Post by: gpw on February 09, 2010, 06:05:13 PM
 Guys I inherited the boards and PT from an old Peavey 300Watt amp  (combo with 15" spkr. , it was working)   It's marked 705-18720  Peavey electronics... Its HUGE and very heavy , and may be just the ticket for building a new SS amp .. if I knew something about it ...Any of you guys have any experience with one of these ... Thanks !!!

The 705-18720 was used in the 400BH power amp as used in the COmbo300 Bass AMp.

If the 400BH board is intact, it is a sturdy and reliable power amp.   I'd use it, and build a custom preamp if I were into a project.

The schematic is too large a file for the forum limits.  We have it posted over at Music-electronics-forum.com.  DO a search there.  or contact customer service at Peavey.
