PVH 212?

Sorry, dimensions says “packed”. Has the weight “unpacked”.

When you go the Peavey Web site you just click to view the Spec Sheet. Most of the PVH's are the exact same size - I guess for product and cost efficiencies. I have the 1516 and love it. Totally competes with my Subway 112/115 stack at literally 25% of the cost and pretty much the same combined weight.

Anyhow....here's your specs:

PVH™ 212 -- Black carpet covering; Powdercoated black metal grille; High frequency horn tweeter with rotary L-pad attenuator; Two heavy duty 12” speakers; Ported cabinet; Metal corners; Heavy duty hardware; Two combi input jacks; Spring loaded handles; Rugged 15mm plywood construction; 900 watts program power handling. Impedence: 8Ω
Power Handling (cont., prog., peak): 450W, 900W, 1800W
Sensitivity (1W/1m): 97dB
Frequency Response: 42Hz - 16KHz Crossover Freq.: 2.8KHz
Weight: 76.5 lb / 34.7 Kg
Dimensions: W = 22.25” (56.5 cm), H = 29.75” (75.5 cm), D = 17.63” (44.7 cm)

Thank you! Curious about the 1516 as it’s the same price as the 212. Have you had any issues with pushing the 8” speakers too hard?

No issues - I also have a MiniMega and I have hit the PVH 1516 with pretty much everything it has. It doesn't even flinch. Here's a couple of reviews I wrote when I first picked it up...
