The PV1600 has the same capabilities found in Peavey's instrument and vocal power amplifiers, protecting its internal components from the damage that can be caused by power spikes or input overload. If the input volume is high enough to cause speaker clipping, the PV1600 automatically reduces its input gain to compensate and prevent permanent component or speaker damage. When this happens, a light on the front of the unit switches on, warning the owner that corrections need to be made. The PV1600 is also equipped with internal cooling fans, keeping the unit within the proper operating temperature ranges at all times.
Audiophiles have known for years that by sending bass and treble frequencies across discrete signal paths, cross talk and distortion are reduced, resulting in cleaner sound reproduction. All of the best home stereo systems are bi-amped, and thanks to the PV1600, this capability can be brought to live music venues. The PV1600 is specifically designed to interface with the Peavey SP2, SP4, or Impulse 1015 speakers. These speakers work with bi-amped cables, reducing speaker clutter by requiring just two connections on the back of the amplifier. Although these speakers are the best to use with the PV1600 due to the fact that its programming utilizes certain tweaks that are tailored for the response of these speakers, any similarly designed speakers can be used.
Peavey PV1600 Power Amplifiers also provide room to grow. The system is designed to be connected directly to the Peavey PV3800, which provides an additional 2650 watts to subwoofers. This innovation gives owners of the PV1600 an inexpensive upgrade path from a bi-amped system to a tri-amped one, without needing to purchase all new equipment. While all amplifiers across the PV product range are suitable for DJs and front of house systems, the PV1600 is the only one designed specifically for the task. For any situation in which the best possible combination of sound quality, volume, and attractive price point are required, the PV1600 is the ideal choice.
Peavey has been providing top quality amplification for bands and sound engineers since 1965, and has built its name on a reputation for superb sound at price points that can not be matched by the competition. Peavey PV1600 Power Amplifiers expand upon this tradition by providing Peavey's first ever solution specifically designed for DJs, PAs, and front of house systems, providing a unique approach to bi-amped sound not found in any other amplifiers across the PV product range. Additionally, the PV1600 is easily upgradeable for even better sound reproduction.
Peavey PV1600 Power Amplifiers - Summary:
* Provides up to 930 watts at 4 ohms for low frequencies and 350 watts at 4 ohms for high frequencies
* Bi-amp capability provides a signal path that is free of interference and cross talk, specifically tailored for DJs, PAs, and front of house systems
* Contains the same protective circuitry found in Peavey's instrument and vocal power amplifiers
* Easy upgrade path to tri-amped sound with the addition of the PV3800

Peavey PV900 Power Amplifiers are ideal for professional rehearsal situations, or performances at small venues. Additionally, combined with a mixing board, the PV900 can be an ideal front of house amplifier for an auditorium with good acoustics, where clean sound is necessary but high volume is not. For bands that perform at large, outdoor, or very noisy venues, Peavey produces several amplifiers that are able to produce much higher volumes, such as the CS3000 or CS4000, which still maintain Peavey's typically affordable price points.
The name Peavey is synonymous with high quality amplification. Since 1965, Peavey has been an industry leader in great sounding, low cost amplification, and Peavey PV1500 Power Amplifiers continue this longstanding tradition. The PV amplifier product range provides enough amplification power for small concert venues, while including many of the same protective capabilities found in Peavey's more expensive products. The PV1500 is rated for a maximum output power of 1000 watts, when operating in bridged monaural mode. In stereo mode, or when in normal dual channel monaural operation, the PV1500 sends 500 watts per channel to 4 ohm speakers, or 300 watts per channel to 8 ohm speakers.
There are some performance situations where only the most powerful amplifier will do, and QSC RMX 5050 Power Amplifiers fit that bill. QSC has been providing top quality amplification to professional musicians for over four decades, and the RMX 5050 is the new flagship of the RMX power amplifier line, providing up to 5000 watts of muscle. The RMX 5050 can be the backbone of any touring band's sound system, providing enough power to reach the back rows of virtually any indoor or outdoor concert venue.
QSC has been among the top players in the sound amplification industry since the 1960s. Their unique combination of innovative technologies, accurate tonal response, and raw power has made them popular with all types of musicians and sound engineers for decades. This tradition has been continued with their QSC RMX 850 Power Amplifiers. The RMX 850 is the entry level amplifier in the RMX series, producing plenty of raw muscle and superlative tone at one of the lowest price points ever.
