I am seeking assistance choosing between the following two powered speakers that I will be using with my Korg Pa5x Keyboard, A&H CQ-18T digital mixer, and Sennheiser E945 microphone. I have a good sound output from the Pa5x and wanted to ensure it's projected/amplified as such!


Yamaha DZR12
https://usa.yamaha.com/products/proaudio/speakers/dzr_dxs_xlf/index.html

JBL SRX812P
https://jblpro.com/en-US/products/srx812p


Hoping someone has heard/experienced both models that can provide a direct 1-to-1 comparison in terms of sound quality.
Which of the two provides has the most natural clean (and flat) sound? Clear Highs, Mids and Lows - without boosting any of them.
Based on the speaker specifications, which two speakers will be “louder” and will provide a better output coverage?

Thank you for your assistance!

If you are performing Live on stage for 100-500 guests, I recommend getting a system like the Bose or LD Systems Maui system with Line Array and sub-woofer.

I recently wandered into a large PA demonstration room. Although I am almost certain the JBL SRX812P was not present in the large lineup display, what impressed me the most were the Yamaha DZR12 and DZR10. I was interested to see how they compared to my 2.1 system, which consists of QSC K10.2 + Sub (recently sold). There was no doubt about it, they really did shine and outclassed everything in this demonstration room with many well-known brands. Nothing in this room could touch them.

If I were in the market for a new PA (which I am not at the moment), the Yamaha DZR line of PA speakers would be at the top of my list.

Thank you for this information. Interestingly, I find that those who purchased the JBL SRX812P did so without even demoing (or willing to demo) the Yamaha... I don't understand why they wouldn't...
