Rabs Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 By the way... whats that last input/output hole for on the far right? (headphone socket?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 Now you need one of these cool 4-10 cabs. They are pretty cheap if you can find one around locally. It would be the perfect cab for that head. LOL.. Nooooo, stop putting ideas in my head ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan H Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 By the way... whats that last input/output hole for on the far right? (headphone socket?) That third input isn't factory...you can tell by how it's slightly lower than the other two, and is a more modern style of jack. I've looked at lots of pics of the 2195 on the internet; none of them have that third jack. Somebody modded it at some point, no clue what that jack could be for. -Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now really need to open it up and have a look inside there (not that I will know what im looking at ;)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 By the way... whats that last input/output hole for on the far right? (headphone socket?) Ooooh I did no notice that. It's not supposed to be there. I checked the schematic and a bunch of photos. Someone added it. So the question obviously is... what is it? Normally one would put outputs on the back but I don't see the need for another input so it has to be an output - logically. Headphone does make sense. Try it. You've nothing to lose really. It could also be a slave output (direct out) like we mentioned earlier). You could slide the chassis out a take a pic. someone might be able to see what that jack is wired to then.

surfpup Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 What would I have to do.. Take all the knobs and jack nuts off? Or will it all slide out? No the knobs will slide out with the face plate. Most Marshalls have chassis bolts that go through the bottom of the cab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duhh, I should have known that.. lol.. well heres some pics.... so anyone know what that third socket is for feel free to let me know :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Those pics are perfect - now we just need someone who know amps to tell us what that input is for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 well heres some pics.... so anyone know what that third socket is for feel free to let me know :) As it seems to be wired up to the 'Middle' pot can I ask, Rabs, does that pot have any effect on the sound produced by the amp?

Yes they all worked.. its the mid eq... Of course I could barely hear it cos I didn't want to blow my speaker :) but they all definitely had some effect even if small.. (you can just about hear it on the vid if you turn it up) And im not sure its actually wired to that pot, just the wires go behind it and are the red and yellow wires that you can see. I would have to open it again to be sure though. Actually in looking again you can see here its not wired to the pot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan H Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 In this image you can also see a resistor or two on the input itself...wonder what those could be for... -Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Scales Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Maybe it was used to act in some sort of PA capacity - CD music in, voice in...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Based on where the wires are inserted on the board (far away from the other inputs) I'd say it's gotta be an output. The most logical choices would be headphone or line output. Try it. You ain't gonna break nothin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badbluesplayer Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 What's the capacitor number that has the wires hooked in there? I can't read it cause it's too blurry. C12? It looks like the wires have shielding hooked up to the pot and then the insulated leads run to the board If it's C12, then it looks like a preamp out or power amp in. It's between the tone stack and the master volume. The resistors are 1M, so that suggests an input. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense with a relatively high-wattage solid state head in a compact form; perfect for an external power amp. -Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badbluesplayer Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Check and see if you get anything in some headphones or plug it up to the effects loop return of another amp and see if there's any sound. If so, then it's probably a D.I. that's independent of the master volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
