Reviews for Yamaha HS50M Active Studio Monitor (70 Watts, 1x5 in.)

Very clear sound with audible noise

Strengths: Clarity sound

Weakness: Audible noise at quiet environment

I bought them for my Motif XS. Its middle and high sound are very clear. The big problem is I can hear their noise when I turn them on at very quiet situation. Even I play my Motif XS when I select some voices, such as pianos, etc, I still can hear the noise. It makes me very uncomfortable. Yamaha's monitor speaker, such as Yamaha NS10M, used to be a standard of recording monitors. But this model let me very disappointment.

HS50M

Strengths: Great sound, no noise, look great

Weakness: none so far

I use these at my house for listening to house and dance music and I am very satisfied. I also use them to work with cubase and they perform flawlessly. When you use these you know that you're hearing the true sound. I would highly recommend them.
