Description
The Peavey PR 12D is a powered, bi-amplified, two-way speaker system engineered to provide very high levels of performance in a
compact powered loudspeaker. The PR 12D is capable of up to 120 dB peak SPL. The enclosure utilizes tough polypropylene in an
injection-molded plastic trapezoidal form, with a coated steel grille to offer an attractive yet-durable powered speaker system.
This two-way powered system is comprised of a 150 W class D power amplifier driving a 12" heavy duty woofer. The RX™14
compression driver is driven by a 50 W class D power amplifier and features a 1.4” titanium diaphragm coupled to an extremely smooth
and well-controlled constant directivity horn (with a coverage pattern of 90˚ by 40˚) that is molded integrally into the enclosure.
A balanced input to the preamp/EQ electronics consists of one combo female XLR and 1/4” TRS phone jack. It is switchable between
mic-level and line-level sensitivity. Two 1/4” phone jacks are provided for link-out / direct-in capability. The link-out is post- level and
pre-crossover. While the direct-in is a direct pre-crossover input.
A woofer servo senses back-EMF from the woofer voice coil that is not a result of the drive signal, and subtracts the error so that the
woofer cone follows the drive waveform precisely.
Constant Loudness (Fletcher-Munson) circuit for accenuating bass and treble at low listening volume levels.
The power amplifiers providing the bi-amplification are low-distortion units providing 150 W continuous RMS into the nominal 8 ohm
load of the woofer, and a 50 W continuous RMS into the nominal 8 ohm load of the tweeter. They were selected for their reliability and
superb musical performance capability. Both amplifiers feature our patented DDT™ compression, which virtually eliminates audible
power amplifier clipping.
A molded-in handle provides ease of transport, while multiple mounting points (top and bottom) for the Peavey Versamount™ allow
maximum utility.

Applications
The Peavey PR®12D has a variety of applications such as sound reinforcement, public address, side fill
system, karaoke or musical playback. With the optional monitor stand kit, the Peavey PR 12D makes an
excellent stage monitor.
A typical signal source for the line-level inputs of the Peavey PR 12D would be a sound reinforcement
mixing console (mixer) or the output from a CD player, iPod player or tape deck. A dynamic microphone
can be connected and used as well.

FuSE
The unit is AC power line fuse protected from overloads and fault conditions with a fast-blow 3.15 Amp
fuse. This fuse is located within the cap of the enclosure. If the fuse fails, THE FUSE MUST BE REPLACED
WITH THE SAME TYPE AND VALUE IN ORDER TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND TO PREVENT
VOIDING THE WARRANTY. If the unit blows a fuse, it should be taken to a qualified service center for repair.

IEC POWER CORD CONNECTION
This receptacle is for the IEC line cord (supplied) that provides AC power to the unit.
It is very important that you ensure the PR 12D has the proper AC line voltage supplied. You can find the proper voltage
for your PR 12D printed next to the IEC line (power) cord on the rear panel of the unit. Please read this guide carefully
to ensure your personal safety as well as the safety of your equipment.
Never break off the ground pin on any equipment. It is provided for your safety. If the outlet used does not have
a ground pin, a suitable grounding adapter should be used and the third wire should be grounded properly. To
prevent the risk of shock or fire hazard, always be sure that the mixer and all other associated equipment are
properly grounded.

PRIMARY INPuT (CHANNEL 1)
The primary input is switchable between line-level and mic-level input. The line-level input is of the
medium impedance balanced type, and when switched to mic-level(6) it is of a typical low-Z mic input
impedance. Jack (5) is a combo female XLR and 1/4" TRS connector.
PAD
Switches the sensitivity of Channel 1 from line-level to mic-level sensitivity. Pushed in, the sensitivity is
set for line-level input signals. When the switch is not pushed in, the sensitivity is increased by 30 dB so
it is suitable for mic-level signals.

Link Out is a 1/4" post-level send intended for the use of linking multiple PR 12D's in a line. In that case, the
Link Out would connect to the 1/4" connections of the MIC/LINE (5) input of the next PR 12D in the line of PR
speakers. All of the PR 12D's in the line should have their respective PADs (6) engaged and Level control (7) set
to mid-position. The first PR can use it's level control to set the volume for all of the PR speakers in the line.

DIRECT IN
Direct In is a 1/4" line input that can be used to drive the PR 12D directly from a mixer, or other line level
source. This input jack has switching contacts that disconnects the PR 12D pre-amp, therefore the level
control on the PR 12D does not affect the volume of the speaker.

Cautions
The unit must be disconnected from the AC power source before any work is done on it. Refer all servicing
to qualified service personnel.
The heat sink on the back plate can become hot to the touch. Do not block or cover the heat sink from
ventilation.
Be sure to keep the microphone away from the front of the speaker after switching the mic sensitivity pad
to the OUT position and while setting the microphone level, or very loud feedback will occur! Damage to
the system is likely if this occurs!
DO NOT connect the inputs of the PR® 12D to the output of a power amplifier. The inputs are meant to be
driven from a line-level strength signal.
DO NOT remove the protective metal grille.
Warning: The PR® 12D is very efficient and powerful! This sound system can permanently damage hearing!
Use extreme care setting the overall maximum loudness!
The apparent sound level of the PR® 12D can be deceiving due to its clear, clean sound output. The lack of
distortion or obvious distress can make the sound level seem much lower than it actually is. This system is
capable of SPL in excess of 120 dB at 1 M from the speaker!
Flying the PR® 12D
Caution: The suspending or flying of the Peavey PR® 12D must be done by a certified structural
engineer.
Important Safety Information for Mounting the Peavey PR® 12D speaker system
Caution: Before attempting to suspend this model of speaker, consult a certified structural engineer.
Speaker can fall due to improper suspension, resulting in serious injury and property damage. Other
enclosures must not be suspended below one, nor should additional weight be suspended from one of
these units. Use only the correct mating hardware. All associated rigging is the responsibility of others.
Always use all four inserts of a given group as a set, NEVER use just one insert to fly a cabinet! The four
insert groupings are a top group of four and a bottom group of four. Some models also have a group of
four on the rear plane of the cabinet.
Maximum enclosure angle from vertical hang: 30˚
Always use a suitable safety chain or wire rope, looped through the top handle, and firmly attached to a
suitable structural member as indicated by a certified structural engineer.
The recommended range of torque for the mounting bolt is 3 to 3-1/2 lb./feet of torque. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN! If an insert spins, it has been damaged and the cabinet cannot be flown!
Never transport the cabinet while mounted on an array bracket or other mounting bracket, as this may
unduly stress the mounting inserts.
WARNING! (note to structural engineer)
For the PR® 12D, the thread insertion depth of the end of the mounting bolt should not be more than 5/16"
past the surface of the cabinet.
If these thread insertion depths are exceeded, then the inserts may be damaged or unseated from the
cabinet, severely compromising the mounting integrity of the cabinet!
The correct mounting bolt diameter and threads per inch are: 1/4" X 20. Use of a grade five-bolt is
recommended.

Connecting AC Power To The PR®12D
The PR 12D comes with an 8-foot IEC connection AC power cord. If you are using an extension cord or power
strip with this powered speaker, make sure it is of good quality and of a sufficient current capacity to maintain
safety and maximize the power output capability of the PR 12D. Do not connect any other device to the same
extension cord that the PR 12D is connected to.
Special Note for Permanent Installation
When installing the PR 12D, AC power runs will be used and a certified electrician should be consulted to
be sure that all AC wiring complies with local codes and regulations. It is also advisable to use a cable clip
properly affixed to the cabinet to strain relief the IEC power cord connected to the amplifier module at (2)
so the power cord cannot be pulled out or vibrate loose.
use of PR 12D with a Subwoofer
The built-in pole adapter allows use with the Peavey SP Subcompact 18X and the accessory pole that it is
designed to use, Peavey part #00326540.
The pole used is 36-3/16" long and has a nominal diameter of 1-3/8".
Connecting a Signal to the PR 12D
There are a variety of ways to input a signal to the PR 12D.
The primary input (5) provides either a balanced mic- or line-level input, allowing the use of a 1/4" phone
plug, either a standard single-ended (tip-sleeve) plug or a balanced TRS (ring-tip-sleeve) type plug OR a
male XLR plug. Then there are two line-level unbalanced 1/4" phone jacks that can be mixed in with the
primary input.
Do not connect cables to the jacks while the unit is ON and the Volume is turned up!
While a standard single-ended 1/4" phone plug-equipped cable will work well and the balanced input
circuitry of the primary input (5) will provide some interference rejection, a balanced cable using either
the balanced TRS 1/4" phone plug or the XLR plug will provide superior interference rejection and
performance. Sometimes, with difficult interference problems, it will be helpful to lift the shield ground
on a balanced cable at the PR 12D end only by using the ground lift switch (4). Check any input changes
carefully, always turning the volume control down before plugging and unplugging cables.
Use of high quality, premium cables is recommended for the PR 12D, as these usually have better
shielding and materials and will provide greater long-term reliability. It is usually a good idea to leave
some slack at the input to the PR 12D and also to tape the cables down or run them under a cable guard to
avoid anyone tripping over them or pulling the PR 12D over when stand mounted.
Volume Control Adjustment
The PR 12D is equipped with a volume control to facilitate use in many different applications. With the
volume control adjusted fully clockwise, gain is at maximum and the input sensitivity is 0.375 V RMS
for full-rated output. When driving the PR 12D from a mixer, it may be advantageous to reduce the input
sensitivity by turning the volume control to the halfway point. The PR 12D will now more closely match a
typical power amp.
If the mixing board indicates clipping of its output signals, then all of the PR 12P power capability is not
being utilized cleanly. Clipping the signal before it gets to the PR 12D is not optimal. Reduce the mixer
output level and turn up the volume control on the PR 12D.
The amplifiers in the PR 12D are equipped with DDT™ and an LED indicator to show that DDT™ has engaged.
If the sound seems heavily compressed, check this indicator; if it is blinking RED more than occasionally,
then the drive level from the mixer (or the volume control on the PR 12D) needs to be reduced.
When first turning on the sound system, switch on all upstream electronics first, then the PR® 12P with
its volume control fully counterclockwise (all the way down). Begin checking levels with the mixer output

level controls all the way down, and bring them up slowly with the PR 12D volume control set to the
desired setting (halfway up recommended to start).
Mic/Line Pad Adjustment
The mic/line pad (6) provides for the increased gain needed for microphone use into the primary input (5).
Use a straightened paperclip or small screwdriver to reach through the hole in the rear panel where the
recessed tab is to set its position. Set the Mic/Line Pad to “in,” or the white tab furthest from the panel,
for line-level signal use and set it “out,” or closest to the panel, for mic-level use. The unit is shipped with
the tab in the line-level position. It is recessed behind the panel so that the gain can not be inadvertently
increased during transport or set-up.
Due to the 30 dB of extra gain that this switch provides, DO NOT leave it in the “out” position for line-level
use! This will result in input-stage clipping of the PR 12D and cause unnecessary distortion.
TROuBLESHOOTING
No Output at All
First, make sure the unit has AC power and is turned ON. Make sure the Power/Clip LED (4) is illuminated
Green. If not, make certain the ON/OFF switch (3) is in the ON position and check the IEC power cord connection
(2) by ensuring it is fully engaged and seated. Make certain the AC line cord is plugged into a working AC outlet.
Finally, check the fuse (1). (See the Rear Panel: Fuse section, for safety instructions.)
Once assured your unit is getting AC power, check that the PR 12D is getting a signal. Temporarily disconnect
the cable running to its inputs and connect it to some other device capable of reproducing the signal (i.e., a
power amp and speaker). If this produces a signal, make sure that all Volume controls being used have been
turned up to a satisfactory level (one-third to halfway).
If the PR 12D has been subjected to direct sunlight or excessive heat, the built-in thermal protection may have
been triggered. The power/clip LED will be illuminated RED if this is the case. If so, turn off the PR 12D and let it
cool for a sufficient amount of time.
If there is still no output, contact your authorized Peavey dealer or the Peavey International Service Center.
Hum or Buzz
If the PR®12D is producing a hum or buzz, this can be AC outlet related. Try plugging the PR 12D into a
different AC outlet. Sometimes, if a different circuit (breaker) is used for the mixer and the PR 12D, it can
cause hum problems.
Ensure that shielded cables have been used to route the signal to the PR 12Ds inputs. If speaker cables with
1/4" plugs are used as input cables instead of shielded cables, they will be prone to hum or buzz.
Hum may be ground loop related. It will be helpful to lift the shield ground on a balanced cable at the PR
12D end only by using the ground lift switch (4). Check any input changes carefully by first turning down the
volume control, plugging and unplugging cables, or lifting the shield ground at the speaker end.
Check to make sure light dimmers are not on the same circuit as the PR 12D, the mixer or any source
devices. If light dimmers are used, then it may be necessary to turn them full ON or full OFF to eliminate or
reduce hum. This is a typical AC wiring/light dimmer interference problem, not a design flaw of the PR 12D.
The third wire (ground plug) on the AC plug should NEVER be removed or broken off.
Distorted or Fuzzy Sound
First, ensure the mixer (signal source) is not clipping or being overdriven. Make sure the volume control/s
(7) and (9) on the PR 12D have not been set too low.
Check that the input plugs are fully seated in the input jacks (5) and (8) on the rear panel of the PR 12D.
Ensure that the proper MIC/LINE PAD setting is being used (6) for line-level signals, or that a power amp
has not been plugged into one of the input jacks of the PR 12D.
9
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
If an extension cord is being used to provide the AC power to the unit, ensure that it is of sufficient current
capacity and that it is not also being used to supply power to any other device.
The PR 12D has built-in EQ to extend and smooth the natural response of the speakers in the system.
Bass boost and HF EQ have been applied and the system has a nominally flat response, so it should
require little, if any, additional EQ. If excessive additional bass boost or HF boost have been added
externally to the PR 12D, it could cause premature overload at high SPL. Reduce the amount of any
external (mixer, rack) EQ and see if that clears up the distortion.
Finally, realize that even though the PR 12D is a powerful and high output unit, it does ultimately have
limits, and it may need additional powered units (or a subwoofer) to provide enough sound output or
coverage. In this case, try turning the mixer levels down a little to see if that clears things up.
If, after checking all the things listed to check and anything else you can think of to check safely, and the
system still exhibits problems, carefully note all conditions and check with your Peavey dealer for advice.
Care and Maintenance
Your PR 12D is a sturdy and durable product and will provide years of reliable use if properly cared for. Use
common sense and read the safety warnings to avoid hazardous operating conditions.
The unit must be disconnected from the AC power source before any work is done on it. Refer all servicing
to qualified service personnel.
Sunlight/Heat
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this may cause the unit to overheat and thermally shut off.
Excessively hot operating conditions can also cause a thermal shutdown.
Do not store in extremely hot or cold conditions or extremely high humidity. Always allow unit to come to
room temperature before use.
Cleaning
Never clean the PR 12D while plugged in or turned ON! When the unit has been fully disconnected from AC
power sources, use a dry cloth to remove soil or other dirt. Never use strong solvents on the PR 12D, as
they could damage the cabinet. Do not allow ANY fluids to drip inside the PR 12D.
Touchup
For an overall finish enhancement and protective coating, use gloves to apply a plastic finish protector,
such as Armor-All® protectant, to the surface of the plastic cabinet only. Note that the cabinet will be
slippery after these treatments; rub them down vigorously with a dry, lint-free cloth to minimize this.
Check for Secure Hardware
After the first few months of use and periodically thereafter, check the hardware of the PR®12D for
tightness, including the rear panel screws and the screws that hold the baffle and rear cabinet together.
The unit is subject to a great deal of vibration, and this could cause them to loosen with use.
