From the legendary NS-10M to the MSP and then HS ranges, Yamaha continues the same quest: to reproduce the signal as it is. The second-generation HS7 extends this heritage with a refined tweeter, reworked filtering, and a stiffer cabinet. The result is a coherent listening point, a stable stereo image, and particularly reliable reproduction of the low-midrange, a crucial area for mix balance.
Designed for nearfield monitoring in home studios and project control rooms, the HS7 targets producers, beatmakers, and engineers seeking honest listening in medium-sized rooms. Its extended response and controlled directivity facilitate editing, sound design, and bass control without artificial reinforcement, enabling more confident EQ decisions.
Each driver has dedicated amplification (60 W for the woofer, 35 W for the tweeter) to optimize linearity and phase coherence. The frequency range from 43 Hz to 30 kHz provides a clear view of kick punch and cymbal "air," helping to align transients and brightness without excess.
The reinforced cabinet, careful assembly, and rear bass-reflex port drastically reduce unwanted vibrations. This improves clarity in the low end, with less "boominess" and a more stable sweet spot for judging dynamics and stereo width.
The XLR and 6.3 mm TRS balanced jack inputs ensure low background noise. The input level, High Trim (treble), and Room Control (bass attenuation) allow fine adjustment of the speaker to your room while preserving the neutrality that the HS series is known for.
