K200A3 [message #12518]

I just picked up a K200A3 and have a couple of simple questions.

I have played through K250s before and this head seems to have quite a bit less volume. Is that normal or could it possibly be cap/component related? Part of it seems to be a different taper to the volume pots compared to the 250 (analog vs linear maybe?) and I haven't been able to play this through the same cabinet I ran the K250s into. Both channels seem to be about the same volume level and the amp isn't noisy.

Also, are the high and low inputs supposed to work differently on this version? The high inputs seem more like bright inputs as opposed to the low input attenuating the signal like on the K250 and my Fenders.

I'm sure that I'll have more questions once I have time to mess with it and open it up. I already have to replace the footswitch XLR jack since the leads are laying inside the cabinet. I assume that the footswitch is needed to activate the harmonic clipping and distortion circuits? They don't work right now without it.

Is a schematic available for this amp?
