Short answer: the dB Technologies Opera Reevo 210. It ranks #10 of 42 10-inch pa speakers by sound quality, rated 3.9/5, at $739; the Yamaha DXR10mkIII ranks #12, rated 3.8/5, and costs $899.99, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
What the dB Technologies Opera Reevo 210 does well: A powerful coaxial PA speaker with two 10 inch woofers for deep bass and very wide coverage, usable as a wedge or on a pole. The tradeoff: A 3.3dB reference band and 0.637 listening-window deviation give it a less even tonal balance than most 10-inch rivals.
The case for the Yamaha DXR10mkIII: A light, loud 10 inch powered PA speaker with updated onboard DSP and Bluetooth control, a dependable choice for gigs. Watch for: The low-quality local data is truncated and cannot produce a preference score, so its tonal advantage over the proven Yamaha DXR10mkII is unconfirmed.
Buy the dB Technologies Opera Reevo 210. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Yamaha DXR10mkIII and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
