Summary of Contents for Peavey SP 4P

  • Page 1 SP®4P Powered Speaker System Product Specifications www.peavey.com...
  • Page 3 ENGLISH SP®4P The Peavey® SP®4P is a powered, bi-amplified, two-way speaker system engineered to provide very high levels of performance in a compact powered loudspeaker. This quasi-three-way powered system is comprised of a 1000 W peak switching power amplifier driving a pair of 15” Black Widow® BWX series woofers, now with a long throw voice coil.
  • Page 4 A typical signal source for the line-level inputs of the Peavey SP®4P would be a sound reinforcement mixing console (mixer) or the output from a CD player, MP3 player or tape deck. A dynamic microphone can be connected directly and used as well.

  • Page 5: On/Off Switch

    ON-OFF SWITCH (1) This rocker switch supplies AC power to the SP®4P when switched to the ON position. The ON position is with the top side of the switch pushed “in” or nearly flush with the rear panel. FUSE (2) The unit is AC power line fuse protected from overloads and fault conditions with a slow-blow 5 x 20mm 250V fuse.
  • Page 6 Changing the Voltage Range of the SP®4P First, make sure the SP®4P is disconnected from the power line, and that the power switch (1) is in the OFF position. Second, unscrew the screws holding the clear switch protector on the voltage selector switch (4) just a little, just enough to allow rotation of the clear switch protector.
  • Page 7 INPUTS (5) Two input channels are provided. The line-level input is of the medium impedance balanced type. The jack is a combo female XLR and 1/4” TRS connector. Sensitivity of this input is 0.42 volts for full output, when the MIC/ LINE switch (7) is in the LINE position.
  • Page 8 DO NOT OVER TORQUE HARDWARE. ALWAYS USE SAFETY CHAIN. INSPECT RIGGING ANNUALLY. This Peavey loudspeaker should be suspended overhead only in accordance with the procedures and limita- tions specified in the User’s Manual and possible manual update notices. This system should be suspended with certified rigging hardware by an authorized rigging professional and in compliance with local, state and federal suspension ordinances.
  • Page 9 Bolts used on custom mounting brackets must be certified to be a metric grade 8.8 or better. If there are any questions regarding the proper hardware or practices for safe flying or rigging of the Peavey SP®4P, contact a certified structural engineer, or consult with those local rigging companies who have trained and certified personnel.
  • Page 10 Connecting a Signal to the SP™4P There are a variety of ways to input a signal to the SP®4P. The inputs (5) provides either a balanced mic- or line-level input, allowing the use of a 1/4” TRS (ring-tip-sleeve) type phone plug or a male XLR plug. There is also a 3.5 mm MEDIA IN jack on the Channel 2 input.
  • Page 11 from the mixer, this approach would tend to pick up excess noise. Best practice would be to run a “hot” signal from the mixer down the cable to the SP®4P, and then turn the SP®4P Gain control up only as much as necessary to reach full desired output.
  • Page 12 DSP User Control Menu Operation A two-line, 16-character per line LCD and a rotary push-to-select encoder make up the interface for this prod- uct. The DSP processing control accessible by the user, consists of a 9-band graphic equalizer (GEQ), choice of output Polarity, selection of Bass Enhancement, and signal Delay.

  • Page 15: Troubleshooting

    If the SP®4P has been subjected to direct sunlight or excessive heat, the built-in thermal protection may have been triggered. If so, turn off the SP®4P and let it cool for a sufficient amount of time. If there is still no output, contact your authorized Peavey dealer or the Peavey International Service Center. Hum or Buzz If the SP®4P is producing a hum or buzz, this can be AC outlet related.
  • Page 16 Do not allow ANY fluids to drip inside the SP®4P. Touch-Up To touch up the painted surfaces of the SP®4P, you can use Peavey® Black Touch-Up paint (part # 00052110). Never paint the enclosure or other parts while the unit is plugged in or turned on!
