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!

The second time we used this amp it blew up and took 4 speakers with it.
Value:
If it is not road worthy I don’t want or need it at any price.
Desirability:
I wouldn’t care for one at all after using it. We may have just got a Lemon but from my personal experince I can’t afford to keep replacing amps that go DC and the speakers they take out when they do.
Sound:
lots of power but with no warning it went dc and took out 4 sub cabinets with it.

Feature:
The features are very easy to access and use. There are no hidden features that you have to find to use like the Spider amps.
Quality:
No problems as of yet. Peavey has since published a software update that is available from their website. I work for a Peavey dealer and mine was done by the outside sales rep from Peavey.
Value:
the MAP price for these are a bit pricey. Compared to other hybrid amps,these are a great value.
Desirability:
It can get very loud. You have all the effects you could need. Very easy to operate. More of a natural tone.
Sound:
This amp has the modeling features with the slighty warmer tone of the better tube amps. Im not sure how this all works,but I do know that this amp has lots of power and gets very loud with out breaking up.
Ease of Use:
Super easy
Support:
Any time I call Peavey,those people do all they can to help you out. Always very nice and always helpful.
Overall:
I like these amps. The only draw back I can see is that they are made in China. My amp is well put together and solid. I have to say that I am curious if this amp will stand up to gigging and traveling.

Very good looking amp. It has a lot of cool lights.
Sound:
This is the best amp that you can get for under $500. It sounds really good and has a bunch of different amp models. I highly recommend it.

It looks awsome! The one that my teacher got had some kind of picture of God knows what on the head.

I love the sound, great for rock and metal with a good distortion pedal. My teacher bought it today and called me over to try it out and I loved it. It made me wanna pull a Pete Townshend and crush my guitar. That sound makes you do things you would not normaly do. That’s how f****** awsome it is!
Ease of Use:
You can plug straight in, don’t even need a distortion pedal!
