Yamaha will unveil today at Musikmesse the new HS active monitor generation, with three 5", 6.5" and 8" monitors and an 8" subwoofer.
Named HS5, HS7 and HS8, these new Yamaha monitors will replace the HS50M and HS80M from which they retain the very distinctive white woofer ; note that a new intermediary 6.5" model has been added along with a 150W subwoofer called HS8S.
Each HS active monitor are bass-reflex two-way bi-amplified models equipped with a 1" tweeter and Room Control and High Trim controls. The HS8S subwoofer features high and low-pass filters and a phase switch.
New on all the monitors, the shielding has disappeared, Yamaha explains that this increases the magnet efficiency.
