Yamaha DXR12 Powered Speaker (1x12")

No longer available at zZounds
Plug an XLR microphone or up to four line inputs directly into this active loudspeaker from Yamaha. With 1100 watts, it can put out a thunderous 132 dB SPL.

The Yamaha DXR12 is a versatile powered PA speaker in Yamaha's DXR line, with a 12-inch low frequency transducer and a 1.4-inch throat compression driver. Both speaker drivers are specially designed by Yamaha and utilize ferrite magnets. The DXR12 delivers 1100 watts of output power, with a frequency of 52Hz - 20kHz. The DXR12 has a little more bass definition than the smaller DXR10 and is more suitable as front-of-house main. They also make killer onstage monitors!

Versatile I/O For Solo Use Or In Series

Every Yamaha DXR powered speaker has 1 x Mic/Line balanced XLR input with a 10 dB pad. There is also 1 x XLR Thru jack. The 2 x stereo 1/4-inch line level jacks have their own 10 dB pad. After these, there is a 3rd input section that has stereo RCA jacks inputs with yet one more 10 dB pad. There is also a Link Out male XLR port that can be switched between Mono and Stereo modes.

FIR-X Tuning Keeps Speakers Sounding Great

All DXR powered speakers are preloaded with Yamaha's unique FIR-X tuning. This uses linear phase FIR filters for the crossover network. FIR-X tuning simultaneously optimizes frequency and phase response, and monitors time alignment between the two transducers. This was Yamaha's solution for obtaining maximally clear response around the crossover point, providing what many feel to be a better clarity and sound imaging than what other speakers can manage. A 48bit high-performance processor onboard allows the DXRs to perform their monitoring continuously read more and invisibly. All DXRs use high-precision 24-bit A/D and D/A converters.

Handy D-CONTOUR Feature for Gigging Musicians

A switch on the rear panel allows you to activate the D-CONTOUR feature on the DXRs. This is an active multi-band compressor that helps yield even more powerful and consistent sound at any dynamic level. It works by continually monitoring the output of multiple frequency bands, and calculating the optimum adjustments to be made to each range. The D-CONTOUR comes with two handy presets that help you get a good tone faster: the FOH/ MAIN mode and the MONITOR mode. FOH/MAIN mode boosts low frequencies to help compensate for low end that is lacking when you are using a full-range setup without a separate subwoofer. MONITOR mode is an optimized preset for floor monitor application, that pulls back on the low-frequencies that create boxy sound reflections.

Ruggedly Built and Ready for Any Situation

The DXR powered speakers are made from rugged, non-resonant ABS enclosures with no audible vibrations even at the highest output levels. They are fit with heavy-duty steel grilles and ergonomic aluminum handles. The DXR's pole mount socket offers a second mounting position with a 7-degree downward tilt, allowing you to angle the speakers down from the stage toward the audience, rather than over their heads.

I am a mobile DJ and usually play recorded music and a microphone. I tested DXR12 against QSC K12, EV ELX12P and JBL EON515XT and was amazed to find out how good it sounded against the other three!!
Sound
To be honest, all the speakers above sounded pretty much the same up to certain level, but when pushed, there was a big difference. DXR was the only one that kept up well keeping all its clarity and low-end. Really amazing speaker!!
Features
Great 3ch on-board mixer. Using "Link Mode", I can easily set up a stereo system without using a mixer. It also has flexible HPF setting, so I can select the best setting depending on the situation.
Ease of Use
Very easy. It just sounded great out of box. The processing called "D-CONTOUR" does a great job tailoring the sound to match FOH and monitor applications.
Quality
I used these cabs several times under an unrelenting sun, but they sounded great till the end of the show. The enclosure seems to be very durable. But above all, I really like the design of the cabinet!
Value
Best bang for the buck!
Manufacturer Support
Never used tech support, but I heard from my friends that Yamaha's support was really good.
The Wow Factor
It's just fun to play with these speakers. Super clean and surprisingly loud...
