1. Introduction
With the BX1800 you have acquired a state-of-the-art Bass Workstation that sets
new standards in bass amp engineering. Right from the start, our goal has been
to design a revolutionary amp that stands out from the herd of “ordinary” bass
ampliers. And indeed, the BX1800 gives you plenty of functionality and a broad
range of connection and expansion options. In short: you’ll be fascinated to nd
that the BX1800 is a Workstation with a character.
VTC Virtual Tube Circuitry
The VTC Virtual Tube Circuitry was specially developed to lend the bass sound the
unique character of classic tube amps.
Jam it up!
With its CD player input, your BX1800 is the ultimate practice amp,
becauseitcouldn’t be easier to play along to your favorite music. If you don’t
want anybody listening to what you’re playing, or simply wish to avoid disturbing
the neighbors, just use your headphones. The BEHRINGER HPS3000 is ideal just
forthat.
Please read the manual carefully and keep it around for
future reference.
Attention!
High volume levels can damage your hearing or your headphones.
Please turn down the VOLUME control to zero (all the way to the left)
before you power up the amp. Always make sure you use appropriate
volume levels.
