Thanks man for the great in-depth review! I have subscribed! I think I am gonna buy. One point on your criticism of the position of the IEC power socket: Possibly Yamaha's decision to place it on the face panel was so that the mixer could be used and powered while still seated in the speaker mixer dock...a case of neatness and cable management from a different application perspective.
Yep! I realized that one day when i decided to keep the mixer in the back of the speaker. lol

Nolan Chiat Yep! I realized that recently when I used the speaker with the mixer still in the back. It’s handy to have a 1 foot 1/4” cord for those situations.
It becomes 17 kilograms including one speaker plus the mixer. I think most people would have difficulty to carry it at such docked manner
To bluetooth, the phone bluetooth has to be on before you press the pairing button on the mixer for 3 seconds and it works great with a range of almost 60 feet
I'll have to give it another try the next time I use the StagePas. Thanks for the tip!
Michael DeHart And you need to hold your phone very close to the mixer during pairing, only. Security feature to prevent hacking.
Bluetooth worked flawlessly for me with my iPhone 14.
The phone has to be really close to the mixer to connect. They say it's to keep people from hacking it
T Abel Yep. Good feature.
Yeah, you are right. You need to put your phone over the mixer to connect!
Hi! Is it usable at home? ... Small studio levels.. I have to recommend it to an artist that'll do shows with it, but wants to be able to playback music or recordings at home...
Is it usable at low levels?
I wouldn't worry about running a TS cable for a long distance, provided that it's an actual speaker cable of sufficient gauge and not an instrument cable. A speaker cable is designed to carry an amplified line signal, so any noise that it picks up along the way should be insignificant in comparison.
I made sure to order speaker cables and not instrument cables. Haven't had any issues yet and I just ordered some longer 50' cables.
Does this work great for a piano player and singer at a bar?
Evidentemente eres un hombre profesional en el tema de audio. ¿Qué diferencia, en cuanto a sonido, tiene este sistema de parlantes convencionales y los arreglos lineales como el BOSE L1 Pro o el RCF Jmix8? ¿cuál suena mejor? Muchas gracias.
I have the older 400i , it sounds amazing with a powered 12" sub
Just bought one for $1,780 usd... was that a good idea?
Can I connect headphones to the Monitor Out jack?
I would say no. The monitor out jack is a balanced TRS whereas a headphone jack is not. You might get audio out of your headphones but it won't work correctly as it's not a proper stereo output for headphones.
@@TheAngrySoundTech I bought the Behringer headphone amplifier AMP800 and connected to the 600BT's monitor out jacks. It's working great for our silent band sessions.
@@ryle3288 Oh yeah! I hadn't thought about doing that. I own a bunch of the Behringer PM1's I imagine that would work too.
Hello. Thanks for all your reviews. Did you get the Yamaha stagepas1k? If so, what are you thoughts on it? I bought one recently for live performances with a small latin band, and like it.
Nice review! For a performing artist (singer/songwriters) can you connect a floor monitor? Or are the speakers the monitors?
There is a separate monitor out to plug in a floor monitor. The floor monitor must be powered or you need to use a separate amp. The amp in the built in mixer of the StagePas 600BT only powers the two speakers that come with it. But I'll note that you cannot mix a separate monitor mix. The monitor mix is what is coming out the mains.
The Angry Sound Tech thank you for your clear reply.
What's your opinion yamaha stagepas 600 vs 400 and vs 1k markii? let's focus on soundquality for live acoustic gig (guitar and 1 or 2 voices)? Anyone pls comment who tried them (we are using 400 and we really love it, but can 600 be a great upgrade?) Thank in advance
Good review, Qs about the feedback suppression, could a band now have both main speakers behind them and not have feedback from the mics?
I'd say probably not. Maybe at lower volumes but I wouldn't trust it at higher volume levels. I'm not sure how exactly the feedback suppression works in this system.
I kind of wonder if it just adjusts the EQ. Or if it really finds feedback frequencies and notches them out.
@@TheAngrySoundTech thank you very much for the reply, im thinking now maybe the yamaha EMX2 might be a better fit, more power for the band im in and it also has the feedback supression etc. do you reckon yamaha mixer would go well with JBL speakers?
I think the EMX2 has been discontinued. You'll have to look at the EMX5 or EMX7. I'd go with the EMX7 just to have the extra power available. Should have no issues using that with JBL speakers. Which speakers do you have?
@@TheAngrySoundTech discontinued? not in europe it isnt, there are options to buy over here. the speakers are JBL JRX 12 passive. we're looking for a good powerful PA mixer for a 5 piece band
I have a question. The mixer powers 680W. I want a longer power cable but the ones available are either 500W or 700W. Which one should I get?
You would want to go with a bigger power cord. Realistically you could probably go with an 18 AWG cord but I would personally go with a 16 AWG cord.
how about sound quality of this speaker ? what about loudness?
Hey can we use an external mixer like mg12 mixer with the stagepass 600
Can we change internally the subwoofer crossover from 120hz to 80hz in any way?
i just bought this and love it..but i have a question. im a solo acoustic performer, and when going on break my old pa had a "break" button without having to turn power off so i could disconnect guitar. is there a way to do that on this unit without turning power off?
These things are great! I currently own 3 of them but the one downside of "All-In-One" gear is that the features tend to be a little light. The mixer is a classic example. It's very basic. You don't get channel mutes, break button, full EQ, gain knobs, etc. My recommendation would be to set your guitars volume to a specific spot (perhaps the arrow at 1 o'clock. Then mix everything else around your guitar. Then when you go on break just turn the volume down on your guitar channel and unplug. When you come off break all you have to do is bring it back up to the arrow.
Will it work into a full band?
do these provide enough bass or do you recommend a sub? If so, any recommendations?
I plan on using these with a projector for backyard movies and the occasional bbq. So personal home use
They are pretty decent bass wise for 10" speakers. I do use them with the Yamaha DXS12MKII for additional bass.
@@TheAngrySoundTech is there any model of Sub that can use for this? aside to DXS12 because it's too expensive almost same price of this whole PA.
You can use any sub you want with it but just know the Stagepas crosses itself over at 120Hz so to have a smooth crossover point you should use a sub that has a variable crossover so you can set it at 120Hz.
@@TheAngrySoundTech my subwoofer has a fixed crossover for 80hz. I'm pulling the audio from my subwoofer output High pass 80hz and sending to Stagepas, but I can't mix the bass anymore with the mixer
Anyone know how well this would work for a singer and acoustic guitar running through it? and maybe mic a cajon too. Looking to do small acoustic gigs.
Works great with my small band. We primarily use it for vocals, but we have run a guitar in there too and there’s plenty of room for another instrument if needed. Our amps for our instruments are loud enough, but they don’t have the quality of sound that the vocals need, which is where this system excels!!
Sir can i use a passive subwoofer to this unit?
Active
I am looking for this system but I need to run it off a halo Bolt battery which is max 65 volts. The bolt works fine with my 15 inch behringers, I wanted to get a couple of qsc's 10's but they requrie 110 volts. What do these stagepass require?
100V-240V - I think you'll find that to be the case for most gear as they are designed to be plugged into a standard outlet.
cái cần là mở âm thanh thì không mở, toàn nói không
What speaker
case did you buy?
I bought the rolling yamaha cases that are for the StagePas system.
I'm wondering if I could use my extra line 6 guitar amp as the base response speaker 12" ... Possible or not??
I'd say it's possible. The 1/4" subwoofer output automatically crosses over at 120Hz. But I can't guarantee it would sound good. You'll have to give that a test run yourself.
Can we line in the drums in it?
Are you talking about micing a full drum set? If so there are only 4 XLR in's so I think you would run short.
@@TheAngrySoundTech oh ok thanks.
Super klang meine Nano 300
Stagepas 600bt or 1 QSC K12.2 w/ Yamaha MG10XU mixer?
The stagepas is good if you need a portable all in one system. But the QSC and Yamaha mixer combo is the better choice for future scalability. Down the road if you add a second QSC you could do a much larger venue.
@@TheAngrySoundTech Thanks for the insight! Have you tried the Yamaha Stagepas 1k yet? I've been considering getting that system as well.
I have not tried the stagepas 1k yet. But I've been thinking about getting one to replace my JBL Eon One.
@@TheAngrySoundTech No Bluetooth on that Yamaha mixer that comes with that WSC combo... :(
You say something a bit more higher end, could you give an example
Well I don't know of a higher end all in one system like this. My plan for my personal use is to switch to the Yamaha DXR10MKII's when they come out.
If I want someone talking so much, as he shows facts on it, I can go to politics and speak over speak over speach.
But I want a sample of the equipment, what it sounds, what are the features of a model and which components are passing through it, and makes this more useful.
Or some hacks, how I can work.
But thanks for your time!
If you want to hear how something sounds you should get an in person demo. I do not record audio demos because they are only as good as your computer speakers or headphones or my microphone. If you want a rundown of features read the manual. I always get annoyed when I click on a video saying it's a review and all they do is read the features from the manual. I can read so I don't need to watch a video for that. On my channel I give my personal thoughts on gear from my perspective as a DJ/Sound Tech/Rental Company. Some videos are my initial thoughts on pieces of gear and some videos are my long term use reviews. I'll probably do an updated extended use review of this item soon as we now have multiples of these and they go out almost every weekend.
Is this PA good enough for small clubs for bands to use vocals from.
Are you talking about just running vocals through it?
To much talking and more demonstrations to hear the Damn Thing!
