Description
Since the 1970s, the iconic white woofer and distinctive sound of Yamaha’s near-field reference monitors have become an industry standard for a reason: their consistent, unerring accuracy. The latest HS Series loudspeakers have been designed to give you the most honest and accurate reference possible, providing an ideal sound platform to build on throughout the mixing process. By combining our years of studio knowledge and expertise with state-of-the-art analysis tools, Yamaha’s team of loudspeaker engineers have examined, then optimised, every aspect of the design to make these the most reliable loudspeakers on the market.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
– New transducers for surprisingly smooth response over a wide bandwidth range
– 1″ dome tweeter with a new, highly efficient design that considerably extends the usable frequency range and delivers superb high-resolution sound
– New ultra-sensitive woofers using large, carefully selected magnets, HS Series monitors produce low-distortion sound with a well-defined bottom end at any output level.
– Low-resonance speaker design to eliminate unwanted resonances and increase the accuracy of sound reproduction to its extreme limit
– Advanced noise reduction technology reduces audible noise by up to 6dB
