Description
Accurate Monitoring for Music Production
The Yamaha HS5 is a compact 2-way powered studio monitor designed for accurate, detailed nearfield monitoring. A 5-inch cone woofer and 1-inch dome tweeter are powered by a 70W bi-amplified system (45W LF + 25W HF), delivering a 54Hz–30kHz (-10 dB) frequency response for clear, balanced reproduction.
Rather than exaggerating the sound, the HS5 is engineered to provide an honest representation of your source material, making it well suited for recording, mixing, music production, editing and critical listening.
Tailored to Your Listening Space
Yamaha's Room Control and High Trim adjustments help optimize the monitor's response for different room environments and speaker placements. The carefully engineered bass-reflex enclosure helps deliver controlled low-frequency performance from its compact cabinet.
Balanced XLR and 1/4-inch TRS inputs provide flexible connectivity with audio interfaces, mixers and other professional audio equipment.
Compact, Professional Monitoring
Its compact footprint makes the HS5 particularly well suited to desktop and nearfield systems where space is limited but monitoring accuracy is important.
