P . POWER INPUT—Connect the included power cord in
accordance with the voltage and frequency ratings listed
on the rear panel of the amplifier.
Q . FUSE—Replace with same rating only.
R . POWER—Turns amp ON
S . STANDBY—Puts amp in STANDBY mode to keep tubes
warm during breaks. Switch OFF when turning amp ON;
wait seconds, then turn switch ON. This prolongs tube
life.
T . EFFECTS LOOP—Useful for obtaining maximum per-
formance from rack-mount or pedal effects like Reverb,
Delay, Chorus, etc. Connect SEND to the input of your
effects unit and RETURN to the output.
U . PREAMP OUT—Connect to another amp’s EFFECTS
RETURN or POWER AMP IN for simultaneous multiple
amp use. This output may also be used to send the
preamp’s signal direct to a mixer.
V . FOOTSWITCH—Connect the cable of the supplied
footswitch here (See EVH FOOTSWITCH {Y} next page).
W . LOAD IMPEDANCE—Selects the output impedance of
the amp (, or Ohms) to match the speaker load.
NOTE: The 5150-III 412 speaker enclosure (recommended)
has an impedance of 16 Ohms. When using one 5150-III 412
speaker enclosure, set the LOAD IMPEDANCE switch to “16Ω.”
When using two 5150-III 412 speaker enclosures, set the LOAD
IMPEDANCE switch to “8Ω.”
X . SPEAKER OUTPUTS—For connection to speaker
cabinet(s). When using one speaker cabinet, either jack
can be used. Use only a high-quality unshielded speaker
cable.
NOTE: A speaker must always be plugged into one of the
speaker jacks when the EVH amplifier is "ON" or damage
may occur. Switch the amplifier "OFF" or to "STANDBY" while
changing speaker connections or impedance settings.
