Cabinet designs optimized for a range of audio environments

The CHR Series features a comprehensive lineup of loudspeakers with cabinets optimized to meet the demands of specific applications.

CHR10 and CHR12 are equipped with rotating horns and a dedicated U-bracket for use in fixed installations and utility, while CHR12M and CHR15M feature a coaxial compression driver for improved clarity and smoother frequency response for floor monitoring. The series is rounded out by CHR15, which features rigging points for use in fixed installations. CHR12 and CHR15 also feature dual-angle pole sockets, allowing them to be used as temporary main speakers for sound reinforcement.

Custom Designed Transducers

The high power output woofers deliver well-defined, powerful bass with minimal distortion, while the 1.4” precision compression driver* produces accurate mid-range and high frequencies.

A Rugged, Highly Portable Cabinet

The CHR series feature plywood enclosures like our acclaimed CZR loudspeakers to deliver outstanding durability and acoustic performance.

Intelligent processing to maximize system performance

When used in combination with Yamaha PX Series amplifiers or other compatible signal processors, CHR Series loudspeakers can take full advantage of dedicated speaker processor tuning settings. (*Supported firmware is Ver1.63 or later.)

Dual-Angle Pole Mount Socket (CHR15, CHR12)

Yamaha CHR15/CHR12: Dual-Angle Pole Mount Socket

Depending on the venue, sometimes your mix can fall prey to low ceilings or other room attributes that can impede a clear, even mix and detract from the audiences' listening experience significantly. The CHR15 and CHR12's pole mount socket offers two positions - 0° or -7° - to direct the acoustic energy away from reflective surfaces and on to your audience where it belongs.
