any reviews for Yorkville Parasource speakers?

Post by Quai34 »

Hi,
Ok, I know this might be more a question for Canadian users as this is a Canadian brand but I cannot find any comparative review between the Parasource line and the QSC K line or EV speakers....Is there any user on this forum that had a chance to compare them, in use or in a store, etc and could give us his opinion? I have them but was never able59 compare them with anything else....

I don't think you're going to find any head-to-head reviews between the PSPs and the new K.2s, so you'll have to hope someone in Canada has done some recent comparison shopping. Here in the US, you wouldn't find them on a showroom floor.

Lots of similarities. Since QSC has the larger R&D budget, I would expect them to produce an incrementally better product -- all things being equal. That would likely manifest itself in things like flatter response, better cooling, better DSP and so on. None of these may be meaningful differences to you.

Also, I found it interesting that QSC published frequency response curves for the K.2, I couldn't find any for the PSPs.
I think I have gear issues ....

Yes, that's why I'm asking on the forum, we have few Camadian guys, so, if they have done a comparison, even with the former K series, that would help.
Thanks

If you're near a Long and McQuade they will probably rent you a set and put the rental towards the purchase price.

Yorkville = Traynor and will likely not compete with the quality of other brands mentioned.
