Welcome to Peavey bass amplification!

Peavey bass guitar amplifiers are legendary for their state of the art features, class-leading power, superb tone, and unmatched reliability. The Peavey Headliner is a 1000-watt bass amplifier head that puts an incredible range of features at players' fingertips. The amp features a seven-band graphic EQ spaced at optimized frequencies, with each slider providing 15 dB of cut and boost, to provide comprehensive tone shaping at precise frequency bands. Players can use the graphic EQ in conjunction with the low and high shelving-type tone controls, or bypass the graphic EQ entirely. A built-in optical Compressor with level control and bypass allows players to add the right amount of compression to the mix, while the Crunch feature adds a vintage tube effect that distorts only the high frequencies, preserving the all-important fat low end. The amp also features Bright and Contour switches, effects loop, master volume and headphone out. The Compressor and Crunch features are footswitch selectable. The Headliner features a built-in XLR direct interface that players can use to route the signal to the house sound system or recording device, and an active/passive pickup switch that compensates for hot inputs. Peavey's DDT" speaker protection circuitry senses the onset of clipping and responds with slight compression that allows the amp to retain the tone, headroom and dynamics.

Please read this guide carefully to ensure your personal safety as well as the safety of your amplifier.

• 7-band graphic equalizer with push-button bypass
  • Class D Power Section

INPUT

1/4" Instrument Input. WARNING: Never plug the output of a power amplifier into the input jacks. Damage may occur to both units.

ACTIVE/PASSIVE PICKUP SWITCH

This switch is included so you can choose the appropriate setting for your instrument. The gain structure of the amplifier is modified to accommodate both active or passive pickup configurations.

PRE GAIN

This knob controls input level of the instrument.

BRIGHT SWITCH

This button provides a 10 dB boost to frequencies above 1kHz. To activate, press the switch to its "ON" position.

CONTOUR

This button boosts highs and lows while simultaneously cutting mid tones, producing a "scooped" sound.

CRUNCH SWITCH

This button engages a crunch effect, simulating the classic overdriven tube amp sound. When using the crunch feature, turning the tweeter off on your cabinet will result in a more authentic overdriven tone.

LOW

This knob provides a shelving tone control for low frequencies and provides cut/boost of +/-15 dB. The center point is flat. The center frequency is 50 Hz. The -3 dB shelf corner frequency is 100Hz.

EQ BYPASS

This button removes the graphic equalizer from the audio chain. When this switch is in the "Bypass" position, the amp will respond as if the graphic equalizer is set flat.

GRAPHIC EQUALIZER

These sliders provide precise tone control through the constant-Q, seven-band equalizer. Each band may be boosted or cut 15 dB.

HIGH

This knob provides a shelving tone control for high frequencies and cut/boost of +/-15dB . The center point is flat and the frequency is 8 KHz. The -3dB; the shelf corner frequency is 5 KHz.

COMPRESSOR

Rotating this knob clockwise will increase the amount of compression in the signal chain.

12 BYPASS BUTTON This button switches the compressor on and off. 13 VOLUME This knob controls the overall volume of the amplifier. 14 MUTE BUTTON This button disrupts the output signal to the speakers, muting the amp. 15 HEADPHONE OUTPUT 1/4" headphone output for personal monitoring. 16 INDICATOR LED This LED has three basic functions: *Illuminates green when power is on. *Flashes red/green when mute button is engaged *Flashes red when DDT is engaged. 17 POWER SWITCH To apply power to the unit, flip the switch to the "ON" position. The green LED will illuminate, indicating that power is being supplied. Caution: The Power switch in this unit does not break both sides of the primary mains. Hazardous energy can be present inside the chassis even when the Power switch is in the "OFF" position. 18 AC POWER INLET: This is the receptacle for an IEC line cord, which provides AC power to the unit. Connect the line cord to this connector to provide power to the unit. Never break off the ground pin on any equipment. It is provided for your safety. If the outlet used does not have a ground pin, a suitable grounding adapter should be used, and the third wire should be grounded properly. To prevent the risk of shock or fire hazard, always make sure that the amplifier and all associated equipment is properly grounded.

19 EXTERNAL SPEAKER OUTPUT One 2-pin twist-lock powered speaker output, paralleled with 1/4" powered speaker output (20). 20 1/4" EXTERNAL SPEAKER OUTPUT 1/4" powered speaker output, paralleled with 2-pin twist-lock powered output (19). 21 FOOTSWITCH JACK Plug your Headliner footswitch into this 1/4" jack. The footswitch controls the crunch effect and the compressor on/off. NOTE: The crunch and compressor buttons MUST be engaged to operate with the footswitch. The part number for the TNT/Headliner footswitch is 03008010. 22 EFFECTS LOOP The Send Jack provides a preamp output that may be used to drive slave amplifiers and external effects processors. The Return Jack provides a power amp input for the last effect in the chain. NOTE: When using the unit as a slave power amplifier, the Return Jack should be used as the input. 23 DIRECT INTERFACE (DI) This built-in, balanced Direct Interface is used to send a buffered signal to an external mixer. 24 DI PRE/POST SWITCH This button toggles the DI output from pre EQ to post EQ. 25 GROUND LIFT This button is provided to prevent a ground loop that may result in "hum" noise. When depressed (IN position), Ground Lift is engaged.
