If only the big companies did tests like this. Thanks again JH for a super useful and practical video
You're welcome brother and you're spot on and I agree...I'd love for companies to make useful videos that'd help musicians like us make more informed decisions on buying their gear. I'm glad I trust Yamaha though and have been happy with most of their live sound / PA gear that I've purchased.
@@JHGurganus agreed, if companies tested their whole product line back to back people would be much more informed. Otherwise people like us have to buy it, test it, and record it. You're welcome, Yamaha!
@@MichaelAlso yes good way to put it! Hey question for you...can you plug an acoustic-electric guitar directly into the 4/5 sum input on the stagepas 200? The reason I'm wondering is in case there's a situation where you need 2 vocal mics and two guitars plugged in. Thanks! Actually, if you don't mind, if a guitar will work plugged into that 4/5 input, can you still use bluetooth as well? Thanks
@@JHGurganus I haven't tried that yet using the 4/5 sum channel but when I do I will write back and let you know!
@@MichaelAlso okay cool thank you I appreciate it!
DXR only just, both great though! Cheers!
@@audiobunny1767 cheers!
very nice comparison, thank you for making the video!
Thank you very much and you're welcome!
Hello, you have nice voice and you play very well 😀
Thank you very much 👍 have a good one!
Very helpfull, Thank you. I'd go for the dxr 12, even if more expensive. They sound fuller. Great music and rendition by the way.
Thank you very much and thanks for watching! Great choice of course!
Thanks for doing this review mate it was very helpful in my choice of speaker.
You're welcome and glad it was helpful to you!
Total curiosity...which one did you go with and what is the application?
The speakers are for my Sons first band so I’m thinking I’ll go with the DBR12 with a dxs15 sub.
@@jasontaylor8425 that sounds like a great combination and I remember reading online that a guy was running a band with two DBR12s and a DXS12 sub and was happy with it so your DXS15 would be even better! Congratulations...
I respect your mullet.
Haha thx I had to watch the intro again dang it was long! It's a lot shorter and up off of my shoulders now.
Great video and thanks for posting this!!
You betcha!!
This is was very helpful. And I really appreciate your videos and the time you put into making them. I am considering 2 DBR12 on Stands and Plugging my AER Compact 60 amp into them for larger venues that are to big for the AER alone. With your experience with the Portable PA systems could you tell me your opinion if you think it would provide better audio using an AER and 2 DBR 12's than an all in one unit? Other than the convince of having a portable PA system? I feel like the sound quality will be better amplifying the AER sound.
Thank you I'm glad the videos are helpful. I appreciate it...it doesn't take all day but it certainly takes a little time to set things up, shoot a quick video and then tear everything down!
I wish I could help you more with your question but I don't have a lot of experience with guitar amplifiers like yours. I certainly read a lot of good things about them though. I think running your AER into the dbr12s would end up sounding great for sure and would possibly provide a bigger, fuller sound but I've never tried it. I had a Fender Acoustasonic for years but never really used it and sold it to a friend. Was your question referring to your AER into two dbr12s as opposed to something like an EV evolve 30m or 50m on it's own? If so, something tells me you would get more of a pure acoustic sound out of your guitar using your AER, however, I always run my acoustic guitars directly into a mixer and then out to the PA speakers and I'm good with that sound. But I totally understand sound is subjective and everybody knows what they want to hear out of their equipment. For some reason, every time I've gotten a column system I've ended up wasting my money and selling it. From experience, if you were going to continue to use the AER I would run that into the DBR12s. Hope that helps somehow!
@@JHGurganus thank you so much. This actually did help me decide the direction I want to go. The AER tone is excellent in replicating the true tone of my acoustic guitars and I really want to be able to amplify the tone and sound of the amp because it sounds so good. My gut tells me to use the amp to 2 PA speakers to amplify and create a stereo sound. I am a fan of Yamaha quality. The portable PA systems intrigue me for convenience and portability. But your experience with them and not being overwhelmed to keep one cements my line of thinking. Thank you again for your time and sharing your experience.
@@LivingARareLife You're very welcome! Funny thing is about acoustic guitar tone - I have found that when I really hear the naturally amplified tone I know it right away! So I know what you're shooting for for sure. Yes I am a big fan of Yamaha quality as well, and though I've tried other brands, I've always ended up back with Yamaha gear as you can tell from my channel. If you don't mind, let me know if you get the dbr12s and how you end up liking the sound running your amp directly into them. Thanks!
What type of mixer do u use buddy not a lot of difference just the dxr12 the sound its lil more open and clear .
I use a Yamaha mg10xu mixer and yeah they sound very close don't they?
seems like the Dx sounds actually not sure its so close
@@m6h3r thank you
dbr a little sounds thick, but dxr is cleaner
Appreciate you listening and your thoughts
Dxr definetly sounds alot more cleaner and full
@@Altonivel93 thx appreciate you listening
👏👏👏👏❤
Hello. Have you got the chance to test the Dxr12 mkii outdoor with more than an acoustic guitar and one or two singers ? With a small band (4 people max) ? I have already a sub 15 inches and I’d like to buy PA speakers to replace my current stagepas400 too limited for gigs outdoor. Thanks ;-)
Sorry just saw this. Yes absolutely we have used two dxr12s and two dxs15 subs outside with a band of five and sometimes six with mic'd drums. I have also used two dxr12s in a duo with one acoustic guitar and myself and a female on vocals to cover 250 plus people in an outdoor open air concert in the park. I respect the stagepas 400 and 600 systems and I used to have a couple different Stagepas 600 systems in the past. The 600 definitely got the job done, and though I never had them side by side, I feel the dxr12s would run past the stagepas system pretty easy when pushed. Hope that helps!
Vocals and guitar carry better on the DXR12MkII. Both are good quality speakers though.
@@TrollingstonJohn I love both! Thanks for the perspective from your ear much appreciated 👍
Is this speaker applicable in karaoke or better for live music only?
I think they're absolutely great for live sound. Never used them for karaoke but I think they would be absolutely just fine for that application. The 12" would reproduce the low end but of course if you wanted a full range sound with deep lows, you would still get a subwoofer. Definitely depends on your end goal but yes I would say these are very usable for karaoke. Hope that helps!
@@JHGurganus thanks! Cheers.
@@aprilliew763 welcome and cheers 👍
considera o dxr bem mais forte que o dbr? no vídeo a diferença é pouca.
I honestly cannot say that I would consider it much stronger. But truthfully, I have never pushed them both. From what I believe, I think the biggest difference would come out when both of them are pushed to the max. I believe the DXR would go a little louder SPL wise and stay a little cleaner. Again, this is just a guess and I have never pushed them both that hard. I agree very little difference in this video at these levels. I have to use headphones and really listen to hear a slight difference. Even then I think it comes down to taste at these lower levels. Hope that helps somehow!
boss can i setup dxr12 mkii and dbr15 together in one mixer?
I would say yes you could. Sonically someone may be able to tell a difference if they listened close enough - but if that's what you had to do to get the job done then that would work. Hope that helps 👍
@@JHGurganus thanks so much for your quick reply boss. but how abouut the sound quality? does it affect too? should i buy the same model and size really? or should i better use only 1 rather than not same size and model?
thanks for your input
@@hakdwak you're welcome. I think the dbr and dxr series sound really close to each other and I believe (but I've never tested) the differences become apparent once you start reaching max SPLs. If the space you're trying to fill needs only 1 speaker, then you're good with just 1. If the spaces you need to fill normally require 2 speakers for proper coverage, then I would try to use the same speakers (if possible) at the very least for aesthetic reasons.
@@JHGurganus noted on this. you just give me a reason to buy again speakers. wahahahahaha! cheers mate
Perfect 👍 I love finding reasons to buy new gear myself! Cheers!
Taki test to bez sensu. DXR12MKII jest lepszą, nowszą kolumną. Jest na starcie lepsza :-) kosztuje razy dwa. To jeszcze DZR tam tylko brakuje.
Sorry you feel that way but thx for your opinion. This is to show similarities and differences and maybe help someone in their purchasing decision. Sure, DZR is missing and so is DHR but luckily I wasn't trying to show the whole lineup.
