You'll Love the Sound of These Versatile PA Speakers

You'll be amazed at the sonic clarity and depth you get from Yamaha's DXR15mkII powered loudspeakers, part of their DXR/DXS line of Class D–powered PA speakers. Housed in durable, compact ABS enclosures, the 15" DXR15mkII 2-way speakers represent Yamaha's latest sound reinforcement technology. While they're ready for duty as part of a full-scale stage rig, DXR15mkII speakers pack maximum performance into an efficient design that's also perfect for gigging musicians. And thanks to the built-in 3-channel mixer, the DXR15mkII is perfect for those times when you need sound reinforcement but don't need an entire PA system. Whether you're playing pre-recorded music or performing for a crowd, you'll love the transparent sound of Yamaha's DXR15mkII powered loudspeakers.

Consistent clarity and balance at any volume

While any loudspeaker's tonal balance can vary depending on its output level, the DXR15mkII features Yamaha's D-Countour intelligent multiband compressor to maintain its sonic integrity at any volume. D-Contour constantly monitors multiple frequency bands, and makes real-time adjustments to keep the balance consistent — it won't mess with your mix, it just ensures your mix stays the same at any volume level. And live sound engineers at Sweetwater appreciate the flexibility to choose from two operational modes (FOH/Main or Monitor) to optimize the frequency balance depending on your application.

Full and detailed imaging thanks to advanced FIR-X tuning

Many loudspeakers exhibit a loss of clarity and/or volume in frequencies near their crossover points, but the Yamaha DXR15mkII maintains clear sound thanks to advanced FIR-X crossover tuning. Utilizing ultra-precise 48-bit DSP, FIR-X optimizes frequencies and phase relationships to practically eliminate crossover distortion. The result is a smooth, balanced response around the crossover frequencies and a better-sounding performance overall.

Built-in 3-channel mixer

While multiple DXR15mkII powered loudspeakers make a great sound system — especially when paired with a Yamaha DXS subwoofer — what about those situations where you just need a little bit of reinforcement without an entire sound system? Just turn the DXR15mkII around, and connect up to three microphones or line-level signals for instant amplification. The versatile nature of the DXR15mkII makes it the ideal loudspeaker for solo musicians, as well as schools and houses of worship that need a flexible sound system for multiple applications.

Yamaha DXR15 mkII Powered Loudspeaker Features:

  • High-powered portable loudspeaker with multi-use flexibility
  • 15" speaker, powered by 1,100 watts of peak power in a 2-way design
  • Built-in 3-channel mixer lets you connect microphones or line-level sources directly without an entire PA system
  • Built-in DSP for phase optimization and transparent dynamic control
  • ABS cabinet is durable, with a low-resonance design for maximum sound quality

Great Speakers

When a branch of our church where I worship needed speakers to go with our new setup without breaking the bank, I chose these over QSCs to save some money after a lot of research. To tell you the truth, these speakers have surpassed my expectations. We use them as the main speakers, and the sound is beautiful in lows and highs with our Soundcraft Si Expression 3 mixer, Sennheiser ew500 g4, and Shure slxd4 beta87 mics. Wow, what a beautiful sound. In my opinion, these speakers sound as good as QSCs or better. We use the Yamaha DHR12M as monitors, another powerful speaker that blends quite well with these ones, along with the Yamaha DXS18XLF subs.
These speakers are powerful, lightweight, and sound beautiful, both in the highs and lows. If you don't want to spend a lot of money yet want well-built, quality speakers with great sounds, go with these speakers, and you won't regret it.
I want to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to Jay Bryer at Sweetwater for his exceptional customer service and best deals.

Wonderful speakers

Very nice sounding, well balanced speakers with nice clear bass definition. Also, nice and light. I got the optional covers and those are nice too. Project well and transmit sound outside for a good long distance.

Yamaha DXRmkII 1100 W

Have Roland PM200 for very small gigs and a QSC sub and KS12.2 for large gigs and needed something for intermediate gigs. This speaker delivered. Loud and clear with very good bottom Plan to use it at big gigs with sub/speaker combo add even more punch. Well designed/built and surprisingly light for what it delivers.
Rated 4.5/5

Powerful powered loudspeaker.

It sounds like the original DXR 15 speaker. I like it. The price went up and the warranty used to be a 7 year warranty. It's lighter and doesn't feel that it's built as strong as the DXR 15. The DXR 15 feels very solid. But I like it because it's just about the same as the original. Yamaha still remains my favorite speaker and mixer brand.
