DPE™118P
Thank you for purchasing the Peavey®DPE™118 powered speaker enclosure. The DPE™118 features an ultra-reliable power section
that provides a total of 1200 watts of peak dynamic power with DDT™compression. The Peavey DPE™ series exemplifies quality and
excellence in performance. The series utilizes high-quality materials and is designed and contracted around the Peavey exclusive Pro
Rider® speaker.
Features
• 18" Pro Rider® woofer with a 4" VC
• 1200 watts peak dynamic power
• Internal line level low-pass/high-pass crossover network
• XLR/one quarter inch combo jack input
• Two high-pass XLR outputs, one full range thru XLR output
• Polarity switch for polarity reversal of subwoofer
• Ground lift for disconnecting cable shield from ground
• Rugged Plywood enclosure with bracing and T-nuts
• Full-coverage heavy-duty perforated steel grill

APPLICATIONS
The Peavey DPE™118 has a variety of applications such as extending the bass performance of smaller full-range speaker systems for
sound reinforcement, public address, side fill system, karaoke or musical playback.
A typical signal source for the line-level inputs of the Peavey DPE™118 would be a sound reinforcement mixing console (mixer) or the
output from a CD player, MP3 player or tape deck. The high-pass filtered signal from the DPE™118 would then be sent to a full-range
powered speaker system, easing the burden of deep bass from this speaker system.
ENGLISH

ONOFF SWITCH
This rocker switch supplies AC power to the DPE™118 when switched to the ON position. The ON position is with
the left side of the switch pushed “in” or nearly flush with the rear panel.
CIRCUIT BREAKER
The unit is AC power line protected from overloads and fault conditions with a 6 amp circuit breaker (domestic) and
with a 3 amp circuit breaker (export). This breaker should not trip unless there is a fault in the amplifier circuitry or
an abnormal operating condition, which causes excessive mains current to flow. If the breaker trips, set the Power
switch (1) to OFF, and after waiting a brief period of time for the breaker to cool, reset the breaker.
If the circuit breaker trips, the center button will pop outward approximately 1/4”, and after a brief cool-down period,
can be reset by pushing upward and inward. Under normal (not tripped) conditions, the center button is relatively
flat.
If the unit continues to trip the breaker, or trips it immediately after being reset, do not keep resetting it, the system
should be taken to a qualified Peavey Service Center for repair.
IEC POWER CORD CONNECTION
This receptacle is for the IEC line cord (supplied) that provides AC power to the unit. It is very important that you
ensure the DPE™118 has the proper AC line voltage supplied. You can find the proper voltage for your DPE™118
printed next to the IEC line (power) cord on the rear panel of the unit.
Please read this guide carefully to ensure your personal safety as well as the safety of your equipment. Never break
off the ground pin on any equipment. It is provided for your safety. If the outlet used does not have a ground pin,
a suitable grounding adapter should be used and the third wire should be grounded properly. To prevent the risk of
shock or fire hazard, always be sure that the mixer and all other associated equipment are properly grounded.

COOLING FAN VENTS
The DPE 118 is equipped with an internal cooling fan. In order to avoid damage, DO NOT block the cooling vents!
POLARITY SWITCH
Provides either 0 degrees or 180 degrees sub woofer polarity
This switch is used on conjunction with the Crossover Frequency Control (9) to provide for the best match
between the Subwoofer output and the satellite speaker output in the crossover region.
LED
Illuminates GREEN when the power switch is on and power is present. It flashes RED when the power amp is
clipping. Occasional flashing is acceptable, but not a constant illumination, or distortion will be excessive. If the
LED flashes RED consistantly, then turn the level down.
LEVEL
Controls the gain or output level of the input signal. It is used to directly set the system output level for a given
input signal.
Normal usage is with the knob set to half-way, this is then equivalent in gain to a typical power amp input.
INPUT
The line-level input is of the medium impedance balanced type. The jack is a combo female XLR and 1/4" TRS
connector.
GROUND LIFT SWITCH
Provided for disconnecting cable shield from chassis ground, to break potential ground loops and reduce hum.

CROSSOVER FREQUENCY CONTROL
Varies the crossover frequency between the Subwoofer and the High Pass Outputs sent to the satellite/s speaker/s (11).
Varies the electrical crossover frequency from 90 Hz to 180 Hz.
CAUTION! SETTING THIS CONTROL TOO LOW MAY ALLOW THE SATELLITE SPEAKER TO BE
OVERLOADED BY DEEP BASS!
Setting the control lower DOES NOT increase the deep bass output of the DPE™118, a middle (straight up) to higher
setting works best for most speakers.
HIGH PASS OUTPUTS
These outputs provide a high-pass filtered signal to be fed to a full-range powered speaker system. Other full-range
powered speakers can be used, and full-range passive speakers can be used in conjunction with a suitable power amp
to drive them.
These outputs are electronically buffered and isolated from the input and from each other, and their level is not
affected by the DPE™118 Level control (8).
THRU FULL RANGE OUTPUT
This output provides a full-range signal to be sent to any other device that requires a full-range signal, such as another
DPE™118, or some other line level audio device. This output is electronically buffered and isolated from the input and
from the other outputs.

CAUTIONS
The unit must be disconnected from the AC power source before any work is done on it.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
The back plate can become hot to he touch. Do not block or cover the fan opening from
ventilation. There must be a minimum of 4" of space behind the heat sink. Do not allow the
airflow to be become blocked by objects such as curtains or drapes, thermal building insulation,
etc. It is recommended that the rear of the DPE™ 118P Sub not be placed in a closed space or a
space that has no fresh, cool airflow.
DO NOT connect the inputs of the DPE™ 118P Sub to the output of a power amplifier. The
inputs are meant to be driven from a line-level signal.
DO NOT remove the protective metal grille.
WARNING!
The DPE™ 118P Sub is very efficient and powerful! This sound system can permanently damage
hearing!
Use extreme care setting the overall maxmium volume! The apparent sound level of the DPE™
118P Sub can be deceiving due to its clear, clean sound output. The lack of distortion or obvious
distress can make the sound level seem much lower than it actually is. This system is capable of
SPL in excess of 130 dB at 1 meter distance from the speaker!
CONNECTING AC POWER TO THE DPE™ 118P SUB
The DPE™ 118P Sub comes with a 6-foot IEC connection AC power cord. If you are using an
extension cord or power strip with this powered speaker, make sure it is of good quality and of
a sufficient current capacity to maintain safety and maximize the power output capability of the
DPE™ 118P Sub . For maximum undistorted output, do not connect any other device to the same
extension cord that the DPE™ 118P Sub is connected to Do not exceed the rated current capacity
of the extension cord with the sum total of all units connected to it.
When first plugging in the AC cord, make sure the power switch is in the Off position, and then
turn it On only once the power cord has been connected. Built-in muting will engage when the
proper sequence of steps is taken.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR PERMANENT INSTALLATION
When installing the DPE™ 118P Sub , AC power runs will be used and a certified electrician
should be consulted to be sure that all AC wiring complies with local codes and regulations. It is
also advisable to use a cable clip properly affixed to the cabinet to relieve strain on the IEC power
cord connected to the amplifier module at (3) so the power cord cannot be pulled out or vibrate
loose.
WARNINGS

USE OF THE DPE™ 118P SUB WITH A SUBWOOFER POLE
The built-in threaded pole mount plate allows use with the Peavey DPE™ 2P and the accessory
pole that is supplied with the DPE™ 118P Sub..
The pole used is 29-3/8” long (not counting the threaded portion) and has a nominal diameter of
1-3/8”.
Always be sure to place the subwoofer used in this manner on a flat, level and stable surface.
WHEN USING A POLE, BE SURE TO FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS:
Check the weight of the speaker to be placed on the pole to make sure that it is less than 75 lbs.
Always place the DPE™ 118P Sub on a flat, level and stable surface.
Never block a doorway or hallway with the placement of a DPE™ 118P Sub.
Route cables so that people will not trip over them or tip the speaker over. Use of duct tape, cable
channels or guards, or other appropriate tie-down/cover-up devices should be carefully considered
and implemented.
When installing or un-installing the speaker on the pole, it is a good practice to have a helper if
possible, as it can be hard to “thread the needle” and mate the stand cup to the stand pole while
holding the DPE 2P speaker system at arm’s length.
When using the DPE™ 118P Sub outdoors with a speaker mounted on the pole, never attach
banners or flags to the pole or the DPE™ 2P speaker system, as strong winds may cause the speaker
to blow over. If there is a possibility of windy conditions, it may be prudent to consider weighting
or locking down the DPE™ 118P Sub to prevent the DPE 2P speaker system from being blown
over. It may be necessary to remove the DPE™ 2P from the pole to prevent it from being blown
over.

CONNECTING A SIGNAL TO THE DPE™ 118P SUB
The input (8) provide either a balanced XLR line-level input, or a 1/4" TRS (ring-tip-sleeve)
type phone plug Unbalanced input is also provided, as the 1/4" input (8) can take a standard
single-ended (tip-sleeve) phone plug.
Do not connect cables to the jacks while the unit is ON with the Level knob turned up!
While a standard single-ended 1/4” phone plug-equipped cable will work well and the balanced
input circuitry of the input (8) will provide some interference rejection, a balanced cable using
either the balanced TRS 1/4” phone plug or the XLR plug will provide superior interference
rejection and performance.
Sometimes, with difficult interference problems, it will be helpful to lift the shield ground on a
balanced cable at the DPE™ 118P Sub end by only using the ground lift switch (9). Check any
input changes carefully, always turning the Level control down before plugging and unplugging
cables or engaging the ground lift switch.
Use of high quality, premium cables is recommended for the DPE™ 118P Sub, as these usually
have better shielding and materials and will provide greater long-term reliability. The best option
is a shielded, balanced XLR cable no longer than necessary to reach the DPE™ 118P Sub. It is
usually a good idea to leave some slack at the input to the DPE™ 118P Sub and also to tape the
cables down or run them under a cable guard to avoid anyone tripping over them or pulling the
DPE 2P over when pole mounted.
LEVEL CONTROL ADJUSTMENT
The DPE™ 118P Sub is equipped with a Level control (7) on the input channel to facilitate use in
many different applications. With the Gain control adjusted fully clockwise, gain is at maximum
and the input sensitivity is 0.100 V RMS for full-rated output. When driving the DPE™ 118P Sub
from a mixer, it may be advantageous to reduce the input sensitivity by turning the DPE™ 118P
Sub Level control to the halfway point. The DPE™ 118P Sub will now more closely match a typical
power amp.
If the mixing board indicates clipping of its output signals, then all of the DPE™ 118P Sub power
capability is not being utilized cleanly. Clipping the signal before it gets to the DPE™ 118P Sub is
not optimal. Reduce the mixer output level and turn up the Level control on the DPE™ 118P Sub..
The amplifier in the DPE™ 118P Sub is equipped with DDT™ and multiple LED indicators to show
that DDT has engaged (front panel behind grille).
If the sound seems heavily compressed, check these indicators; if it is blinking RED more than
occasionally, then the drive level from the mixer (or the Level control/s {7} on the DPE™ 118P Sub
needs to be reduced.
When first turning on the sound system, switch on all upstream electronics first, then the DPE™
118P Sub with its Level control fully counterclockwise (all the way down). Begin checking levels
with the mixer output level controls all the way down, and bring them up slowly with the DPE™
118P Sub Level control set to the desired setting (one-third of the way up is recommended to
start).
It is not good practice to turn the Level control on the DPE™ 118P Sub all the way up and then try
OPERATION

to control level only from the mixer, as this approach would tend to pick up excess noise. The best
practice would be to run a "hot" signal from the mixer down the cable to the DPE™ 118P Sub, and
then turn the Level control up only as much as necessary to reach full desired output. With this
approach, it is necessary to verify the mixer output is not clipping.
DISCONNECTING AC POWER TO THE DPE™ 118P SUB
We recommend that the Power switch (1) be used to turn the unit off first, and then the AC power
cord can be removed. This minimizes stress to the power amplifiers and the transducers from
turn-off transients. The power switch has an arc suppression capacitor to help during turn-off and
tends to make a clean disconnect from the AC power, while the power cord IEC connector can
make intermittent contact before finally becoming fully disconnected, e.g., as when wiggling the
cord.
NO OUTPUT AT ALL
First, make sure the unit has AC power and is turned ON. Make sure the LED on the input of the
power amp module is illuminated (6).
If not, make certain the ON/OFF switch (1) is in the ON position and check the IEC power cord
connection (3) by ensuring it is fully engaged and seated. Make certain the AC line cord is plugged
into a working AC outlet.
Finally, check the circuit breaker (2). (See the Rear Panel: circuit breaker section for safety
instructions.)
Once assured your unit is getting AC power, check that the DPE™ 118P Sub is getting a signal.
Temporarily disconnect the cable running to its inputs and connect it to some other device
capable of reproducing the signal (i.e., a power amp and speaker). If this produces a signal, make
sure that all Level controls (7) being used have been turned up to a satisfactory level (one-third to
halfway).
If the DPE™ 118P Sub has been subjected to direct sunlight or excessive heat, the built-in thermal
protection may have been triggered. If so, turn off the DPE™ 118P Sub and let it cool for a
sufficient amount of time.
If there is still no output, contact your authorized Peavey dealer or the Peavey International
Service Center.
HUM OR BUZZ
If the DPE™ 118P Sub is producing a hum or buzz, the problem could be AC outlet related. Try
plugging the DPE™ 118P Sub into a different AC outlet. If a different circuit (breaker) is used for
the mixer and for the DPE™ 118P Sub, it can sometimes cause hum problems. Unless it is not
practical, it is best to use the same wall outlet (breaker) to supply power to both the mixer and the
powered speaker.
Ensure that shielded cables have been used to route the signal to the DPE™ 118P Sub's inputs. If
speaker cables with 1/4" plugs are used as input cables instead of shielded cables, they will be
prone to hum or buzz.
Hum may be ground loop related. It may be helpful to lift the shield ground on a balanced cable
at the DPE™ 118P Sub end by only, using the ground lift switch (9). Check any input changes
carefully, by first turning down the Level control (7) before plugging and unplugging cables, or
lifting the shield ground at the speaker end by using the Ground Lift switch (9).
Check to make sure light dimmers are not on the same circuit as the DPE™ 118P Sub, the mixer
or any source devices. If light dimmers are used, it may be necessary to turn them full ON or full
OFF to eliminate or reduce hum. This is a typical AC wiring/light dimmer interference problem,
TROUBLESHOOTING

not a design flaw of the DPE™ 118P Sub.
The third wire (ground plug) on the AC plug should NEVER be removed or broken off, as this is a
potential safety hazard.
Your DPE™ 118P Sub is a sturdy and durable product and will provide years of reliable use if
properly cared for. Use common sense and read the safety warnings to avoid hazardous operating
conditions.
The unit must be disconnected from the AC power source before any work is done on it. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
SUNLIGHT/HEAT
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this may cause the unit to overheat and thermally
shut off.
Excessively hot operating conditions can also cause a thermal shutdown.
Do not store in extremely hot or cold conditions or extremely high humidity. Always allow unit to
come to room temperature before use.
CLEANING
Never clean the DPE™ 118P Sub while plugged in or turned ON! When the unit has been fully
disconnected from AC power sources, use a dry cloth to remove soil or other dirt. Never use
strong solvents on the DPE™ 118P Sub, as they could damage the cabinet. Do not allow ANY
fluids to drip inside the DPE™ 118P Sub.
TOUCHUP
To touch up the painted surfaces of the DPE™ 118P Sub, you can use Peavey® Black Touch-Up
paint, part # 00052110. Never paint the enclosure or other parts while the unit is plugged in or
turned on!
CHECK FOR SECURE HARDWARE
After the first few weeks of use and periodically thereafter, check the hardware of the DPE™ 118P
Sub for tightness, including the amplifier rear panel screws. The unit is subject to a great deal of
vibration, and this could cause them to loosen with use.
