Feb 13, 2016 · As modern studio monitors go, the Yamaha HS7 cannot keep up in delivering flat and objectively correct response. It does however deliver on industrial design. With a bit of EQ, the sound is transformed and becomes quite accurate and pleasurable. Without EQ, I cannot recommend the Yamaha HS7. But with EQ, I would.-----

Feb 16, 2018 · Eyeballing the curve of the HS7 through this lens, its zigs and zags make sense to me, even moreso than the curve of the original NS10. So I think the frequency response curve of the HS7 is deliberate. My guess is that the HS7 is a very useful tool, and that mixes which sound good on it also "translate well".

Feb 27, 2019 · Yamaha HS7 Speaker Listening Tests and Equalization My quick reaction to the sound of HS7 was that it was excessively bright. This was aggravated by lack of much bass. So I pulled out the EQ tools to correct this and other issues: View attachment 108221 Once there, the sound was still a bit bright but otherwise, quite enjoyable.

Dec 6, 2018 · The Yamaha HS7 moves this bump lower to 850 Hz, but combined with the treble tilt, these still are not the right speakers for people with treble sensitivity. I have some experience on HS8s, and the work I did on them sounded dull on everything else.

Jan 26, 2023 · Hello everyone! Great to be a part of this forum . I have recently fully treated my room and am finally ready to upgrade my monitors (I didn’t want to change monitoring before treating my room). I have a budget of £2.5k ish and am torn between: 1. Neumann KH150 (new) 2. Neumann KH310 (used...

Jul 25, 2021 · The Yamaha HS7 is at the absolute limit of what I can spend. I love the look but Amir's review raises a couple of concerns. Bass energy seems low. Adding a sub is out of the question but I am in a small room and they will be close to the wall behind them (so that might work out in-room?).

Feb 22, 2022 · Hi everybody, need a bit of help… I’ve got a Behringer QX1832USB Mixer at home, all my 6 x keyboards go into it in STEREO, then from the desk it goes into my Yamaha HS7 Speakers, no matter what EQ settings I try and play with on the desk, my Korg Kronos and Yamaha Montage (when playing pianos)...

Feb 28, 2020 · My subjective preferences after trying headphones and IEMs in the thousands of dollar price range (HD800, Focal Stellia, Meze Emperyean, Dan Audio Voce, HifiMan HE1000, 64 Audio U18T, CA Andromeda, Sony IER-Z1R, CA Solaris, Jomo Trinity, 64 Audio U12T, Tia Trio and more) led me to the conclusion that I prefer the …

Jan 27, 2020 · - Yamaha HS7 - Adam T7V - Kali Audio LP6 - Yamaha HS5 - Dynaudio Xeo 2 (the only active "hi-fi" speaker I auditioned) - JBL 305P (however, it's 2X the MSRP here in my country and it is not an option). Personally, I liked the HS7 and Xeo 2 the most. Interestingly, Kali has very nice reviews, but to me, they sounded like a louder generic computer ...

Feb 23, 2021 · - Yamaha HS7 (not fun or all that accurate, but a decent "sanity check" monitor though not as good as NS10s) C Tier: - Equator D5 (very dark, but the coaxial design was nice!) - Adam S3A (Weirdly boxy and port noise galore - especially unimpressive considering they were 5 grand a pair!) - JBL LSR305/308 (Hard to describe these.
