[quote name='Ray' post='305426' date='Oct 13 2008, 12:58 PM']It says in the manual for my Aguilar head that phantom power will not affect the unit and is safe to use.
As has been said above, check with the manufacturer.[/quote]
My AG500 is not phantom Power safe. Is is from late 2006.
Since August 2007 they changed that. This was told to be by Mr. Dave Boonshoft:
Hi Pedro,
I sorry, I can see I wasn't clear. We changed the circuit so that the DI is protected in August 2007.
Apparently, between the on-line manual and the paper one, the manual information is not consistent-but the DI is!
What I was trying to say was that we changed the DI so that there is no chance of phantom power damage; but that prior to doing this we have not heard about any phantom power damage on this amp.
I hope this is more clear now. If you think others may have found my answer confusing, feel free to post my reply.
Best Regards,
Dave
