STUNNING APPEARANCE AND SPACIOUS SOUND WORLD
Yamaha – also known as a musical instrument manufacturer – has launched the NS-800A bookshelf speaker, which combines elegant design with advanced technology. Yamaha’s proprietary Harmonious Diaphragm™ speaker cone produces exceptionally consistent sound, while the spacious cabinet construction provides a wide and rich soundstage. In addition, the speaker has a beautiful piano-like finish that takes your musical experience to a whole new level.
A familiar style from our pianos
The Yamaha NS-800A's elegant appearance combines the sophistication of a piano with the design philosophy of a speaker. The speakers feature the glossy finish typical of Yamaha grand pianos, which is only used on select Yamaha products. The elegant finish makes the speaker blend into your interior and is a pleasure to look at, whether you're listening to music or not.
TRUE SOUND
This is a sound that only Yamaha can deliver, as they are the only manufacturer in the world that produces everything from the moment the sound is created to the moment it reaches the human ear. Close your eyes and feel the artist performing right in front of you, and experience the profound feeling of being truly "closer to the artist."
TONAL BALANCE
Every ear hears the world differently. Yamaha expresses sound as the artist intended. Reproducing sound elements like vocals and instruments at the right pitch requires both passion and precision. Yamaha achieves this through tonal balance, enriching harmonies and recreating musicality so you can hear sounds you couldn't hear before.
PERFECTLY UNIFORM TONE
Hear the true sound of your instruments. As a world-renowned manufacturer of musical instruments, Yamaha is tirelessly committed to this mission. To achieve this goal, we have created flagship speakers that are designed with a consistent tone color across the entire frequency spectrum in mind, and we have applied unique technology to achieve this. The speakers in the NS-800A model use a newly developed Harmonious Diaphragm™ cone, made from a blend of ZYLON® fiber, which has excellent sound velocity and optimal element resonance, and Hexafiber, which is used in the soundboard of Yamaha grand pianos and is essential for sound radiating. This ensures that the harmonies of the sound stand out and the music is richer and more beautiful.
DYNAMICS
Instead of just producing a powerful sound, we strive for dynamics that embody the contrast between the silence and movement of the music, allowing you to feel the powerful and deep emotions of the music and immerse yourself in the world of music.
PERFECT MUSIC REPRODUCTION
Yamaha's patented RS (Resonance Suppression) dampers are mounted on the rear of the tweeter drivers to faithfully reproduce the finest nuances of instruments and voices. Two specially designed tubes cancel out unwanted resonances generated behind the diaphragm, producing the original sound while preserving even the smallest musical nuances.
FAITHFUL MUSICAL PRESENCE
Conventional speakers use a lot of sound-absorbing material to eliminate standing waves inside the cabinet, but at the same time, they remove much of the music's inherent liveliness. In the NS-800A speakers, we have used a patented Absorber tube to eliminate standing waves while minimizing the amount of damping material to reproduce the original realism of the music with full energy and dynamics.
SOUND IMAGE
The positioning of the artist and instruments, and even the subtle nuances and atmosphere of the performance space, are reproduced with astonishing accuracy. The resulting soundstage is so incredibly realistic that you feel as if you are watching the performance unfold right in front of you.
VERY MUSICAL VIBRATION CONTROL
The foundation of producing excellent sound, whether in musical instruments or speakers, is determining how the sound is generated in the cabinet and where the vibrations need to be damped. The NS-800A speaker cabinet construction incorporates the latest speaker design technology, making full use of laser vibrometers used in musical instrument research and development, and advanced FEM (Finite Element Method) analysis. The speaker cabinet is optimally reinforced, enabling excellent sound localization that makes you feel like you're right there with the performance, and delivering outstanding expressiveness that perfectly reproduces even the most subtle instrument and vocal nuances.
The NS-800A is a premium 2-way speaker that reproduces instrument sounds naturally and produces a spacious soundstage.
