Yorkville EX1 Portable Sound System 950Watts

YORKVILLE EX1 Details ^top

The simple concept behind the élite éXcursion1000 was to create a powerful, effective and highly mobile active stereo live PA / Club System centered around one 15-inch active subwoofer and two active 8-inch / 1-inch bi-amplified satellite loudspeakers.

The core of the élite éXcursion1000 is the single 15-inch loaded subwoofer that houses the input section, electronic crossover networks and five integrated power amplifier modules that power the entire éXcursion1000 system.

The éXcursion1000 system delivers over 950 watts total power. 650-watts is dedicated to the subwoofer, and 150-watts to each of the two satellite loudspeakers. To ensure system performance and clarity, the satellite speakers are bi-amplified (125-watts to each 8-inch driver and 25-watts to each 1-inch horn). The satellite speakers are connected to the subwoofer with two 8m Speakon™ four connector speaker cables that are included with the package. The system is powered by one AC line cord ensuring quick and convenient set-up and teardown, with a minimum of cabling and connectivity around the stage. True to Yorkville loudspeaker design, all of the cabinets in the élite éXcursion1000 are made with plywood, not MDF or composites.

Click To View High Resolution Image The electronic crossover network ensures an acoustically perfect transition between the subwoofer and the mid / high satellite speakers. Opto-limiter circuitry in the crossover network provides an unobtrusive and ''musical sounding'' compression that not only protects the speaker components, but also ensures balanced and clear reproduction from the satellite cabinets. The entire system can be connected to any mono or stereo mixer source through either XLR or 1/4-inch TRS balanced inputs. To ensure trouble free movement from Point A to Point B, the éXcursion1000 comes shipped with a detachable swivel caster dolly and Velcro™ tie down strap for the satellite cabinets. Unlike competitive system solutions, the caster kit from the élite éXcursion1000 does not remain attached to the subwoofer when the system is in use, eliminating caster buzz and rattle during live performances.

A complete, self contained and powered system with passive and active crossover networks, equalization, and separate stereo and subwoofer level control all built in, making the éXcursion Series the ultimate in compact live/DJ systems. A complete PA system that truly is "Plug and Play"

élite éXcursion Series Overview
élite éXcursion2000

The élite éXcursion Series is the ideal marriage of Yorkville Sound’s loudspeaker design experience, electronics innovation and power amplifier engineering. We have taken our 40 plus years as an industry innovator and pushed the boundaries yet again to create the ultimate "all-in-one" complete and convenient PA system solution for live sound or mobile DJ applications.

The simple concept behind the élite éXcursion Series was to create a powerful, effective and mobile active stereo club system PA centered around one subwoofer and two satellite loudspeakers. Powering all 3 cabinets is a breeze with three separate power amplifiers being incorporated into the electronics of the active subwoofer. A complete, self contained and powered system with passive and active crossover networks, equalization, and separate stereo and subwoofer level control all built in, makes the élite éXcursion Series the ultimate in compact live/DJ systems. A complete PA system that truly is "Plug and Play"

All of the élite éXcursion Series products are built to Yorkville’s exacting standards and include our famous two year (even if you break it!) transferable warranty.* The latest in amplifier technology is incorporated in all éXcursion systems ensuring ultra quiet, highly efficient, high output, low distortion, and light weight from a combination of Class D and 3-tier Class A/B amplifier topologies.

Self-Contained Complete Portable SystemXLR and ¼-inch TRS balanced inputs ensure the élite éXcursion Systems can be connected to any mixer source. Great care was taken during the initial circuit design to ensure good common mode rejection (50 / 60-cycle hum rejection) at the input so this PA system is as free from extraneous noise as possible while in use. Separate gain controls for subwoofer and for the right and left satellite cabinets are easily accessible from the back panel. Warning lights show the user when the system is limiting or clipping at the input. True to Yorkville loudspeaker design, all of the cabinets in the élite éXcursion Series are made with plywood, not MDF or composites.

* Warranty valid in U.S.A. and Canada only
