The Yamaha DHR12M is a compact coaxial two-way bi-amp active loudspeaker featuring a 12-inch woofer and a 1.75-inch compression driver. The DHR12M incorporates the sophisticated feature set of Yamaha's brand-new DHR series into the ideal enclosure, making the speaker perfect for floor monitoring. 

The DHR12M is a tough and clear-sounding floor monitor with a 1000W amplifier and powerful new DSP technology. The DHR series has the same plywood enclosure as Yamaha's popular DZR series, which reduces vibrations from the drivers and allows your performers to hear themselves at their best.

Yamaha's FIR-X system, which uses cutting-edge new DSP technology, delivers seamless, dynamic linear phase FIR (finite infinite response) filters at the crossover frequency rather than the conventional crossovers found in other loudspeakers. This results in a clean, almost imperceptible crossover between the powerful 12-inch woofer and the bright, present coaxial compression driver while eliminating the all-too-common phase smear distortion that may muddy your venue's sound.

DSP with high precision

The new FIR-X system from Yamaha is only the beginning of the DSP features packed into this fantastic floor monitor. The D-CONTOUR is a dynamic, adaptive multi-band compressor that works to offer your stage performers with a vibrant but clear sound. D-CONTOUR will monitor the levels of certain frequency bands and adjust what it detects in real-time. There are two built-in modes: FOH/MAIN and MONITOR. FOH/MAIN is designed primarily to enhance low-frequency sounds to compensate for the loss of bass when using a flying or pole-mounted speakers. The MONITOR mode, on the other hand, is designed particularly for the DHR12M, attenuating low-frequency material so that performers on stage can hear themselves more clearly or engineers may verify monitor mixes with precision.

Delivering Consistent Power

As if D-CONTOUR and FIR-X were not there, Yamaha has expanded DSP technology in the DHR Series all the way down to the component level. Yamaha has developed a technique to push every power amplifier and transducer in the speaker's circuitry to its maximum operational output at all times by carefully and thoroughly testing every power amplifier and transducer in the speaker's circuitry. Using DSP, they guaranteed that each component performs optimally while never exceeding its limitations, delivering consistent power that you can rely on anywhere.

FIR-X DSP technology

The FIR-X DSP technology from Yamaha achieves unrivalled precision and clarity at driver crossover frequencies. Phase smear distortion is eliminated by employing linear phase Finite Infinite Response filters instead of typical minimum phase filters. FIR-high-quality X's converters provide a smooth, clean transition with no loss, sudden dips or spikes at crossover frequencies.

Amplification Efficiency

The Yamaha DHR Series is powered by high-efficiency Class-D amplifiers, ensuring unrivalled power behind both drivers at all times. With a maximum SPL output of 129dB, your performers will not miss even the most minor aspects of their performance.

Coaxial Compression Driver

The compression driver is extremely common, but the DHR12M takes a different approach. A coaxial design not only produces a crisp, airy high-end, but also a pleasant, warm mid-range rendition. And it's all done with precise time alignment and phase, so nothing gets lost and your high-end frequencies have the punch they need to cut through the mix.

Integrated Mixer

The DHR12M not only has jaw-dropping power and cutting-edge DSP, but it also has a two-channel mixer for regulated use. Two channels mean two combo connectors, but Channel 2 also has a set of stereo RCA jacks for stereo line-level input, as well as the option to sum both channels or bypass Channel 2 with the push of a button.
