  • Yamaha NS-10s are the worst speaker ever made -- and that's why you own them. To find out what your music would sound like n the worst case scenario.

    Don't think NS-10s are something you should final master on.

  • @kennyb2142 You're not grabbing the concept.

    You don't want colouring of sound but you still need to be able to accurately reproduce bass, mids and highs.

    Cheaper and smaller monitors will not be able to output as much bass as a more expensive, bigger one does. It's just physically and technically not possible.

    Most monitors also have a x-over that can output to an additional subwoofer for even more accurate and powerful bass reproduction.

  • Home loudspeakers are not intended to “colour” the sound in any way. Certainly it is not the intension of most loudspeaker designers. In fact, the basis of a good loudspeaker is to be as neutral sounding as possible. To imply otherwise is disingenuous.

  • this video is useless, we compare audio monitors with different characteristics and different economic bracket .. Besides, presented audio monitor that are worth little more than simple audio speakers ..

  • What do you think about the Yamaha HS50Ms? I'm going for commercial value mixing.

  • OK, NOW MAKE A FESTIVAL ON YOUR STUDIO WHIT SUBWOOFERS.

  • @EricShookRools for me i find the NS-10s are good for reference monitors and are getting levels right but the do sound terrible haha

  • coño

    

  • 4:33 Behringer it is!

  • @Pvtchrislee07 I have a pair of BX8 D2s. This hiss you are experiencing is NOT the amplifiers. You have a ground loop. Go buy yourself a Behringer hum destroyer for £20 or so it will get rid of the hiss. It won't get rid of the low hum sound that the speakers themselves make but when sound is coming out of these speakers you will not hear this low hum.

  • So the speaker capability is still not maximized, but it'd feels really loud in the room.

    Is that really true (for the volume of my room)?. Because, he suggested me for using 5inch monitor or 6inch. And that would be the KRK that he sells. haha

    But I still have a doubt in it. Still wanted to choose Yamaha, or Adams if the room is really compatible with 5 inch :D.

    Thanks before, really need your opinion.. :D
