channel equalization, complete effects patching capability, and isolated monitor mixing capability allow the
drummer to realize maximum potential from today's sophisticated electronic drum systems.

spectrum of sound from electronic drum systems, Peavey engineers have selected the Peavey 15" Scorpion^
Plus speaker, and the Peavey Model 22A'" compression driver coupled with a CH'"-3 high frequency horn. To
protect the speakers, and to prevent clipping distortion, the ED 300 is oquipped with Peavey patented DDT'"
compression circuitry.

constructed of wood and is covered with the heaviest available 34-ounce Tolex». Ruggedness is enhanced by
