Yamaha HS8 Active Studio Monitor, White

Yamaha HS8 Active Studio Monitor, White Overview

The second-generation of the Yamaha HS series combines the pristine, high-resolution sound that the monitors are renowned for with an innovative resonance-busting enclosure and upgraded transducers for a smoother response.

Serious Power

The Yamaha HS8 active studio monitor boasts the widest frequency range, headroom and power out of all the models in the HS series. This nearfield monitor is perfect for medium to large studio spaces and control rooms, especially those with some acoustic treatment. If you’re working in a small bedroom or project studio setup, the HS5 or the HS7 may be more suited to that environment.

Suited To Large Spaces

You likely won’t need a subwoofer if you’re running a pair of HS8 monitors, as the standalone low-end performance is so impressive - all the way down to 38Hz! Having a complete picture of all of your music’s frequencies, especially the bass, is key during mixing. The HS8 will convey exactly what’s going on with your lows, which will help you avoid overcompensating and crafting a muddy mix.

New Extension

If you’re working on electronic or bass-orientated genres where you have to “feel” those sub frequencies, want that extra level of control and have sympathetic neighbours, you can team the HS8 up with Yamaha’s dedicated HS8S subwoofer for a major low-end extension. Whilst you can pair up any compatible subwoofer to the HS8, the HS8S has been voiced to sonically match HS series monitors for the best performance.

Feature Presentation

Yamaha’s HS8 studio monitor delivers the flat, high-resolution sound and features which have made the series a best-seller, including versatile Room Control filters, multiple connectivity options and a brand new enclosure that prevents unwanted resonances from colouring your audio.

The HS8 also comes in a sleek Black and as a Matched Pair for peak sonic performance.

Boasting truly exceptional audio performance at an affordable price, the Yamaha HS nearfield monitor series remains immensely popular amongst producers, engineers and artists alike.
