Peavey XR8600 can't get it to come apart

And why would equipment blow a fuse the minute you turn it on? Well, I would say because it's defective. Bad power supplies, burnt components, shorted diodes and/or transistors or dead IC's. It's repair shop time bud and make sure that shorted speaker wires or defective speakers didn't damage it, as reconnecting a freshly repaired unit to the same wires/speakers could damage the unit twice.

How can you tell if a fuse is blown on a XR 8600 power amp by peavey?

The fuse is probably placed near the power cable entrance in the power amp.
Pick it up from it's placing dock and look for the wire inside. If the wire is whole, the fuze is fine, however, if the wire inside the fuze is missing or burned, the fuze needs to be replaced.

How do i hook a peavey fx24 mixer to a Peavey xr8600 with out going through the 8600's mixer? I am wanting to use the 8600 to power my mains and use another amp to power my monitors. can i do this?

You CAN drive the power amps from the main amp inout jacks BUT the rest of the inout of the 8600 would be dead then. You can connect the L and R from the FX24 to either the media RCA jacks or into the channel9/10 jacks. FOr the latter, use TRS cables. Leave the two selection buttons in the up position.

Trying to find the mute j111 on xr684f

I don't believe there is a mute function on the XR684F unit. There is a mute on the XR8600 but they probably use different boards in it. The mute button for the XR8300 and XR8600 are near the effects selector button and LIKELY is board mounted and would not have a J111 connector. If the electrical function is in the XR684, it MAY just be pads like test points, to only be used during testing and troubleshooting.

Hello, What is the proper way to connect an Ashly XR1000 Crossover and a Pyle Pro PTA1400 power amp to my Peavey XR8600 so I can use 2 subs? The subs are not powered, but do have a passive crossover...

Here is a link to the manual:http://www.peavey.com/assets/literature/manuals/00513220_7.pdf I didn't look at the manual for the crossover but this is probably the way I would do it. Look at page 13 in the manual : Come out of the Main out (31 in the diagram) into the main in of your crossover. Go out of your crossover Hi and Mid out setting back into Power amp In 1 (labelled 32 in the diagram). Hook your speakers that you normally use to the output jacks on the back of the Peavey. Make sure you match the output impedances. Go out of your crossover low output into the Pyle power amp and out of the Pyle into your subs. Make sure the impedance ratings of all your speakers match the output impedances of your amps. You will only be running in Mono mode as that is the signal output of the Peavey mixer. You can run faux stereo by using the Main monitor Out as 1/2 the pair and the Main Out as the other 1/2 to both channels of the crossover but you won't be getting a true stereo pan mode.

Wish to run sm450v2 Mackie powered speakers thru a Peavey XR8600

The Peavey XR8600 is NOT just an amp, but a powered mixer.

To SAFELY use this with your powered speakers, connect those speakers to the MAIN and MONITOR outputs on the front of the unit with 1/4 inch INSTRUMENT rated cables (NOT speaker cables).

To safely leave the power amps in the XR8600 with no output loads, plug GROUNDING plugs into the POWER AMP 1 and 2 input jacks on the front. This will prevent the power amps in the XR8600 from running with no load which COULD damage them.

Make the grounding plugs from 1/4 inch mono plugs by jumpering the centr aand sleeve terminals of the plug.
