GROUND LIFT SWITCH (4)

Switches the XLR (7,8) PIN 1 (shield) from direct contact with ground in the event that hum occurs with the input cables connected. ALWAYS TURN THE GAIN (13 AND 14) DOWN ALL THE WAY BEFORE OPERATING THIS SWITCH TO AVOID LOUD POPS OR BUZZES! Turn the gain back up slowly and cautiously to determine if an improvement in the hum or buzz has been made!

INPUT 1 (A)

Input 1 is switchable between line-level gain and mic-level gain. The line-level input is medium impedance balanced. The jack (7) on the input 1 panel is a combo female XLR and 1/4” TRS connector. Input 1 also has a

3-conductor balanced Euro-style jack connector (9) wired in parallel with the above listed inputs. The signal to input 1 is mixed with the signal from input 2 and fed to the internal crossover and signal processing.

Known for its high performance and reliability, the 12 D is aimed at musicians, DJs, and sound engineers who require quality sound and durability in a portable package.

The combination of these components results in a full-range sound that is both vibrant and articulate.

Incorporating advanced technologies, the Peavey 12 D features a constant directivity horn that offers controlled dispersion of sound. This ensures consistent coverage across the audience area, minimizing dead spots and providing an even listening experience. Additionally, the speaker is equipped with Peavey's proprietary EQ settings, allowing users to tailor the sound output to their specific environment or preferences.

Portability and ease of use are also central to the design of the Peavey 12 D. Weighing in at a manageable size and featuring durable enclosures, the speaker is easy to transport and set up.
