All user reviews of 5/5 for the Yamaha MSP5

I've had the Yamaha HS50M, good speakers, but these one are CLEARLY better from any point of view: Impeccable finish, crystal-clear sound. They are small but weighty! They are perfect for a home studio, the best ones I've ever had. Right from the installation, I adopted them when I had some trouble with the HS50M.

SOUND

Sound is clear as crystal, it's a real treat. They distinguish themselves from the HS50M, which are pretty aggressive. These are very pleasant, I have finally found a set of speakers that satisfies me from all points of view. I ran a quick test this evening with the TotalMix of my RME UCX and it's fabulous, you can clearly hear the slightest change. I finally have the right speakers to mix, they have nothing to do with what I had up to now. Kudos for Yamaha for these speakers that transcend eras and trends.

OVERALL OPINION

I compared them to the 50M and they are obviously better, but the 50M are good speakers. On the other hand, they completely OUTCLASS the Prodipe P6, which are inaudible and much less precise in comparison. I did a test with an MSP5 on the left and a Prodipe P6 on the right and there's simply no comparison They are much smaller, but they have a superb sound and finish. It's a different ballgame altogether. Prodigious small speakers, I can hear things I couldn't hear before.

I say now, I'm not a sound engineer ... but advised amateur musician

These speakers are very robust, due to the structural metal grates covering HP, but also by anti "pop" protection at power on and off. (Really a big plus)

I had plugged into a mini mixer, a Mackie 402-VLZ3 which made very easy to use.

Of severe acute settings / are disposed at the rear to make small adjustments.

SOUNDS

Difficult to note neutrality because I'm not an expert, but in any case the return is very detailed in acute as in the grave

OVERALL OPINION

I had low end Behringer before, there is a world between ...

I find them a bit expensive, but it's really serious building level, it is a tank!

The only thing that can be a bit annoying is the on / off switch on the back, but it is the case on many speakers.

I highly recommend it.

The price / quality ratio remains excellent.
A short proximity monitoring they allowed me to make mixes for many years. This loyalty has helped me in the sound made listening and the end result that I wanted the most neutral.
I've also used in troubleshooting small sound.

SOUNDS

Curve sufficiently neutral response, perhaps slightly lower in the medium, but not enough to disturb the mix. Good clarity across the spectrum, good dynamics.

OVERALL OPINION

Purchased there at least 8 years, I think.
I'm making tracks with 4 or 5 other models.
What I like: To mix it enables high fidelity and neutrality.
A quality / good price.
I would do this NIOHC without hesitation.

Small, amplified, with entry into TRS or XLR, volume knob on the front, the grille HP, heavy duty construction therefore easily transportable.

These features allow me to use it as a studio monitor, of course, but also as a return of close on stage, seeing as the main sound system for small spaces (micro streaming music and vocals), as sound repetition (it fits in a backpack)

SOUNDS

The sound is very decent, a bit aggressive. Associated with Dynaudio BM6A it's been a couple interesting: if it sounds on my headphones and 2, it sounds almost everywhere.

OVERALL OPINION

I have since 1999. Good quality / price ratio. I would do this choice for the use I have described, I have not seen equivalent.

Anceintes compact amplifier and great brand.
Usage monitoring record
with a Soundcraft Spirit SX and Cubase

SOUNDS

Super vibrant and good frequency response up to about 70 Htz.
Very good stereo image.

OVERALL OPINION

I will do quick and easy. The MSP5 are currently the best monitoring speakers in their range. And you will see they are about to take over the NS10 as a forum for reference. However, without cabinet they can not be used for some music, this is why box Pipelines Limited by a yamaha!
My MSP5, I love them and not let anyone criticize them for the wrong reasons.
Thank you.

The MSP5 powered speakers are monitoring what I would call a very good value prix.En effect amplified the fact that they justify the price for professional studio monitors are very good speakers.

SOUNDS

A little low in the low frequencies they are very effective home studio in the response curve remains true across the spectrum does not show altered and remains consistent even if it is true that low frequencies are low.
Dynamics as it is a punchy but MSP5 are not really gifts, at least if your mix is ​​good on these enciente then you will be assured all will sue your mix

OVERALL OPINION

I use the MSP5 for about a year and I am satisfied pleinelment While it is true that this is not the meilluezrs enciente market m'enfin'm not millioniare plus.Comparé M-Audio has a few that flatters the spectrum in the low noite the MSP5 are free and leaves no real room for error.
Deja amplified these speakers are of value for money very well made and very suitable for heavy use in the studio that pro home studio and to play cds. I would strongly advise those enciente especially if your budget is not so easy as that, however large budgets for these enciente can be a good complement of a larger monitoring enciente such as 10 ns, which are very good enciente monitoring despite all the evil they said, and yes those who go down are those who can not get a good mix because believe me go out on a good mix on NS10 you that your mix will senstation everywhere

I had instructors blinds, small, powerful, prcis, solid neutral to cost my mixes in my room.
I branch out of my interface MOTU 828 MKII.
There is a +4 dB XLR between-10dB and a jack. Correctors and bass and treble (the treble is no point to nothing, the low reduces the bump around 100Hz).
A very good point: the volume are potentiomtres faade. H yes gentlemen manufacturers of speakers: how do you see the volume knob if derrire??

SOUNDS

The curve gives frquence rponse in the manual has nothing do with what is meant: I would say that are relatively neutral with MSP5 may be a "nice" bump in the medium and low-medium (REPRESENTATIVES that the curve of the manual has nothing to do, including a low of 200 900Hz). There is everything you need in the acute, and even if the bandwidth in thoriated s'arrte 50Hz, I can assure you they descend low enough in the condition of the place stratgique of Manir.
These monitors proximity so do not put them hsiter trs prs ears, and of course your head cents, including a good record in the lower.
No problemo in terms of dynamics, precision, image and power stro surprising.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought one week ago.
Dj boss had it and I knew that I liked. I compared with Berhinger B2031, M-Audio BX5 and Tapco S5.
I intended to buy the Tapco first saw the price and good reviews Keyboards magazine.
But when I compared the Tapco and Yamaha in the store, the t test was concluded after 5 seconds even if the Tapco may be down a little better in the bass, it lacks square ment something up mdium and acute.

The Yamaha prsentent CHARACTERISTICS which is a both a quality and a default: the sound is still pretty enjoyable. So you will always enjoy work on it. But this lack of transparency has its limits: a mix "ugly" sound "too ugly" on MSP5. Say whatever you Listen, will always have the same kind of sound. But I was good and I like it I really like that sound. On Berhinger or Genelec, the default color mix taient most flagrant, but so what-that-be dsagrable costs little aggressive and tiring (even for the mix normally "pretty")!

Carrment I am happy with my choice for:
- The look and trs small
- Power
- The solid and reputable warranty 2 years
- The volume buttons on faade
- The precision and bandwidth
- Shielding

MSP5 with, even if it is not the most transparent, you will not miss your mixes as rendering the low, mid and treble is neutral and bandwidth tense. I am 100% satisfied from what I have tried.

The size of its speakers is interesting for the home studio, the quality of the connection jack or XLR did the rest.
The setting of the facade is in practice too, as the LED on the front of power
I use my keyboard or with a preamp stage for a scratching electric guitar.
to work they are excellent.

SOUNDS

The dynamics are fine but the spectrum is not restrict the size of the low hp of course.
not expect serious oversized ... but for the instruments is honorable.
pierce the acute response is good and excellent!
No white noise with its fully ... which is very pleasant qd compared to other monitors!

OVERALL OPINION

Since one year I have, has not the weight of default.
At this price it's tough, reliable-sounding Hon.
excellent value for Q / P
tries Beringher of peavey but most of good points to the yamaha, but on all speakers have their strong point!
referrer I choose without worry!

I chose these costs to their report qualitprix and the quality of the finish.

These are costs 2-way bi-amplified, blinds, which have respective amplifiers:
40 W for the bass and 27W for the tweeter (type titanium dme).
They dgagent a sound pressure 101dBm.

Note the prsence of
<ul> Correction of ± 1.5dB for bass and treble
Volume faade (trs simple option but not ngligeable)
Tmoin Power in faade </ul>

Both types of connectors are available in between (Jack and XLR) and are of good quality (sturdy).

I use them in home studio, for all that arrangement.
They are places in the simplest configuration follows:
- Output Table Mackie 1402-VLZ

SOUNDS

I find that the curve is fairly neutral but, however, suggests the low bass and treble a little too gnreux (bi-amplification clearly identified).

I'm quite surprised at the bass response to the volume of the enclosure that is as enjoyable trs prcis a not too fat. I t all the more I read the comments of ngaubot and I expected (given the size of the boomer) from bass empty ... So nice surprise: they remain reasonable trs.

For cons, the bi-amplification suggests a dynamic inflate a bit, especially in the high mdiums / Treble: It expects that "lcher power" ... So attention to unpleasant surprises.

Personally, I like the sound pressure me, I must admit, quite on the bluff Premire costs.

I do not cost a lot of costs, which can be made that I think will see this, but I find the sound of a great claret. I tried to take a sample has sinusodal frquence 20Hz 22kHz for gradual and did not hear any loss of volume for a frquence prcise (unlike many speakers).

I also test my 31-band equalizer dessuss rvle trs clear that each frquence ...

Well ... You may say that they are a little rough tests of apple, but they did rvls each frquence which for me is a sign of dj Fidler signal. APRS, the ear is something else.

Stereo image is also clear trs. Spatialisons so ...

on the other hand, their placement in the pice is, as any cost or pregnant, a rle trs important for his ... (Nothing new but the ...). The happiness of those with the spices and Specializes adapted for audio.

The electronic trs seems no good quality white noise background even all the volumes ...

OVERALL OPINION

Well, I do not use them for a long time (August 2004), but I have no dception of what they bring me, especially for the price (500 euros a pair).

on the other hand I use them as masters of the individual instruments (keyboard, bass 6 strings, which may affect many of the low register boomers, guitars for mdiums). Honntement while out well! Do they have the kind evokes as flattering in the forums ... I do not know. Sr, it must be to avoid the connatre any surprises!

I love the compact of the costs versus what they can DGIG, their sound pressure level (even if it is default in connection with other speakers who have less and therefore changes the Proceedings of the mastering). The trick is to connatres ... I am discovering ...

In the same price range I have not tried many other so much that it had given gnralement not much to see. I have followed the advice of more specialist in all that fell on the same MODEL for this price range.

In terms of price quality ratio, I have nothing to say! I think if I n'tais I would not fill one of those difficult people ... Not openly, not bad at all!

No hsitation, even with some cost costs since my choice and have made some arrangements with masters and I am by no means the ...

- Speakers cheap, and of the reputable bnficiant of NS10M, even if controversial. Trs good speakers, obviously not competing not against gnlec, Mackies or JBL, but cohrentes.
- They serve me to monitor, returns, and conventional speakers.
-The bass is obviously absent, but the bandwidth is correct trs. Mdiums can be of a little hard, but nothing mchant. The mixes I've done with all have a hell of a punch, a good energy. A low cut / low pass and high pass cut up trslger can rectify the default brief acoustic type rsonnances rear.
The bass reflex can REALLY get to the bandwidth down without too CRER fireworks on the bass.
It's good stuff, also in close-up of speakers with a pair of larger bowls.

SOUNDS

Good dynamic gnrale (Z'aime bocou dynamics)
They obviously more suitable for modern music, electrical or electronic, that a mix of acoustic music. The energy they have on modern music changes more easily agressivit on acoustics.

OVERALL OPINION

Purchased three years ago.
they are super strong, fairly heavy for their size (and a guarantee of quality blinds.
I know a lot of MODELS but the only truly comparable, they are the Truths that are excellent for their price, but TRS tiring (mdiums the long and low aggressive artificial.) I can achter -be a pair later in the MSP complment 5. Or if I win the lottery, I take HR624 x 4, with the housing and the central SERIES, and I mate my dvds on it!!

Bass Reflex Active Speaker 2-way bi-amplified
bandwidth of 50Hz ~ 40kHz
maximum output level 101dB (1m on axis)
Weight 7.5 kg
cone woofers, 12 cm (4 magntique shield), power 40 W
tweeters of 2.5 cm, dme titanium (6 magntique shield), power 27 W
line in between a +4 dB XLR
line in between two type jack-10dB

SOUNDS

Monitoring trs comfortable highs are not aggressive and the bass is gnreuse, attention to mastering EQ and not hsiter mdiums more in return for a perfect on your chain or other prods!

OVERALL OPINION

Qualitprix level, there is no product that benefitted from such a finish and a rigor in the specifications. Yamaha MSP-5 with this strike a blow and allows simple musicians and sound technician to enjoy a professional costs a small price!
