ENGLISH PV 1600™ Power Amplifier Congratulations! You have just taken a giant step forward towards sonic clarity in your sound system. This PV amplifier was specially designed as an integrated bi-amped power package forming a system with Peavey SP2, SP4 or Impulse 1015 speakers. Not only does it provide the correct amount of power to optimally drive these speaker systems, it also features a carefully designed electronic crossover and processing section. Using proven technology gained thro

Front Panel 4 3 5 2 1 1 INPUT GAIN (dB) The low and high channels of this amp each have individual Input Sensitivity controls. Normally these controls should be set the same but may be adjusted as needed in each situation. The setting controls the amount of signal necessary to drive the amplifier, not the output of the amplifier. A higher setting will result in more system headroom while a lower setting will result in lower system noise. 2 POWER LEDs (PWR) These indicators illuminate when t

Rear Panel 6 7 6 CIRCUIT BREAKER There is one circuit BREAKER on the PV® amplifier that limits current to the associated power transformer and protects it from overheating and possible destruction due to fault conditions in the unit. The trip current values have been carefully chosen to allow reasonable continuous power output perfor- mance, while still protecting the power transformer. This breaker should not trip unless there is a fault in the amplifier circuitry that causes excessive mains

Rear Panel 9 10 11 9 SPEAKON® OUTPUTS PV® 1600 utilizes 4-conductor Speakon connectors. Internally, the Speakons are wired with the Lows on pins 1+ and 1- and the Highs on pins 2+ and 2-. These will properly mate with all Peavey speakers that have Bi-amp inputs via Speakons. Note: For powering SP4 speakers, internal jumpers must be connected inside the speaker terminal plate (see the instructions in the PV4 owners manual). 10 FAN GRILL A two-speed DC fan supplies cool air to the amplifier

Industrial and Commercial Installations 6 CIRCUIT BREAKER For commercial and other installations where sustained high-power operation is required, the ampli- fiers should be mounted in a standard 19” rack. It is not necessary to leave a rack space between each amplifier in the stack since each fan pulls air in from the rear and exhausts the hot air out the front. However, an adequate cool air supply must be provided for the amplifier when rack mounted. The inter- nal fan must have a source of

DDT® Peavey’s patented DDT (Distortion Detection Technique) compression circuit enables the sound techni- cian to maximize the performance of the amplifier/speaker combination by preventing the power ampli- fier from running out of headroom (clipping). This fully automatic compression system features a unique circuit that senses signal conditions that might overload the amplifier. It activates compression (reduces the channel gain) when clipping is imminent. The threshold of compression is cli

Tech Info Tech info: Crossover The electro-acoustic crossover point is 1.5 kHz. The final slope is 24 dB per octave for the woofer and 18 dB per octave for the tweeter. Infrasonic filtering is present at the initial rate of 12 dB per octave, and at the final rate of 24 dB per octave. (The -3 dB filter point is at 40 Hz, and the -10 dB point is at 26 Hz.) There are no multiple-feedback filters. All filters are implemented using simple gain stages, unity gain buffers, and passive filter circui
