Product Description
The luxurious finish of the cabinet, similar to that used on Yamaha grand pianos, indicates the outstanding quality of this speaker system. The 3-way acoustic suspension design features a 20cm (8") high compliance, pearl white, long throw cone woofer with a cloth surround and an inverted dust cover. The midrange is a 10cm (4") ferro-fluid cooled, pearl white cone type with an inverted dust cover. The 2.2cm (7/8") balanced-dome tweeter is also ferro-fluid cooled. The speaker is magnetically shielded so it can be used near a TV, and has gold-plated banana plug compatible terminals.

 Easy on the Eyes and Wallet, a little rough on the Ears September 18, 2008
Bill C. Woods (45th Parrallel)
I found thse speakers to be a great bargain and they definitely look nice, but their tone is warm to the point of being harsh. The highs are extended to be sure but there is no weight to the bass and the mids shrivel under those rough high tones. Turn the treble down halfway, turn the bass all the way up and dial in a good sub. They can be made to sound fairly resolute and detailed with a little tuning. However they lack that clear refined sound when running straight signal to them without tone adjustments, which higher end speakers exhibit with less effort. 4 Stars because of the price and the abitlity to tune them with a good sub. Subtract one star for every $10.00 increase above their current price. Decent, pretty looking home theatre mains if you have nice stands.

WOW! What an outstanding product. They handle tons of power, it can output a lot of bass without distortion and the overall sound is exceptional for the price and size. Using as FRONT speakers in my setup. Sound clarity is also very good.
Great high and imaging March 19, 2004

I have audited several low price speakers, such as $100 to $300 range Pioneer, Polk Audio, Boston, KLH ... This Yamaha speaker has great highs, transparent, and Great 3D imaging! The focusing so sharp and accurate, I can almost 'see' the instruments and singers.
However, this speaker is weak at midrange and lows. A subwoofer can compensate for that.
