shorted across itself. Remember, just as in the stereo mode, the power LED array (Channel A) should reach 100% indication before the DDT system is activated on both channels.

3.The jumper plug in the transformer accessory socket (12) of channel A island can be replaced with a PL-2 transformer module. This will convert the XLR connector on Island A to balanced operation and provide a balanced input for the bridged CS 1000X.

4.The jumper plug in the crossover accessory socket (14) of the Channel A island can be replaced with a crossover or other special-purpose plug-in module. As per previous discussion, the associated bridge power amp input jacks (17) are now isolated, and signals must be patched to this bridge input to complete the circuit. Obviously, in bridge mode, the CS 1000X is only a one-channel amp. Consequently, to biamp, additional power amplifier channels must be available. Again, a word of caution concerning the power-handling capability of the associated loudspeaker components: Unless the components are part of an array connected in some series/parallel arrangement to distribute the power, biamping with the CS 1000X in bridge mode (1500 watts) should be avoided.

5.You should notice from Diagram 4 that crossover island B is completely isolated whenever bridge mode is selected, and it is normally not used. We leave its use to your imagination....

A Attention Mr. Service Technician:

If the time should ever come for you to service this power amplifier, it is important that you have the proper information on unit disassembly in order to gain access to the heat tube itself and all the associated circuitry. Our Service Department is ready to help you with any additional instructions on the correct service parts.

Warning:

There are no user-serviceable parts or functions inside the amplifier. Disassembly should only be attempted by a qualified Peavey service technician, and only after the amplifier has been disconnected from the mains power source.

Warning:

Voltage levels inside this amplifier could cause severe bodily harm. Always disconnect unit from mains power source and discharge major electrolytic capacitors before attempting to service. Additionally, the mains power source is switched by a mains triac, which is controlled by the front panel rocker switch. Mains power voltage is always present at this triac even with the switch off.

CS 1000X specifications

The Peavey CS 1000X is a professional power amplifier designed to deliver exceptional sound quality and reliability for live performances and installed sound applications. Renowned for its rugged build and innovative technologies, the CS 1000X has become a staple in various settings such as concert venues, clubs, and corporate events.

One of the standout features of the CS 1000X is its power output. It provides 1,000 watts of continuous output at 4 ohms, making it capable of driving large audio systems with ease. This significant power ensures that even the most demanding musical passages can be reproduced accurately without distortion. Its high-efficiency design enables it to deliver exceptional performance while consuming less energy, making it not only powerful but also environmentally friendly.

The amplifier utilizes a patented Peavey Dynamic FET technology, which enhances the overall sound quality by providing a wide frequency response and minimal distortion levels. This technology also contributes to the amplifier's impressive dynamic range, ensuring that both soft and loud sounds are reproduced with clarity and precision.

The CS 1000X features advanced circuit protection systems, including Peavey's exclusive DDT (Dynamic Distortion Termination) clipping protection. This feature prevents distortion and potential damage to connected speakers during peak output, allowing for safe operation under high-demand conditions. Additionally, the amplifier includes a built-in cooling fan that ensures optimal thermal management, prolonging the lifespan of the unit.

In terms of connectivity, the CS 1000X is equipped with a variety of input and output options. These include balanced XLR inputs and both binding post and SpeakON outputs, providing flexibility for different configuration needs. The rear panel also features level controls, allowing users to adjust the output level to suit the requirements of their specific audio setup.

Compact yet powerful, the Peavey CS 1000X is designed with a rugged chassis that can withstand the rigors of transport and installation. This durability, paired with its technical capabilities, makes it an excellent choice for both professional musicians and sound engineers.

In summary, the Peavey CS 1000X power amplifier stands at the forefront of audio technology, combining robust power, advanced protection features, and versatile connectivity options. Its ability to deliver high-quality sound makes it an indispensable tool for any serious audio application.
