Refining the essence of the respected HS series speakers in a more compact, creator-friendly housing, the HS3 Studio Monitors from Yamaha are two speakers, one active that powers both speakers, which have 2-way nearfield monitors with an accurate frequency response. Designed to deliver uncompromising audio quality for creatives with limited space, the HS3 monitors excel in applications such as music production and video editing.
The HS3 sports 0.75" dome tweeters and a 3.5" cone woofers fed by a 26W amplifier. The rear panel features 3-way room correction trim switches for boosting low frequencies and attenuating or boosting high frequencies, letting you quickly tune your speakers for your unique acoustic environment, while volume control is available on the front panel. XLR-1/4" combo, stereo 3.5mm, and stereo RCA inputs provide balanced and unbalanced connection options, while a dedicated front-panel 3.5mm headphone output lets you quickly switch between monitors and headphones for mixing reference or in-room recording. The HS3 studio monitors include a speaker cable, a stereo 3.5mm to RCA cable, and eight antislip pads.
FEATURES
Sound that's Always True to the Original
The HS3 and H34 studio monitors embody our legacy of design excellence. No detall has been overlooked. Inside are carefully selected parts such as a high-performance class-D amplifler, a highly resilient MDF cabinet, as well as woofers and soft-dome tweeters that deliver a pure sound faithful to the source - despite their small aize. Additionally, our proprietary "Twisted Flare Port" technology delivers crystal-clear beas with minimal turbulence noise, The result is outstanding resolation, sound image, and depth with a flat response across all bandwidths without any coloring of the original sound.
Optimal Sound Tailored to your Environment
The sound produced by speakers can sometimes be affected by the surrounding environment.
The rear panels of the HS3 and HS4 are equipped with ROOM CONTROL and HIGH TRIM functions that allow you to make adjustments to achieve the ideal sound for any environment, such as reducing the unneeded, exaggerated low-end that can often occur when speakers are placed next to walls.
Inputs and Controls to Fit any Use
The rear panel of the HS3 and HS4 is equipped with combination XLR/TRS phone, RCA, and stereo mini connectors, allowing you to connect to a wide range of equipment such as computers, audio interfaces, audio mixers, and electric instruments. The most commonly used features—power button, volume knob, and headphone connector—are located in the front for easy access.
Compact and Portable
The compact size of the HS3 and HS4 was made possible thanks to the highly efficient class-D amp. Using one amp for two speakers has enabled us to both reduce the weight of the speakers and simplify the cable connections. They take up little space even in a small bedroom studio, and are easy to take with you on the road.
