#28 Yamaha CXR10mkIII: $649.00 Passive Estimated B&H Photo Video eBay
Same family: the Yamaha DXR10mkIII (smallest powered model, ranked higher, rated 3.8/5), the Yamaha DXR12mkIII (powered model, rated 4.1/5), the Yamaha DXR15mkIII (largest powered model, rated 3.8/5), the Yamaha CXR12mkIII (larger passive model, estimated 3.8/5) and the Yamaha CXR15mkIII (larger passive model, estimated 3.5/5).
Pros: The passive version of the measured Yamaha DXR10mkIII, with the same 10” woofer, 1.75” voice coil compression driver, horn and port design. Yamaha rates it at 93dB sensitivity, 123dB maximum SPL and bass to 54Hz (-10dB) with 90° x 60° coverage, 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, for its rated response, speaker processing; the powered model has that built in. Without Yamaha’s preset its tonal balance depends on the amplifier’s EQ.
