1. 0 dB Input: ¼-inch input that is intended for bass guitars with standard, passive electronics.
2. –6 dB Input: ¼-inch input that is optimized for bass guitars with active electronics.
3. Gain: Controls the input level to the preamp. Set so Clip indicator light is not lit, otherwise distortion may occur.
4. Volume: Controls the overall volume level of the amplier. Use in conjunction with the Gain control to obtain the
desired level.
5. EQ-63: This active control adjusts the low frequencies to boost or cut by 12 dB centered at approximately 63 Hz.
6. EQ-150: This active control adjusts the low-mid frequencies to boost or cut by 12 dB centered at approximately 150
Hz.
7. EQ-350: This active control adjusts the low-mid frequencies to boost or cut by 12 dB centered at approximately 350
Hz.
8. EQ-800: This active control adjusts the hi-mid frequencies to boost or cut by 12 dB centered at approximately 800 Hz.
9. EQ-2K: This active control adjusts the high frequencies to boost or cut by 12 dB centered at approximately 2 kHz.
10. EQ-5K: This active control adjusts the high frequencies to boost or cut by 12 dB centered at approximately 5 kHz.
11. Aux In: This is a 3-conductor, 1/8-inch, stereo jack that allows playback from a Compact Disc, MP3 player or other
audio device. The overall volume level will be determined by the audio device, so start with lower volume levels and
increase as needed.
12. Headphones: This is a 3-conductor, 1/8-inch input jack intended for headphone use. The amplier’s internal speaker
is disconnected when this jack is used.
13. Power Switch: This dual-function component is both an On/Off power switch and a status indicator light. When
illuminated, it shows that your amplier is ready to be played. To turn amplier on, press switch upward. To turn amp off,
press switch downward.

Speaker Outputs: These are two-conductor, ¼-inch external speaker jacks. These jacks are wired in a parallel
conguration. Use them to connect the amplier head to speaker cabinets with a minimum total impedance of 4 ohms.
(Note: Be sure that the amp is turned off before connecting or disconnecting speaker cabinets.)
Examples:
If you have two 8-ohm speaker cabinets and plug one into each of the amplier’s two speaker jacks, the total load will be
4 ohms. Because this is equal to the minimum-rated load for the amplier (4 ohms), this combination is acceptable.
If you have two 4-ohm speaker cabinets and plug one into each of the amplier’s two speaker jacks, the total load will
be 2 ohms. Because this is below the minimum-rated load of the amplier (4 ohms), this combination must not be
used.
Effects Loop Send: Use this 2-conductor, ¼-inch jack to connect to the input of an external effects processor or
equalizer. This jack can also be used as a Preamp Out.
Effects Loop Return: Use this 2-conductor, ¼-inch jack to connect to the output of an external effects processor or
equalizer. This jack can also be used as a Power Amp In.
Balanced Line Out: This XLR jack is used to connect the amplier to a mixer or other line level amplier. (Note: This
output is post-EQ and post- Effects Loop but is located before the Volume control.)
Direct Out Volume: This control sets the output level for the Balanced Line Out. Set in its lower ranges until necessary
volume has been determined.
Ground Lift: Activating this switch removes the ground connection on the Balanced Line Out jack. If necessary, use this
switch to eliminate hum.

KXB200H/HR Suggested Settings
The following suggested settings will help you dial in a variety of popular tones. Keep in mind, these are starting points to
get you up and running with your KXB amplier. Feel free to experiment to achieve your own signature sounds.
TRADITIONAL/VERSATILE TONE
In this setting, the amplier will deliver a traditional, yet versatile, electric bass sound. Whether you are playing Rock,
Country, Blues or Gospel, this setting will get you close. If you play with a pick and want less treble attack on the notes,
decrease the amount of high frequencies using the 2K and 5K controls. If you need a deeper bottom end, increase the
amount of low frequencies using the 63 control. Adjust the amount of Low and High Midrange to best match the tone of
your bass guitar and how it ts into the overall sound.
FUNKY, SLAPPED TONES
This style of music needs a strong attack with lots of treble. Using less Low-mids will help produce the extra top end
necessary for this type of music. If you use a “slapping” thumb technique, add a bit more low end and extra volume –
or less if you really hit the strings hard.
ALTERNATIVE STYLE
These settings are designed for upper-end punch and edge that will cut through most any sound mix. This tone will
work well with pick or ngers. Make sure your bass guitar’s volume control is turned up all the way. Since you’re adding
volume, be careful with the amount of EQ that you dial in, as it can also add some distortion to the sound.
