Description
The Peavey PV 2015D is a powered, quasi three-way, sound reinforcement speaker system engineered to provide
very high levels of performance in a compact powered loudspeaker. The PV 2015D is capable of generating peak
SPL up to 127 dB. The enclosure utilizes dual Peavey 15" Sheffield woofers 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 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. 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 2015D speaker system includes an internal Class-D power amp, supplying up to 800 watts peak
available power to the internal speakers. 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.
