They're very tight sounding. Most designs are unported (infinite baffle) and can be driven hard with less likelihood (than ported cabinets) of causing speaker damage from bottoming out the voice coil. Good for a band who does their own sound. > These were classics too > http://www.martin-audio.com/specifications/oldproducts/DataSheet/ModularPAdatasheet.zip These bring back memories. I saw these in a few clubs in the '80's. They sounded pretty good. -Denny

I scavenged two Yorkville 15" drivers as backups for our monitors, when our JBL drivers are out for reconing. They seem to hold up well under hard use. -Denny
