Yamaha DXR15 MKII Powered Speaker Ex-Demo

The Yamaha DXR15 MKII powered speaker offers an incredible 1100w output, superior sound quality and a huge 7 year warranty for complete peace of mind. Despite its power and quality the single speaker weighs in at just 22.5Kgs making it perfectly portable for bands at larger venues and those looking for top sound quality. We would normally recommend these are bought in pairs to make a true stereo setup.

DXR15 MKII With 7 Year Warranty

Get absolute peace of mind when purchasing Yamaha DXR15 MKII speakers. Having been built as a premium speaker, Yamaha offer up a 7 year warranty which backs-up their incredible build quality. The speakers need registering within the first 6 months to qualify for the warranty, but it is completely free so you know your back is covered just in-case something goes wrong.

DXR15 MKII Custom-Designed Transducers

The DX15R MKII transducers were meticulously selected and thoroughly customized to deliver ultimate performance. The high power output woofers deliver very low distortion and defined, deep bass, while the newly equipped larger, yet much lighter 1.75? Neodymium precision HF compression drivers produce accurate mid-range and high frequencies up to 20 kHz with less weight.

The larger HF transducer is mounted to an all-new 90 x 60 degree, constant directivity horn, designed with the goal of minimizing radiation pattern deterioration in oblique directions as more conventional horns are prone to doing. This can help to achieve a more ideal coverage area without irregularities. With the new wide dispersion constant directivity horn, sound expands in a more rectangular pattern providing 90 degree horizontal and 60 degree vertical coverage, with wide-frequency sound projected to the edges of the coverage area.

DXR15 MKII On-board 3-Channel Mixer

The DXR15 mkII features a flexible onboard mixer with a variety of input, making it ideal for simple vocal/ instrument amplification. With its flexible IN/OUT, the DXR mkII Series can comprise a full sound reinforcement system, or seamlessly integrate into a setup utilizing DZR or DXS Series speakers.

The DXR15 mkII mixer can handle up to three simultaneous inputs. It accepts both Mic and Line level input, giving you the flexibility to connect to a variety of sources from microphones to line level instruments and portable audio devices. When in MIC position, a HPF is automatically activated to roll off unwanted low frequency.

The mixer also features a flexible HPF control to perfectly match with DXS subwoofers. You can choose either 100Hz or 120Hz depending on which subwoofer you are using in combination with the DXR15 mkII. DXS Series subwoofers feature flexible LPF settings allowing you to find the optimal HPF/LPF balance for your sound.

Each channel has an individual volume control, letting you mix three discrete audio sources. THRU out passes the input signal from Channel 1 and LINK OUT sends mixed signal from all channels-ideal for daisy-chaining or routing the signal to another destination. LINK OUT is very useful for configuring a compact SR system with another DXR, while LINK MODE allows you to easily switch between stereo or dual-mono configurations.

DXR15 MKII D-Contour - Intelligent Dynamic Control

D-CONTOUR is an intelligent multi-band compressor that gives you powerful and consistent sound throughout all output levels. By constantly monitoring the output of multiple frequency bands and calculating the optimum EQ adjustments for each, even the maximum sound output maintains outstanding clarity and musicality. With the DXR15 MKII, D-CONTOUR provides a more detailed tuning of your sound with two different settings: FOH/ MAIN mode or MONITOR mode. FOH/MAIN mode boosts low-frequency to compensate for low-end that is typically missing when speakers are used in suspended applications or mounted on a speaker stand.

MONITOR mode is completely optimized for floor monitor application by intelligently taming down the low-frequency that adds up due to floor reflection, smoothing out a wide range of frequency bands to give you stunning clarity for monitoring your sound. Both of these presets were perfected by performing countless listening tests with skilled sound engineers, giving you a multi-band compressor that performs dynamically, delivering consistent sound with low distortion at any output level.

Extensive DSP Protection Functions

The Yamaha DXR15 MKII takes things a step further in trying to get the very most out the amplifier but still protecting the internal components so you can rely on your sound at any time. DXR15 MKII speakers employ many of the same protection functions used in Yamahas top-class TXn Series professional power amplifiers. A microprocessor and high-power DSP monitor the status of the power supply, power amplifiers, transducers and ongoing signals to protect all aspects of each component. As a result, these speakers can perform to their full potential while ensuring reliable operation in even the most severe conditions.

Dual Pole Mount Options

Depending on the venue, sometimes your mix can fall prey to low ceilings or other room attributes that can impede a clear, even mix and detract from the audiences listening experience significantly. The DXR mkII's pole mount socket offers two positions - 0 and 7 degree socket - to direct the acoustic energy away from reflective surfaces and on to your audience where it belongs.
