Power Led; Circuit Breakers - Peavey PV 2000 Guia De Funcionamiento

Congratulations! You have just purchased the world's finest, low-cost power amplifier, the Pv'" 2000.
The amplifier features include a 2-way crossover and sub-sonic filter for each channel. The crossover
frequency is fixed at 150 Hz, which allows subwoofers to be driven to extremely high sound pressure
levels. The sub-sonic filter is fixed at 40 Hz to prevent unwanted low end rumble. This amplifier uses
proven technology gained from years of amplifier design, taking advantage of the rugged steel can
TO-3 output devices for reliability. Unlike typical home stereo units, the PV 2000 employs massive
power transformers, very effective two-speed fan cooling, and offers impressive specifications and
features not found on any other competitive unit in this price range. This amplifier was designed to
drive 2 ohm loads per channel, thus delivering awesome performance levels at 4 ohm Bridge mode.
The PV 2000 offers rugged rack-mountable construction and more than adequate patching capability.
The front panel contains a rocker mains switch, an LED power indicator, and dual LED DDT'" activation
indicators. The back panel of each amplifier has an input level control, dual l/4" phone jack inputs,
jack output for each channel's high-frequency crossover. The resetable mains breaker is also located
on the back. Additionally, the back contains switches for Stereo/Bridge select and DDT defeat, sub-
sonic filter and active crossover switches.
Illuminates when DDT compression is taking place in the channel. With the Enable/Defeat switch on
the back panel in the Defeat position, this LED indicates when channel clipping is occurring.
Illuminates when AC mains power is being supplied to the amp and both channels are operational. If
either channel were to experience fault conditions, exceed the safe operating temperature limits, or
have the associated circuit breaker trip, then the power LED will go out, indicating such conditions
exist.
There are two circuit breakers (one for each channel) on the PV'" 2000 have only one. These breakers
are provided to limit the current to the associated power transformer and protect it from overheating
and possible destruction due to fault conditions in the amplifier. The trip current values have been
