Congratulations on your purchase of the VOX AC4C1!
Based on the legendary VOX Top Boost circuit, this is the perfect balance between com-
pact size and killer sound. Designed to give you rocking tone without waking the neigh-
bours, the AC4C1's class A power stage can be cranked to stadium tour saturation levels
without leaving your sitting room or home studio! A luxury which is hard to find in an all-
tube amp.
Using the same tube compliment and circuit topology as the original "Top Boost" preamp
circuit design, the AC4C1 will give you the unmistakeable VOX tone that is loved and
desired by VOX fans and tone-chasers the world over!
ENJOY!

This controls the preamp volume and will determine the amount of
preamp distortion. For a clean sound, the knob should be set some-
where before 12 o'clock and for more distortion... crank it!
This controls the low frequencies in your sound—from thin and light
when turned down (counter clockwise) to warm and fat when turned
up full (clockwise) and all points in-between.
This controls the high frequencies in your sound—from soft and
smooth when turned down (counter clockwise) to bright and cutting
when cranked (clockwise) and all points in-between.
This controls the overall volume of your amplifier and because this is
a single ended, class A design it will also have an effect on the amount
of distortion in the power amp.
This will tell you if your amp is on or off!
