Coliseum Mini Series

CX80P - Powered Speaker - 100w,

8 inch / 1 inch

The Coliseum Mini Series – specifically designed for

fixed installations. Years of experience with enclosure

design made it logical for Yorkville to create of a range

of speaker cabinets that have been specifically engi-

neered for installations. The knowledge gained while

developing the TX, élite, Pulse and Performance

enclosures helped yield a series of practical, yet

cost effective enclosures.

The CX80P is a compact 100-watt powered

loudspeaker with an 8-inch woofer and 1-inch

Mylar tweeter. The enclosure is made from dura-

ble ABS plastic. Its trapezoidal shape makes the

CX80P ideal for applications in tight locations and

it is built with a pole mount adapter for placing

the CX80P on a speaker stand.
Features include both a ¼-inch TRS INPUT

jack and a ¼-inch AUX OUT jack for inter-con-

necting additional CX80Ps. Controls include

GAIN, TONE and VOLUME. The ¼-inch TRS

LINE input can alternatively be used with a

microphone and the input sensitivity is switch-

able between MIC and LINE levels. The AC

VOLTAGE SELECTOR switch permits you to use

the CX80P with either 115VAC or 230VAC line

voltages around the world.

Power LED and ON/OFF Switch

The LED illuminates when the CX80P is connected

to the AC mains and switched on.

Voltage Selector Switch

According to the country in which you are using the

C1170P, set the switch for either 115VAC (i.e. North

America) or 230VAC (i.e. Europe)

INPUT and AUX OUT Jacks

The Input and Aux Out jacks are ¼-inch TRS phone jacks

and are balanced, however they are compatible for use with

unbalanced TS ¼-inch plugs as well. Connect your line-

level signal source here (mixer, CD/tape player, laptop etc.).
As noted earlier, the Input can be used alternatively to

connect a microphone. If the microphone does not have a

¼-inch plug, you will require an adaptor (or adaptor cable

such as our PC-25XPS 25-ft with female XLR to ¼-inch

stereo connectors). This turns the CX80P into a simple

and compact PA system. The Aux Out is wired in paral-

lel with the Input which permits connecting two or more

CX80Ps together (it’s recommended to use balanced ¼-

inch TRS cables such as Yorkville’s PC-10ST or PC-20ST

(10ft or 20ft TRS to TRS).

Line/Mic Switch

Select Line when connecting a line-level signal source to

the Input, or select Mic when connecting a microphone.

Note: Do not connect speaker-level sources such as

an amplifier’s output to the INPUT.

GAIN Control

The Gain allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the

CX80P’s Input preamp separately from the volume. When

starting out, set the gain around ‘5’ — then, re-adjust (as

needed) to maintain clarity with adequate volume.

Volume Control

The Volume control adjusts the overall loudness of the

CX80P, depending on the Gain control setting. When start-

ing out, set the Volume low (while adjusting the GAIN as

above), then increase the Volume to the appropriate setting.

Tone Control

The Tone control adjusts the treble balance. Start out with

a center/neutral setting, and then turn clockwise for treble

emphasis or counter-clockwise to soften the treble response.
