Peavey CS 400x - Page 3

WARNING!
For optimum performance and reliability DO MOT 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 rtated at 2 ofimj minimum.
Using two speakers, they must be reated each at 4 ohms minimum.
Using three speakers, they must be rated each at 8 ohms minimum.
The world famous CS® 400 power amplifier has now been changed to the new CS® 400X with
new extended performance, providing impressive new two ohm output power capability while
still maintaining the current 4 and 8 ohm ratings and awesome industry standards for power
bandwidth, slew rate, and distortion specifications.
Following are the new extended specs:
210 W RMS into 4- ohms...300 W RMS into 2 ohms (per channel)
420 W RMS into 8 ohms...600 W RMS into 4 ohms (bridged)
DDT ™ compression with LED indicators and defeat switch
Slew Rate: 40 V/microsecond, stereo mode, each channel
Power Bandwidth: 10 Hz to 50 KHz <§» 4 ohms, rated power
Total Harmonic Distortion: Less than 0.03%, rated power
Hum and Noise: 100 dB below rated power, unweighted
All the current features of the old units have been retained, including Peavey's patented DDT “
(Distortion Detection Technique) Compression Circuitry, and the very flex ible back panel
patching capabilities. The two speed fan cooling system has been improved to provide addi¬
tional cooling, when needed, for the two ohm load conditions.
