Introduction
P O W E R E D L O U D S P E A K E R S Y S T E M
The Yorkville éXcursion 2000 is the ultimate all-inone complete PA system for live sound or mobile DJ
applications. The system includes one 18-inch high
efficiency subwoofer and two specially optimized
satellite speaker enclosures. The éXcursion 2000’s
active crossover network and three amplifiers are
conveniently housed in the subwoofer enclosure. The
Class D and two 3-tier Class A/B amplifiers ensure ultra
quiet operation, low distortion and a high SPL output.
This is not a system that’s been hastily put together; the
éXcursion 2000 was designed as a complete solution.
The system assembles into an integrated package
to make it easier for transportation and storage. The
éXcursion 2000 was designed for the road.
The éXcursion 2000 can be used as a single
system (subwoofer with two satellites) or as a dual
system using two éXcursion 2000 systems. When
the éXcursion 2000 is used in a dual system
configuration, each system behaves as individual
channels. The dual-system configuration allows the
use of the two satellite speakers on each side of the
stage that can be positioned for greater dispersion. The
éXcursion 2000 subwoofer has a pole-mount adapter
built-in to eliminate the necessity of using two speaker
stands. See your Yorkville dealer for information on the
variety of poles and stands available.
1. Input Jacks
i. Left & Right Input Jacks
The input jacks of the éXcursion 2000 are
designed for operation with line-level signals.
The XLR and balanced ¼-inch TRS jacks are
wired in parallel, functionally identical except for
the style of connector.
Note: The required input level for full power
operation, when the Level controls are set to
the center detent position, is approximately +4
dBv (1.2 volts). Increasing this setting allows
the éXcursion 2000 to be driven with sources
that have a low signal level.Connecting signals
to both types of inputs on any one channel
(XLR and ¼-inch) is not recommended.
ii. Aux Bal Subwoofer In Jack
This balanced input allows the subwoofer to be
fed from a separate signal source, other than the
signals being fed to the Left and Right amplifiers.
This feature allows the subwoofer to be mixed
separately from the Left and Right signals.
iii. Mono/Stereo Switch
In Stereo mode, the éXcursion 2000 routes the
two signals from the left and right inputs to the
corresponding satellite enclosures. If an individual
signal is sent to the éXcursion 2000, in either the
left or right channel, enabling the Mono mode will
route the signal to both satellite enclosures. If a
stereo signal is used, both the left and right will
be summed when the Mono mode is selected.
Note: Mono operation (using a single source)
will require setting the applicable level control
at a higher level.
2. Level Controls
i. Left & Right Level Controls
The Left and Right Level controls adjust
the output level of the corresponding satellite
enclosures. Adjustments can be made to alter
the balance of the satellites, compensate for
signal sources that are not the standard +4 dBv
line level or to tweak the SPL levels appropriate
to the application. The Left Level and Right
Level are normally set to the center detent.

Level Control
The Subwoofer
Level control allows
fine-tuning of the
low frequency
output. Adjustments
can be made to
compensate for
signal sources that
are not the standard
+4 dBv level.
3. Clip Indicators
i. Clip Indicator LEDs
The Clip Indicator
LED shows when there is ex-cessive input level on
either the Left or Right Inputs.
ii. Sub Clip Indicator LED
The Sub Clip Indicator LED indicates excessive
levels for signals going to the subwoofer
amplifier. Indications of excessive levels are
monitored either from the signals being sent from
the Left and Right Inputs or from the Aux Bal
Subwoofer In jack.
4. Protection
The éXcursion 2000 uses a sophisticated, multi-
stage limiting system that prevents clipping of the
amplifiers while accommodating a wide range of
input levels. The limiter circuitry protects the entire
system against most instances of overpowering.
Note: Continuous acoustic feedback may cause
damage to the light bulbs (CTL™ horn protection
circuitry) or to the speakers in the satellites.
i. Limit Indicator LED
The Limit Indicator
LED indicates
when the maximum
operating level for
the satellites has
been reached.
When the LED is
illuminated, the
circuitry is actively
limiting the output.
Increasing the
input signal level
or turning up the
Level controls will
not increase the
operating level
beyond the limit
indicated. When the unit is driven into limiting, the
internal Limiter circuit becomes triggered and will
reduce the gain. This will not significantly degrade
the sound quality.
Note: Operating a few dB into limiting will
ensure that the system is operating at its
maximum output. Operating excessively into
limiting will make the system more susceptible
to feedback.
ii. Sub Limit Indicator LED
The Sub Limit Indicator LED illuminates when
the maximum recommended operating-level of
the subwoofer has been reached. Increasing the
input signal level or turning up the Level controls
will not increase the operating level beyond
the limit indicated. When the internal Limiter
circuit becomes active the sound quality will not
significantly be degraded.

The éXcursion 2000 System
The Yorkville éXcursion 2000 system is shipped in two cartons. The main carton contains
the éXcursion 2000 main unit (subwoofer w/amplification) and the Dolly. The hold-down
strap is used to secure the dolly and the sub together for shipping. The second carton
contains the 2 éXcursion 2000 satellites, 4 metal casters, the power cord and these
operating instructions.
Carton 1
• éXcursion 2000 main unit (subwoofer w/amplification)
• Transportation Dolly
• Power Cord
• Operating instructions
Carton 2
• 2 éXcursion 2000 satellite speaker cabinets
• 4 Swivel Casters (YS#8577)
Some assembly required.
The bolts provided to attach the casters on the dolly have been conveniently screwed into the dolly.
This allows you to find the mounting holes and prevents the bolts from being lost in shipping.
When installing Swivel Casters follow the sequence shown in the assembly diagram above. Place
the split lock-washer (YS# 8489) between the bolt (YS# 8936) and the flat washer (YS# 8817).
Following this sequence will assure proper assembly.
