Digital FIR-X tuning™

FIR-X tuning is Yamaha's proprietary linear phase digital crossover technology that delivers sound quality with superb clarity and imaging.  FIR filters are usually only found in speakers in higher price brackets (over £1K).  The FIR filter handles the common phasing issues which occur around the cross-over point of the speaker helping to achieve the ‘High-definition’ sound with no colouration or fuzziness

D-CONTOUR

Yamaha D-Contour offers intelligent multi-band dynamic processing which can continuously deliver sound that is natural, clear and powerful - regardless of volume. The technology constantly monitors the output of multiple frequency bands so that the system can sense a change, react accordingly and adjust the EQ and compression so that you're always getting the best performance out of your speakers.

Extensive DSP-controlled protection functions

To ensure that the speakers have the highest possibly reliability, The DBR Series employs 3-way fail safe protection function that is controlled by DSP and ensures reliable operation of all internal components including transducers, power amplifiers, and power supplies. Yamaha are so confident in this system that they offer a 4 YEAR WARRANTY on the DBR speakers!

Here's what Yamaha say about the DBR12 Active PA Speaker

DBR Series powered loudspeakers harness the same state-of-the-art Yamaha DSP, amplifier and speaker technologies developed for the professional DSR Series and DXR Series lineups, ensuring high-resolution sound at any output level.

High-Efficiency 1000W Class-D Amplifiers

The DBR's lightweight, high performance Class-D amplifier is capable of producing up to 1000W* of power, achieving an SPL of 132dB, delivered with remarkable clarity and dynamic characteristics. *DBR10 has an output level of 700W.

Custom Designed Transducer

The high power output woofers deliver well-defined, powerful bass with minimal distortion, while the 1.4" precision compression driver* produces accurate mid-range and high frequencies. *DBR10 features a 1" compression driver.

A Rugged, Highly Portable Cabinet

DBR Series speakers feature a compact, lightweight, and durable plastic cabinet which offers the highest level of portability of all Yamaha powered speakers. The sleek steel grille bolsters cabinet durability and protects the internal components while a newly designed ergonomic handles provide effortless transportation and system setup.

Smart Enclosure Design for Floor Monitoring

DBR Series speakers feature an optimized 50 degrees wedge angle for floor monitoring. In addition the DBR12 and DBR15's symmetrical shape allows for effortless configuration of a mirror-mode floor monitoring system in either symmetrical or stereo sound field setups.

Easy-to-use Onboard 2-Channel Mixer

DBR Series speakers have two input channels. CH1 has a combo jack which accepts both XLR and TRS Phone allowing for either Mic or Line level input signals. CH2 offers two input options; a combo jack that accepts XLR or TRS Phone, and an RCA pin jack for input from CD players or other stereo line-level sources. The onboard mixer allows you to select either CH1+2 MIX to mix the signal of CH1 and CH2, or CH1 THRU to pass the signal from CH1 only.

Rigging Points for Installation Applications

DBR loudspeakers come equipped with M8 rigging threads, allowing for rigged applications with optional speaker brackets or standardized eye-bolts. *Speaker brackets and eye-bolts are not included.

Functional Speaker Cover

Yamaha's newly designed functional speaker covers that protect your speakers from unfavourable weather conditions during outdoor performances, dusty and dirty warehouse storage, or the rigors of equipment transport on the road. *Functional Speaker Cover is not included.

We bought this equipment to go with a Hymnal Plus HT400 for our church. This can be programmed to play numerous types of organ music, from a basic piano to an Albert Hall type grandeur. It requires a powered Speaker and the Yamaha was perfect. The church is quite large with a high barrelled ceiling. Tilted at it's 45 degree angle and only on 3 out of 10, it fills the church with an amazing sound. It is portable enough to be moved to other locations and used for other purposes relatively easily.
