there's a ton of info out there too Rodney. Check also posts from Evan Kirkendall and Matt Vivlamore, both own these bad boys. There's some cool photos too that Evan has posted. I can tell you a few things. These subs are visually beautiful. I chose the UCS1B's, with the painted finish. It's a great looking box and they're so new, the paint smell is still on them. The first thing I did when I unboxed them was take a deep sniff! I'm hesitant to ever take them in a smoky bar, but they'll be easily wiped down to clean them as opposed to carpet covered boxes. I have those too and they absorb tobacco odor like a sponge. Not impressive in a non smoking environment. You know also when you look at a quality made box, and I assure you, these look fantastic and feel very solid. Size wise, they're as listed on Yorkvilles website, and weigh in at 118 pounds. Not an overwhelming size at all, but I would not try to manhandle them on my own if they need lifting. They are a very manageable size however. I am going to enlist help loading them in a van, although they have a handle centered in the top rear of the cabinet, and one on each side near the bottom. Makes them easy to handle with two persons if you are lifting them. My son and I can easily do that. Casters are mounted on the back rear, under the cabinet, on the angled portion of the horn and it just takes a little pull to tip them up on the back wheels and you're go. VERY nice feature. You're on your way in or out of a venue with that capability. Very smooth rolling and I would imagine I'll lube the casters at some point with a bit of lubricant. Ball bearings can get dusty you know. I'll probably blast them out with a can of compressed air first every so often. These do not have any type of corner protectors, so I'll be handling with care, or I'll search some very high quality ones to put on them. Maybe. As I mentioned, they look very good as is. I will also consider purchasing some type of pads for them should I want to lay them down and/or stack them on their sides at some events. There is a photo Evan posted of a stack of three in one of his posts. Really great looking setup. Both cabs came in Yorkville labeled boxes (Toronto made) and were wrapped in sealed clear plastic. Opening the plastic gave you that Tim Allen experience, "arrrrghhhhhooooowww yeah"! Each had a tag nylon tied to the front metal grilles with the impressive Yorkville logo and a "2 and 10" year warranty statement. Two years, even if you mess them up, and Yorkville will replace them. (wow, just....wow) The 10 year warranty covers the cabinet. Now I own EAW also and EAW to me, is one of the finest speaker cabinets out there. Rock solid and last a very long time. These are built similar, but the finish is a bit different. I think much more attractive. My opinion mind you, but you'll see if/when you get some. Alot of things can happen to a cabinet in 10 years time, and Yorkville stands by their manufacturing. Properly handled, they should last quite some time. I'm sold. Hopefully, I'll never have to have the warranty honored. On the cabinet back are two speakon inputs, and a speaker selector switch - honestly don't know yet what thats for as there is no manual, but think it may have something to do with the speakon pinout if you're wanting to go from 1+ to 2+, you get the idea. They're a 1000 watt 8 ohm box. Yorkville reps confirmed I could push them at 1200, however, anyone can smoke a driver. I'll be testing them at 1300w with a bridged Peavey GPS2600. Ultimately, I'll have XTI4000s driving them, both for the power, light weight and processing ability. Used, I've seen them at very reasonable prices. Now these cabinets also are horn loaded Rodney. The photos I viewed online did not define the opening, but much like other horns, the mouth is at the lower half of the cabinet. Driver is accessed through a panel on the cabinet back. Metal grills are tough, good looking and have a nice arc to them as opposed to a flat look. I will be ordering covers for them from Cloud Nine tomorrow. Cost for those, shipped to Indy, is a little over $200 for both. Well worth it to protect the investment and keep it looking new and professional, don't you think? I'll also order two more cabinets and covers at a later date. I wanted to buy them earlier than I did but placed my order near the end of January due to them being sold out everywhere (that tell you anything?) and Yorkville informed everyone that they would do a run of the cabs in mid February. They started these on Feb 9 and I had them within 2.5 weeks. Worth the wait although waiting was like being an impatient kid again. I'm always like that with new gear. I'm passionate about sound. I personally feel that these have a very pro look and feel to them, certainly will be impressive to potential clients as well as when I perform and as expected, they should rock thoroughly. I might add that I dealt with Mike Pyle of Audiopyle here on PSW to get them. He was very helpful and the deal went smooth as butter. Kudos Mike. I'll be working with him again soon. SO, I hope I have your mouth watering a bit, but it isn't me, it's the sub for sure. I did alot of research on these, which I typically do before I buy something, and I'm confident this was a very smart purchase which will serve me well for many years. I'll be able to share more about their performance a bit later.
