Parts

I would replace all the power transistors and driver transistors

Call Peavey. I bet they still have the parts

Yes great advise Ken, I will replace all power Transistors and driver Transistors if we can attain good matching sets of power Transistors from Peavey.

On any solid state or digital amp the power Transistors have to match with each other charistically if this amp or any others to perform well and as expected, it is a nightmare to find Transistors that match.

Peavey session 2000 power amp question

Post by Steven Black »

I have another question on the Peavey session 2000 power amp, do the power transistors have to be matched up by frequency or did Peavey just install them into the board without matching them? this power amp is digital, but was just curious if they went ahead and installed them without matching them.

Steven, it would be helpful if you reported the find and fix of this, or have you given up?
