I have had two of these amps for 10 years now. I use it two pv2600 in a 4-way setup for my band and also my sound company. I must say that any brainless dj can blow an amp or any other piece of equipment. This is a great product at a great price and it can take some serious abuse. I'd recommend this line of amps to anyone on a budget.

I have worked with a variety of brand name amplifiers in my 20+ years a DJ. The PV-1500 is the best one that I've used to date. Right now, I have mounted the PV-1500 and a Crown XLS 602B. They are similar amps, but when I am only using a one amp setup, I much prefer the PV-1500. I just like the better sound it emits. And don't underestimate the value of the DDT feature.

Everything I expected

I do a traveling music show and I have this amp pushing two Peavy PR 15's and two Peavy PR 12s' and so for it has worked without a problem. It could use more outputs so you don't have to "chain" speakers together though, just more cables to string out. I only run it at about 70% power and it has held up under hours of constant music without any type of overload. But for a small operation like mine this amp is all I need. If I go with any more speakers I will buy another of these.

Save your money and buy crown or mackie. I used this Amp from March to November. At the beginning it was working fine with my two PV® 215. Recently, when I was in a party, it just turn off. When I hit the switch bottom on the back, it went back on again. However channel B doesn't work any longer. This amp can not take any abuse at all and the funny thing is was not even at 75% of it limit. I would recommend crown xls 602. I have this one as well and been using for almost 3 years and no problems. Trust me the 602 could take some serious abuse. Save your money....DJ in NYC

This amp is the best! Most of the equipment i own is Peavey equipment, and i must say that this amp is more than worth the money. The DDT protection system really helps to get full volume without distortion.
