Crate TX15
If you're the type of performer who requires the ultimate in portability, but refuse to sacrifice tone for mobility, the Crate TX15 was made for you.
With up to eight hours of battery power, Taxi lets you leave the wall outlets far behind. Dual channels allow you to control two instruments, or plug in your guitar and use the handy 1/4" & XLR combo input jack for a high-quality vocal mic. The specially designed 8" woofer and tweeter ensure clean, loud, full-range performance that will astound you. Perfect for solo performers who want to play and sing, or use a CD player/drum machine in remote areas, the TX15 includes a 120V charger/adapter for standard operation and recharging the battery.

an instrument or a high
impedance microphone to the
amplifier by means of a shielded
instrument or signal cable.

9. CD INPUT:
Use these jacks to
connect the output of a CD player,
a tape player, a rhythm machine or
any other similar source to the
amplifier by means of a shielded
signal cable. These jacks are connected
in parallel – a stereo signal
should be connected to both jacks
(the left channel to one jack, the
right channel to the other), while a
mono signal may be connected to
either jack.
10. HEADPHONES:
Use this jack to
connect a pair of stereo headphones
to the amplifier. The internal
speaker is disconnected when
the headphones jack is used.
11. LED:
When the power switch is
on and the battery is fully charged,
this LED illuminates yellow. The
LED illuminates red when the battery
needs recharging.
12. POWER:
Use this switch to turn
the amplifier on (top of the switch
depressed) and off (bottom of the
switch depressed).

13. DC CHARGER PLUG:
Use this
jack to connect the 15VDC charger
to the amplifier to recharge the
battery (power switch off) or to
supply power to the amplifier while
playing (power switch on). Plug the
charger into an AC outlet of the
proper voltage as listed on the
charger.
NOTE:
The 15VDC charger will
recharge the amplifier's battery
only when the amp is not being
played. If the amplifier is being
played while the charger is connected
and plugged into a source
of AC power, the battery will neither
charge or discharge.
14. LED:
This LED illuminates when
the amplifier is being charged.
Once the battery is fully charged,
this LED should go out. (See page
4 for complete information on the
power supply.)
