In its development, great emphasis was placed on an effective equalizer circuit. It is specially designed for use with electric guitars. The Hi and Low rotary encoders allow for far-reaching sound variations and adjustment of numerous guitar sounds. So the real feel of a tube amplifier is immediately present.
The input sensitivity can be adjusted with a three-way switch (0.68 V / 1.4 V / 1.2 V). Therefore, even conventional floor pedals can be used to control the unit. Locking XLR inputs with balanced or symmetrical 6.3 mm jack inputs are available as input options. Speakers with a minimum total impedance of 4 ohms can be connected via Speakon-compatible output sockets or 6.3 mm jack outputs.
Thanks to switchable rumble filters (Lowcut) at 40 Hz, unnecessary overloading of the speakers with low frequencies can be effectively prevented. A more compact guitar sound without fuzzy bass is also delivered through the filters, especially at high volumes.
Further features of the Palmer Macht 402 are a solid metal housing with highly efficient switching power supply and effective cooling via a low-noise fan. Protection circuits against overvoltage and DC, short circuits and overheating. LED displays for Clip, Protect, Power, Mode (bridge/parallel) and signal provide information on the operating status. Ground loops can be prevented with the ground lift switch and the limiter ensures overload-free music enjoyment.
