By the way, the Bose F1 Model 812 allows for neatly tucking the cables in its stand, and thus easily keeping a cluttered setup at bay. This only means that it’s perfect for a small home studio or venues where keeping it clean matters.

ION Audio Tailgater

Some DJ speakers look quite ordinary, and then there are also those that look truly extraordinary such as the ION Audio Tailgater!

Indeed, this is one of the most feature-packed speakers of today.

Yamaha DXR15

The Yamaha DXR15 looks like a full-fledged stage speaker because of its size and weight — it is 27 inches tall and tips the scale at 48 lbs. That’s okay because inside this behemoth is a 1,110-watt driver that allows you to be heard by everyone at a large venue. And because it’s from Yamaha, you can rest assured that the sound quality can impress even at higher volumes. It’s also DPS controlled, by the way, for top-notch output and protection.

You can think of it as the ultimate music maker — it has dedicated stereo channels for your CD player, MP3 player, smartphone and even keyboards. To see to it that things sound great, the manufacturer has thrown in an auto equalization feature to make sure that any adjustment that you make won’t result in the wreckage of the rest of the frequencies. It’s quite evident that the Mackie SRM150 is designed with a newbie DJ in mind.

Alto TS310

Tweaking the sound is made really easy by Bluetooth connectivity — you can make the necessary adjustments using your smartphone or tablet from a distance. What we particularly love about the Turbosound iP1000 is that it can be easily dismantled for transporting.

Yamaha DBR12

Despite looking like a professional stage speaker, the Yamaha DBR12 actually comes with an affordable price tag. This is quite unbelievable especially if things such as it’s a great performer and bears a trusted brand name are taken into account.
