Yamaha NS-333 2-Way Bass Reflex Bookshelf Speakers (Pair)
The Yamaha NS-333 bookshelf speaker system is specifically designed for home theater applications. The speakers feature a bass-reflex design appropriate for either main or surround channels that incorporates a 5-inch polymer-injected mica diaphragm (PMD) cone woofer and a 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter. For improved imaging, the tweeter utilizes Yamaha's exclusive waveguide horns, which significantly reduce reflected sound and increase the proportion of directly generated sound waves reaching your ears. This compensates for the lack of sound-absorbing materials on the walls of most homes. The result is a clear and precise sense of sound direction and placement that replicates the sound produced in commercial movie theaters.The NS-333 speakers boast optimum sound quality by featuring Monster Cable internal wiring among several components, ensuring a clean, clear signal from the crossover network to the speaker driver. In addition, each speaker is magnetically shielded, so you can place it on a TV or video monitor without degrading the picture via stray magnetic fields. The speakers' performance is enhanced by their solidly constructed elliptical form cabinets (with a high-gloss, black piano finish), which diffract a minimum of sound. The speakers also feature a new grille design and cloth that serves as an attractive and acoustically transparent protective cover for the drivers.
