élite Processor Specifications

élite Loudspeaker Processors

Every élite enclosure can be used with an optional, dedicated

stereo processor designed to optimize the performance of a

specific cabinet in the line.

The 19-inch rack-mountable processors interface between the

output of the mixer and the input of the power amplifier(s) to

provide both pre-equalization and crossover facilities, plus

enhanced subsonic protection and hum-rejection.

Subwoofer outputs feature user variable 90Hz to 150Hz

crossover frequency controls. Bass frequencies destined for

the full-range enclosure’s woofer, which are more effectively

reproduced by the subwoofer are rolled off. A two or three way

system can be achieved by adding a subwoofer to your

existing élite system.

Additional features include push buttons for live/playback mode,

bi-amp/full range mode and subwoofer in/out. All processors

feature balanced 1/4-inch TRS (XLR optional) inputs and

outputs and can be used with all Yorkville subwoofers.

Question – Will my élite speakers work without a processor?

Answer – élite boxes do sound great on their own, without

much tweaking or external processing. The simple answer is

you don’t

absolutely need a processor, as much as you will

want one after trying the system with and without the processor

Confused? Don’t be.

In reality, all of the élite cabinets will operate just fine without

the processor in the system. There is a tuned passive

crossover network in every élite loudspeaker, and the

component protection is part of that crossover network.

(Unlike the fully processed Yorkville TX systems where that

processor is the only crossover system, and is integral to

protect the components.)

However, there are advantages to having that élite

processor around

First of all, the élite processors are designed for specific cabinets

and must be used in the right combination. If you’re using the

E215 then there is an EP215 processor

, likewise the E2152

should have an EP2152 processor. The reason is simple. Our

processors provide a proper overall pre-EQ’d tone and are

tweaked for their specific cabinets.

Each processor takes into account the individual cabinet’s

design characteristics. They know where to boost and to cut

frequencies for optimum, even and most efficient cabinet

response. In the cases of the smaller cabinets like the E10,

the processor rolls off extremely low frequencies the cabinet

isn’t designed to reproduce, thus making the system operate

more efficiently.

When using élite cabinets with subwoofers, the processor

becomes the active crossover as well. Again, it optimizes the

frequency response of the ‘top’ cabinet taking into account

that there is a subwoofer present, and properly crosses over

and phase aligns the system. Simply throw the switch on the

processor from one-way to two-way mode and the crossover

kicks in, the top box (E10, E12 or whatever enclosure you

choose) becomes smooth mids and highs only, and you have

a balanced output to feed the low frequency program to a

subwoofer system.

**User Tip – When running a monitor system on stage with

any élite monitor enclosures, use the processor in two-way

mode. This will create a dramatic bass roll off in the cabinet

and in some cases, more mid presence. In a monitor system,

excess bottom end clutters up the stage sound and the

increased presence makes the monitor mix much clearer and

far more intelligible.
