Peavey Electronics is proud to announce the introduction of a new line of exciting professional power amplifiers. The new CS-G series is the result of years of research & development into a smaller, lighter, compact and more powerful amplifier. These units operate much more efficiently than contemporary power amp designs, requiring less current from the mains power plug, producing far less heating. This new technology allows the CS@ 3000G to reliably produce more than 3000 W RMS into 4 ohms (Bridge Mode) in a three-rack-space unit, at extremely low distortion levels.

These new designs use a new class of operation called “Class BG”. This class uses two levels of power supply “rails,” but switches between the rails faster and at lower distortion levels than does a typical Class G design. This unit then combines higher efficiency and lower distortion, and together with our all new Nonsaturating Series Single Emitter Resistor topology (NSSER), provides awesome performance levels with full power 20 kHz distortion below 0.04%, and with slew rates greater than 40 V&Sec. This technology is called “Dynamic Logic” and is covered by a U.S. Patent (pending).

The following is the new CS 3000G specs:

1000 W RMS into 4 ohms; 1500 W RMS into 2 ohms, per channel 2000 W RMS into 8 ohms; 3000 W RMS into 4 ohms (Bridge mode) Slew Rate: 40 V/microsecond, Sstereo mode, each channel Frequency Response: 20 Hz to 20 kHz, +0.2 dB, at rated power Total Harmonic Distortion: Less than 0.04%, at rated power

Hum and Noise: 100 dB below rated power, unweighted

The unit is attractively packaged in a rugged, rack-mountable configuration requiring only three rack spaces. Naturally, it has Peavey’s patented DDT Compression Circuitry, and has a very flexible back panel. The design uses dual, two-speed fan cooling to provide all the cooling necessary for the two ohm load conditions.
