Yamaha Bundle: HS5 Studio Monitors (Pair) w/Samson Mic & Headphones
The Yamaha HS5 Studio Monitors
Today's major facilities still rely on Yamahas historically famous nearfield studio monitor, the celebrated but now discontinued NS-10. It has always remained the epitome of the term industry standard. They were seen, heard and photographed in thousands of world-class studios. Noted for their brutally honest sound reproduction and unflattering response, these ever-popular monitor speakers are still sought after to this day in spite of the fact that theyve been discontinued. The old saying went, If it sounds good on the NS-10s, itll sound good on anything.
A 2-Way Amp for a 2-Way Monitor
Yamaha designed the HS series monitors with a special 2-way speaker set. A new woofer and tweeter, each powered by their own dedicated amps, giving the NS10-tradition of flat response that means that your mixes will have their deficiencies revealed so you can make accurate decisions throughout your mixing process. But, unlike the NS-10, the white polypropylene cone woofer and a newly-designed 1 dome tweeter have an extended range much more in-line with the demands of todays low-end content in many styles of todays popular music.

This will enable your final mixes to translate accurately and honestly to the outside world...ultimately what the NS-10's were famous for.
100 Years of Solid Sound-Friendly Cabinet Design
