Hi All

One question sIII

I will only use the 8/16 ohm outputs. I am either going to run 4x12 16 ohm cab or 8 ohm 2 x 12 16 ohm greenbacks.

There is 2 supplied switch craft jacks with the kit. The orange wire is the 16 ohm output and the green is the 8 ohm hot output.

This being said, can I run the black (off the OT) to the negatives on the switch crafts' and run one green to one jack and a orange to the other and denote on the chasis which is 8 and 16?

If this is the case, do I cut, heat shrink the 4 ohm output?

Thanks in Advance

Dan

Yes you can. In that case I wouldn't cut the 4 ohm wire too short. You might want to use it in the future. Just heat shrink the end and wrap it up. Of course you couldn't use both jacks at the same time.

I would wire both jacks to the impedance selector switch as shown in the layout, though. You might want to try the amp with a 4 ohm cabinet later on.

I went 8/16 ohm hardwired, I doubt i'll ever use 4 ohms ever.

Was a easy job. Boy it's nice building your own amp, with the excellent TRINITY documentation and a good meter and basic knowledge of electricity and
amplifier repair, this will be an awesome machine for years to come!!!!

THANKS

DAN
