At the NAMM 2012 Show, Peavey Electronics introduced the new PVX Series of active and passive loudspeakers.
The compact, portable PVXp 12 and PVXp 15 active (powered) models incorporate 800 watts of peak power, combined with proprietary DDT compression technology to maintain clarity throughout the mix. A module bay allows for use of expansion modules to increase the functionality of the enclosures.
The PVX 12 and PVX 15 passive (non-powered) loudspeakers are specified as being capable of handling 400 watts program and 800 watts peak power, respectively.
Peavey PVX enclosures are constructed with heavy-duty Peavey woofers with 2-3/8-inch voice coils for the lows and low-mids, while the Peavey RX14 1.4-inch titanium diaphragm compression driver, coupled to a constant directivity horn, handles the highs and mid-highs.
All have injection-molded enclosures that include a pole mount, three multi-point flying locations and a tilt-back design to accommodate use as a personal monitor. A black powder-coated steel grille provides driver protection and a clean, professional appearance.
The Peavey PVX Series passive enclosures will be available in Q1 2012, and the PVXp active enclosures will be available in Q3 2012.
