From Our Research Team:

All-In-One Sound Solution!

Compact in size but big in sound and versatile features, the Yamaha MSR100 2-way speaker packs a powerful sonic punch - making it ideal for a wide range of applications and almost anywhere in your stage setup.

Yamaha MSR100 Speaker at a Glance:
  • Mixer, power amp, and speaker system in one box
  • 100-watt power amp for plenty of volume
  • Versatile mixer and connections
  • Built-in EQ

Mixer, power amp, and speaker system in one box
The Yamaha MSR100 fills many sound reinforcement and stage monitor needs in one inexpensive, lightweight package. As a mixer, power amplifier, and speaker system combined in a single, compact unit, it's perfect for small events and club gigs. Mix in a CD player, rhythm machine and/or keyboard with your voice - all without the need of a separate mixer or power amplifier. And since it's made by Yamaha, the MSR100 provides the high-quality performance you need with exceptional ease-of-use and reliability.

High power, great sound
The 100-watt power amplifier built into the MSR100 delivers plenty of output, ensuring that you'll be heard with full dynamic range and clarity. This specially designed amplifier has been optimized for use with the speaker section of the MSR100 to give you the absolute clearest and cleanest sound possible.
An 8" custom woofer handles the low end, while a 1" pure titanium diaphragm compression driver delivers the high frequencies. The horn of the MSR100 provides a wide 90 x 40-degree sound dispersion for optimum audience coverage.

Versatile mixer and connections
A simple but effective mixer built into the rear of each unit provides 3 inputs with master EQ for precise sound control. The input 1 XLR connector accommodates almost any microphone or line input (with a -50dB/+4dB pad switch), while line sources can be connected by phone jack to the input 2 and input 3 connectors. This makes the MSR100 perfect for small events and club gigs.

Built-in EQ
Naturally, each MSR100 input has its own level control, with a Master Level control for overall output. A 2-band EQ - high and low - gives you further control over the final sound. A convenient CLIP indicator alerts you when the input signal is too high, letting you avoid distortion. For larger events, the MSR100's special LINK OUT jack can be used to connect multiple units and expand your sound coverage.

Big sound for a small, lightweight monitor

by Mike K from Austin, TX

Music Background: Drummer, Recording Engineer
I use this mostly as a personal monitor for local gigs.

It is so much lighter than any other monitor I have owned. I can easily grab it with one hand and carry something else in the ot... read more [+]her. it also fits very easily in my vehicle and as long as the PA has a monitor line-out, I don't have to worry about monitor amps, or speaker impedance matching - and I have local EQ control if I need it.

It gets loud enough that I have not had any problems hearing it. When testing it out I just connected an iPOD and was stunned at the low-frequency output this little guy was capable of - a lot better than I was expecting for an 8" speaker.

I've also used it as a PA system (for a small gathering) where we needed to just connect one mic so we could be heard above a crowd- worked perfectly. close [-]

Sweetwater Advice

Carson McClain
I own a pair of the Yamaha MSR400s, the MSR800 sub, and I just bought the MSR100 for monitoring at a local club. There is an outside patio area which is 25 feet away from the stage and there was no sound in that area, so I needed a solution that could be removed at the end of each night. The MSR100 was the right choice. It's lightweight , versatile for other purposes, and easy to set up. This is a very compact unit that could also be used at a coffee shop. It has four inputs and an EQ.
