- Yamaha DXS 15 Mk2 review
This is a re-upload of a previous video which had a copyright issue and was removed from the UA-cam search engine. I have removed the offending music 'Queen - Under Pressure'.

I don't make any money from this video and I don't plan on making any money from this video.
Cheers..

Awesome man.... I like that sound system. Small but great quality 👌
I have 2 DXS15 MK2 and i very love it, powerful, clear and punchy, regards from Indonesia
Good stuff. Excellent value for money subs that do the job well
10:36 try to find the true rms. Easy. divide the declared power value by 2 when you trust the brand and by 4 when you don’t.
This applies even when the quote unquote true rms is already listed. Don’t fall for it.
In the case of the EKX 18, starting from 1300W divided by 4 gives you 325. It’s quite realistic.
yeah that's actually not a bad way of looking at it :)
This was a really helpful and informative video.
Thanks dude cheers
Great informative video! I was looking for it to revisit and pleased I found the updated version.
We use one dxs sub and 2 x DBR 12s for my sons band. I found with the sub certain frequencies when pushed hard will make the sub box it self rattle.
I found having the gain structure spot on with the electric drums helps a lot too. That is for the kick drum mainly. Using a Presonus 16 0 2 desk I use the xlr into the preamp. I don’t need as much gain compared to the 1/4” in and that makes a huge difference . The bass guitar sounds awesome through it too.
Over all it’s a great sub..🤙
Nice one thanks for the watch. I'm surprised you found the video as since I've re-uploaded it I can't get it to appear in any search function. May I ask how you found the video? UA-cam search function?
No worries. Had me beat what happened to your vid.
The only way I found it was by putting in something like, Yamaha DXS15 mk2 sub review Australia.
@@rodcole818 Cheers. Yeah I had to take it down as it had Queen's 'Under Pressure' song in it and was banned in a lot of countries so I edited it out and re-uploaded it.
Yes they crack down on that for sure.
Shame it has to go. There were some great comments in there.
Thanks for the effort in putting the review together..🤙
Really good video. Thank you. Similar setup here, running 2 x DXR10 with one EKX 18 SP. You just described the ekx in a perfect way. Im thinking in selling it. Just needed 2 more tops for others gigs and got myself some powerfull FBT Promaxx 14a . Now im torne beetween one DXS15 MKii or one DXS18 . In the future I will grab a second one. Im thinking to pair with these FBT tops, I reaaly need some serious bass, so I was thinking the 18 would make.more.sense. But this thing is so much bigger and hevier than the EKX. Also, it costs much more here in brazil than the 15 ones. Do you feel like it would be better for you if had a dxs18 in some gigs? One dsx15 can go as loud as one EKX18? Thank you in advance. Best wishes
The DXS 18 has that 30hz punch in your gut sub. I personally love the DXS 18 more because i love that sub but over the years was surprised how many people complained about the sub at mobile DJ gigs that I did as I mentioned in the video. You really need both :). When I do events with mainly younger people I'd go the DXS 18 but when the event is mixed ages or mainly people over 50 years old roughly I'd go a pair of DXS 15 mk2's. Like I said most of my gigs I use the 15's because I don't want that sub to annoy older people but personally I like the 18 more but it is heavy BUT..... it is built extremely well unlike the EKX subs.
What is your opinion of the Yamaha’s subwoofers for live sound on a medium (around 500 people venue)? Having bass and drums
When you say 500 people venue do you mean A) 500 people venue with realistically 300 guests and 80 people on the dance floor and everyone else in the background? or do you mean B) 500 people venue with 500 actual people there all listening and dancing to a band or DJ?
@@Sash77....oldmanradic 500 people listening to a live band
@@acamilloni IMO the 15 inch subs wouldn't be enough. I'd definitely get at least one DXS 18 an a pair of 15 inch tops minimum but that still wouldn't be ideal. 500 people watching a band I'd get a pair of DXS 18's and 4 x top speakers and I'd space out the 4 speakers like I did towards the end of the video. There's a big difference in gear you need for 300 people to 500 unfortunately. If I was gonna use the DXS 15's I'd want 3 of them side by side in the middle. A pair of DXS18's would put a huge smile on your face along with the 4 top speakers IMO
@@acamilloni 500 people you're talking at least 2x18's and 4x15 tops. You can with something smaller, but you're going to have the smaller system cranked on max all night and that's not something you want to do if you care about the longevity of your speakers.
Remember, you can rent speakers for larger gigs, you dont have to buy speakers.
Which has more power, the Yamaha or the Electrovoice?
By far the Yamaha all the info about how rubbish electro voices specs are found in the video👍
Im a underground Dj playing Techno,psy and deeper tones and progressive. I started Djing during the pandemic because all clubs and bars was shut down.
I just bought 2 x Yamaha DXR15" and 2 x Yamaha DXS15" subs for up comming outdoor partys in 2024.
I now have them rigged up in the liveingroom. But they are to loud and its to much power to be used at home.
The sound from the tops are so clear that i was a bit surprised when i first got them. And now when i added the 2 subs its even better.
Wow im so happy about my Yamaha setup 🙏
I have a few short clips and videos on my other channel and a few mix tapes if anyone are intereseted. The gigs i play at there do we use Mackie 18" tops and subs just to point that out.
@DjItchyNipples
yeah cool man. I find with the DXR 15's they are a touch bright so on the mixer i'll set the hi's for both channels to 11 o'clock to take out a tough of hi's but other than that they are fantastic speakers for the price
