Peavey SP 2X - Manual (Page 3)

upon having a minimum of 3 dB of
amplifier headroom available.
Harmonic Distortion
Second and third harmonic distortions vs.
frequency are plotted in figures 3 and 4 for
two power levels. Ten percent (10%) of
rated input power and either one percent
(1%) of rated input power or one Watt,
whichever is greater. Distortion is read
from the graph as the difference between
the fundamental signal (frequency
response) and the desired harmonic. As
an example, a distortion curve that is
down 40 dB from the fundamental is
equivalent to 1% distortion.
Mounting
Warning: This unit is not designed for
overhead suspension. SA
™ 1 stand
adpater is included on the bottom for
stand mounting applications.
