BassKick 200 & 300
Return:
Connect the output of the effects pedal with this input.
Line Out:
The symmetrical line output reproduces the preamplifier signal
including effects. As far as the circuit is concerned, it is located before
the power amplifier and it is thus independent of the setting of the
MASTER controller.
Headphones:
This socket serves for the connection of headphones. If the socket is
assigned, the speaker output is switched off.
Footswitch (only BK 300):
At this socket, a 1-fold footswitch (Hughes & Kettner® FS-1) can be
connected by means of which PUNCH can be switched.
External Speaker:
This is a serial connection socket for speakers that connects the
internal speaker in series with the additionally connected one. As the
resistance adds on the internal resistance, even speakers with low
impedances can be connected.

Troubleshooting
The amplifier can't be switched on.
• No mains voltage is applied. Check whether the mains connections
are established correctly.
• The mains fuse is defect. Please have the mains fuse replaced by a
new fuse with the corresponding value. In case of a new defect
please contact your BassKick™ specialist dealer.
The amplifier is cabled correctly but there is no sound.
• GAIN or MASTER are not turned up.
• A looped in effects pedal is not switched on or not cabled correctly.
Check the loop.
• A headset is plugged in so that the speaker is switched off.
Plug off the headset plug to play via the internal speaker.
When using the LINE OUT socket, there is a humming noise.
• An electrical / magnetic alternating field intersperses onto the
conduit. Use a better cable and try to minimise the interspersion by
another passing of the conduit. If this does not help, the utilisation
of a DI box is recommended.
• Due to the earthing of the connected devices, a hum pick-up
emerges. Do in no case interrupt the ground wire of the devices but
do, if possible, operate both devices at one joint power distribution!
If this is not possible, the connection must be separated galvanically
by means of a DI box.
When connecting a mixer at the LINE OUT, the signal on the PA is
completely distorted.
• The input of the mixer is not switched to line level. Switch the
input of the mixer to line level. If this is not possible, assign an
unsymmetrical (line) input at the mixer.
