Description
The Peavey PV 118D is a Class D powered low frequency speaker system engineered to provide very high levels of
performance in a compact loudspeaker. The PV 118D is capable of up to 119 dB peak SPL. The enclosure is made from 3/4"
MDF, with a powder coated steel grille to offer an attractive yet durable powered speaker system.
A balanced input to the preamp/EQ electronics consists of one female XLR jack. A woofer servo senses back-EMF from the
woofer voice coil that is not a result of the drive signal, and subtracts the error so that the woofer cone follows the drive
waveform precisely. Two Class D power amplifier provides 300 watts peak available power each into the dual voice-coil
woofer yielding 600 watts total into the nominal 8 ohm load of each voice coil of the woofer. Both amplifiers feature our
DDT power amplifier compression, which virtually eliminates audible power amplifier clipping.
