Description
The Peavey PV
1015D is a powered, two-way sound reinforcement speaker system engineered to provide very
high levels of performance in a compact powered loudspeaker. The PV
1015D is capable of generating peak
SPL up to 121 dB. The enclosure utilizes a Peavey
15” Sheffield
woofer for the lows and an RX14 titanium
diaphragm dynamic compression driver for the highs. This high-performance driver is mounted on a Peavey
patented asymmetrical Quadratic Throat Waveguide, covered under U.S. patent #6,059,069 with smooth, even
response, low distortion and good high-frequency dispersion. This waveguide has an asymmetrical vertical
polar response, aiming the main energy lobe down 10°, so it is aimed at the audience, instead of over their
heads, helping reduce ceiling reflections for greater clarity and gain before feedback. The constant directivity
characteristics provide the consistent coverage needed for a successful sound reinforcement application.
The lightweight-yet-rugged, carpet-covered trapezoidal enclosure with stand-mount cup facilitates portable
use for live music or P.A. sound. The trapezoidal cabinet has steel handles on either side for ease of portability,
and four rubber feet for floor use, while a stand-mount adapter on the bottom allows for easy speaker stand
mounting. Black steel corners provide road protection to the cabinet. A black full-length powder-coated
perforated steel grille provides driver protection and a professional appearance. The PV
1015D speaker system
includes an internal Class-D power amp to drive its own speakers, as well as an amplifier output jack to
drive another (passive) loudspeaker system. It supplies up to 400 watts peak available power to the internal
speakers, and up to 400 watts peak available power to an external 8-ohm speaker system, for a total of
800 watts peak available power. The amplifier is equipped with DDT
compression, providing protection from
excessive amplifier clipping and the consequent distortion. A balanced input to the preamp/EQ electronics
consists of one combination female XLR and 1/4” TRS phone jack. A Contour switch provides some bass and
treble lift when used as a background music source, etc. A Link Out 1/4” phone jack provides a pre-level send
for linking multiple units together.
