User manual PEAVEY CONTINENTAL SYSTEM DATASHEET

[. . . ] This unit can be driven in fullrange or bi-amp mode simply by plugging into the desired jack on the input plate. The trapezoidal design of the enclosure allows arrays to be constructed much more easily than when using a rectangular shaped box. This shape also greatly reduces the buildup of standing waves on the inside of the enclosure. [. . . ] This shape also greatly reduces the buildup of standing waves on the inside of the enclosure. This ensures a minimum of mid-bass and midrange coloration of the reproduced sound due to the cabinet. The SPTM 1G is constructed of 3/4" plywood and covered with Peavey's durable black carpet. Polymer corners are also a part of the unit to provide added protection to the enclosure. A powder-coated expanded metal grille covers the lower part of the front of the enclosure to protect the low-frequency driver from unforeseen accidents. Sound Guard 44XTTM, a version of Peavey's proprietary highfrequency driver protection circuit designed especially for the 44XTTM, has been included as an integral part of the crossover for the SPTM 1G. The input signal is routed through the Sound Guard 44XTTM circuit in both full-range and bi-amp modes of operation. When the highfrequency drive level to the SPTM 1G exceeds a predetermined threshold, the Sound Guard 44XTTM circuit is engaged. The loudspeaker system shall be a Peavey model SPTM 1G. POWER HANDLING There are many different approaches to power handling ratings. Peavey Electronics rates this unit's system power handling using a modified form of the AES Standard 2-1984. It utilizes audio band limited (20 Hz to 20 kHz) pink noise with peaks over four times the RMS level. This strenuous test signal assures the user that every portion of this system can withstand today's high technology music. The test signal contains large amounts of very low-frequency energy, effectively simulating the frequency content of live music situations. The full measure of high frequencies in the test signal allow for exposure of the speaker system to synthesized tones that may extend beyond audibility. This rating is contingent on having a minimum of 3 dB of amplifier headroom FREQUENCY RESPONSE This measurement is useful in determining how accurately a given unit reproduces an input signal. The frequency response of the SPTM 1G is measured at a distance of 1 meter using a 2. 8 volt swept-sine input signal. [. . . ] This rating is contingent on having a minimum of 3 dB of amplifier headroom FREQUENCY RESPONSE This measurement is useful in determining how accurately a given unit reproduces an input signal. The frequency response of the SPTM 1G is measured at a distance of 1 meter using a 2. 8 volt swept-sine input signal. As shown in Figure 1, the selected drivers in the SPTM 1G combine to give a smooth frequency response from 50 Hz to 19. 0 kHz.
