The massively-braced, two-way E2204 proves that more drivers do not necessarily make a cabinet better! The design of this trapezoidal cabinet incorporates a 2" B&C HF driver which has exceptional upper frequency response yet provides highly efficient mid range output as well. The driver fires through an ultra-modern, true conical radial horn, back-set to optimize time alignment with the low frequency section. The Yorkville designed and manufactured 90x40 degree horn is composed of a rigid, non-resonant high-tech composite which virtually eliminates high frequency coloration. Low frequency is provided by two 15" B&C drivers - delivering gut-shaking, dependable bass output. The electronics have been updated to provide a firm acoustic bond between low and high frequency through the use of phase correction filters.
The first Yorkville cabinet to feature ATP™ technology is the E2204. Continuing the quest for sonic perfection, Yorkville introduces Active Transistor Protection. ATP™ is a newly developed protection system, which allows the horn compression driver to operate at levels significantly above those required for normal operation. The ATP™ brickwall element of the protection circuit uses power transistors configured to operate linearly yet have the fast attack required to protect against harmful transients. Along with ATP™, the new crossover also incorporates air core coils and polypropelene capacitors to guarantee reliable and distortion free operation at extreme levels. The sonic benefit is higher output and greater transparency when operating at high levels.
The E2204 is perfect for applications in medium to large sized venues, especially when used with an EP2204 processor and optional élite subwoofers for extended low frequency.
