All user reviews for the Yamaha HS80M

After having seduced test Seriously.
Home studio use, creation, and now they are so mixing property.
Couples with an RME Fireface 400.
Auralex pice soundproof.

The EQ adjustments on the rear panel let diffrentes well adapted to the situations. Especially if you are obligs to place nearly a wall or corner. It is all the same prfrable optimize their investment in order to avoid any correction.

Well located it is perfect.


SONORITS

These speakers are really clean. Positioned on stands they correctly restaurants account for the entire sound spectrum.
The main default my taste, is the lack of gnac the bottom mdium well as below 60 Hz. But with a SECOND Contrle, ca rolls impeccable.

Good transient, acute purposes.

For stro picture, I still have not figured out how we could have had a bad seats with 2 speakers properly.


NOTICE GLOBAL

Now a few months of use.
For the price I do not know where to find better.

I also have Focal CMS, Yamaha did not blush.

They had me ready to record a disc. Then the owner of the arcupres but the disc n'tait not finished ... So having started to record the disc with these speakers I have redeemed the same to finish ... I use them for mixing, recording and possibly some prmasters.

SONORITS

The frquence curve is not forcment super neutral, the dynamic is rather good, the picture is quite wide stro I find the sound is quite clear and that what prcis unflattering. But once you sound well head it is very pleasant to work with.

NOTICE GLOBAL

These are good speakers I use them for three years I tried some other models a bit smaller, including five inches. What I really like is that there was some rglages behind and are linkable with a subwoofer. The quality-price ratio is rather good and for the same budget I would do this choice without problem.

At the time I had left on the HS50 which had its mouth (the logo is lit all), which are compact, which fell within my budget and had good reviews in the press. But once in the store, the seller made me listen to HS80 (malignant) and direct the bass that I missed were there. This was my first pair of monitor so not too Reversing ...
I enjoyed EQ settings and especially the bass compensation when monitor is against a wall, very useful for the home studio which is usually compact.

SOUNDS

With hindsight and years, I think the low end lacks a little définissions so be careful at low (see below) which can be rotated once a hifi listening which tends to amplify these frequencies.
In contrast dynamics and stereo are good, even if I do not have much comparison ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have 6 years and I'm thinking seriously about changing to go to the Adam. These are good monitors proximity but because my home studio instead evolved into the studio with amateur governed, they show their limits due to the remoteness and the requirement. In addition, adjustments to the rear with the power button are not practical.

To conclude, this is a good pair of monitor with a very good value to start over, but it is a little specialty Yamaha.

I chose these monitor speakers after listening to the dealer.
I wanted to test the yamaha because I kept very good memories of NS10,
and for use in home studio pretty basic, like me, this is pretty good

SOUNDS

The sound is pretty accurate overall with a slight lack in bass frequencies at low volumes.
Good momentum, but its a bit flattering nonetheless.

OVERALL OPINION

I use them for 3 years, after using Mackie, Genelec and Yam NS10.
My first choice would have been Genelec again, but not the same budget.
Value / price very satisfactory overall.
I think they really stand out clearly in the same price range (there 3 years)
Unless it is out of better things since I certainly would do this choice with respect to the budget. The best is still to check with a good dealer and compare all the models in stock, armed with a cd that we know well to make his choice.

I could not find 10 ns so I look at this model.
the use being a home studio at the beginning,

but after a few years I am accustomed to their sound and I have started to use them well

SOUNDS

neutrality is not strong in hsm but when we used to sy we start differencer surplus gene frequency that particular mediums.

OVERALL OPINION

I have since 2007, being the first model that I've buys J stays pretty pleased with the report, but after using the KH and FOCAL it realizes that it is not top, but if you happen to do ringing sound that will ring above Cést necessarily on others.

value for money is correct

Purchased in 2013 for my home studio, associated with 01V96i and Cubase.
Excellent monitor speakers, they leave nothing happen. I had trouble with the headset, the result was never consistent with my expectations at a replay on speakers living or radio. There are no surprises when it sounds with these speakers it's all good everywhere.
Attention to the bass reflex positioned at the rear, do not put them too close to the wall (if you can operate a low-cut button provided for this purpose, but suddenly it changes the frequency response).

SOUNDS

Good frequency response, with very fine treble and good hot coffee. Even with bass sounds.
The sound seems very clean, excellent dynamics.
A pure delight.

OVERALL OPINION

I use them for a few months, it has totally changed my way of working in the studio. After presetting the headphone (often roaming), I conclude systematically finalization mix with these speakers. The result listening on any other system still meets my expectations.

I bought them because for that price, there is not much choice if you want speakers 8 inches.
I used everything in my home studio .. Composition hip hop, electro, listening to music ...
It is connected directly to a sound card as they are amplified.

SOUNDS

I like the sound is very clear to me, the stereo image allows me very correct (coming from someone who has not tried hundreds of pairs either!) Spectrum appears respected me but lacks good on low natural dison below 60Hz .. This also comes acoustics of my room I guess.

OVERALL OPINION

I use them for about 3 years and I have directly compared with Krk Rockit and Behringer B2031 .. There is no picture in Krk side were extremely bad, unclear drafts, cartoning and behringer sounded very hifi (boosted bass, stereo .. not very clear).

What I like most is that it is a very good introduction to the world of monitor speakers, they are still really nice (yes it counts!) And they never have me created any problems.

WHAT I LIKE THE LESS AND YOU SHOULD KNOW:
The woofers are not protected and seem fragile, basically there must be really gaffe is on but I guess it's better to have protection above .. The vents are at the back so if they are too close to a wall is not great because it takes all the pressure that comes out ..

I highly recommend it if they are for a home studio with a sound not perfect because they work well and anyway it will not do absolutely nothing to have the most expensive speakers in this case .. If it is for a mixing studio PRO with perfect acoustics and much larger budget it will not be probably the right choice (or maybe in the second pair of listening ..). Then I also think it is important to get the ear of pregnant like that .. A bit like learning to drive a classic car and not a ferrari ..

For that price yes I referrer that choice, for 500 € and with a much cleaner I leave on events, Genelec, Dynaudio or Focal acoustic ...

I wanted a pair of monitoring in a tight budget but not too bad, because they would be my first monitor speakers.
Browsing several forums and reviews some pro they seemed perfect for my budget especially as I found almost 300 € new pair!

SOUNDS

I find fairly flat response curve and do not flatter the bass. Well placed they offer a good specialization and good rendering of mediums high mids and treble, the dynamic is rather very well respected ... well I'm so used to them that his work is a real pleasure over and above I make pretty good mix with "my taste" to be modest

OVERALL OPINION

I utlisie for 2 years now and after a period of adaptation everything becomes clear and precise and frankly at this price point I would do the same choice, I tried krk Rokit 6 but too low and others, the quality report price is simply deadly ... my next choice will be the focal solo 6 ... but we need to save money!

What motivated my choice is first of all the prestige of the brand and price. The use was big home studio

SOUNDS

We can not speak of a curve is neutral because whatever the monitorings curve is neutral so in an anechoic chamber or a room well treated well but in a room or its is not then not any speaker will be more neutral. We must therefore treat a minimum to operate its monitorings. The stereo image is correct, the lack of precision in the bass between 60 and 80hz. Dynamics is correct. They are worth their price.

OVERALL OPINION

I used them for 3 years. Today I work on the Adam A8X 1200euros very sure they are 10 times better than the adams but the price is also different pair. Those I like least about yamaha hs 80m is the vents on the rear of the speakers and the power button also.
The price is correct to start but if you become pro not have to go on something else. on the other hand carefully in any case they are the responsibility of Yamaha NS10M is completely takes the sound is completely different.

Yamaha reputation in the field.
Used with a subwoofer yamaha yst-sw 320 for audiovisual mixing and music.
Possibility of adjusting the curve on the rear side.

SOUNDS

Pregnant pretty flat compared to BX8 some Genelec or that flatters many but prevents a critical work.
Its light and not tiring after several hours of listening.
The stereo image is satisfactory.
Large power reserves for nearfield.

OVERALL OPINION

Used for 7 years, I find the price / quality ratio very interesting, especially as it is found in the 400 euros a pair.
Mine are like new despite their age, whether it is neat it gives the impression of being able to last 30 years
In addition they are pretty.

Attention nothing to do with the NS10, but the color may be.

It had taken me to record a disc. Then the owner has recovered but the disk was not finished ... So who started to record the disc with these speakers I bought the same for the complete ... I use them for mixing, recording and possibly some premasters.

SOUNDS

The frequency curve is not necessarily super neutral dynamics is quite good, the stereo image is wide enough I think the sound is quite clear and precise if somewhat flattering. But once you get good sound in mind it is very pleasant to work with.

OVERALL OPINION

They are good speakers I use for three years I have tried a few other slightly smaller models, including five inches. What I really like is that there are some settings behind and are linkable with a subwoofer. The value is pretty good and for the same budget I would do without this choice problem.
