I tried searching for reviews and have not found any, seems like it would be a nice amp.

Looks like Peavey is really starting to step up.

That head has been on the Peavey website for over a year but nobody I know has played, heard one or even seen one in person. They look cool though. Peavey was supposed to build a mono 800 watt version as well as a 1200 watt version of that head but they dropped the idea because they would be too expensive.

Peavey is stepping up in a big way with that head and the VB-2 and VB-3 thats in the works. I'm waiting on the VB-3 .

The Tour Series heads are decent too. I have played around with those at GC and have liked them better every time I mess around with one.

The MSRP ($1899) is not that far off from other amps in it's power range, I wonder if they ever made any

 

[srxplayer]

No I don't think they ever built any of the 800 or 1200 watt versions for sale.

I believe they decided to only go ahead with the Pro 2000. I think they decided they could sell a 2000 watt amp at that price point but not the lower power versions.

Looks like they're borrowing some of that Crest technology.

Still awaiting reply from Peavey CS on if this amp is even available

 

[jarrod cunningham]

Here is the response from Peavey:


Hello,
Thanks for your interest in the PRO 2000 amplifier. None of these have
shipped yet. I expect they will be shipping in April. Thanks,
Aubrey

Vaporware.

That head looks pretty cool, Vinny. I don't know why so many people scough at them. It's hard to argue with Peavey's reliability.

i have one..... it's built in the usa. i'll take a pic thursday. it's at my rehearshal space. it's sounds really good. i've had aguilar, ashdown and ampeg. it's on the same build quality as those. it's rediculously loud, clean and versaitle. the only thing that i don't like is the d.i. is pre eq only. a cool little feature is, there's a l.e.d. in the back when you turn on the amp so you can see the back. i have it in a 2 space soft rack bag. i really think it weighs more than the stated 25lb's. i'll have to weigh it. i rehearse 3 nights a week and gig 2 a week with it. it's held up well so far.

 

[srxplayer]

I would be intersted in hearing more about your experience with that head...

 

[megadethjohn]

Damn...if that sounds as good as my Pro 500 and delivers 2000 watts into 4 ohms I may have to start working on my shoplifting skills.

 

[PBFACTOR]

took some pics, where can i host them to put them up here. they're to big to use the built in picture thing. they'd be too small to see well also.

Upload them to Photobucket.

 

[PBFACTOR]

thanks, ryan. here's a pic of my practice rig. the pro2000 has been pretty good so far.
