Gearank Recommendation

The DXS12mkII appeared on our recommended list for PA Subwoofers in 1 edition from November 2019 until October 2020 when it was removed due to being out-ranked by other subs.

Yamaha DXS12mkII Overview

The DXS12mkII is a straightforward subwoofer that reinforces Yamaha's reputation for value for money and reliability.

It features a class D power amp rated at 800W (Continuous) that drives a 12" driver with 2.5" voice coil.

For a bit more low end oomph, it has built-in D-XSUB processing which helps extend the lows further via DSP.

There's even a cardioid mode for a more efficient projection of the sound.

Finally, it has selectable crossover points which include 80Hz, 100Hz and 120Hz.
