The new special edition HS5 MP Set includes two HS5 monitors, both manufactured using a unique process and both utilising specially selected parts. The result is a pair of monitors, each as closely matched to one another as is possible.
Natural transitions across the board are standard because of the Yamaha HS8 transducers using large, carefully selected magnets and regulating magnetic response.
In fact, each component of the Yamaha HS8 monitor has been meticulously researched, designed and optimised to give you incredible signal reproduction.
A 1" dome tweeter extends the studio monitor's frequency range with high-resolution sound.
A thick wave guide is incorporated, virtually eliminating vibration, while this newly designed tweeter reproduces great sounding, distortion-free high end up to 30 kHz.
Taking care of the low end frequencies is a highly responsive, newly designed 8" woofer.
Along with the rest of its components, the large magnet in this 8" woofer has been painstakingly optimised.
Thanks to this attention to detail in design, you get incredible detail in your sound with defined low end and clear accurate mids with low distortion at any output level.
High Performance Amplifier
To give you consistent, high-resolution sound and incredibly flat response, the Yamaha HS8 monitor boasts a bi-amp design.
This gives you 75W LF and 45W HF for 120 watts of high-performance power amplification.
Furthermore, Yamaha have equipped the HS8 studio monitor with amplifiers that have been perfectly matched with the transducers for optimised for performance.
Low Resonance Design and Noise Reduction Technology The Yamaha HS8's enclosure is made from extremely dense MDF which dampens acoustic response and ensures accurate audio reproduction even when the speaker is pushed to extremes.
Using their incredible knowledge of piano design, with over 100 years experience, the HS8 powered monitor's cabinet is made with three-way mitred joint construction.
Utilising this architectural design anchors the corners of the cabinet, improving durability while eliminating unwanted resonance for purer sound.
Through intensive research and analysis, Yamaha have been able to equip the HS8 monitor with a specially designed port reducing audible noise up to 6dB.
Controls and Connectivity
Some simple controls are incorporated so you can quickly and easily get tailored audio from the Yamaha HS8.
A Room Control feature allows to you turn down exaggerated low end which can occur when monitors are placed close to walls.
There's also a High Trim feature which gives you more in-depth control over the high frequency response of the Yamaha HS8.
The HS8 studio monitor is also equipped with XLR and TRS phone jack inputs accepting balanced or unbalanced signals so you can connect a wide variety of sources.
Innovative Technology for Accurate Audio
Designed to raise the bar and set a new stand for studio monitors, the Yamaha HS8 gives you incredibly accurate audio.
