Description

What is it that makes one portable PA system stand out amongst the rest?Sound quality and output power? Flexible yet simple operation? Portability?Definitely all of the above and MORE. With the new STAGEPAS 1K mkII Yamaha’s primary focus was to design a completesound system that delivers professional quality sound despite a very simplesetup and operation process that allows users to focus on what matters most— their performance.

J-Curve Slim Line Array

The high-frequency speaker array is comprisedof 10 small-diameter 1.5″ speakers. By adoptinga J-curve array configuration, the high-frequencyunit achieves vertical coverage of 30 ° across aspan of 170 °. With such a long, 10-driver arraydesign the STAGEPAS 1K mkII can deliver clear,high quality sound consistently over longerdistances, projecting uniform, high-qualitysound from the front to the rear of the audience.

Class-leading 12-inch “compact” subwoofer

Despite housing a 12-inch speaker unit that isthe largest in its class, the STAGEPAS 1K mkIIboasts the smallest cabinet on the market for asubwoofer of this size and power.By incorporating Yamaha’s own Twisted FlarePort™ technology to reduce port wind noisethat can occur with compact bass-reflexsubwoofers, the low-end output is maximized,producing very deep, powerful, distortion-freebass.

1100W amplifier

Also at the top of its class for output power,the 1100W Class-D amplifier module is capableof delivering an impressive 125 dB SPL fromthe deceptively compact speaker cabinet. Andjust as importantly, Yamaha has leveraged theirdecades-long experience as a manufacturerof professional PA products, and innovatorof related technologies to ensure that withgreat power comes great stability, and that theSTAGEPAS 1K mkII maintains the same accurate,superior-quality sound even at high output.

Digital mixer with versatile input

With outstanding flexibility for a PA system ofthis size, the 5-channel digital mixer featuresthree channels of mono microphone/line inputsand stereo inputs, with two of the mono inputchannels equipped with Hi-Z connectivity fordirect input of acoustic-electric guitars andother instruments. In addition to Phone and1/8″ mini jacks, the stereo connections supportplayback with Bluetooth devices as well as awide range of input sources from instruments toCDs, PCs and smartphones.

Professional control with a single knob

STAGEPAS 1K mkII comes equipped with awealth of sound shaping functions, including1-knob EQ for optimized multi band EQsetting, industry standard SPX reverb, and the“Mode” control for master output compressionsettings that match various applicationssuch as “Speech” or “Music.” Each of thesefunctions can be set via a single knob, and havesimplified many of the tough tasks like EQ andcompression to get you great sound fast.
