LS800P specifications

The Yorkville Sound LS800P is a powerful and versatile subwoofer that combines advanced technology with outstanding performance. Designed for both portable and installed applications, the LS800P is an ideal choice for live sound, DJ performances, and fixed installations requiring deep, powerful bass reproduction.

One of the main features of the LS800P is its robust 800-watt Class D power amplifier. This efficient amplification system provides ample power to deliver punchy low-end frequencies without the risk of distortion, even at high volumes. With a frequency response extending down to 35 Hz, the subwoofer is capable of producing thunderous bass that can fill venues ranging from small clubs to large auditoriums.

The LS800P is equipped with an 18-inch low-frequency driver, designed to handle high sound pressure levels while maintaining clarity and precision. This driver utilizes a specially designed cone and a reinforced frame, ensuring that it can withstand the rigors of aggressive use while delivering rich, dynamic performance. This subwoofer is also designed with a rear bass reflex port, allowing for improved airflow and enhanced low-frequency output, adding to the overall efficiency.

In terms of connectivity, the LS800P features a versatile input section, including both XLR and 1/4-inch TRS inputs. This flexibility allows easy integration with a variety of audio sources, including mixers, processors, and audio interfaces. Additionally, the XLR loop-through outputs enable the subwoofer to be daisy-chained with other speakers, making it a practical solution for larger sound systems.

The enclosure of the LS800P is constructed from durable plywood, coated with a rugged textured finish that withstands the wear and tear of transportation. The design also incorporates built-in handles, which facilitate easy transport and setup, while its compact form factor allows it to fit into tight spaces.

Another key characteristic of the LS800P is its user-friendly controls. The integrated DSP (Digital Signal Processing) allows for tunable parameters, enabling users to adjust the crossover frequency and EQ settings to suit any environment. This adaptability is crucial for optimizing sound quality based on room acoustics and specific performance requirements.

In summary, the Yorkville Sound LS800P is a well-rounded subwoofer that delivers exceptional power, clarity, and versatility. Its combination of robust amplification, high-quality driver technology, and thoughtful design elements make it a reliable choice for audio professionals and enthusiasts alike, ensuring that low-frequency performance meets the demands of any sound reinforcement situation.
