Great Cabinet Design Means Accurate Sound

The Yamaha HS7 Active Studio Monitor is the happy middle child in the much-acclaimed HS line of powered speakers! The price point delivers a power rating of 95 watts, which puts the HS7 right between the HS5 and HS8 in terms of output power. Yamaha's all-proprietary design yields an exceptional tonal response and presents dynamic fidelity sufficient for the demands of a professional mixing session. The HS7 monitors are of true bi-amp design, and drive all the way to maximize output without clipping or distortion while preserving accurate dynamic ratios. Like the rest of the HS line, the HS7s benefit from revolutionary cabinet design. For inspiration in rethinking the HS7's housing, Yamaha drew on their 100 justly celebrated years of piano design. And from their pianos, they developed a three-way mitered-joint technique for these cabinets. This makes them not only minimally cross-resonant but extremely durable as well.

Please Speak Clearly

The attractive white 6.5-inch cone woofer and 1-inch black dome tweeter in the HS7s sit in a uniquely redesigned mounting ring that eliminates any undesirable vibrations. Each monitor also employs an extra-large magnet, creating a more uniform flux field. This yields a smooth response and greater dynamic capability over a wider frequency range. The magnets themselves are selected to provide the greater possible fidelity in the low-end frequencies, which is typically the hardest range to manage when mixing audio. The tweeter frames in turn are built extra thick, minimizing interference in the high end.

True Bi-amp Power

The HS7's 2-way bi-amplified design means that the woofer and tweeter are powered by separate amps. This eliminates undesirable interaction between the units, and any signal distortion resulting from phase difference.

Perfect for Surround Sound Mixing

5.1 and 7.1 surround systems are continuing to become more commonplace in public and private music listening settings. The HS7 is a premium solution for building out your surround mixing station. Combine a set of four or six HS7s with a single HS10W subwoofer and you'll be ready to start mixing multi-channel!

Here, There, or Anywhere

Apart from the design of a monitor, the single greatest factor influencing accuracy is the room where they're located. Room size, shape, and surface materials all affect what you're hearing during playback. The HS7 gives you Room Control, Mid EQ, and High Trim controls for good room-matching. You'll tweak the Room Control setting to compensate for any unnaturally exaggerated low end. Then you'll use Mid EQ and High Trim switches to get your mids and highs in the right place.
