An Excellent, Space-saving Studio Monitor Pair

The Yamaha HS3 is an economical studio monitor with top-notch sound and an eye-grabbing NS-style look. This space-saving powered speaker boasts a bi-amplified, bass-reflex design with a 3.5-inch cone woofer and a 0.75-inch dome tweeter, yielding an impressive 70Hz–22kHz frequency response. You'll get great use out of the HS3's flexible array of input connectors, and its Room Control and High Trim controls make tailoring the monitor to your room a piece of cake. The HS3 also includes anti-slip feet, ensuring that once you position it on your desk or stand, it will stay put. Thanks to the Yamaha HS3, content creators with limited space won't have to skimp on the sound quality of their studio monitors.

High-quality sound in a small footprint

The Yamaha HS3 proves that you don't need massive studio monitors to achieve high-quality sound. This 2-way powered speaker brandishes a superior bi-amplified bass-reflex design with a 3.5-inch cone woofer and a 0.75-inch dome tweeter. With a set of HS3s in your studio, you can expect a 70Hz–22kHz frequency response, and once you learn your way around these studio monitors, you'll find that your mixes will translate exceptionally well to other listening environments.

Loaded with studio-friendly features

Here at Sweetwater, we're impressed with the features Yamaha baked into the diminutive HS3. Its Room Control switch allows you to tailor its low-frequency response, centered around 500Hz, to your listening environment — an essential for rear-ported speakers like the HS3. You also get a High Trim switch, centered around 2kHz, for customizing the speaker's high-frequency response. The HS3 also accommodates XLR/TRS combo, RCA, and stereo mini input connections, allowing you to use it with a wide range of sound sources.

The legacy continues

Great monitors! Just what I expected from Yamaha! I already own a set of hs5's and 8's and these hs3's are no slouch's they are chips off the old block. Excellent ! Considering a pair of hs4's for the office.
