High-Performance Sound, Anywhere You Need It: The Yamaha DBR15
The Yamaha DBR15 is a 15-inch, 2-way active loudspeaker that delivers a powerful, high-resolution sound in a highly portable and versatile package. Inheriting the advanced Yamaha DSP, amplifier, and speaker technologies developed for the professional DSR and DXR series, the DBR15 provides a high-performance solution for a wide range of applications, including front-of-house, floor monitoring, and rigged installations.
The DBR15 boasts a powerful 1000W Class-D amplifier, capable of producing a massive 132dB SPL with remarkable clarity and dynamic characteristics. The custom-designed transducers, a high-output 15" woofer and a 1.4" precision compression driver, ensure a full and balanced sound across the entire frequency spectrum.
Yamaha's proprietary FIR-X tuning™ and D-CONTOUR intelligent multi-band compressor provide a level of sonic precision and control typically found in much more expensive speakers. Housed in a rugged, lightweight cabinet, the DBR15 is optimized for portability and easy setup, with a 50° wedge angle for floor monitoring and M10 rigging points for suspended applications.
