D&B Y-Series Package

The d&b audiotechnik Y-Series is a versatile family of loudspeakers engineered to deliver high-performance audio solutions for a wide range of applications. Designed with flexibility in mind, the Y-Series encompasses both line array and point source loudspeakers, catering to the needs of touring professionals and fixed installations alike. With consistent voicing across the series, these systems ensure seamless integration and uniform sound quality, regardless of the configuration.

At the core of the Y-Series are the Y8 and Y12 line array modules. Both are compact, 2-way passive designs featuring two 8-inch drivers in a dipole arrangement and a centrally mounted 1.4-inch compression driver with a waveguide. The Y8 offers an 80° horizontal dispersion, while the Y12 provides a wider 120° coverage, both maintaining consistent directivity down to 500 Hz. These modules are capable of delivering a high maximum SPL and have a frequency response suitable for a variety of mid- to large-scale sound reinforcement needs. Their lightweight design and integrated rigging hardware allow for efficient deployment in venues where speed and precision are important.

With strong SPL output and a wide frequency range, these point source speakers are ideal for fill applications or standalone use in smaller venues. Low-frequency extension is supported by the Y-SUB, a cardioid subwoofer with two 18-inch drivers, and the B6-SUB, an omnidirectional model. For installations, the Yi-Series variants offer the same performance with mounting options and finishes suited to permanent applications. The Y-Series is recognized for its clarity, control, and adaptability in both mobile and installed systems.

The Y-Series also offers installation-specific variants, known as the Yi-Series, which feature the same acoustic performance but with cabinets tailored for permanent installations. These versions come with different mounting hardware and finishes, including weather-resistant options, to meet the demands of various architectural and environmental conditions.​ Overall, the d&b audiotechnik Y-Series stands out for its adaptability, coherent sound signature, and ease of deployment, making it a reliable choice for audio professionals seeking high-quality reinforcement solutions across diverse application
