6505???

Tube Guitar Amplifier

Congratulations on your purchase of Peavey's 6505 guitar amplifier. 6505 Series amps feature five 12AX7 preamp tubes and four 6L6GC power amp tubes, with presence and resonance controls and three-band EQ for taming their notorious tone. These features, combined with its classic ultra-high gain preamp capabilities and monstrous 120 W power section result in an amp with awesome stage presence and enough volume for any gig. For maximum flexibility, a footswitchable effects loop, preamp output and bright/crunch voicing switches (rhythm channel) have also been included. Because of its singular design and distinguished tone, the 6505 is in a category all its own.

FEATURES:

???120 watts RMS into 16, 8, or 4 ohms (switchable)

???Five 12AX7 preamp tubes & four 6L6GC power amp tubes

???High & low gain inputs

???Two-channel preamp switchable on front panel or footswitch

???Rhythm channel: pre-/post-gain, bright & crunch switches

???Lead channel: pre-/post-gain

???Channels share three-band EQ

???Presence & resonance controls

???Switchable post-EQ effects loop

???Preamp output

???Footswitch included

Top Panel

Inputs (1, 2)

The 6505 input block features HIGH [1] and NORMAL [2] GAIN inputs. The HIGH GAIN input has twice the gain of the NORMAL gain input and should be used when maximum overdrive is desired. When both inputs are used simultaneously, the 6505 automatically switches to the normal gain mode (6 dB pad). Situations where both inputs are used simultaneously (alternating between two guitars on stage using both inputs, etc.) should be avoided if peak overdrive is expected from the amp. Experimentation with your particular guitar/pickup into each input will determine which input is best for your sound.

Channel Select Switch (3)

This allows selection of the RHYTHM or LEAD channel. Depressing the switch to the ???in??? position activates the LEAD channel. The red LED light will illuminate to indicate that the LEAD channel is active. In the ???out??? position the RHYTHM channel is activated and the green LED illuminates. Channels may be remotely selected using the 6505 footswitch. If remote selection is desired, the channel select switch must be set to the ???in??? position (LEAD channel).

Rhythm Pre & Post Gain (4, 11)

The RHYTHM channel PRE [4] and POST GAIN [11] operate in the same manner as the LEAD channel gain controls. For most applications, the RHYTHM channel should be set up with the PRE GAIN at the lower, ???cleaner??? settings (0-4) and the POST GAIN set for overall volume. The RHYTHM channel can be converted to a second channel by activating the CRUNCH SWITCH [6].

Bright Switch (5)

Activates a preset boost in the treble frequencies (6 dB at 2 kHz) and affects only the rhythm channel.

Crunch Select Switch (6)

Boosts the gain of the rhythm channel to create a second ???lead??? channel. Depress to the ???in??? position to activate.

Lead Pre & Post Gain (7, 12)

The LEAD CHANNEL PRE GAIN [7] controls the input level and works with the LEAD CHANNEL POST GAIN [12] to determine the overall volume/overdrive of the LEAD Channel. Lower settings of the PRE GAIN control produce a relatively clean, undistorted sound while the middle to high settings produce harmonically rich distortion and screaming overdrive/sustain. Since both PRE and POST GAIN controls work in ???combo,??? a basic rule-of-thumb setup procedure is to begin with both controls in the lower settings (0-2). Using the PRE GAIN control, dial in the amount of overdrive/sustain you want for the LEAD channel. Then, with the POST GAIN control adjust for overall volume.

Equalization (8, 9, 10)

The 6505 equalization block features passive LOW, MID and HIGH EQ that is custom tailored to the 6505 sound.

Resonance & Presence (13, 14)

Unique to the 6505, the RESONANCE [13] control can be set to boost the gain of the power amp in the low frequencies at the resonance/attenuation point of the speaker cabinet. In simple terms, the RESONANCE control works like a low EQ to offset low-end frequency drop-out. The PRESENCE [14] control works in the same manner, boosting the high frequencies. Experimentation using your particular speaker cabinet along with personal taste will determine your setting for these important controls.

Standby Switch (15)

This switch allows the 6505 to be placed in a non-operational standby mode. When the standby switch is activated the tubes remain hot and ready for instantaneous operation, eliminating warm-up time. The STANDBY LED indicator light will illuminate when the amp is in the operational mode.

Power Switch (16)

This switch supplies power to the unit. Depressed to the ???on??? position, the POWER LED indicator light will illuminate indicating power is being supplied to the unit.

Rear Panel

20 22

Fuse (17)

A 5 amp fuse is located within the cap of the fuseholder. It must be replaced with the same type and value in order to avoid damage to the equipment and to prevent voiding the warranty. If the amp repeatedly blows fuses, it should be taken to a qualified service center for repair.

WARNING: The fuse should only be replaced when the power cord has been disconnected from its power source.

Line Cord (120 V units only) (18)

For your safety, we have incorporated a three-wire line (mains) cable with proper grounding facilities. It is not advisable to remove the ground pin under any circumstances. If it is necessary to use the 6505 without proper grounding facilities, suitable grounding adapters should be used. Greatly reduced shock hazard exists when the unit is operated with the proper grounded receptacles.

Ground Switch (19)

This three position, rocker-type switch should be operated in the center (zero) position for most applications. If hum or noise is noticed coming from the speaker enclosure(s) with the ground switch in the center position, place the ground switch to positive or negative (+ or -) to minimize hum. Should a hum/noise problem continue, consult your authorized Peavey Dealer, the Peavey factory or a qualified service technician.

NOTE: The ground switch is not functional on 220/240 volt models.

Effects Send/Effects Return (20, 21)

Signals are supplied to outboard effects or signal processing units by patching from the EFFECTS SEND [20] output into the outboard unit(s) and back into the EFFECTS RETURN [21] input using shielded cable with 1/4" phono jacks. Only non-gain effects devices (chorus, reverb, delay, etc.) should be used in the effects loop. Remote (on/off) selection of outboard effects devices can be achieved using the 6505 footswitch.

Preamp Out (22)

This output can be used to send a preamped signal from the 6505 to a mixing console, etc., using shielded cable. Patching from the PREAMP OUT does not affect the normal operation of the amplifier.

Rear Panel

Remote Footswitch Jack (23)

Provided for the connection of the supplied remote footswitch. When the footswitch is plugged into the remote footswitch jack, the Channel Select switch [3] must be pressed to the ???in??? position for remote selection to operate. Remote selection of the LEAD or RHYTHM channel (left footswitch button) or outboard devices in the effects loop (right footswitch button) is possible with the remote footswitch.

Speaker Outputs (24)

Paralleled 1/4" output jacks for connecting speaker enclosure(s) to the amplifier (minimum: 4 ohms). When using more than one enclosure, be sure to calculate the total impedance and set the Impedance Switch [25] accordingly. (See section on IMPEDANCE SWITCH).

IMPORTANT: Use only high quality, UNshielded cable for speaker connections.

Impedance Selector Switch (25)

Use to select the appropriate impedance of the speaker enclosure(s). If two enclosures of equal impedance are used, the switch should be set at one half of that value (e.g., for two 16 ohm enclosures, set switch to 8 ohms; for two 8 ohm enclosures, set switch to 4 ohms).

Speaker Connection

When connecting the amplifier to the speaker enclosure, make sure to set the impedance selector switch on the rear of the unit to the impedance that matches your enclosure. When two enclosures of equal impedance are used, set the switch to one half the impedance of one enclosure (see [25] Impedance Selector Switch). The 6505 is designed to operate into a minimum of 4 ohms.
