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 heat sink on the back plate can become hot to the touch. Do not block or cover the heat sink from ventilation.
Be sure to keep the microphone away from the front of the speaker after switching the mic input on, and during
level setting of the microphone, or very loud feedback will occur! Damage to the system is likely if this occurs!
DO NOT connect the inputs of the Impulse 100P to the output of a power amplifier; the inputs are meant to be
driven from a line-level strength signal.
DO NOT remove the protective metal grille.
DO NOT use the INPUTS/OUTPUTS jacks as mixers by trying to run more than one signal source at a time into
them. The INPUTS/OUTPUTS jacks (5) are all hard-wired together to allow use of any of the connector types as an
input, and to allow a further send or “daisy-chaining” of the input signal to some other audio device (such as
another Impulse 100P). Attempting to run two different signals directly into the Impulse 100P could damage the
outputs of the source units. Use a mixer to combine two or more signals into a single signal sent to the Impulse
100P input.
WWAARRNNIINNGG::The Impulse 100P is extremely efficient and powerful! This sound system can permanently damage
hearing! Use extreme care setting the overall maximum loudness!
The apparent sound level of the Impulse 100P 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 SPLs in excess of 120 dB at 1 M from the speaker!

CCaauuttiioonn::The suspending or flying of the Impulse 100P must be done by a certified structural engineer.
Important Safety Information for the Mounting Peavey Impulse 100P speaker systems.
CCaauuttiioonn::Before attempting to suspend these speaker models, consult a certified structural engineer. Speaker
can fall from improper suspension, resulting in serious injury and property damage. Other enclosures may not be
suspended below one, nor should additional weight be suspended from one of these units. Use only the correct
mating hardware. All associated rigging is the responsibility of others.
7
Always use all four inserts of a given group as a set; NEVER use just one insert to fly a cabinet! The four insert
groupings are a top group of four and a bottom group of four, some models have a group of four on the rear plane
of the cabinet.
Maximum enclosure angle from vertical hang: 30˚
Always use a suitable safety chain or wire rope, looped through the top handle, and firmly attached to a suitable
structural member as indicated by a certified structural engineer.
The recommended range of torque for the mounting bolt is 3 to 3 1/2 foot/lbs of torque. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! If
an insert spins, it has been damaged, and the cabinet can not be flown!
Never transport the cabinet while mounted on an array bracket, or other mounting bracket.This may unduly stress
the mounting inserts.
WWAARRNNIINNGG!! (note to structural engineer)
For the Impulse®100P the thread insertion depth of the end of the mounting bolt should not be more than 5/16"
past the surface of the cabinet.
If these thread insertion depths are exceeded, then the inserts may be damaged or unseated from the cabinet,
severely compromising the mounting integrity of the cabinet!
The correct mounting bolt diameter and threads per inch are: 1/4" x 20. Use of a grade five bolt is recommended.
GGEETTTTIINNGG AACC PPOOWWEERR TTOO TTHHEE IIMMPPUULLSSEE 110000PP
The Impulse 100P comes with an 8 foot IEC connection AC power cord. It is likely that some sort of extension cord
will be used with this powered speaker system, so make sure that the extension cord is no longer than necessary,
and is of a sufficient current capacity to maintain safety. Extension cords no longer than necessary and of the
largest current capacity available will maximize the power output capability of the Impulse 100P’s internal
amplifiers. For best results, do not power anything else from the extension cord used to power the Impulse 100P,
in order to minimize the voltage drop that all extension cords cause. Running just one extension cord back to the
wall plug for the entire sound system is not the way to maximize sound system performance.
The third wire ground plug on the AC plug should NEVER be removed or broken off; this seriously compromises
safety.

The Impulse 100P has a variety of ways to input a signal to the system.
The balanced line level input(s) allow the use of a 1/4" phone plug, either a standard single-ended (tip-sleeve)
plug, or a balanced RTS (ring-tip-sleeve) type plug OR either a male or female XLR plug. Do not connect cables to
the jacks while the units are on and the volume is turned up!
While the standard single-ended 1/4" phone plug will work well, and the balanced input circuitry will provide
some interference rejection, a balanced cable using either the balanced RTS 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 Impulse 100P end only. Check any input changes
carefully, always turning the volume control down before plugging and unplugging cables.
8
Use of high-quality premium cables is recommended for the Impulse®100P, as these usually have better shielding
and materials, and will provide greater long term reliability. It is usually a good idea to leave some slack at the
input to the Impulse 100P and to also tape the cables down or run them under a cable guard to avoid anyone
tripping over them or pulling the Impulse 100P over when stand mounted.
VVOOLLUUMMEE CCOONNTTRROOLL AADDJJUUSSTTMMEENNTT
The Impulse 100P is equipped with a volume control to facilitate use in many different applications. With the
volume control adjusted fully CW, gain is at maximum and the input sensitivity is 0.5 V RMS for full rated output.
When driving the Impulse 100P from a mixer, it may be advantageous to reduce the input sensitivity by turning
the volume control to the halfway point. The Impulse 100P will now more closely match a typical power amp input
that the mixer operator is used to.
If the mixer board indicates clipping of its output signals, then all of the Impulse 100P power capability is not
being utilized cleanly. Clipping the signal before it gets to the Impulse 100P is not optimal. In that case, reduce
the mixer output level, and turn up the volume control on the Impulse 100P.
The amplifiers in the Impulse 100P are equipped with DDT™, with an LED indicator to show DDT has engaged. If
the sound seems heavily compressed, check this indicator, and if it is indicating more than occasionally, then the
drive level from the mixer (or the volume control on the Impulse 100P) needs to be reduced.
When first turning on the sound system, turn on all upstream electronics first, then the Impulse 100P with its
volume control fully CCW (all the way down). Begin checking levels with the mixer output level controls all the
way down, and bring them up slowly with the Impulse 100P volume control set to the desired setting (1/2 way up
recommended to start).
UUSSEE OOFF MMUULLTTIIPPLLEE IIMMPPUULLSSEE 110000PPss
((oorr ootthheerr IImmppuullssee sseerriieess ppoowweerreedd pprroodduuccttss))
The provision of multiple parallel inputs allows the inputs of the Impulse 100P to be “daisy-chained” from one to
the other. Run the first cable from the mixer to the first Impulse 100P, then hook a cable from one of the first
Impulse 100P’s inputs to the second Impulse 100P’s input. This can be continued for several units, depending on
how long the cables are, and the total capacitance of all the cables. With a low source impedance, such as a
typical mixer output, and typical balanced cables, 2 or 3 Impulse 100Ps can be daisy-chained from one output
using 30' or 40' cables without obvious loss of high frequencies.
The Loop-Thru jacks (7), can also be used to connect one other Impulse 100P or one other Impulse 1000 series
powered unit, and conveniently control volume from just one of the units. Connect a well shielded 1/4" to 1/4"
phone plug patch cord from the Loop Out jack one unit that has the input connected to the signal source, and
then plug this cable into the other unit’s Loop In jack. The volume control of the first unit now controls the volume
for both identically.
Do not connect cables to the jacks while the units are ON and the Volume is turned up!
AAPPPPLLIICCAATTIIOONNSS
The Impulse 100P has a variety of applications such as sound reinforcement, public address, side fill system, or
musical playback. With the optional monitor stand kit, the Impulse 100P makes an excellent stage monitor.
A typical signal source for the line-level inputs (5) of the Impulse 100P would be a sound reinforcement mixing
console (mixer), or the output from a CD player, Minidisc player, or tape deck.

First, make sure the unit has AC power and is turned on. If so, the Power LED (4) should be illuminated. If it is not,
check that the On-Off switch (3) is in the “On” position, check the IEC power cord connection (2), making sure it is
fully engaged and seated. Make sure the AC line cord is plugged into a working AC outlet, and last, check the fuse
(2) {see the REAR PANEL/Fuse section for safety instructions}.
Then, make sure that the inputs of the Impulse®100P are getting a signal by plugging the cable run into the
Impulse 100P’s inputs to some other device capable of determining this (for example, a power amp and speaker).
If there is still no output, then be sure the volume control has been turned up to a reasonable level (1/3 to 1/2
way).
Has the Impulse 100P been in direct sunlight or excessive heat? If so, it may have triggered the thermal
protection. Turn off the unit, and cool as best as the situation allows (DO NOT use liquids for this purpose!)
If there is still no output, it may help to read the owner’s manual completely.
HHuumm oorr BBuuzzzz
This can be AC outlet related. Try plugging the Impulse 100P into a different AC outlet. Sometimes, if a different
circuit (breaker) is used for the mixer and the Impulse 100P, it can cause hum problems.
Check to make sure that shielded cables have been used to get the signal to the Impulse 100P’s inputs. Speaker
cables with 1/4" or XLR plugs will be very prone to hum.
Check to make sure light dimmers are not on the same circuit as the Impulse 100P or the mixer (or any source
devices). If light dimmers are in use, then it may be necessary to turn them full on or fully off to eliminate or
reduce hum to tolerable levels. This is an AC wiring/light dimmer interference problem, and not the fault of the
Impulse 100P.
The third wire ground plug on the AC plug should NEVER be removed or broken off, this seriously compromises
safety.
DDiissttoorrtteedd oorr FFuuzzzzyy SSoouunndd
First, make sure the mixer (or signal source) is not clipping or being overdriven. This can sometimes occur when
the volume control (6) on the Impulse 100P has been set too low (too far CCW), and it takes a lot of signal to drive
the unit to full power.
Make sure the input plugs are fully seated in the input jacks (5) on the rear panel of the Impulse 100P.
Check to see that the proper inputs are being used (5), and not the Loop Thru input (7), for line level signals.
Make sure that a power amp has not been plugged into the input jacks of the Impulse 100P.
If an extension cord is being used to provide the AC power to the unit, is it of sufficient current capacity and not
also being used to supply power to any other units? See “GETTING AC POWER TO THE IMPULSE 100P” for details.
The Impulse 100P has built-in EQ to extend and smooth the natural response of the speakers in the system. Bass
boost and HF EQ have been applied, and the system has a nominally flat response, and should require little, if
any, additional EQ. If excessive additional bass boost or HF boost have been added externally to the Impulse
100P, it may cause premature overload at high SPLs. Try backing off of any external (mixer, rack equalizer) EQ and
see if that clears up any tendency to distort.
10
Finally, realize that even though the Impulse®100P is a very powerful and high output unit, it does ultimately have
limits, and it may need additional powered units (or a subwoofer) to provide enough sound output or coverage. In
this case, try turning the mixer levels down a little to see if that clears things up.
If, after checking all the listed things to check, and anything else you can think of to check safely, and the system
still exhibits problems, carefully note all conditions and check with your Peavey dealer for advice.
CCAARREE aanndd MMAAIINNTTEENNAANNCCEE
Your Impulse 100P is a sturdy and durable product, which 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.
SSuunnlliigghhtt//HHeeaatt
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 shut-down.
Do not store in extremely hot or cold conditions, or extremely high humidity. Always allow unit to come to room
temperature before use.
CClleeaanniinngg
Never clean the Impulse 100P while plugged in or turned on! When the unit has been fully disconnected from AC
power sources, a dry cloth can remove soil or other dirt. Never use strong solvents on the Impulse 100P, as they
could attack the polymer that the cabinet is made from. Do not allow ANY fluids to drip inside the Impulse 100P!
TToouucchh UUpp
If the Impulse 100P cabinet should become scratched or abraded, it can be touched up using a black permanent
marker. First, if the area to be touched up is larger than a short scratch, rub it lightly with an un-soaped plastic
scrub pad. Wipe the scratched or abraded area a little at a time with the black permanent marker, and wipe away
the surplus with a lint-free cloth. For an overall finish enhancement and protective coating, use gloves to apply
either WD-40®or Armour-All®protectant to the surface of the plastic cabinet only. Note that the cabinet will be
slippery after these treatments, rub them down vigorously with a dry lint-free cloth to minimize this.
If the grill should become discolored or show signs of a white coating, you can use a cleaner such as 409®or
Fantastic®to clean this off of the grille. Use a clean cloth that is slightly dampened with the cleaner, and rub it
across the front surface of the grille.

After the first few months of use, and periodically thereafter, check the hardware of the Impulse 100P for
tightness, including the rear panel screws, and the screws that hold the baffle and rear cabinet together. The unit
is subject to a great deal of vibration, and this could cause them to be less than tight with use.

The Peavey Impulse®100P is a powered bi-amplified two-way speaker system engineered to provide the highest
levels of performance in a compact powered loudspeaker. Capable of over 120 dB peak SPLs, this system can
pump out a huge amount of sound. The enclosure utilizes high-impact polypropylene in an injection-molded
plastic trapezoidal form, with a coated perforated metal grille to offer a cosmetically elegant yet durable,
powered speaker system.
This two-way powered system is comprised of a 200 W dynamic peak power amplifier driving a 10" heavy-duty
long-throw woofer with treated cone and dust cap. The 14XT™compression driver is driven by a 70 W peak
dynamic power amplifier, and features a 1.4" titanium diaphragm, and is coupled to an extremely smooth and
well controlled constant directivity horn, with a coverage pattern of 90˚ by 45˚, that is molded integrally into the
enclosure.
Balanced inputs provided to the preamp/EQ electronics are one combo female XLR, and 1/4" RTS phone jack, and
one male XLR, all connected in parallel. The power amplifiers providing the bi-amplification are low-distortion
units providing 150 W RMS into the nominal 8 Ohm load of the woofer, and a 50 W RMS into the nominal 8 ohm
load of the tweeter. They were selected for their reliability and superb musical performance capability. Both
amplifiers feature our patented DDT™compression which virtually eliminates audible power amplifier clipping.
Molded-in handle provides ease of transport, while multiple mounting points (top and bottom) for the Peavey
Versamount™provide for maximum utility.
