Operating the Red Box with tube amps,
solid state amps & preamps:
The power amp stage in an all-tube amp is instru-
mental in shaping your guitar amp‘s tone, which
is why we recommend you tap the power amp
speaker signal (Speaker) when utilizing a tube
amp. The preamp signal (Line Out) is preferable
for solid state amps due to lower noise levels and
superior dynamic response. Always employ the
Line Out signal whenever using a preamp.
Caution!
Never operate an amp featuring a tube power
stage without a connected speaker or a po-
wer-soak resistor with a sufficient load! Hughes
& Kettner is not liable for equipment damage
caused by erroneous handling of the Red Box.
When in doubt consult a qualified technician,
especially when dealing with load resistors.
Make a habit of connecting the Speaker Thru jack
to your speaker/speaker cabinet immediately af-
ter connecting the amp‘s Speaker Out to the Red
Box‘s Speaker In! Ensure the amp is switched off
before you begin connecting cables; otherwise
the Red Box may be damaged. Ensure all plugs
are inserted properly!
