Yamaha Active Speakers


We've just been testing our new Yamaha DXR speakers in the warehouse and the sound they produce is brilliant. 

With a range of DXR12's and DXR15's we can cater for all occasions, and we also have some DXS subs for those who want some real bass. With a range of inputs and built in amplifiers these are ideal for any event from a birthday disco to a full band gig. 

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

DXR Series loudspeakers offer superb high-definition sound and class-leading sound pressure levels—yet in a compact and extremely functional design that provides a level of versatility unmatched by any speaker in its class today. Combining the DXRs with our new DXS subwoofers will further elevate your system's performance, giving you versatile control of its thunderous bottom end. With the perfect balance of raw power and innovative speaker technologies, you can depend on DXR Series speakers to deliver the full power of your performance to every member of your audience.

We've put together a few packages which include cables and stands, but if you are looking for a specific setup why not give us a call and we can put together something designed for your specifications.
