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.
Incorporating an advanced magnetic field design which regulates the flow of magnetic response, these transducers are able to offer beautifully natural and seamless transitions.
Each component of the Yamaha HS5 has been meticulously designed and optimised to give you the best possible signal reproduction across the audio spectrum.
An extremely efficient 1" dome tweeter extends the Yamaha HS5 powered monitor's frequency range while delivering incredible high-resolution sound.
Featuring a thick wave guide, vibration is drastically reduced so that the newly designed tweeter can fantastic high end up to 30 kHz, distortion-free.
Handling the low end, the Yamaha HS5 boasts a a newly designed 5" woofer that is incredibly responsive.
With its large, carefully selected magnet and painstakingly optimised components, the woofer produces beautifully defined bottom end along with clear and accurate mids with extremely low distortion at any output level.
High Performance Amplifier
The Yamaha HS5 active monitor utilises an amplifier which has been perfectly matched with its transducers for optimum performance.
Featuring a bi-amp design providing 45W LF and 25W HF, the HS5 monitor boasts high-performance 70W power amplification.
With dedicated amps for both the tweeter and woofer, the Yamaha HS5 studio monitor gives you consistent, high-resolution sound with amazingly flat response.
Low Resonance Design and Noise Reduction Technology
Even the cabinet of the Yamaha HS5 monitor has been specially designed to reduce resonance.
Using extremely dense MDF with a dampened acoustic response, the Yamaha HS5's enclosure allows for accurate sound reproduction even when the speaker is pushed to its limits.
Inspired by Yamaha's over 100 years of piano design experience, the Yamaha HS5 monitor enclosure also features a traditional three-way mitred-joint technique in its build.
This architectural design anchors the corners of the cabinet to significantly improve the durability of the enclosure while eliminating unwanted resonance that may colour your sound.
To further ensure the purest audio reproduction possible, the Yamaha HS5 also employs cutting edge noise reduction technology.
Through in-depth research and analysis, Yamaha have designed the perfect port in order to reduce audible noise up to 6dB.
Controls and Connectivity
The Yamaha HS5 powered studio monitor has two response controls so you can get the perfect sound to match the acoustics of your room.
First, there is the Room Control function which allows you to attenuate exaggerated low end which can occur when the speakers are placed near walls.
You also have a High Trim function available which gives you detailed control over the high frequency response.
Allowing you to connect a wide variety of sources to the Yamaha HS5 studio monitor, it comes equipped with XLR and TRS phone jack inputs which accept both balance or unbalanced signals.
Innovative Technology for Accurate Audio
Meticulously designed to set a new standard in audio monitoring, the Yamaha HS5 powered monitor boasts incredibly innovative technology.
