The Yamaha DXR8mkII Speaker makes the most of its 1100W of power, delivering extremely high output while maintaining outstanding resolution. Adding a DXS12mkII subwoofer gives you an ultra-compact high-power SR system.

Custom-Designed Transducers

The 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-inch Neodymium precision HF compression drivers produce accurate midrange and high frequencies up to 20 kHz with less weight.

Wide Dispersion Constant Directivity Horn

The larger HF transducer is mounted to an all-new 90-degree 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 x 60-degree vertical coverage, with wide-frequency sound projected to the edges of the coverage area.

The Power of D

Everything from the detailed management of crossover, EQ, and time alignment to the limiter settings, protection functions, and precise dynamic control of the sound, was subjected to endless simulation, in-house, and field testing to ensure that these speakers produce the highest level of sound quality at the highest output levels possible. Combined with Yamaha’s advanced analog signal processing and acoustic technologies, the Power of ‘D’ delivers ultimate performance.

Ultra-Precise 48-Bit DSP Processing for High-Definition Sound

The DXR8mkII features Yamaha's proprietary FIR-X tuning utilizing linear phase FIR filters for the crossover network. FIR-X tuning simultaneously optimizes frequency and phase response while adjusting the time alignment between the HF and LF transducers. This creates a very smooth response around the crossover point, providing much better clarity and imaging than what is possible with typical crossovers.

All-New Compact, High-Power Amp Modules

The DXR8mkII is equipped with highly efficient Class-D amplifiers that were optimally designed to match the DXRmkII's HF and LF transducers.

Durable and Compact ABS Enclosures

The DXR8mkII is molded in rugged, non-resonant ABS enclosures, and is designed to dampen down vibrations caused by high output levels, producing less distortion and superior sonic quality.

Intelligent Onboard 3-Channel Mixer

The DXR8mkII features a flexible onboard mixer with a variety of inputs, making it ideal for simple vocal/ instrument amplification. With its flexible IN/OUT, the DXR8mkII can comprise a full sound reinforcement system, or seamlessly integrate into a setup utilizing DZR or DXS Series speakers.

Dual-Angle Pole Mount Socket

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 audience's listening experience significantly. The DXR8mkII’s pole mount socket offers two positions; 0-degree and 7-degree to direct the acoustic energy away from reflective surfaces and onto your audience where it belongs.
