Complete with Speakers, Powered Mixer, and Cables:

High-performance 2-way Passive Speakers: The Yamaha STAGEPAS 500 speakers have 10 woofers and 1 high-frequency units. Delivering clean, high-quality sound.

Detachable 10-channel Powered Mixer: The 10- Channel 250W + 250W Yamaha Stagepas 500 mixer can be used either while installed in the speaker compartment of detached for easy positioning and access.

Convenient Accessory Compartment: Conveniently store cables, microphones, and other small necessities in the speaker accessory compartment for a truly streamlined traveling system.

Optional Microphone Stand Adapter: The Yamaha STAGEPAS mixer can be mounted on a microphone stand using the optional BMS-10A adaptor for convenient positioning at any height.

Two Band EQ and Reverb Built-In: Built-in equalization and reverb add the finishing touches to your sound.

10 Channels and 250W + 250W Power for More Sources and Larger Venues:

Dual 250-Watt amplifiers: Two 250-watt power amplifiers can fill surprisingly large clubs or rooms, or project your sound over a considerable distance outdoors. The class-D power amplifier has been painstakingly designed to deliver superior sound quality as well as reliability in a remarkably compact unit.

Versatile 10-channel Mixer with Monitor and Record Outputs: If there are more members in your band than the Yamaha STAGEPAS 300s 8 input channels can handle, or you simply have a lot of sources to mix, the Yamaha STAGEPAS 500 gives you 10 input channels in all: four mono microphone/line inputs and three stereo line inputs. The additional stereo channel can used for either a stereo or mono source. In addition to the main speaker outputs the mixer has line outputs that can be used to connect additional powered speakers for monitoring, and to send the mixer's output to a recording device.

Phantom Power for High—performance Condenser Microphones:
The Yamaha STAGEPAS 500 mixer features switchable phantom power for the four microphone/line inputs. This lets you use high-performance phantom-powered condenser microphones in situations where you want the extended, natural response they provide.

Built-in Channel Compression/Limiting: Channels 1 and 2 feature LIMIT/COMP switches that let you apply either limiting or compression to those channels. Limiting can be useful to prevent input overload and distortion with sources that have a wide dynamic range, while compression can add punch to vocals, bass, guitar, and other sources while smoothing out the sound and helping it to ride better in the mix.

2-band Channel EQ and Reverb: Like the Yamaha STAGEPAS 300 mixer, the Yamaha STAGEPAS 500 mixer has 2-band EQ controls on each channel, as well as REVERB switches on channels 1 through 4. A separate REVERB level control adjusts the reverb mix.

Other Features:

XLR and phone-jack inputs on mono channels, and phone-jack and RCA pin- jack inputs on stereo channels allow connection to a wide range of sources.
MIC/LINE switches select microphone or line level input matching for channels 1 through 4.
Auto Limiter prevents overload damage to power amplifier and speakers.

For Singers: The built-in high-quality reverb is indispensable for great vocal sound, and on the Yamha STAGEPAS 500 system the LIMIT/COMP switch can help to deliver smooth, punchy vocal sound.

For Instrumentalists: The Yamaha STAGEPAS mixer has more than enough input capability to directly handle a range of instruments from electric-acoustic guitars to electronic keyboards.

For Speech: The "SPEECH" mode optimizes the system settings for maximum clarity with speech. Of course, background music from a CD player or other source can be mixed in with the spoken performance.

For Bands: Multiple microphone inputs make the Yamaha STAGEPAS systems a good choice for band rehearsals or performances. MSR100 powered monitors (sold separately) can be added for monitoring.
