Easy-to-use Onboard 2-Channel Mixer

DHR Series speakers have two input channels. CH1 has a combo jack that accepts both XLR and TRS Phone allowing for either Mic or Line level input signals. CH2 offers two input options; a combo jack that accepts XLR or TRS Phone, and a pair of RCA pin Jacks for input from CD players or other stereo line-level sources.

The onboard mixer allows you to select either CH1+2 MIX to mix the signal of CH1 and CH2, or CH1 THRU to pass the signal from CH1 only.

Dual-Angle Pole Mount Socket (DHR15, DHR12)

Depending on the venue, sometimes your mix can fall prey to low ceilings or other room attributes that can impede a clear, even mix and detract from the audience's listening experience significantly. The DHR15 and DHR12's pole mount socket offers two positions - 0° or -7° - to direct the acoustic energy away from reflective surfaces and onto your audience where it belongs.
