PEAVEY LN1263 Column Array 1200W Portable PA System with Bluetooth

Description:
The LN™1263 is a compact, powerful, lightweight and low-profile portable column-array. Utilizing 1200 watts of potential maximum power, the unit contains 12 2.75” custom drivers for the mid-high column and a custom 12” driver for the subwoofer. Completely self-contained, the unit has no visible cables in mono operation. Its clean design is well suited for applications where speakers should be heard and not seen. Coming in at 10lbs lighter than our nearest competitor, the LN1263 is extremely easy to carry: an entire PA system that can be moved by one person in one trip.
The satellite speakers feature rugged aluminum housing and quick attachment design. The subwoofer is built from multi-ply birch, making it both durable and lightweight. Each satellite features a speaker stand and a twist lock speaker cable connection, allowing the satellite to be positioned remotely for applications where stereo configuration or additional coverage is desired.

Modern DSP makes this unit extremely easy to use and operate. Featuring both an onboard LCD screen and remote con- trol via Bluetooth using a custom iOS application for control, the LN1263 is state of the art. In addition to conventional features such as EQ and Effects, the app includes Simple and Professional mode, allowing more advanced users complete control while simplifying features like compression for novice users.
The onboard mixer features 4 combo inputs, each with the option of selecting a guitar input, making this the first column array designed specifically with the acoustic guitar performer in mind. Two additional media channels feature stereo 1/4” inputs and streaming audio Bluetooth in. This unique Bluetooth input can handle a separate device other than the one controlling the array. Features also include seven onboard EQ presets and eight onboard effects, with the ability to save and lock scenes along with an independent sub level control. Perfect for church, convention, DJ or club applications, the LN1263 offers the best-in-class feature-to-value and performance in the industry.
