The LS608 incorporates efficient quasi-horn loading on its 800-Watt 18?driver to combine the best of both worlds ?smooth, deep, powerful bass and remarkable compactness. Suitable for touring or fixed installations, the cabinet is constructed of 15mm 11-ply Baltic Birch with heavy internal bracing for reduced resonance and better durability, all covered in rugged black carpeting. An optional finish of black ultrathane paint (LS608B) is also available. Hardware includes metal corner protectors and a heavy-gauge metal grille. Amp hook-ups and sub inter-connections are made simple with parallel pairs of 1/4" and Speakon?connectors. Additionally, the Speakons?are regulated by a configuration switch which allows instant reversal of the pinouts for easy single-wire hook-up using optional four-wire Speakon?cables.

Features

The LS608
and LS808
include flush, top-mounted stand adapters so that optional speaker poles may be used to mount full range enclosures above ?avoiding the need for separate tripod stands. The LS608
and LS808
both feature dual, side-mounted, inset carry handles making it easier for two people to carry them. The LS808
, LS1004
and LS1208
have tilt-back wheels and top/rear mounted corner handles for better maneuverability and stacking (wheels don’t fall in the handles!!).

Eite Series Overview

 Yorkville뭩 Eite series loudspeaker systems are the result of years of research, pushing the limits of modern state-of-the-art sound reinforcement technology. Engineered for the serious pro audio user, Eite systems are among the most advanced, most versatile and most efficient high powered portable P.A. boxes available.

Today 뭩 Eites, from the highly efficient two-way E10
to the 1500 watt E2152
have some of the most advanced component protection and crossover technology available today. They have been carefully designed to bring you the latest in Yorkville뭩 advanced loudspeaker engineering.

Ideal for any small PA rental house, installer or sound company, these loudspeakers may replace a number of specific application cabinets in any inventory.

 A modified trapezoidal shape and recessed input jack panel and handles mean these cabinets can function perfectly as a wedge monitor or front-of-house loudspeaker. Unlike some 몀ulti-function?loudspeakers currently in the marketplace, great care has been taken in the design process to ensure that ?ite cabinets will perform without compromising functionality as either a monitor or a front-of-house enclosure. Neither application was considered as an afterthought.

Several of the ?ite loudspeakers are loaded with 80?x 50?rotatable ABS Waveguide horn assemblies (the E10
utilizes a 100?x 25?horn). The ability to rotate the horn assembly ensures that the cabinet can provide optimum high frequency dispersion when the loudspeaker is used in either a vertical, horizontal or arrayed application.

Integrated stand mount adapters and flyware means these enclosures can be utilized in any permanent install or touring application. In addition, the modified cabinet shape means the ?ite series can be installed much closer to vertical surfaces and in some cases, under balconies in tight locations, and can be arrayed in a much tighter less obtrusive cluster.

Of course, the ?ite series has retained the features and high quality sound that have made them so popular including Yorkville’s famous two year (even if you break it!) transferable warranty.*

Advanced technology

• Compact and simple to operate
• Linear, full range frequency response
• Time aligned with low distortion
• High power handling, high efficiency, high SPL
• High efficiency, high excursion, linear response drivers.
• High definition, high slope internal passive crossovers.
• Computer modeled enclosure designs to accommodate greater driver dynamics.
• Unique protection networks capable of reacting equally to power overloads and input distortion levels.
• Dual purpose electronic processors specifically designed to enhance bass response and to act as stereo crossovers when bi-amping with subwoofers.

Advanced Crossover Networks and Protection Schemes

The majority of the ?ite range feature seamless driver interaction through sophisticated high-slope passive networks and ingenious component protection schemes. Rugged jackplates are inset and include a combination of both Speakon?and 1/4" phone jack inputs.

Advanced PTC?Horn Protection makes its debut in the ?ite series.

PTC?is an ingenious current sensing / self resetting breaker that offers some serious advantages over current protection schemes used in many loudspeaker cabinets. This protection scheme, while always present in the signal path, remains inaudible until it becomes necessary for it to react. It kicks in at a point where it effectively reduces output to the horn and protects that diaphragm from damage due to excessive power input or signal distortion. Unlike a breaker it does not require a physical reset to allow signal back to the horn driver, and unlike a bulb or fuse, does not need to be replaced if the circuit is tripped, and the fuse is blown.

 Where PTC?shines is in heavy feedback environments where most horn diaphragm damage occurs. In rare situations even where a microphone might be dropped in a monitor, the sustained 몊queal?can destroy diaphragms in seconds. PTC?will significantly reduce output level to the horn to protect the diaphragm. When the situation has been rectified, and the feedback eliminated the horn will return to full operating level within half a second.

The E2152
features the ATP?(Active-Transistor) protection system, which allows the horn driver to operate at levels significantly above those required for normal operation. The ATP?brickwall element of the protection circuit uses power transistors configured to operate linearly yet have the fast attack required to protect against harmful transients. Along with ATP? the crossover also incorporates air core coils and polypropylene capacitors to guarantee reliable and distortion free operation at extreme levels. The sonic benefit is higher output and greater transparency when operating at high levels.

Eite Series Characteristics

Processor Controlled

Full function stereo analog processors that are configurable for passive or bi-amp operation, as well as live or recorded music applications make sure that your ?ite system is always tuned and ready.

Rugged Driver Mounting System

All ?ite cabinets feature a specially reinforced driver mounting system that makes sure the horn drivers will still be attached to the horns when you get to the show. The ABS or composite horns are pressure fitted to the driver which is bolted to the internal driver support.

Custom Design Horns

Custom ABS plastic and composite horns are specifically designed for each cabinet and manufactured right in our factory for optimum quality control. This insures proper waveguide output for better clarity and lower distortion.
