The Yamaha HS5 Powered Studio Monitors and HS8S Subwoofer with Isolation Stands Kit from B&H includes a pair of HS5 5" 70W powered speakers and an HS8S 8" 150W powered subwoofer. The HS5 and HS8S nearfield speakers are designed to give you an honest and precise audio reference with a concise sound image and flat frequency response, to ensure that your mix faithfully translates in most listening environments.
The kit also comes with a pair of IsoAcoustics ISO-155 acoustic isolation stands for the speakers and an Auray ISO-SUB isolation stabilizer for the subwoofer to deliver improved tonal and spatial accuracy.
The black HS5 Powered Studio Monitor from Yamaha is a bi-amplified monitor that is designed for accurate sound reproduction. It is capable of up to 70W of total output and features a 5-inch woofer and a 1-inch tweeter with waveguide that can produce frequencies up to 30 kHz. The HS5 has both an XLR and 1/4" TRS input that accept either balanced or unbalanced signals for integration into a variety of studio setups.
The HS8S 8" Powered Subwoofer from Yamaha features an eight-inch cone woofer that is capable of up to 150W of output. It can reproduce frequencies down to 22Hz and features variable low and high cut filters between 80 and 120Hz. You can connect to the HS8S through its stereo XLR or 1/4" TRS inputs. It also has stereo XLR extension sub outputs.
An updated version of the popular ISO-L8R stands, the IsoAcoustics ISO-155 is a pair of acoustic isolation stands offering improved tonal and spatial accuracy for your speakers. Measuring 6.1 x 7.5 inches with a height range of 3.0 to 8.3 inches, the ISO-155 isolation stands are designed to hold medium-sized studio monitors weighing up to 40 pounds. By preventing the transfer of speaker cabinet energy to surrounding surfaces, the ISO-155 stands isolate your speakers and reduce smearing. They can be used in broadcast video production houses and recording studios to allow the speaker monitors to perform in free space and achieve their full sonic potential.
The stands offer 14 variations of height and tilt to help you optimize the placement of your monitors and bring your tweeters to ear level. The ISO-155 stands provide superior isolation and decoupling from the supporting surface to minimize reflections and unwanted resonance. The stands are biased to keep all energy in alignment with the listening position, providing greater clarity and focus.
The ISO-SUB Subwoofer Isolation Stabilizer from Auray is for improving the sound and resolution of a subwoofer. It is used to reduce vibrations and unwanted resonance that can make a subwoofer sound muddy, and is ideal for home theater, studio, and stereo-system applications.
A sturdy, fabric-covered wooden base with EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) padding isolates and stabilizes the speaker, and a high-density acoustic foam decouples the speaker from the floor so low frequencies sound clearer and more focused. The ISO-SUB's design preserves the accuracy and clarity of your subwoofer and decreases the transmission of vibrations to adjacent rooms and other spaces.
