Peavey PV2600 Power Amps Review

The PV2600 is able to accept stereo or mono inputs, making it suitable for use by DJs as well as bands, and due to its very high output capacity is able to fill medium to large concert halls with the clean, uncolored sound that Peavey users have loved for decades. The unit is also built to last. With its heavy metal construction and extensive circuitry for cooling and protection, the PV2600 is able to survive the high range of abuses that can occur with equipment that is used by touring acts.

Like the other products across the PV power amplifier range, the PV2600 utilizes DDT to protect both its internal components, and any attached speakers in the event of an input overload. DDT, otherwise known as Distortion Detection Technique, utilizes specialized circuitry in order to detect when sound is coming into the amplifier at too high a volume. An LED on the front of the unit lights up to notify the owner that a volume change needs to be made, and the PV2600’s internal volume is automatically lowered to prevent the speakers from being destroyed. The PV2600 also utilizes an internal cooling fan and heat sink to ensure that the unit will remain cool under hot stage lighting.

Legendary amplification company Peavey, founded in 1965, broke new ground with its introduction of the PV series of power amplifiers by including features normally included only in far more expensive equipment, in a package that was nearly as powerful, and far less expensive, than the flagship CS and GPS power amplifiers. Peavey PV2600 power amplifiers are the top product in the PV series, which also includes the PV900 and PV1500 amplifiers, along with the PV1600 and PV3800 bi-amp and tri-amp products. The PV2600 is able to output at a maximum of 1800 watts in bridged monaural mode, or in dual channel mode, at up to 900 watts using 4 ohm speakers or 550 watts at 8 ohms.

While the PV2600 provides excellent sound quality and amplification for medium and large venues, smaller locations could be easily overpowered by it. Bands that are still on the club circuit may be happier with the lower cost options in the PV amplifier range such as the PV900 or PV1500. Likewise, the PV2600 may not provide quite enough power for very large or outdoor concert venues. Bands that are performing in large venues would do well to consider the Peavey GPS3500, which has proven itself as the ideal amplifier for the largest concert halls.

Peavey PV2600 Power Amplifiers - Summary:
• Rated for up to 1800 watts of output power in bridged mono operation
• Heavy construction and numerous protective features ensure that equipment will not be damaged by issues with power or input levels
• Stereo and mono operation lend the versatility necessary for band members or for DJs
• Ideal for medium to large venues; bands playing in clubs or at very large outdoor venues might be better served by other Peavey Power Amplifiers
