A Value-packed Powered Mixer for Smaller Shows

The Peavey PVi 6500 powered mixer will help ensure that your performances sound great every time. Your microphones will sound crystal clear thanks to Peavey's award-winning Silencer mic preamps, while Peavey's patented Mid Morph EQ makes it easy to dial-in a great vocal sound fast. And you're less likely to have feedback issues even on small stages, thanks to the PVi 6500's patented FLS Feedback Locating System. Factor in built-in 24-bit digital effects with footswitchable control, and you've got a value-packed powered mixing solution with the Peavey PVi 6500.

Peavey PVi 6500 6-channel Powered Mixer at a Glance:
  • Built-in feedback protection for better performance on smaller stages
  • Footswitchable effects and master mute for more control over your sound
  • Patented Kosmos-C audio enhancement
Built-in feedback protection for better performance on smaller stages

If you're looking at a six-channel powered mixer like the Peavey PVi 6500, chances are you're playing smaller venues and the small stages that come with them. And that would normally guarantee you're going to have feedback issues due to the close proximity of mics and speakers - unless you've got the Feedback Locating System in the PVi 6500. If feedback occurs, the FLS system will light up an LED on the Graphic EQ slider that you need to adjust. Get it dialed in during sound check, and you'll virtually guarantee a feedback-free performance.

Footswitchable effects for more control over your sound

If you're both mixing and performing, you'll appreciate the PVi 6500's footswitch input. Connect a standard momentary footswitch (not included), and you'll be able to defeat the built-in effects and also activate the Master Mute switch. It's an easy way to quickly mute your system for connecting another microphone, swapping out noisy cables, and other situations where you just need to kill all sound momentarily.

Patented Kosmos-C audio enhancement

Peavey equipped the PVi 6500 with their patented Kosmos-C audio enhancement module to make sure your sound is never dull or boring. Peavey explains that Kosmos-C Low control "provides 'natural bass enhancement' by adding harmonically related bass signals that track envelope of the original signal". The High control adds clarity to dull signals. Used together, you can add punch and clarity to any source.

Peavey PVi 6500 6-channel Powered Mixer Features:
  • Powered mixer with 200W (RMS at 4-ohms) per output channel
  • Six-channel design with ultra-clean Silencer microphone preamplifiers
  • Feedback Locating System makes it easy to fight onstage feedback
  • 9-band Graphic EQ helps you tune your system to any room
  • Mid-Morph EQ makes it fast and easy to dial in a great vocal sound
  • Built-in 24-bit effects processing with footswitchable mute
  • Kosmos-C audio enhancement module lets you add punch and clarity to dull signals
  • Bluetooth wireless audio streaming for portable Bluetooth music players
The Peavey PVi 6500 may be the perfect powered mixer for your next gig!

Love this mixer.
I love the peavey mixer it has all the features I need . the correct effects, nice warm sound and easy to use. great price. I've had a lot of mixers powered and unpowered and for my application (very small venues) this is the best. I have to say, working with my sales tech was fun and easy. I like the candy too.

Peavey i6500 400 watt Powered Mixer and Wireless Samson mike
I purchased the Peavey Powered Mixer and the Samson cordless mike system on the Recommendation of Jack Wellington. I received this equipment within a week. Before using the equipment I called Jack Wellington, who walked me through the proper hookup. His Professional guidance and willingness to assist was amazing. Yesterday, August 15, 2021, the Peavey Powered Mixer and the Samson wireless system was put tp task at our local Sportsman's Club for a crowd of over 450 people. The equipment purchased from Sweet Water work extremely well. I had no problems or issues with its operation. I again want to thank, Jack Wellington, for his assistance and Professional guidance! I highly recommend Sweet Water to everyone. Thanks and Best Regards, John "Jack" Holt, Old Chatham, NY

Peavey PVi 6500 6 Channel 400 watt Powered Mixer
Set up was no problem at all. Worked well from the start. Had to play with the effects to zero in on the sounds we wanted but once we did, it sounded GREAT!
Great Little Unit
I DJ allot of wedding and event that require me to be set up in two places at one time. I love this unit because it is perfect for a ceremony when you have a speaking engagement and need soft background music. The feedback destroyer works great. I love the built in MP3 player. I can put all the music I need on a flash drive and pop it in to play background music. Plenty of power to do a small to medium sized event and outside for speaking engagements only!!! It's rated for 400 watts but PA speakers normally are 8ohm and this unit only puts out about 75watts per channel at 8ohms.
