Short answer: the RCF ART 910-A. It ranks #11 of 39 10-inch pa speakers by sound quality, rated 3.9/5, at $799; the Yamaha CZR10 ranks #32, rated 3.2/5, and costs $814, so there is little reason to consider the other one.
The RCF ART 910-A is the better-sounding pick. The 10-inch model of RCF’s ART 9 line, built on the same 2,100W bi-amplifier, 1.75” voice coil compression driver and FiRPHASE/Bass Motion Control tuning as the measured RCF ART 912-A and RCF ART 932-A. Watch for: No independent measurements yet, so it can’t be compared with ranked PA speakers.
Why pick the Yamaha CZR10: The passive version of the measured Yamaha DZR10, with a 10” woofer and a 2” voice coil compression driver in a plywood cabinet with 90° x 60° coverage. The tradeoff: No independent measurements yet, so it can’t be compared with ranked PA speakers.
Buy the RCF ART 910-A. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Yamaha CZR10 and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
About the ratings: neither speaker has been measured yet, so both ratings are estimated from measured siblings and predecessors (likely ranges: RCF ART 910-A 3.6 to 4.2; Yamaha CZR10 2.8 to 3.6). Treat this verdict as provisional.

RCF ART 910-A: $799.00 Estimated Amazon eBay
Same family: the RCF ART 912-A (larger model, rated 4.1/5), the RCF ART 932-A (larger model, rated 4.2/5), the RCF ART 915-A (larger model, estimated 3.8/5), the RCF ART 935-A (larger model, rated 3.9/5) and the RCF ART 945-A (larger model, rated 4.4/5).
Pros: The 10-inch model of RCF’s ART 9 line, built on the same 2,100W bi-amplifier, 1.75” voice coil compression driver and FiRPHASE/Bass Motion Control tuning as the measured RCF ART 912-A and RCF ART 932-A. RCF rates it at 130dB peak with 100° x 60° coverage and bass to 50Hz, and the fanless amplifier keeps it quiet on stage.
Cons: No independent measurements yet, so it can’t be compared with ranked PA speakers. Its 10-inch woofer gives up some low end to the 12-inch and 15-inch ART 9 models, so it suits vocals and smaller rooms or use with a subwoofer.

Yamaha CZR10: $814.00 Passive Estimated B&H Photo Video eBay
Same family: the Yamaha DZR10 (smallest powered model, ranked higher, rated 3.4/5), the Yamaha DZR12 (powered model, rated 3.9/5), the Yamaha DZR15 (powered model, rated 4/5), the Yamaha DZR315 (largest powered model, rated 3.8/5), the Yamaha CZR12 (larger passive model, estimated 3.6/5) and the Yamaha CZR15 (larger passive model, estimated 3.7/5).
Pros: The passive version of the measured Yamaha DZR10, with a 10” woofer and a 2” voice coil compression driver in a plywood cabinet with 90° x 60° coverage. Yamaha rates it at 700W handling, 127dB maximum SPL and bass reaching 43Hz, and its PX and PC-D amplifiers carry a dedicated processing preset for it.
Cons: No independent measurements yet, so it can’t be compared with ranked PA speakers. It needs an external amplifier and speaker processing to match the powered DZR, which has its FIR-X tuning built in. It costs about as much as the powered model before the amplifier.
