Overview

The Peavey RX14 is a professional-grade 1.4-inch high-frequency horn driver built around a commercially pure titanium diaphragm and an edge-wound ribbon voice coil on a high-temperature Kapton bobbin. With a sensitivity rating of 104 dB SPL at 1 watt/1 meter and 30% nominal efficiency, the RX14 converts amplifier power into acoustic output with exceptional effectiveness, meaning your system can achieve high sound pressure levels without demanding excessive wattage. The frequency response spans 1.5 kHz to 20 kHz, covering the critical upper-mid and high-frequency range essential for vocal clarity, cymbal shimmer, and overall presence in a live mix.

Power handling is rated at 30W continuous, 60W program, and 120W peak within the 1,000 Hz to 20,000 Hz band, with Peavey recommending a crossover point of 1,800 Hz at 12 dB per octave to protect the driver and ensure clean reproduction. Ferrofluid cooling on the voice coil aids thermal management during sustained high-output use, extending the driver's reliability in demanding touring and installation environments. The standard 1-3/8 inch 18-thread horn coupling provides broad compatibility with professional horn bodies, and the compact dimensions — 3.54 inches in diameter and 2.40 inches deep — allow straightforward integration into existing enclosures. Sold as a pair, the RX14 package is ideal for builders and technicians who need matched drivers for stereo tops, replacements, or new cabinet projects.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Titanium diaphragm delivers clear, detailed high-frequency reproduction across the 1.5 kHz to 20 kHz range
  • Sold as a matched pair, ensuring consistent performance across a stereo or multi-cabinet setup
  • High sensitivity rating of 104 dB SPL at 1 watt/1 meter means less amplifier power is needed for loud output
  • Ferrofluid-cooled voice coil improves thermal handling during prolonged high-power operation
  • Standard 1-3/8 inch 18-thread coupling fits most professional horn bodies

👎 Cons

  • 30W continuous power handling is modest, requiring careful crossover design to avoid overdriving
  • Frequency response starts at 1.5 kHz, so a well-matched mid-range driver and crossover are essential
  • At 8 ohms nominal impedance per driver, wiring two drivers requires attention to total load on the amplifier
  • Compact throat diameter of 0.938 inches limits compatibility to horns designed for that exit size

Frequently Asked Questions

The RX14 uses a commercially pure titanium diaphragm, which provides excellent high-frequency clarity and durability under sustained power.
Peavey recommends a crossover point of 1,800 Hz at 12 dB per octave, with 2,000 Hz at 12 dB per octave as the lowest recommended crossover.
This listing includes a pair of two Peavey RX14 drivers, making it convenient for stereo setups or replacing both drivers in a two-cabinet system.
