Ultra-Precise DSP Processing for High Definition Sound

The DBR models feature Yamaha's proprietary FIR-X tuning™ utilizing linear phase FIR* filters for the crossover. FIR-X tuning™ simultaneously optimizes frequency and phase response while adjusting the time alignment between the HF and LF transducers. This creates a very smooth response around the crossover point, providing much better clarity and imaging than what is possible with conventional crossovers. All signals are precisely processed by a high-performance processor for high-definition sound quality. All full-range models employ high-precision 24bit discrete A/D and D/A converters with superior S/N ratio and dynamic range.

High-Efficiency 700W Class-D Amplifier

The DBR10 compact but highly efficient Class-D amplifier also delivers class-leading sound output with 700W of power, producing an impressive SPL of up to 129dB, with consistent precision and dynamic performance. The powerful amplifier employs a switching-mode power supply that guarantees consistent performance worldwide.

Detailed Features:

• Intelligent Dynamic Control for Consistent Clarity at Any Output Level: D-CONTOUR is an intelligent multi-band compressor that gives you powerful and consistent sound throughout all output levels. Typically, a normal boosting mode adds a certain amount of EQ boost consistently, regardless of the output level. D-CONTOUR works differently. By constantly monitoring the output of multiple frequency bands, DBR speakers calculate and dynamically apply the optimum EQ adjustments for each, maintaining outstanding clarity and musicality even at low or maximum SPL levels. With the DBR Series, D-CONTOUR provides a more detailed tuning of your sound with two different settings: FOH/MAIN mode or MONITOR mode. FOH/MAIN mode boosts low-frequency to compensate for low-end that is typically missing when speakers are used in suspended applications or mounted on a speaker stand. MONITOR mode is completely optimized for floor monitor application by intelligently taming down the low-frequency that builds up due to floor reflection to give you stunning clarity or monitoring your sound. Both of these presets were perfected by performing countless listening tests with skilled sound engineers, giving you a multi-band compressor that performs dynamically, delivering consistent sound with minimal distortion at any output level.
• Extensive DSP Protection Functions for Maximum Output: In a typical system comprised of passive loudspeakers, power amps, and signal processors, trying to set optimal parameters for each component can be a daunting task. One of the advantages of powered loudspeakers is that the combination of transducers and amps can be perfectly optimized. During developing the DBR Series, Yamaha measured and tested the durability of each transducer and the overall amp output through countless indoor and outdoor listening tests. This allowed Yamaha to set the optimal limiter point using precise DSP control. Further, a microprocessor and high-power DSP monitor the status of the power supply, power amplifiers, transducers and ongoing signals, to protect all aspects of each component. As a result, these speakers can perform to their full potential while ensuring reliable operation in even the most severe conditions.
• Custom Designed Transducer for High-Definition Sound: The DBR Series are all equipped with highly efficient Class-D amplifiers that were designed to match HF and LF transducers and get the very best performance out of each model. Combined with customized speaker units, these high-performance amplifiers deliver the highest sound output in their class, producing up to 129dB SPL in the DBR10. The high power output woofers deliver well-defined, powerful bass with minimal
  distortion, while the 1" precision compression driver produces accurate mid-range and high frequencies.
• Wide Dispersion Constant Directivity Horn for Consistent Sound Dispersal: The extremely accurate constant directivity horn was designed with the goal of minimizing the radiation pattern deterioration in oblique directions that other, more conventional horns are prone to. This can help to achieve a more ideal coverage area without irregularities. With Yamaha's wide dispersion constant directivity horn, sound expands in a more rectangular pattern, evenly dispersing wide-frequency sound to the outer-most edges of the coverage area.
• 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 grill bolsters cabinet durability and protects the internal components while a newly designed ergonomic handles (one on top) provide effortless transportation and system setup.
• Smart Enclosure Design for Floor Monitoring: DBR Series speakers feature an optimized 50 degree wedge angle for floor monitoring.
• Easy-to-use On-board 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 on-board 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.
