"Great budget speakers"
Very good product for DJs or bands on a budget, but as always with a little more money you can get a better product. Although its not a bad buy by any means, if bands or DJs are looking to use this without subs at really high volume levels, you won't be satisfied. For use with subs, or in small to medium venues they are perfect.
Sound
For the price, you can't do much better in terms of sound quality. There will always be the issue of a 15' driver combined with a 1' HF driver producing terrible midrange, but for the price its not bad at all.
Features
Its pretty light, strongly built, good recessed handles. Only downside is there are only 1/4' input jacks, speakons would be nice, but they aren't needed.
Ease of Use
Its easy to use, just plug it into your amp and turn it on.
Quality
Built very well, like most Yamaha products. I had the rubber feet on one of mine rip off, but thats an easy fix. Overall they have survived the road and being dropped once without any issues.
Value
You can't get better new speakers for the money, period.

Yamaha BR15 PA Speaker Customer Review
If you are a DJ, I highly recommend these speakers. They are a nice middleweight speaker, not to big for small parties yet it can handle weddings, proms, school dances, etc... I had a band recently borrow these speakers and they were impressed with the mid-range. Add a BBE and you will be thoroughly impressed.
Sound
Nice smooth sound, not harsh on the ears. Bass response is surprisingly good. I have a BBE sonic maximizer which makes all the difference in the world. Even without it, The BR-15's still sound pretty darn good.
Features
(2) 1/4" inputs. Thats all you need!
Ease of Use
Easy to transport thanks to the nice handles, lightweight (48 lbs) which is nice for a 15" speaker. Trapezoid design is nice.
Quality
No complaints! I run a Carvin DCM1000 and crank it pretty hard doing school dances, weddings, etc..
Value
For what you pay, there is no better speaker on the market especially one with a decent name.
Manufacturer Support
None so far. Had the speakers 3 years.
