Near-perfect Evolution

More than 30 years experience in the design and production of

top-performance speaker systems has won

Yamaha an enviable position in the recording

field: respected professionals depend on

Yamaha to help them achieve award-winning sound.

The venerable NS10M STUDIO monitor speaker is an excellent

example: from its introduction in the 80’s through to its recent

discontinuation (due to unavailability of the necessary pure virgin

pulp for its distinctive white woofer cone), the NS10M STUDIO

was the definitive near-field speaker monitor in an overwhelming

majority of professional studios throughout the world. But times

change, and technology must evolve. The MSP10 STUDIO is

an example of near-perfect evolution. It takes over where

its predecessor left off with precision and performance

that are perfectly suited to today’s production needs.

The Yamaha MSP10 STUDIO Powered Monitor is

poised to become a cornerstone of the “new age” of

audio production, in which advanced digital production

consoles such as the Yamaha DM2000 and 02R96 as well as

high-sample-rate digital source material and ultra-accurate

reproduction media are rapidly becoming the norm.

“Good” Sound Is Not Necessarily “Right” Sound

The last thing an audio professional needs is flattering sound. They need the truth – precise reproduction that clearly reflects even the tiniest changes in EQ, dynamics, effects, or any of the multitude of parameters that add up to create the final sound. Thus, unlike many home-use systems that can simply be made to sound “good,” reference monitors have to sound “right,” and that’s an entirely different story. Here’s where inspired design, uncompromising material selection, innovative technology, micron-tolerance manufacturing, and a good dose of one elusive skill that only comes through long experience – knowing what “right sound” sounds like – become vitally important. The MSP10 STUDIO design team, headed by Akira Nakamura, designer of the original NS10M, has all the necessary skills, resources, and dedication. And with development assistance and feedback from industry luminaries, the Yamaha MSP10 STUDIO delivers performance you can bet your career on.

Powered for Consistent Quality & Convenience

In any situation speakers are part of an interactive “system.” This includes the speakers themselves, the amplifier that is driving them, and the room in which they are used. Ideally, all of these elements must be carefully controlled to achieve optimum performance. By integrating the power amplifiers and speakers, at least part of the equation can be kept under perfect control (the room is up to the user). The MSP10 STUDIO power amplifier/speaker system is ideally matched and precisely tuned to achieve the best possible performance. Of course, the power amplifiers themselves are of the finest quality. And unlike component power amplifiers which must be

MSP10 STUDIO FEATURES

designed for acceptable (read: “compromised”) matching with the widest possible range of speakers, the MSP10 STUDIO’s amplifiers are designed and manufactured specifically to drive the system’s woofer and tweeter – specifically in the MSP10 STUDIO enclosure. No matter where the MSP10 STUDIO monitors are used, and with what sources or other audio gear, you know that you’re always receiving the benefits of a perfectly matched power amplifier and speaker system. You’ll hear the difference. You’ll also benefit from the convenience of not having to deal with external amplifiers and cabling.

Advanced Bi-amp Design

There are a number of advantages to multi-amp speaker setups, but many people shy away from the added cost and extra equipment required. With the MSP10 STUDIO everything you need is built-in – all you have to do is supply the line-level input. The 8-inch cone woofer is driven by a 120-watt power amplifier, while the 1-inch titanium-dome tweeter has its own 60-watt power amplifier. In the MSP10 STUDIO this particular power and impedance combination results in the perfect balance between the low-mid and high frequency ranges. The frequency ranges are divided via a carefully designed electronic crossover before the power amplifier inputs, featuring steep 30-dB/octave roll-off curves in both the lowand high-pass filters. The steep roll-off minimizes intermodulation between the frequency bands at the crossover point, achieving significantly smoother, cleaner crossover performance in the critical midrange. And the fact that the crossover is a line-level electronic design completely eliminates the loss, distortion, and sometimes severe intermodulation that are almost unavoidable in conventional passive crossover networks driven by a single power amplifier.
