Yamaha has announced additions to its lineup of professional audio speakers, the powered DHR series and passive CHR series, each with three models to address sound reinforcement requirements.
They can deliver a complete fixed or portable sound reinforcement system for event spaces, clubs, ballrooms, houses of worship and more.
Positioned between the flagship DZR / CZR series and the affordable DBR / CBR series, all DHR and CHR units feature selected custom transducers, plywood cabinets and a polyurea coating, delivering a combination of high quality sound, durability and road worthiness not found in other loudspeakers of this class.
The DHR15 and CHR15 two-way, 15-in units are designed for front of house applications, including dual angle pole mount sockets, M10 rigging options and full range performance.
The DHR12M and CHR12M are Yamaha’s first dedicated coaxial 12-in floor monitors, delivering precise, phase coherent monitoring in a low profile form factor. A side pole-mount adds flexible use as an outfill or a portable main PA unit.`
The flexible, two-way DHR10 and CHR10 are 10-in units designed for use as fills or delays, with the most flexible configuration and mounting options. These ‘utility’ speakers also feature a rotatable 90º x 60º horn so, whether pole mounted or flown using the inbuilt rigging points or with an optional U-bracket, the DHR10 and CHR10 can be installed virtually anywhere.
All DHR models feature Class-D amplification, flexible ‘in the box’ DSP, switched line/mic inputs and an onboard, quick-access two channel mixer, while CHR models include dual NL4 connectors and advanced DSP via tailored amplifier presets available in Yamaha’s PX and PC-D series amplifiers.
