier Power Rating:

180Watts RMS @ 8Ω, 260Watts RMS @ 4Ω.

All ratings are with +3dB of headroom. This means that the maximum

output is twice the RMS rating.


Interesting note: In some parts of Europe and elsewhere that uses 220/240v
@ 50Hz, the WTX will produce as much as 290W RMS. We’re just sayin’.


Cooling System

– Your amplifier features a passive, high-temperature

thermal safety system which will activate an AGC (Automatic Gain Control)

circuit if the operating temperature goes above 190 degrees F. This circuit

will automatically turn down the output of the system in the event of

overheating. It will automatically reset itself to full power as soon as the unit

cools down to a safe operating temperature.


NOTE

: the D.I. will continue to operate normally even when the amplifier is

in thermal safety mode. Only the stage sound will be lost.
