Short answer: the FBT ProMaxX 110A. It ranks #6 of 42 10-inch pa speakers by sound quality (rated 4.1/5) at $629 and is still sold new; the Yamaha DXR10mkII ranks #13 (rated 3.8/5) and is discontinued, so it is only an option used. The Yamaha DXR10mkII’s replacement, the Yamaha DXR10mkIII, is rated 3.8/5 at $899.99.
The FBT ProMaxX 110A is the more accurate option. A light, affordable 10 inch PA speaker with even mids and treble, plenty of power, and easy DSP presets on a screen. Its measured preference score, a predictor of how neutral it sounds, is 2.90 against 2.30 for the Yamaha DXR10mkII. The catch: Bass rolls off early, at 90Hz for -3dB and about 68Hz for -10dB, so it needs a subwoofer for dance music or full-band use.
The Yamaha DXR10mkII is the deeper-bass pick. A proven, easy to set up 10 inch PA workhorse with a flexible input section and simple processing presets. Its bass reaches about 73Hz before falling 3dB, against 90Hz for the FBT ProMaxX 110A. Watch for: It lacks app control or Bluetooth audio found on some newer competitors, and its measured preference sits mid-pack for this ranking.
Buy the FBT ProMaxX 110A. It is rated higher for sound quality; the Yamaha DXR10mkII is no longer sold new.
