Peavey makes some good amps, and the Peavey PV 1500 is no exception. Also, there is no question that this is a clean sounding and powerful unit. The problem is the cooling system. It may keep the amp cool, but it is a 2 speed system, and it is very noisy. We have one of these at our church, and it makes more noise while idling than our other 4 a...
You typically buy a power amplifier because you need good clean sound reproduction and more power to enable you to play at much larger venues. In my case, I needed a sound system that would adequately support my guitar, my bass, my keyboard synthesizer and could also handle vocals and double as studio monitor for my home recording studio. In ess...
I Received my Peavey IPR 1600 a few months ago, I already have owned a Peavey PV 1500, which I use for mobile DJ at wedding receptions, hooked up to a pair of Peavey SP2s, I did a/b test on some music comparing amps, and the new IPR 1600 compared well to the Peavey PV1500, The new IPR 1600 sounds great and power out apears t...

This is a power amp designed for touring sound systems use. Its made by a Swedish company that is known for their craftsmanship. This amp has a lot of really cool features that come into play really well when being used in a live setting. For instance, the power amp is dual channel. It also has adjustable wattage and ohm settings, which can help...
The Yamaha P2200 is a simple stereo power amplifier that can be used with just about any set of passive monitors. The P2200 wasn't a piece of gear that I went searching for in any capacity, but merely used it in tandem with a set of monitors in a professional recording studio. It is actually a pretty powerful amplifier, so I'd recommend using ...
The Crown XLS202 is a stereo power amplifier that I've used in a professional recording studio setting. I've used the amp with a set of Yamaha NS-10Ms, which of course are passive monitors. I also run a Crown D75 amplifier with a set of NS-10Ms at home, so I'm familiar with both other Crown amps and with what Yamaha NS-10Ms sound like. The XL...
(Originally written by double07/translated from Audiofanzine FR) I use it as a bass amp and feed it with a tube preamp. Pros: Weight (only 26 lb.), connections, noiseless (no fan), jack inputs and outputs, no heat, linear sound response. It's more expensive than other amps but I trust this brand (which I...
(Originally written by stephane837/translated from Audiofanzine FR) I've owned the Max 860 for one year. No problems until now. It turned to auto protect mode so I used it in parallel mode... Limiter = off; 50-Hz filter = on; channel 1 I connected it in stereo again and it works perfectly. Weird!<br ...
(Originally written by scalpa88/translated from Audiofanzine FR) I only use it for a big K&H O900 subwoofer in mono bridge mode (3200 watts). Huge output power!!!! Very low THD and impressive transient response considering the price. I didn't want to spend too much on an amplifier. I tried out this one, which was four times as ex...
