Peavey Impulse 1015P operation manual Care and Maintenance

Distorted or Fuzzy Sound

First, make sure the mixer (or signal source) is not clipping or being overdriven. This can sometimes occur when the Volume control (6) on the Impulse 1015P has been set too low (too far counterclockwise), and it takes a lot of signal to drive the unit to full power.

Make sure the input plugs are fully seated in the input jacks (5) on the rear panel of the Impulse 1015P.

Check to see that the proper inputs are being used (5) for line-level signals, not the mic input (8). Make sure that a power amp has not been plugged into the input jacks of the Impulse 1015P.

If an extension cord is being used to provide AC power to the unit, is it of sufficient current capacity and not also being used to supply power to any other units? See “GETTING AC POWER TO THE IMPULSE 1015P” for details.

The Impulse 1015P has built-in EQ to extend and smooth the natural response of the speakers in the system. Bass boost and HF EQ have been applied, and the system has a nominally flat response, so it should require little, if any, additional EQ. If excessive additional bass boost or HF boost have been added externally to the Impulse 1015P, it may cause premature overload at high SPLs. Try backing off of any external EQ (mixer, rack equalizer) and see if that clears up any tendency to distort. If the Contour switch (9) has been engaged, defeat it by making sure it is in the OFF position.

Even though the Impulse 1015P is an extremely powerful and high output unit, it does ultimately have limits, and it may require additional powered units (or a sub-woofer) to provide enough sound output or coverage. In this case, try turning the mixer levels down a little to see if that clears things up.

After checking everything listed to check in this manual and anything else you can think of to check safely, if the system still exhibits problems, carefully note all conditions and check with your Peavey dealer for advice.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Impulse 1015P is a sturdy, durable product that will provide years of reliable use if cared for properly. Use common sense and read the safety warnings to avoid hazardous operating conditions. Tightening the bolts on the rear panel may require that the front speaker grille be removed, and then the woofer, and reaching in from the front to restrain the nuts from spinning.

The unit must be disconnected from the AC power source before any work is done on it. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Sunlight/Heat

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this may cause the unit to overheat and thermally shut off. Excessively hot operating conditions can also cause a thermal shut down.

Do not store in extremely hot or cold conditions or extremely high humidity. Always allow unit to come to room temperature before use.
