Hi guys,

see http://muyiovatki.dk/yorkville/

comments appreciated, is the 4 Ohm box broken?


How can you have the same loudspeaker in two different impedance versions?
You change the windings on the drivers, you're going to have to change the
crossover as well and a number of other things. Pretty soon, what you have
isn't the same speaker at all.

I think what you have are two very different speakers in the same box.

From the specs on the Yorkville page for the PL315:

Specifications subject to change without notice
