KXB100 Keyboard Amplifier

Congratulations!

You are now the proud owner of the Crate KXB100 keyboard amplifier. This ver­satile and great sounding amp features a 15” Crate Custom woofer and two LeSon
dome tweeters housed in a ported tuned enclosure. Each of the four discreet chan­nels has its own level and reverb/effect control. Channel 1 also has separate low and
high rotary EQ controls, switchable phantom power, and a balanced low impedance
mic in jack. The master section features a 5-band graphic equalizer, a balanced line
out jack with level control, and CD input jacks which allow you to play along with your
favorite music. External effects may be patched into the amplifier by means of the
Send and Return jacks, and headphones may be connected for personal monitoring
as well as private practice sessions.

The KXB100’s angled cabinet allows you to use it as an upward projecting floor
monitor or stand it upright like a conventional amplifier.

Like all Crate products, your KXB100 is designed by musicians, and built using
only the best components. Extensive testing at the hands (and ears) of skilled tech­nicians and musicians insures you that this amplifier is the absolute best it can be.

In order to get the most out of your new amplifier, we strongly urge you to go over
the information contained in this manual before you begin playing.

And thank you for choosing
