8) AC POWER SOCKET Make sure the unit is grounded; all three terminals of the AC power plug must be connected to avoid any injury to the user or
damage to the unit.
9) ON/OFF SWITCH This switch delivers AC power to the amp.
10) VOLTAGE SELECTOR The Acoustic 801P combo features a 120V/240V Voltage
Selector to use the amp in countries with different voltages, so make sure the switch
on the rear panel is on the correct voltage before connecting it to the AC power, and
the fuse is the right value for that voltage. Please change the voltage/fuse values label
located near the voltage selector matching the voltage/fuse values when you need to
change the voltage of the apparatus.
11) LINE OUT
This balanced XLR output sends a balanced signal to the mixing console
or snake in live and studio situations. The Line Out signal is post-EQ and post-reverb.
12) GROUND LIFT Occasionally, when you’re playing live and using the Line Out (11),
the soundman will detect a hum from your amp’s signal. This is often due to a ground
