Summer NAMM: PV 1600 Bi-Pack & PV 3800 Provide Easy Bi- & Tri-Amping

PV(R) 1600 BI-PACK & PV 3800 PROVIDE EASY BI- & TRI-AMPING
AUSTIN, Texas (Summer 2006 NAMM exhibit #1746) Peavey proudly introduces the PV 1600 Bi-Pack and PV 3800 power amplifiers, designed for easy bi-amping and tri-amping. Increasing your sound system's dynamic range as much as four times and maintaining clarity and punch is now as simple as plugging in a few cables.
The PV 1600 Bi-Pack is an integrated, all-in-one power solution for bi-amping non-powered speakers such as the Peavey SP(TM) 2, SP 4 or Impulse(R) 1015. The PV 1600 Bi-Pack delivers 930 watts to woofers (lows) and 350 watts to compression drivers (highs) through a specialized crossover with built-in EQ and phase adjustment. In addition to a 50 Hz bass boost with roll off, a gentle slope throughout the rest of the low frequency range is utilized up to the crossover frequency.
Add a 3,800-watt PV 3800 amp to your Bi-Pack system for a tri-amped system. Our highest-power PV Series power amp utilizes a crossover specially tailored for subwoofers and the high power necessary to drive them. Load Fault Correction circuitry along with our famous DDT(TM) speaker protection and Turn On/Turn Off protection allow operation with greater efficiency, even under difficult loads and power conditions. The PV 3800 connects to a PV 1600 Bi-Pack through a simple ¼" or XLR cable.
The PV 1600 Bi-Pack and PV 3800 power amplifiers will be available in Q3 2006 from authorized Peavey retailers.
