WARNING!
For optimum performance and reliability DO NOT PRESENT THE AMPLIFIER WITH A SPEAKER LOAD OF LESS THAN 2 OHMS, OR A
COMBINATION OF SPEAKERS THAT TOGETHER ARE LESS THAN 2 OHMS!
Using one speaker, it must be rated at 2 ohms minimum.
Using two speakers, they must be rated each at 4 ohms minimum.
Using three speakers, they must be rated each at 8 ohms minimum.
The world-famous
1000 power amplifier has been changed to the new, extended-performance
1000X. This upgraded model provides impressive
output power capability while still maintain-
ing the current and
ratings, and meets rigid industry standards for power bandwidth, slew rate, and
distortion specifications.
The new extended specs are:
525 W RMS into 4 ohms 750 W RMS into 2 ohms (per channel)
1050 W RMS into 8 ohms 1500 W RMS into 4 ohms (bridged)
compression with LED indicators and defeat switch
Slew Rate: 40 V/microsecond, stereo mode, each channel
Power Bandwidth: 10 Hz to 50
4 ohms, rated power
Total Harmonic Distortion: less than
rated power
Hum and Noise: 100
below rated power, unweighted
All the current features of the previous units have been retained, including Peavey’s patented
com-
pression system and the very flexible back-panel patching capabilities. The two-speed fan cooling system
has been improved to automatically provide additional cooling for the two-ohm load conditions.
