Yorkville Sound LS801P Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
2
jacks are connected
in parallel, you can
use them to daisy-
chain other LS801Ps or
full range enclosures.
Note: the Mono
Blend Input is
intended for Line
Level signals only!
For normal
operation, connect the LS801P just like an
ordinary speaker along with the full range
enclosures. Set the Input Level switch to
Speaker if the signal is coming directly from
a power amplifier, ‘powered’ mixer, or other
powered source. If the LS801P is receiving
the signal from a non-powered mixer, a line
level signal processor (as in an equalizer) or
another line-level source, set the input switch
to Line.
The LS801P may be plugged in before or
after the full range enclosure. The LS801P
does not alter the signal to the daisy chained
enclosures and will not draw any power from
the host amplifier/processor driving them.
Also, note that an external crossover is not
necessary when using the LS801P.
As well as accommodating full range
enclosures, the Link jacks allow many LS801Ps
to be connected in a string (parallel). There
is no practical limit to the number of LS801Ps
that may be connected together.
6. Mono Blend
Input Jack
The Mono Blend Input
jack enables you to
connect a secondary
line level signal to
the system without
externally summing
the two signals (e.g.
Left and Right). This
is helpful when you
are adding a single
LS801P to a stereo system. By using this input for
your secondary signal, it is blended internally
with the Link input but isolated to prevent
interaction of those signals.
7. Protection
The LS801P has circuitry to prevent clipping,
over current and over excursion. At high
levels the limiter will limit the gain of the
LS801P and hence if the user attempts to set
the subwoofer level control at a high level,
the resulting setting will be incorrect. The
level control should be set while operating
at low levels (under 10 watts). If the level
control is set too high due to setting it at high
operating levels the input circuit will clip and
the dynamics of the bass will be lost. The Red
Clip indicator will signify when this occurs.
This can happen without audible distortion
since the filters will filter out the distortion.
AT HIGH POWER LEVELS WHEN THE LIMITER IS OPERATING INCREASING THE SUBWOOFER LEVEL CONTROL WILL NOT
INCREASE THE OUTPUT. DO NOT INCREASE SETTING WHILE OPERATING AT HIGH LEVELS.

Note: The LS801P built-in stand mounting adapter can be used with Yorkville SW-Teletube accessory to support our
E160 cabinets. The support tube can be adjusted up to it’s full 5-foot 4-inch extension safely as long as the LS801P
is not inclined mor than 10° (10-degrees).
WARNING: Larger or heavier cabinets shound not be used!
