CARVIN ENGINEERING DATA GC412T/GC412B/GC212C GUITAR SYSTEM INSTRUCTIONS
Carvin’s SC speaker cabinets are constructed of the finest materials and are
built to the toughest standards in the industry. Moreover, they are loaded
with the best all-around sounding 12” drivers available. The Celestion G12T-75
speakers are capable of crystal clear “Clean” tones and yet can be driven hard
to achieve that familar “British” over-drive sound, with plenty of midrange
and bass response. The enclosure is built from light weight, yet incredibly
strong, poplar plywood and is covered in rich black protective vinyl. Built-in
recessed handles, steel corners and a steel mesh grill further protect your
investment.
Caster inserts are already in place if you choose to add the optional CTS4
casters.
RECEIVING INSPECTION
INSPECT YOUR SPEAKER FOR ANY DAMAGE which may have occurred during shipping.
If any damage is found, please notify the shipping company & CARVIN.
SAVE THE CARTON & ALL PACKING MATERIALS. In the event you have to re-ship your
unit, always use the original carton and packing material. This will provide
the best possible protection during shipment. CARVIN and the shipping company
are not liable for any damage caused by improper packing.
SAVE YOUR INVOICE. It will be required for warranty service if needed in the
future.
SHIPMENT SHORTAGE. If you find items missing, they may have been shipped
separately. Please allow several days for the rest of your order to arrive
before inquiring.
RECORD THE SERIAL NUMBER on the enclosed warranty card or below on this manual
for your records. Keep your portion of the card and return the portion with
your name and comments to us.
TYPICAL LOUDSPEAKER IMPEDANCE CONFIGURATIONS
Individual speaker or speaker cabinet wiring examples for total impedance.
For your records, you may wish to record the following information. Serial No.___ Invoice Date_
STEREO/MONO SWITCH
The stereo/mono switch allows you to run your stereo pre-amps, effects, and
power amps with only a single cabinet. Perfect for portable rack systems.
REAR CONNECT PLATE
Two standard 1/4” phone jacks are featured. One for connecting to the power
amp and the other for connecting to an additional speaker system.
The PH8 is our standard cable when purchasing a complete guitar amp stack. These cables feature 1/4” plugs and heavy 16 gauge copper wire. You can DAISY- CHAIN up to one additional speaker per cable by using the unused 1/4” OUTPUT” jack (right side) on your speaker jack plate. Be sure to note the total impedance to the amp so it is not lower than it’s recommended impedance. See Typical Loudspeaker Impedance Configurations.
PRECAUTIONS
- DO NOT EXCEED THE POWER RATING marked on the rear connect plate. Excessive power will destroy drivers.
- DISTORTION from power amps will destroy drivers much faster than clean power.
- WATER, MOISTURE, and DUST are harmful to drivers causing failure which is not covered under warranty.
