Product details
A Compact 10-Inch Passive Speaker Built for Fixed Installations
The Yamaha CHR10 is a 2-way, bass-reflex passive loudspeaker with a 10-inch woofer and a 1.4-inch HF compression driver. Yamaha designed it for fixed installations, combining customised transducers with the same high-grade plywood construction used in its high-end CZR Series.
It is rated at 175 W noise, 350 W program and 700 W peak into 8 Ω, with a frequency range of 55 Hz–20 kHz (−10 dB). A rotatable horn, rigging points and an optional U-bracket give it the flexibility to suit a wide range of installation environments.
Key Features
10-inch woofer with a 1.4-inch compression driver
The 10-inch cone woofer uses a 2-inch voice coil, while the HF compression driver has a 1.4-inch diaphragm on a 1-inch throat. Both use ferrite magnets, and the crossover sits at 2.5 kHz.
Rotatable 90° x 60° horn
Nominal coverage is 90° horizontal by 60° vertical, and the HF horn can be rotated so the cabinet can be installed horizontally or vertically. The optional UB-DXRDHR10 U-bracket allows wall or ceiling mounting in either orientation.
Plywood cabinet with durable polyurea finish
The bass-reflex enclosure is built from plywood with a polyurea coating for a robust, scratch-resistant black surface. It measures 305 x 494 x 300 mm and weighs 13.7 kg.
Ready to rig, mount or put on a stand
There are rigging points on the top (two) and rear (one) for M10 x 30–50 mm eyebolts, a 35 mm pole socket on the bottom and a top handle.
Two speakON connectors wired in parallel
Two speakON NL4MP connectors are wired in parallel. Sensitivity is 93 dB SPL (1 W, 1 m), with a calculated peak SPL of 122 dB.
FAQ
Q. Does it need an amplifier?
Yes. It is a passive speaker with no built-in amplifier. Yamaha states that its DSP-equipped amplifiers and other compatible signal processors have dedicated speaker processor tuning settings for the CHR Series. Our team can help you choose a suitable amplifier for its 8 Ω load.
Q. Is the U-bracket included?
No. Yamaha lists the UB-DXRDHR10 U-bracket as an optional accessory. Ask our team if you need one with your speakers.
Q. Who is the CHR10 best suited to?
Yamaha designed the CHR10 for fixed installations where a compact cabinet, a rotatable horn and rigging options matter. For a larger main speaker, see the CHR15; for a stage wedge, see the CHR12M floor monitor.
Q. Can it be used on a speaker stand?
Yes. It has a 35 mm pole socket on the bottom of the cabinet for standard speaker stands.
