1. Introduction Welcome to B! Thank you for choosing the Compact 603. The Compact 603 is a professional, compact and powerful amplifier system. Especially developed for the enhancement of acoustic instruments it is nonetheless suitable for other instruments, even electrical ones.

4. Starting up short flicker can be accepted, to be on the safe side you should reduce the gain slightly to achieve an optimal and distortion-free performance. 4.1 Cabling and switching on Before connecting to mains, please ensure that your local mains voltage is suitable for the voltage of the device (e.g. 120V in the USA, 230V in Europe). The relevant specs and safety symbols are printed on the rear side of the unit. Connect all cables according to your application and switch the amplifier on.
5.2 Effects 5.4 Phantom power The Compact 603 has a built-in (internal) digital effect processor, with the select-switch you can choose between 4 different effects: Microphones requiring 48V phantom power can be connected to the XLR-socket of channel 2 directly. Factory-provided phantom power is activated but, if required, may be deactivated by an internal jumper.
