CARVIN 1584-1584P User manual

SPEAKER CABLES
Use either 1/4” 16 gauge copper wire speaker cable or high-current Twist- Lok™
cables with heavy 4 conductor 12 gauge copper wire. The Carvin PH50 is
adequate for lengths up to 50’ under normal use. You can DAISY-CHAIN up to one
additional speaker per cable by using the OUTPUT connector. Be sure to note the
total impedance to the amp so it is not lower than it’s recommended impedance.
See Typical Loudspeaker Impedance Configurations.
SUGGESTIONS FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE
Raise the enclosure to the ear level of your audience for greater coverage. To
help control feedback, keep the speakers in front of the microphone. Never direct
the microphone towards the speaker. Use a graphic EQ for further feedback
control. For greater coverage, add a second speaker system 20° to 30° off axis.

1584 FREQUENCY RESPONSE
Congratulations on your selection of the 1584
loudspeaker. The 1584
vented, 400 watt 3-way speaker enclosure will exceed the performance
of the competition because of its superior design computer optimized
cabinet design, advanced C1584 crossover, and precisely aligned
speaker components. The 1584 is an outstanding system for a vast
array of applications ranging from clubs to outdoor use.
RECEIVING INSPECTION
INSPECT YOUR SPEAKER FOR ANY DAMAGE which may have occurred during
shipping. If any damage is found, please notify the shipping company & CARVIN.
SAVE THE CARTON & ALL PACKING MATERIALS. In the event you have to re-ship your
unit, always use the original carton and packing material. CARVIN and the shipping
company are not liable for any damage caused by improper packing.
SAVE YOUR INVOICE. It will be required for warranty service if needed in the future.
SHIPMENT SHORTAGE. If you find items missing, they may have been shipped
separately. Please allow several days for the rest of your order to arrive before inquiring.
RECORD THE SERIAL NUMBER on the enclosed warranty card or below on this manual
for your records. Return the warranty card with your name and comments to us.
WARRANTY
Parts and labor are covered for 1 year on manufacturer’s defects. Warranty does not
cover burned out drivers caused by excessive power or distortion, or physical damage
caused by general use, moisture or dust. CAUTION: Distortion from power amps can
destroy drivers much faster than clean power. Contact Carvin’s Customer Service at
800-854-2235 or [email protected]. Customer is responsible for shipping
charges.

See other side for SPS™ Powered Speaker operation
INPUT
For any distance over 25’, use a balanced source. Use the balanced XLR or
1/4” connectors featured on the rear connect plate. You may DAISY-CHAIN as
many speakers as you wish. All connectors are wired in parallel.
12dB PAD
To start the initial hook up, be sure the 12dB pad switch is in the “IN”
position. This will be the least sensitive position for your input source. If your
signal is weak, depress the Pad switch to the “OUT” position, which will raise
the level of your powered speaker.
SOFT LIMITING
Unlike other limiters, the SPS™ incorporates an exclusive optoisolater limiter
system, which does not add distortion when limiting. Soft limiting starts to
occur when you approach the maximum output of your powered speaker
allowing you to get more usable power out of your system without severe
clipping. However, when you hear distortion, hard clipping or cutting out, reduce
the overall level as you have exceeded the system’s capacity.
POWER/PROTECT
When the system has been activated by the power switch, the LED will
indicate GREEN. If the system should go into protect, the LED will indicate
YELLOW which may occur if; a) one of the internal drivers short or b) if the
power amp should require service.
AC POWER
The 1584P is available in either 120V or 240V models. Always use dedicated
circuits for powered speakers. Every Carvin SPS™ powered speaker is
designed to be left on continuously in the case of permanent installations.

SPS™ POWERED SPEAKER FEATURES
Carvin’s SPS™ SMART POWERED SPEAKERS™ are more than just
another “power amp in a cabinet”. They offer advanced electronics to
perfectly control every speaker component. Woofers are power-
managed through active filtering, allowing more low-end punch and
preventing over excursion. Midrange drivers reproduce exceptional
detail without harshness, and the top-end is crystal clear. The exclusive
optoisolator limiter helps keep your peaks under control reducing
distortion. Surprising transparency is delivered by pure, uncolored
power from ultra-fast slew rate power amps.
The heart of every Carvin SPS™ powered speaker is our exclusive
Digital Powered Processing Amplifier (DPPA™), which is fundamentally,
a very sophisticated delta-sigma V/A converter. The amplifier's THD is
less than .1% from 20-20k Hz. The 1584P SPS™ offers 300 watts
direct to the drivers with no cable loss. SPS™ powered speakers have
an incredible 91% efficiency allowing you to run more powered
speakers from the same 15 or 20 amp AC circuit. They run cool
because power is not wasted into the heat sink. This also means you
can expect full output 24 hours continuously - not reduced as with other
systems when they get hot. Of course, mute and protection circuits are
standard to save your gear from any unfriendly stage conditions. The
biggest advantage of Carvin powered speakers is rock-solid reliability
and convenience while only adding 6 lbs over the weight of our
standard enclosures!
SMART POWERED SPEAKERS™ are easy to connect via a 1/4” or
XLR balanced inputs. Daisy-chain as many powered speakers as you
need for additional coverage. A 12 dB gain switch matches every audio
source. A removable AC cord frees the enclosure when transporting.

precautions on the other side.
