Yorkville YSS1 Studio Subwoofer NEW MK11 MODEL FOR 2007

YORKVILLE YSS1 Details ^top

Demand for additional bottom end support in the studio has led to the introduction of active subwoofers specifically designed for the studio. Today's music demands more bass, especially when synth bass and samples are the norm.

The Yorkville YSS1 Active Studio Subwoofer answers the call. Features like a 150-watt integrated power amplifier in a high quality MDF cabinet, loaded with a single 12-inch high performance speaker make the YSS1 is ideal for any professional studio, project studio, or 5.1-surround mix station.

What a great concept - The Footswitchable Subwoofer Bypass

One ingenious feature of the YSS1 Studio Subwoofer is a bypass footswitch function on the rear panel. This bypass function allows the engineer to remotely take the subwoofer out of the signal path and pass the full range mix through to the near-field monitors using the optional Yorkville AFS-1 footswitch. During the recording process this allows you to quickly slip between a quiet near-field mix for tracking, and a full-on subwoofer reinforced high volume playback to get a feel for the track in the final mix.

This will give anyone in a home or project studio without the space or the budget for separate near-field and fullfield monitor systems the ability to toggle back and forth between a "quiet mix" and a "loud mix" easily and conveniently. This is essential for making music that sound as good in a club or concert hall as it does in your control room.

A frequency response of 35 to 150Hz means the Yorkville YSS1 is capable of reinforcing the bottom end in virtually any mix situation. The power module controls include a variable frequency selectable crossover, tunable from 60 to 150 Hz, a volume control and phase reverse switch to ensure it's working with whatever monitors you choose for the top end of your mix.

Although designed for the studio, the YSS1 may be the ideal subwoofer solution for small clubs, large home theatre systems and for restaurant / bar systems, especially when paired with the YSM1p active studio monitors handling the high end.

A pair of XLR/1/4" inch TRS combi-jack balanced inputs, as well as RCA unbalanced inputs are provided. Internal pre-amp ensures stereo input sources are summed in phase to the integrated mono amplifier. Two transparent XLR balanced stereo outputs (or thru-puts) are provided to pass stereo input signal through to feed full range active near field monitors or additional power amplifier(s) for passive monitor loudspeakers.
