OPERACIîN CON COMPRESIîN SPS

El sistema de compresi—n patentado de Peavey maximiza el rendimiento del amplificador porque impide que la se–al se recorte, incluido al entregar m‡xima potencia. El sistema de compresi—n es activado por un circuito sumamente singular que detecta las condiciones de se–al que podr’an sobrecargar el amplificador y reduce la ganancia de corriente cuando el recorte es inminente. El umbral de compresi—n se encuentra cerca del punto de recorte, de modo que no hay compresi—n activa dentro de la gama din‡mica normal de las se–ales de audio. Al prevenir el recorte, se reduce la posibilidad de que el sistema distorsione y ocurran da–os a los altavoces. Para el uso normal en salas de cine y teatro, se recomienda colocar el conmutador de compresi—n SPS en la posici—n ENABLE (activada).
