Owner’s Manual
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION – The SHUTTLE
®
9.2 represents the 2nd generation of our widely acclaimed SHUTTLE
®
series of light weight, high output bass ampliers. This model has been designed with our unique ULTRA LIGHT
unied design process, yielding a 900 watt professional high powered tour-class bass guitar amplier, weighing only
4 lbs! This 2nd generation SHUTTLE
®
amplier now incorporates our unique 3-Dimensional Power Management
circuitry along with other enhancements like increased tube gain and high efciency thermal management.
Our proprietary 3DPM™ technology insures greater and more solid sounding output while retaining the feel and
playability of a more traditional tube based power amplier. When driving the power amp hard the player can feel
increased heft and girth of the individual notes, while maintaining dynamics and articulation. The result is an amplier
that achieves a more 3 dimensional tone and feel, like a tube amplier power section, without the anemic atness
other amplier designs can exhibit. As well, our PATENTED P.H.A.T. (Proprietary Heat Abatement Technology)
topology enhances the SHUTTLE
®
9.2 and insures robust and reliable, high output performance in a tremendously
compact and convenient package; blending the best of analog and digital platforms to produce the ultimate in warmth,
punch and power.
The SHUTTLE
®
9.2 is equipped with a ¼” unbalanced instrument input, preamp stage clip detector, mute switch
with LED indicator, 12AX7 tube preamp with extended range variable input gain, 3 switched signal shape lters with
LED indicators, 3 band active equalization with sweepable midrange frequency, master volume control, proprietary
3DPM™ power management, ¼” tuner output, aux. input, effects loop, balanced direct out with ground lift/pre-post/
mic-line switches, head phone output, and 2 Neutrik NL-4 “Speak-On”™ speaker jacks.
The power amp is a powerful, light weight Class D design and is supported by a state-of-the-art high frequency
Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS), which does away with the weight of a traditional power transformer. For global
performance requirements the SHUTTLE
®
9.2’s power supply is usable from 100-240 volts, lending itself well to
international touring players.
