Coliseum Mini Series

C170P - Powered Speaker - 100w,

8 inch / 1 inch

The Coliseum Mini Series – specifically designed for fixed installations. Years of experience with enclosure design made it logical for Yorkville to create of a range

of speaker cabinets that have been specifically engi- neered for installations. The knowledge gained while developing the TX, élite, Pulse and Performance enclosures helped yield a series of practical, yet

cost effective enclosures.

The C170P is a compact 100-watt powered loudspeaker with an 8-inch woofer and 1-inch Mylar tweeter. The enclosure is made from dura- ble ABS plastic. Its trapezoidal shape makes the C170P ideal for applications in tight locations and

it is shipped with a metal U-bracket for wall or ceiling mounting. An optional pole mount adapter (C170ADAPT) is also available for placing the C170P on a speaker stand.

Features include both a ¼-inch TRS INPUT jack and a ¼-inch AUX OUT jack for inter-con- necting additional C170Ps. Controls include GAIN, TONE and VOLUME. The ¼-inch TRS LINE input can alternatively be used with a micro- phone and the input sensitivity is switchable between MIC and LINE levels.

Power LED and ON/OFF Switch

The LED illuminates when the C170P is connected to the AC mains and switched on.

INPUT and AUX OUT jacks

The Input and Aux Out jacks are ¼-inch TRS phone jacks and are balanced, however they are compat- ible for use with unbalanced TS ¼-inch plugs as well. Connect your line-level signal source here (mixer, CD/ tape player, laptop etc.).

As noted earlier, the Input can be used alternatively to connect a microphone. If the microphone does not have a ¼-inch plug, you will require an adaptor (or adaptor cable such as our PC-25XPS 25-ft with female XLR to ¼-inch stereo connectors). This turns the C170P into a simple and compact PA system. The Aux Out is wired in paral- lel with the Input which permits connecting two or more C170Ps together (it’s recommended to use balanced ¼- inch TRS cables such as Yorkville’s PC-10ST or PC-20ST (10ft or 20ft TRS to TRS).

Line/Mic Switch

Select Line when connecting a line-level signal source to the Input, or select Mic when connecting a microphone.

Note: Do not connect speaker-level sources such as an amplifier’s output to the INPUT.

GAIN Control

The Gain allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the C170P’s Input preamp separately from the volume. When starting out, set the gain around ‘5’ — then, re-adjust (as needed) to maintain clarity with adequate volume.

Volume Control

The Volume control adjusts the overall loudness of the C170P, depending on the Gain control setting. When start- ing out, set the Volume low (while adjusting the GAIN as above), then increase the Volume to the appropriate setting.

Tone Control

The Tone control adjusts the treble balance. Start out with a center/neutral setting, and then turn clockwise for treble emphasis or counter-clockwise to soften the treble response.
