SL Studio Live Series Mixing Consoles
The S/L Studio/Live Series is one of the biggest upgrades in the 2001 catalog. It moves Carvin from compact live mixers and Concert Series boards into full 8-bus console territory. The line includes the S/L24, S/L40, and S/L56, each designed for live sound and recording use. The catalog emphasizes inline recording capability, 8 aux sends per channel, meter bridge visibility, rugged all-steel construction, and a dedicated rackmount SLP5600 power supply. This is a major difference from the 1999 catalog, where the Concert Series mixers were strong live boards but did not yet represent this full-scale 8-bus console format.
TCS Touring Concert Series Loudspeakers
The TCS Touring Concert Systems are new for 2001 and represent Carvin’s most serious large-format loudspeaker family in the catalog. These are not standard club boxes; they are flyable, array-capable touring enclosures built with 13-ply Baltic Birch, 26-ply baffles, DuraTex finish, heavy steel grilles, and Quick-Link fly hardware. The TCS line also connects directly to the new DCM4000A and S/L console systems, making it the foundation of the largest sound systems in the book.
DCM4000A Power Amplifier
The DCM4000A is a major 2001 amplifier addition. The 1999 catalog already had the DCM600, DCM1000, DCM1500, and DCM2000, but the 2001 book adds a four-channel 4000-watt model designed specifically for large systems and TCS loudspeakers. Carvin describes it as four independent 1000-watt amps in one 3-space chassis, powered by two independent toroid power supplies. Its bridgeable two-amp format also lets it operate as two 2000-watt amplifiers.
PA Series Powered Mixers
The PA Series mixers are a major 2001 refresh of Carvin’s portable sound system category. Compared with the 1999 CX420, CX630, CX872, and CX1272 mixers, the 2001 PA Series uses new naming and broader system tiers. The line starts with the compact PA410 and PA620, then expands to the high-powered PA800 and PA1200 1000-watt three-amp mixers, plus the PA1200R non-powered rack version. These mixers anchor many of the packaged systems with 805, 822, 832, 1584, and 1562 loudspeakers.
S400 Stagemate Battery Powered PA System
The StageMate is one of the most distinctive additions in the 2001 catalog because it gives Carvin a battery-powered portable sound system. The S400 is a 4-channel, 100-watt system with an internal speaker, and the S400D adds built-in digital effects. It can run from its internal 12V sealed battery, 120V AC, or external 12V DC power, making it useful for acoustic performers, vocalists, sporting events, weddings, churches, company functions, outdoor announcements, and small gatherings.
SRS6.5 Studio Reference Monitor
The SRS6.5 Studio Reference Monitor is new for 2001 and gives the catalog a dedicated near-field studio monitor category. It is positioned for home, project, and professional studios, with a 6.5-inch woofer, shielded cabinet, 125-watt power handling, and a flat/contour switch that lets users compare mixdown accuracy against a more hi-fi playback contour.
FH1801 Folded Horn Subwoofer
The FH1801 adds a folded-horn subwoofer design to the 2001 catalog’s subwoofer lineup. Unlike the SW1801 front-loaded subwoofer and SW1802 dual-18 cabinet, the FH1801 uses a folded horn enclosure to amplify longer bass waves and reduce unwanted mids and highs. It is aimed at DJs, bands, and installations that need strong physical low-end impact from a single 18-inch cabinet.
SX Series Solid State Guitar Amplifiers
The SX Series remains Carvin’s solid-state guitar amplifier offering in the 2001 catalog, sitting beside the Legacy tube amp and MTS tube line. The SX models provide practical, high-feature guitar amplification with effects, channel switching, and solid-state reliability. In the 2001 context, the SX Series helps round out the amplifier section by giving players a more affordable and flexible alternative to the all-tube Legacy and MTS models.
