c) You must use a speaker cable to connect an
external speaker. Don’t use a shielded cable like the
one you use to connect a guitar to an amp.
d) You must turn off the power before connecting
the cable. Connecting the cable while the power is
turned on may damage your amp.
We think you will be very pleasantly surprised at
how good this amplifier will perform when con-
nected to a 4x12" speaker cabinet!
19 – MAINS POWER CONNECTOR/FUSE
The mains power required by your amplifier is connected
using this device.
WARNING! Use only the power cord supplied with
your amplifier, or a replacement of the exact same
specification.
WARNING! Only connect this amplifier to a suitable
mains power supply that matches the rating
indicated on the back panel of your VR30 amplifier.
IF IN ANY DOUBT CONTACT YOUR DEALER!
20 – AIR VENTS
In no circumstances must these air vents be covered in
any way that prevents cooling air to circulate.
16 – FOOTSWITCH JACK
Connect the optional VF-002 Footswitch to this jack.
17 – HEADPHONE JACK
A pair of stereo headphones, of between 8 & 600 ohms im-
pedance, can be connected to your VR30 for “silent” practise.
Inserting the headphone plug into this socket automatically
disconnects the power amplifier from both the internal loud-
speaker, and the external loudspeaker jack.
Although great care has been taken in designing your VR30
to sound as good as it can into headphones, it must be
remembered that headphones are not guitar loudspeakers
(they have a very special frequency response), and with
the many different brands of headphones on the market,
the sound quality of the VR30 into headphones may not be
as good as it is into its own speaker system.
18 – EXTERNAL LOUDSPEAKER JACK
An external loudspeaker system can be connected to your
amplifier by using this socket. This socket disconnects the
amplifier from the internal loudspeaker. Any guitar loud-
speaker cabinet can be used provided that the system im-
pedance is between 8 and 16 ohms.
WARNING! To ensure that your system works
correctly, you must observe the following points.
a) Don’t use an external speaker whose impedance
is other than 8 ohms.
b) Don’t connect a speaker whose rated input
capacity is less than 30 watts. The speaker may be
