[QUOTE="john lutz, post: 98813, member: 244"] Re: Peavey IPR2 amps? Two popular on line vendors now have them in stock. I actually received one about 6 weeks ago. So far so good. I'm not really up to the kind of review most here would find useful but I can share some observations. It is ridiculously light weight. The case is a little flexy - def use rear rack rails. I did a trial by fire and used it to run a small show - 2 LA325s on one side and 2 4719s on the other. Room was small, about 125 people. Classic rock with e-drums, key, guitars, and bass, plus 3 vox. PLENTY of power. I'm sure I could have destroyed some drivers if not careful. Very efficient - going by how loud my speakers were compared to before with same but powered by CE4000/QSCSRA3622. My work light at the board was not dimming with the beat as I am used to in this room. The IPR2 7500 never even got warm and I have yet to see the DDT light come on. The only nit pics I have are the fan is a touch noisy - mechanical sounding, and the amp as a whole to me sounds distinctly bright, enough that I dialed back some highs. I thought the same thing about the IPR3k though. I'm going to use it to power 4 Fulcrum DX1565s this weekend. If it does that well - I'll be a happy camper. [/QUOTE]
