I have JBL 4722n's ([email protected]@1m) for LCR and recently bought some Peavey IPR3000DSP's to power them. After connecting the 4722's to the amps and powering the amps on there is quite a loud (can hear clearly from listening position) speaker hiss shhhhh noise coming out the horns. This is with no input connected to the amp and changing the amp gain/volume does not effect it.
Before I exchange these amps for another brand/type of pro amp I'm wondering if this is just an inherent issue with using a high powered pro amp with high sensitivity speakers. Do others running this kind of system have these issues? Any other amp recommendations in the IPR price range? I did a quick test and connected one of the 4722's to my Denon 4520 and there was a slight hiss but it could only be heard by sticking your head pretty much inside the horn.
