Peavey

PVs 12 Vented Powered Bass Subwoofer

$699.99

Bring added depth and punch to your sound system with the Peavey® PVs 12 Sub. This compact powered subwoofer pairs a heavy-duty 12-inch woofer with 1,000 watts of peak available power to extend the bass performance of smaller full-range speakers. It’s a versatile choice for live sound reinforcement, DJ sets, karaoke and music playback.

Built-in DSP handles crossover processing, EQ, compression and limiting, while an adjustable 90–180 Hz crossover helps you match the subwoofer to your main speakers. Two high-pass XLR outputs send filtered audio to your powered speakers, easing their deep-bass workload, and a full-range XLR thru output makes it easy to link another subwoofer or line-level device. Switchable Bass Enhance adds extra punch when your music calls for it.

A protective steel grille, sturdy steel handles and rubber feet for upright or side placement make the PVs 12 Sub ready for flexible setups. Top and side threaded pole mounts, plus an included speaker pole, support a compatible satellite speaker within the manual’s mounting limits.
