User manual PEAVEY IPS 800

[. . . ] The enclosure corners are reinforced with metal corners, and a black powder-coated, perforated metal grille covers the lower half of the system to protect the woofer from external damage. An SA-1 stand mount adapter is incorporated to accommodate a speaker stand. The two-way system consists of the following driver components: a 15" Black Widow BWX SF series SPTM 2 woofer with a Kevlar/Carbon Fiber-impregnated cone and dust cap. [. . . ] The woofer is capable of over 500 Watts of continuous power handling (AES Std 21984). The high frequencies are handled by a 2" Rx22 titanium diaphragm compression driver utilizing ferrofluid cooling. This superb driver is coupled to a Quadratic Throat constant directivity waveguide (U. S. Patent #6, 059, 069) to provide smooth, even response, low distortion and good high frequency dispersion. This horn has an asymmetrical vertical polar response, aiming the main energy lobe down 10 degrees so it is aimed at the audience instead of over their heads. This reduces ceiling reflections, ensuring greater clarity and gain before feedback. The Rx22 driver features the Radialinear Planar Phase Correction System (U. S. Patent #6, 064, 745), which provides a smoother and extended high frequency response. Full-range input connection to the system is made via two 1/4" phone jacks and a four-pin Neutrik in parallel. Distortion is read from the graph as the difference between the fundamental signal (frequency response) and the desired harmonic. As an example, a distortion curve that is down 40 dB from the fundamental is equivalent to 1% distortion. Mounting This unit is not designed for overhead suspension. The SA-1 stand-mount adapter may be incorporated, and four large rubber feet are included on the bottom for floor use.
