® PV SERIES STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER INTRODUCTION Congratulations! You have just purchased a Peavey Electronics PV Series power amplifier. Using proven technology gained through years of amplifier design, this unit takes advantage of rugged TO-3P output devices mounted on massive aluminum extrusions and dissipates heat via an extremely quiet and effective 2- speed fan. PV amplifiers employ mammoth toroidal power transformers and offer impressive specifications and features not found on similarly p

2 3 3 2 5 1 4 4 1 FRONT PANEL FEATURES (1) INPUT GAIN (dB) These controls are used to adjust the input gain of each channel. They determine how “loud” each channel of the power amplifier will sound for a given input signal level. Maximum input gain is achieved at the fully clockwise setting (+32 dB, 40 X), and this setting yields maximum mixer/system headroom. A setting of less than fully clockwise will yield lower system noise at the expense of mixer/system headroom. Turning the control fu

This breaker is provided to limit current to the associated power transformer, and protect 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 performance, while still protecting the power transformer. This breaker should not trip unless there is a faul

outputs are in parallel and the speaker connection cables can be terminated with banana plugs or ® stripped wires for use in the binding post terminals, or can be connected using the Speakon outputs (9). For sustained high-power applications, either outputs can be used; however, exercise care to assure the correct speaker phasing. The red binding posts are the signal outputs from each channel, and the black binding posts are chassis ground. The red binding post should be connected to the positiv

(14) COMBO INPUT CONNECTOR The combo connector offers both female XLR and 1/4" phone jack balanced inputs for each channel. The XLR is wired with pin 1 as ground, pin 2 positive input, and pin 3 negative input. The 1/4" phone jack is a tip/ring/sleeve (3-conductor) type, with the tip being positive input, the ring negative input, and the sleeve ground. It is important to realize that the XLR, 1/4" jack, and barrier strip inputs are all in parallel; therefore a balanced input to the associated c

BRIDGE MODE The Bridge mode on stereo amplifiers is often misunderstood relating to actual operation and usage. In basic terms, when a 2-channel amplifier is operated in the Bridge mode, it is converted into a single-channel unit with a power rating equal to the sum of the power rating for each channel, at a load of twice that of the single-channel rating. For example, the PV 1500 is rated at 500 watts RMS per channel into 4 ohms. The Bridge rating is 1000 watts RMS into 8 ohms (minimum load). B

INSTALLATIONS INDUSTRIELLES ET COMMERCIALES Pour une installation dans le but d’une utilisation prolongée à gros volume, l’unité doit être montée dans un support rack standard 19". Il n’est pas nécessaire de laisser des unités vides entre les amplificateurs car la ventilation se fait dans le sens arrière-avant de votre unité. Néanmoins, une alimentation en air frais doit être prévue. Le ventilateur interne doit être capable d’envoyer de l’air non-préchauffé par un autre système. Il commencera en
