Yamaha HS8 - PA, powered studio monitor speaker for DJs and performers, in black

Product Information

Ultra-responsive woofers allow the HS Series speakers to produce a well-defined bottom-end at any output level.

HS8 feature two response controls with detailed settings that allow them to adapt to the surface acoustics of rooms of varying shape and size. The new transducers deploy Yamaha's advanced magnetic field design to more efficiently regulate the flow of magnetic response, contributing significantly to the purity of the sound. Yamaha’s iconic HS speakers have been around since the 70s and have set a standard in the industry by which others are measured. Yamaha’s speaker engineering team have examined, then optimized, every aspect that has contributed to making these monitors the most trusted in the business.Beginning with the legendary NS-10M, and continuing with the MSP and previous HS Series, this new lineup shares a design philosophy that emphasizes sonic purity without any coloring or alternation of the original sound. At realistic mixing levels, they are more than up to the job, and I’ve never felt the need to raise the level control. These transducers utilise an advanced magnetic field design that regulates the flow of magnetic response to provide seamless, natural sonic transitions. The HS 8s are a high-performance bi-amplified system consisting of a 1" tweeter and an 8" woofer, driven by separate 45 W and 75 W amplifiers and housed in neatly crafted bass-reflex cabinets.

The quality of the sound recording or sound mixing will be ideal only if the acoustics of the given room are optimal, free of reflections and distortions.But it has even found its way into professional studios and mobile workstations as a secondary monitor. The utilization of this state-of-the-art technology allows HS8 studio monitors to meet the demands of more strict professional production environments. Switches offer high frequency control and room control so the amplified sound can be adjusted to cater for the aborbstion of the room and the positioning of the speakers in the room to make sure the resulting sound is as natural as possible. Yamaha’s HS8 studio monitor delivers the flat, high-resolution sound and features which have made the series a best-seller, including versatile Room Control filters, multiple connectivity options and a brand new enclosure that prevents unwanted vibrations from colouring your audio. Each speaker is constructed from a dense MDF material to provide superior acoustic clarity and response.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.The highs are very detailed but not overly bright the mids are open accurate and fast and the lows are very punchy, dynamic and tightly controlled all the way down to 40Hz and below. A musician, occasional producer and sound engineer, other hobbies include software programming, web development, long walks and occasional DIY. Yamaha engineers have designed and produced new transducers that deliver exceptionally clear, natural and detailed sound.

I think electronic music sounds the best on these, even though metal and hard rock also sounds great.By combining acquired knowledge and expertise with state-of-the-art sound technologies, Yamaha's speaker engineering team have examined, then optimised, every aspect that has contributed to making these monitors the most trusted in the business.
