OWNER’S MANUAL
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
– The
MAGELLAN
™
800
represents the latest generation in lightweight, high-output, versatile
bass amplification. With our years of research, design and manufacturing expertise, we developed this model utilizing
stringent design parameters for form, function, fit and finish. The result is an 800 watt professional high-powered tour-
class bass guitar amplifier weighing only 6.25 lbs!
Our circuitry and mechanical designs within the
MAGELLAN
™
800
deliver the most powerful, feature-laden, compact
bass amplifier available. This is exactly what players have come to expect from the
GENZLER
™ design team --
performance, versatility and reliability. From natural, pristine, transparent reproduction of the bass instrument to classic,
vintage harmonic textures with “weighted feel to the notes”, the
MG-800
provides the tonal pallet needed to cover all of
the bassist’s amplifier requirements. All of which is housed in an aircraft-grade, brushed aluminum chassis with a sleek
custom extruded front panel.
The
MAGELLAN
™
800
is equipped with a ¼” unbalanced instrument input, preamp stage clip detector, mute switch, input
pad switch, CLEAN and DRIVE preamps, dual curve CONTOUR network, 3 band active equalization with sweepable
midrange frequency, master volume control, soft-clip power management circuitry, 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 robust, lightweight 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. The
MAGELLAN’S
™
power
supply is an auto-sensing universal power supply usable from 100-240 volts, lending itself very well to international touring
players.
