POWER REQUIREMENTS

This unit requires connection to a 120 volt AC outlet. Do not cut or disconnect the

ground pin on the power cord. Do not attempt to connect this unit to any power

source other than the specified 120VAC. The VECTOR 210 will typically draw

approximately 4 amps of current when driven hard.

CAUTION

Most tube amplifiers require a load on the output to avoid damage to the

amplifiers output transformer. Make sure you connect an external speaker

cabinet load before applying power to any tube amplifier to avoid potential

damage to the tube amplifier. This will ensure a proper load is applied to

the output of the tube amplifier. ISP will not assume responsibility for

damage to any tube amplifier.

VECTOR 210 CONCEPT

The VECTOR 210 was designed for ease of use. There are two possible ways to

connect and use the VECTOR 210 Powered Subwoofer. You can use the VECTOR

210 at either line level or connected directly to the speaker output of any guitar

amplifier. Make sure to select the correct input attenuator switch setting based on

line level use or speaker level use. In speaker level, connect the speaker output of

the guitar amplifier to the input of the VECTOR 210 like you would any other

speaker cabinet and confirm the correct setting of the input attenuator switch on

the back panel is set for Speaker level. NOTE: As stated above, the VECTOR

210 does not provide any load on the output of the amplifier. It is a very

high impedance load greater than 150,000 ohms. Most Tube amplifiers

require a proper load on the output to avoid damage to the output

transformer. Make sure to connect an appropriate speaker load when

using the VECTOR 210 connected at speaker level output to a Tube

amplifier. The VECTOR 210 can also be used in line level by feeding a line level

input signal to the input of the VECTOR 210 and selecting the line level setting of

the input attenuator switch. This allows the VECTOR 210 to work directly with any
