Product Description
The Yamaha HS7I Black is a top - notch 2 - way bass reflex bi - amplified nearfield powered studio monitor. With newly developed transducers, it offers a super smooth response across a wide bandwidth. The advanced magnetic field design of these transducers regulates magnetic response flow, delivering seamless and natural sonic transitions. Every component's materials and design have been carefully re - examined and optimized for highly accurate signal reproduction in the audio spectrum.
The enclosure is made of dense and resilient MDF with a damped acoustic response, ideal for reference monitors. Thanks to Yamaha's over 100 years of piano design experience, the traditional three - way mitered - joint technique is used. This construction firmly secures the enclosure corners, enhancing durability and eliminating unwanted resonance that can affect sound quality.
Key features include its black color, a 2 - way setup with a 6.5 - inch cone woofer and 1 - inch dome tweeter. It has a frequency response of 43Hz - 30kHz (-10dB) and 55Hz - 24kHz (-3dB). The 60W LF plus 35W HF bi - amp system provides 95W of high - performance power amplification. There are ROOM CONTROL and HIGH TRIM response controls, XLR and TRS phone jack inputs for balanced or unbalanced signals, and mounting points on four surfaces. It comes in single packaging.
Technical specifications show it's a 2 - way bi - amp powered studio monitor with a 2kHz crossover. It has an output power of 95W (60W LF, 35W HF), and input sensitivity of - 10dBu/10k ohms. I/O connectors are XLR3 - 31 type and PHONE. The power - on indicator is a white LED, and power consumption is 55W. It's a bass - reflex type with an MDF cabinet and has mounting hardware on four surfaces. Dimensions are 210mm (8 - 1/4") x 332mm (13 - 1/16") x 284mm (11 - 3/16"), net weight is 8.7 kg (19.2 lbs.). Accessories include an owner's manual, power cord, and two screws for brackets. Options include various brackets, and it comes in single packaging. Other features are LEVEL control and EQ switches.
Using the Yamaha HS7I is quite straightforward. First, connect it to your audio source using the XLR or TRS phone jack inputs. Make sure to check the input sensitivity settings to match your source. Once connected, power it on, and you'll see the white LED indicator light up.
When setting up, use the ROOM CONTROL and HIGH TRIM response controls to adjust the sound according to your room's acoustics. For example, if your room has a lot of low - frequency reflections, you can use the ROOM CONTROL switch to reduce the bass a bit.
As for maintenance, keep the monitor clean by gently wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. When not in use, turn it off to save power and extend its lifespan. Also, check the cables regularly for any signs of wear and tear. If you want to mount the monitor, use the provided mounting points and the appropriate brackets from the available options.
