Incredibly Lightweight and Efficient!

Peavey astounds with the IPR 1600 power amplifier, a part of the exciting IPR Series. Somehow, Peavey managed to make the IPR Series super-powerful in terms of wattage, but also incredibly lightweight - in fact, the lightest IPR Series weighs less than 7 lbs.! The IPR 1600 features two channels with independent, 100Hz crossovers. Plus, there's a variable-speed fan housed in its lightweight aluminum chassis. In addition to thermal efficiency and reliability, there's also Peavey's DDT speaker protection circuitry built into the Peavey IPR 1600.

Peavey IPR 1600 Power Amplifier at a Glance:
  • Groundbreaking IPR Series: Lightweight, efficient, reliable
  • Peavey's DDT speaker-protection circuitry suite

Groundbreaking IPR Series: Lightweight, efficient, reliable
The IPR 1600 is a member of Peavey's impressive IPR Series. Peavey went the extra mile designing this exciting line of power amplifiers. For starters, each IPR Series power amp boasts an extremely light weight - the lightest IPR weighs under 7 lbs.! Adding to that, though, Peavey managed to increase output power, reliability, and thermal efficiency, so the IPR 1600 - and all the IPR Series power amps - are ready for the most professional of rigs. Each is designed with a resonant switch-mode power supply as well as a high-speed class D topology, yielding incredibly high audio resolution - and efficiency.

Peavey's DDT speaker-protection circuitry suite
On top of all-out innovation, the Peavey IPR 1600 also offers Peavey's exclusive DDT speaker-protection system, with multi-pint clip sampling as well as DC, Temp, Signal, and Active safeguards - all of which are referenced on the front panel via LED indicators.

Peavey IPR 1600 Power Amplifier Features:
  • Groundbreaking IPR Series power amplifier - lightweight, efficient, reliable
  • Built-in Peavey-exclusive DDT circuitry protects your speakers
  • High-speed class D topology delivers high resolution
  • Variable speed fan housed inside lightweight aluminum chassis

Peavey IPR 1600 Power Amplifier Specifications:

My Sales Engineer knows all his products. I can call and ask him anything and he's on top of it. Some other places just want to sell you something, but I've found Sweetwater to be a helpful, professional company to work with.
