If you've ever put together a high-performance sound
system you know that it involves careful amplifier and speaker matching and
configuration. Yamaha has taken care of that so you can get directly to great
sound without the usual complications. The MSR400 powered speaker can be used
alone or in combination with the MSR800W powered subwoofer to build any sound
reinforcement system from modest to massive. They look great, too! In fact, they
are so attractive that they can be placed as-is in many permanent installations
without requiring any cosmetic cover-up. And, of course, they're more than
rugged enough for demanding tour applications as well.

Powered loudspeakers for
matched components without the hassle
Whether for use on the road or in
permanent installations, MSR400 powered speakers offer numerous advantages over
separate components. The most obvious is that you don't need separate external
amplifiers or the extra connections they require - you can plug your mixer's
outputs directly into the speaker inputs. In a modest-size system this alone can
eliminate an entire rack of amps. But there are sonic advantages as well.
Optimum matching of amplifiers and speakers involves much more than simple
impedance figures, and can be a formidable engineering task given the vast
number of choices available. In the Yamaha MSR400 and MSR800W sub, the internal amplifiers have been ideally
mated to their respective speakers in every way possible, delivering
reproduction quality that only such stringent matching can
achieve.
Clear, clean highs and mids plus full bass
The MSR400s
feature punchy bass and exceptionally clear midrange that delivers vocals with
outstanding quality. For maximum impact, add an MSR800W subwoofer to take care
of the ultra-lows so the audience will hear - and feel - the full scope of your
music. Add as many pairs of MSR400s as you need used for a scalable main system
or stage monitors.
Bi-amped system with phase-accurate crossover
design
The MSR400 is a bi-amplified 2-way system, featuring 400 watts
maximum burst power that drives the 12" cone woofer and 1.75" compression
driver. Frequency division is accomplished prior to the power amplifiers via a
line-level electronic crossover. This eliminates the problems with loss,
distortion, and phase that are normally unavoidable in conventional passive
crossover networks. Another advantage of the MSR400 system is that power can be
optimally assigned to the low-frequency and high-frequency drivers for optimum
efficiency as well as smooth, natural balance across the entire audio
spectrum.
Connect almost any source without fear!
The MSR400
accepts nominal input levels ranging from -36 dB to +4 dB, meaning that you can
directly connect any source from microphones to professional line-level gear.
Three parallel-connected connectors are provided - two balanced XLR-type
connectors and one balanced phone jack - that can be used as either inputs or
parallel outputs. The MSR400 also features an input level control for matching
with the source signal. Low and high EQ controls can be used to adjust the
respective bands over a plus-or-minus 3dB range.
Easy to set up alone
or with sub
Speaker placement is as much a performance issue as it is a
convenience and aesthetic issue. Proper placement will give you optimum sound as
well as coverage while being as unobtrusive as possible. Of course, the more
options you have the better. The MSR400 can be stacked or pole-mounted (there's
even a pole-mount hole provided on the companion MSR800W Powered Woofer). And
the MSR400 is flyable so you can benefit from the unrivalled coverage and
positioning precision that only ceiling suspension can provide.
