Open Box Yamaha HS3 3.5" Black Powered Studio Monitors (Pair) Level 2 197881347109

Since the 1970s, engineers, producers and creators of all types have trusted Yamaha when making their most important sonic decisions. The iconic white woofer found on Yamaha's nearfield reference monitors has become an industry staple on console meter bridges and in home studios alike. Enter the Yamaha HS3 studio monitor. Based on the distinctive midrange qualities of the famed NS-10, Yamaha's HS series of powered studio monitors built on the legacy of its legendary predecessors' reliability and introduced a host of new benefits to fulfill the needs of the modern studio. Now, Yamaha has taken things one step further with the HS3 to give audio lovers worldwide new, unfettered access to dependable, honest and accurate sound. Designed to be true to the original, these compact powered speakers come out of the box ready to seamlessly integrate into your existing setup. Featuring a classic black finish, these HS3s are the perfect complement to your studio aesthetic. With room control and high trim settings, professional- and consumer-level input connections and a compact footprint, these powerful and portable nearfield monitors were designed to help you bring out the best in your productions.

Meet the New Boss … Same as the Old Boss

Continuing the heritage of the famed Yamaha nearfield studio monitor, the HS3 includes everything you've come to know and love about classic Yamaha speakers. Honest and flat, the HS3's frequency response ranges from 70Hz–22kHz and makes an ideal sonic platform for you to base your most important decisions on. With a natural midrange, plus faithful high and low end, the HS3 won't lead you down the rabbit hole, but instead will offer you a true representation of your sound without coloration or enhancement. Featuring traditional white Yamaha 3.5" woofers, a .75" dome tweeter and a proprietary "Twisted Flare Port" for reduced air turbulence noise in the bass reflex port, (this provides extremely clear and accurate bass response for such a small speaker), your ears will find themselves right at home in front of these defined and trustworthy monitors.

Connection Is Everything

Modern problems require modern solutions, and the HS3s have you covered front and back. The rear panel of the HS3 is equipped with combo XLR/TS phone, RCA and stereo mini jacks to accommodate a wide range of consumer or professional equipment, such as computers, interfaces, mixers and electric instruments. On the front panel you'll find the most commonly used features, such as a power button, volume adjustment knob and headphone jacks for easy access, making trim adjustments and "apartment-friendly" monitoring options quick and within reach.
