QSC K12.2 / EV ELX200-12P / YAMAHA DXR12 

They all seem to offer basically the same thing and I'm just wondering if any of these stand out among the others. If there is a good 12" top that I am not mentioning please advise and I will check it out.

Additionally, can someone give me an estimate on how many people 2 of these 12" tops could handle if I put a bunch of bass underneath them?

Thank you,
disco dust in my veins

i have used the ELX series and generally found them to perform very well

i am a big fan of martin F12 / F12+ but i assume you are looking for actives

I ended up buying a pair of the Yamaha DXR12s, they sound fantastic!

They do Sound good. A little bit on the lean side compared to ART732, but they have a nice smooth middle. Great for live performance 🙂

I have a set of DXR15s and have used them(over subs) for groups of up to 150-200ppl. These also get used for smaller groups of about 50ppl all on their own but those aren't demanding events. Yamaha has done a great job with these, no they aren't the end-all be-all in PA speakers but IMO they sound way better than a 15+1 box has any business doing.
