Building on the reputation of the world-famous Peavey CS 800, which conquered the power amp market in the 1970s, the CS Series is the global standard bearer for workhorse reliability. Over the years, these amps have benefited from some of Peavey's most popular audio innovations, including Peavey's exclusive DDT compression/anti-clipping protection. With its 2RU design and power points up to 4080 watts, this latest evolution of the CS Series is leaner, louder and lighter than ever!

Peavey CS 4080HZ Power Amplifier (4080 Watts) Reviews
10 out of 10
"VirtuRock'n Amp!"
Feature:
Like most amps this sucker is heavy and I have it in it's own case. It has taken rough treatment and works great for compression and clip (as tested when vocalists toss or drop the mics). If you got it cranked make sure it has plenty of ventilation as it will be warm, but the fans work really well and are quite.
Quality:
This thing is built to last. Again, it's heavy but can really pound out some serious sound.
Value:
the amp is pricey. Setting up with a few racks of these (if you have a linear system) would make the pocketbook cry for sure. I only own 1 right now however so it wasn't too bad.
Desirability:
It's not full of fancy stuff but it tells you when the signal is coming in, if it's clipping and when the compression drive is active. Simple stuff really. The design looks hot and professional.
Sound:
Quality is really great. I use this baby on a pair of SP6's and it hammers all night long without any problems. Sounds great no matter if I'm doing karaoke or running sound for a 6 piece band (with full drums mic'd). At 80% outdoors you can hear this thing over 2 miles away.
Ease of Use:
Plug this in and it fades on (in the event you leave the volume cranked) so you get no on thump etc.
Support:
I called Peavey direct before I bought this as I wanted to be sure that this was the right power rating for the big SP6 mains. The sound engineer I talked with was really helpful and knowledgeable. Peavey also has sound user guides on peavey.com so I suggest looking at and reviewing these guides as they cut through all the BS you hear about pertaining to how big to power how much kinda stuff.
Overall:
Despite the price I'm happy with this unit.

"Hefty power at your fingertips."
Feature:
The only drawback is that you can't load it to 2 ohms. The directions are VERY specific about that.
Sound:
Oh.....My......God!!!! This thing is powerful. And clean, clean, clean.
