tures further ensure long-term uninterrupted performance (even when
life's little audio accidents occur).
Building on the success of the Yorkville studio monitor line, the active
YSM1p Series 2 uses the same cabinet and similar components as the popular
Yorkville YSM1i. This is comprised of a rugged, shielded 6.5 inch 100-Watt
woofer and a shielded 1 inch silk dome tweeter. The drivers are center aligned vertically and
mounted slightly forward to minimize reflections off the baffle. A precisely tuned 2 inch cylin-
drical port, directly below the woofer, increases bass response and allows the cabinet size
to be kept compact. The YSM1p Series 2 incorporates a bi-amped power module that deliv-
ers 115 watts (85 Watts of power to the woofer, 30 Watts to the tweeter) and generates less
than 0.05% distortion. The YSM1p Series 2 also features a +9dB / -6dB input trim control, a
defeatable limiter, specialized tweeter overpower limiting and woofer over-excursion limiting.
While designing the YSM1i and YSM1p Series 2 a concerted effort was made to instill
the overall sonic characteristics of the popular original YSM-1. Similar in performance to the
YSM1i, the YSM1p Series 2 is capable of reproducing the nuances of a recording or mixing
chain without contributing sonic coloration. It's suitable for home and project-studio record-
ing and even moderate volume sound reinforcement applications. It has the clarity and bass
response that you would expect to hear from a much larger cabinet and reproduces timbres
with near pinpoint accuracy. The sound quality is pristine, the finest details are well defined,
and the harmonics are uncolored. The rock-solid YSM1p Series 2 is constructed of 3/4 inch
MDF, a 3/4 inch thick PVC clad MDF baffle and features ample internal dampening material
ensuring that there are no unwanted resonances.
Unique to active near field monitors in this price range, the YSM1p Series 2 features user
selectable filtering. A series of dipswitches on the back panel allow you to select the overall
tone shape of the cabinet.In order to fine tune the response according to room placement.
• Full Space, for placing monitors in the center of the room (+2dB boost @ 20Hz to 80 Hz).
• ½ space (for placing monitors against a flat wall (0 dB boost or cut)
• ¼ space for placing monitors in corners (-2 dB @ 20 Hz to 80 Hz).
This ensures smooth frequency response, regardless of placement in home studio, writing
room or professional studio. An additional user-selectable high frequency filter (+2 dB boost
@ 10kHz to 20kHz) has been added to allow further tweaking of the monitor to individual
tastes. The input cable can be either XLR or ¼ inch T.R.S. (balanced). On the front of the
YSM1p Series 2 a blue Power LED and a red input Clip LED are featured for quick status
checks from the engineer's chair. The cabinet is finished in an attractive, charcoal gray vinyl
that resists scuffs and is easily cleaned.
