DZR12 - 7 Year Warranty

Get absolute peace of mind when purchasing Yamaha DZR12 speakers. Having been built as a premium high-end speaker, Yamaha offer up a 7 year warranty because they know they are reliable. 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.

Built-In 2000w Class D Amplifier

The Yamaha DZR12 is a powered speaker meaning the amplifier is built into the speaker itself not only making them more convenient for transport but also viable to be used as stand alone single speakers or part of a full system. Specifically designed for the new DZR range Yamaha's Class-D amplifier produces an outstanding 2000w of power and a very impressive 139dB SPL. The Amplifier was selected and tested to match the DZR12's high and low frequency transducers. A big advantage to having a built in amplifier is the transistors and amplifiers can be perfectly matched and optimised to give you the best possible performance.

Advanced FIR-X Tuning

With 2000w of power the DZR range a boasts 96kHz DSP processors which focus all the raw sound to the highest quality whilst still providing you with a super-low latency. The new advanced FIR-X uses Linear filters in the crossover section which allows for a solid rolloff and an ideal phase response. Utilising the FIR filters Yamaha were able to provide a smooth frequency response for stunning clarity and sound imaging without any phase distortion.

Built-In LCD Screen

The DZR12 is equipped with an easy to view LCD display. This screen provides you with a variety of information which can be used to make sometimes tricky adjustments much easier to change. You are able to quickly and easily adjust things such as the PEQ, Delay, routing options. The DZR12 also has the ability for you to store presets to USB which allows you to set one speaker up exactly how you like it or even have multiple presets saved to USB. These can be transferred easily and quickly to another speaker meaning the exact same settings on any number of speakers!

D-Contour

The DZR12 comes fitted with the new unique D-Contour feature which is a multi-band compressor, the compressor acts in real time to constantly monitor your frequency bands and adjusts the EQ accordingly to ensure your sound has optimum clarity and precision. The D-Contour function has two switchable modes, FOH/MAIN mode which suits front of house/full system situations. The second mode is MONITOR mode which optimises the DXR12 to work as a wedge monitor which helps by lowering the problematic low frequencies that can become overwhelming by floor reflection.

Custom Designed Transducers

Re-designed for the DZR range, in the DZR12 Yamaha have a HF Transducer which is made up of a 2" Voice Coil, a 1" Throat Compression Driver, a Titanium Diaphragm and Neodymium magnet. This is housed in an extremely durable heat resistant aluminium frame which provides all the protection you could hope for. Yamaha have also added the new LF transducer specifically designed for the new range. The HF uses 3" voice coils housed safely in aluminium and a very strong, lightweight neodymium magnet to handle high power and powerful low frequency response despite being lightweight. The Transducer provides a tight and controlled response especially in the mid-bass vocal range.

Optimised for any situation

As well as the dual function of the D-Contour which allows for Front of House and Monitor options you also have the added benefit of a rotatable horn which can be set either vertically or horizontally. This allows you to adapt your DZR speaker dependant upon the fitment in the venue as well as its purpose. So whether you are using the speaker in a hormonal position (front of house), using it as a wedge monitor or even mounting the DXR horizontally in a venue the horn can be rotated to optimise the sound for either situation.

Solid and Durable Construction

With all of these extremely high quality and expensive components Yamaha have spared no expense in protection! Constructed using 15mm thick plywood and then finished off being painted with a military grade Polyurea coating. To add to this already solid construction each of the edges are connected with butterfly joints for extra additional strength and vibration reduction. The shape of the cabinet on all the DZR speakers allows for perfect mirror when when seated on the floor, they sit at 50 degrees on both sides of the cabinet so mirroring them on stage allows for perfect monitoring, creating a symmetrical sound field and much larger sweet-spot for the performer.
