Yamaha HS5 - one piece

The HS5 is a 2-way active loudspeaker from Yamaha.

The Yamaha HS5 is aimed at musicians, producers and sound engineers in search of a reference product. reference product. Designed for transparent sound reproduction, it features a clean, detailed response with no artificial coloration. This approach guarantees accurate mixing, enabling users to fine-tune their productions with confidence.

Monitoring without compromise

Unlike loudspeakers that flatter certain frequencies, the Yamaha HS series focuses on absolute neutrality. absolute neutrality. Inspired by the legendary NS-10M, this loudspeaker is in keeping with Yamaha's tradition of delivering authentic, true-to-source sound.

Designed to suit small to medium-sized studios, it features a bi-amplified system bi-amplified system and top-quality components, guaranteeing sound reproduction of the highest precision. Its compact size makes it ideal for home studios, recording studios and music production spaces with limited space.

Speakers for a neutral mix

The 5" woofer and 1" tweeter have been specially designed to minimize distortion and ensure a flat response. distortion and guarantee a flat, analytical response. Every detail of the mix is reproduced with precision, delivering a clear, balanced sound.

The HS5's 1" dome tweeter extends high frequencies up to 30 kHz, ensuring ultra-detailed treble reproduction. The custom-designed waveguide reduces unwanted resonances and optimizes sound dispersion.

Unlike some speakers that artificially boost bass, the HS5 delivers precise, punchy precise, punchy bass, without distortion or exaggeration. Its Class D amplifier ensures linear reproduction of the lower end of the spectrum, for a truly reliable mix. Each driver is optimized for stable performance, even at high volumes. volume.

Perfectly designed for the studio environment

A cabinet resistant to parasitic resonance

The cabinet is made of high-density MDF, a rigid material that prevents any parasitic vibration. Yamaha has used its century of acoustic design expertise to guarantee pure, distortion-free sound reproduction. pure, distortion-free sound reproduction.

Advanced noise reduction

The bass-reflex port is designed to minimize air turbulence and internal vibrations. and internal vibrations. This technology reduces unwanted noise by up to 6 dB, ensuring clean, interference-free sound reproduction.

Adjustment controls to suit your space

Every studio has its own acoustic characteristics. The HS5 offers you two essential settings:

• ROOM CONTROL: attenuates exaggerated bass when the speaker is placed against a wall.
• HIGH TRIM: adjusts the high frequencies to fine-tune the sound to your environment.

With these options, the user can optimize listening for a precise mix in any room. whatever the room.

Our experts' opinion:

• A truly neutral sound, very similar to the old NS10s. No frequency is artificially artificially amplified, enabling precise mixing that can be transposed to other listening systems.
• Detail reproduction is impressive, with every subtlety of the mix perceptible, making it a reliable monitor for fine-tuning productions.
• The power of the amplification is well calibrated, even in confined spaces, without risk of prolonged hearing fatigue.
• Its price makes it an affordable option for those looking to invest in a quality product without blowing their budget.
