I had a pair of hs5 in the past. Lacking bass but so revealing and clean. So beside having less bass extension would you say they are similar in how they sound? The hs5 were paired with a 10 inches sub so it was a good match

[@MuzdokOfficial]

their are a nice match with a subwoofer and with a well acoustically treated room they have very tight and punchy bass and the sub add the bass extension that is missing its a nice pairing.@@hellofx

HS3 vs Eris 4.5 good for mixing and music production

[@maailmanalku7271]

I visited the Yamaha offices in Nagoya Japan and was just blown away: the showroom was filled with all kinds of instruments from saxophones to guitars, PAs and speakers - and everything they make is so high quality and not too expensive. Truly the samurai spirit channeled into high quality gear. Plus; the staff just threw a spontaneous jazz concert in the middle of the day 😂

[@Tomasor3]

Not to mention they also make great bikes

[@the_handsome_bear]

I got the HS4s a few weeks ago. I really like them

[@jingachaka]

do you think I would need to add a woofer to the hs4/3s in a small room 10 feet long and 15 feet wide or not? and how does the low end feel while listening to music?

I am looking for small monitors for use in recording and mixing at home. Yours is one the most intelligent, insightful and useful reviews of these things I’ve come across. Highly useful information, so thank you! I am your new subscriber!

[@clintonmaher6930]

I've been using a pair of HS80M since 2007 and have had no reason to change, they're great.

[@jmizzbeatsj-jigga7888]

Yamaha or awesome just It's time for them to do a major upgrade they been stuck on this model for over ten yrs. Like to see a high end line from them.

[@ecorona21]

Got them today and not sure if got bad ones or dont know how to set them up... I have to turn the volume knob at least to 50% and turn the volume 100% on my PC to get them to sound loud as opposed to my Logitech PC speakers that are loud turning the knob 50% and 20% on PC. It gets worse wen I use them with my interface, I have to turn the volume knob 100% and set the monitor output on the DAW at least 12dB+... First time using monitors, not sure what am I doing wrong... I'm using standard 1/4 mono cables when using on the interface.

[@ollykramer3673]

I'm gonna grab one of the MixbusTv shirts today!! Whoooho

[@roogrey]

A nice review, David. Okay, we all have a wishlist, but Yamaha stuff is very good, and especially at a price point that most people can stretch to. I have some HS7 monitors and the overall representation is reliable and clear, so it doesn't surprise me that even these little things deliver. Good news for someone trying to get off the ground!

[@mixbustv]

Thank you!

[@ShemianProductions]

love my hs8 since day one

[@SkinnEmannProductions]

I get my best mixes on my 3 inch speakers in a non ideal location.

[@taixaitech]

Thank for your review!

[@Studio22mix]

I have the HS5, they are okayish for the money but I feel they are lacking low-end. They definitely need a sub-woofer with them. My room is too small for decent acoustic treatment so mixing on headphones is my best shot to dial in the low-end. To be honest I would recommend the Yamaha’s if you are on a budget, I would buy them again but would go for the HS8 for the low-end without needing a sub. Also I definitely want to try the ARC Studio with them, curious how much they improve with it. Also important to mention with these speakers is that they have a back firing bass port which makes placement close to a wall problematic to say at least.

[@MuzdokOfficial]

I had them with a sub and nice bass trapping behind them and with sonarworks they were amazing sounding

[@Studio22mix]

@@MuzdokOfficial If I ever change to a bigger room I would like to go that route but my room is 2x3 m2 and I can’t get my speakers to translate well. So for now I’ll stick with headphones to keep the room out of the equation.

[@MuzdokOfficial]

i know that exact same struggle brother@@Studio22mix

[@MuzdokOfficial]

I love my hd600 with sonarworks@@Studio22mix

[@RockstarRecStudio]

Great review again Dave! Comparison with the JBL's you usually have? I know you don't really mix with those but let's say you were forced to, which one would you pick between these two?

[@MikeRendar84]

I've been mixing on the hs8 for years :) Maybe i should get these two to check mids on etc. Thanks for the great review, David!

[@emilybeats6556]

Great review David! Not easy to review monitors on YT!

[@gazell3s]

To the point and insightful, thanks!

[@stephenhall3515]

Hello David. Super review and timely for me as I am now retired, downsizing and codifying my huge multi-source collection. My question is, what subwoofer should I acquire to match these for more general use? Please be as specific as you can in context and size. Of course I have subscribed.

[@mixbustv]

I'd probably go with their 8" sub, h series. Bigger than that would most likely overpower them

[@stephenhall3515]

Many thanks David.

[@MeanTrainingMachine]

Nice! I've always loved the look of Yamahas

[@nutsosix7930]

i'm using yamaha ns 690 and sony 5 powered by pioneer A-8 and PreSonus '3. would like to have these yamaha 3 with 8. and crown amp with ns 1000

[@txtele]

Thanks for the great content keep it coming

[@AlexNemain]

Great review! Would you say the HS8 are superior to the HS3 in any setup roomsize? I have the 8s and thinking of switching to the 3s because of lack of space. If im to use the 8s I have to put them in uneven distance and really bad position, not hitting the sweet spot. With the 3s I have enough deskspace to do so. Do you think its a bad swap? And besides, I mainly mix on 4 different headsets and swap to monitors to avoid ear fatigue.

[@mixbustv]

99% of the times, yes. In your case it sounds like you're in a really bad spot and you might benefit from going smaller, but I wouldn't go below 5" unless you can add a sub to the H3

[@AlexNemain]

@@mixbustv thank you. Any good budget subs?

[@kuhliloach8842]

thanks man! those look great. I'll be skipping Sweetwater -- they seem more interested in sending KZbinrs free gear than taking care of their customers

[@mixbustv]

No problem, Sweetwater tho is the absolute best customer service in US, like bar none. But whatever works for you. Also I don't exactly need 3" speakers myself lol

[@kuhliloach8842]

@@mixbustv I'm an HS8 user and sadly the room I operate in makes them just about useless! Not sure the 3's would help. I boycotted Sweetwater over service issues and will never use them again.

[@hugh444]

that's the fucking best review i've watched all mixed up - precise & smart , thanks dude very good video it helps !

[@arturpolonski6234]

Like always THX Dawid

[@MriWRZ]

There is a 313cm x 250cm room in my house that I plan to turn into a music studio. The goal is to deal with classical piano music or chamber music. Will this pair of speakers fit the size of my space?

[@mixbustv]

That's really small. You should probably go for a 6", go Eve Audio if you can afford them, but you're gonna have troubles in a room that small

[@LaidbackSounds]

The krk s4 v4 kills all them small speakers. Got them as well and they are amazing , were recommended by one of Tupac engineers.

[@NeRR2]

What an honour 🤣

[@sickmessiah]

I wonder what you think about hs8’s. I think next year I’m gonna build the ro4y 3 way monitors as an upgrade.

[@mixbustv]

They're good monitors

[@trashunicorn2308]

They seem great for my portable rig!

[@wlfie950]

can you do a video comparing them to the yamaha hs5

[@cycotec1]

Awesome review! Can you do an excursion test? With a say a drake song like 6god?

[@mcdan2696]

Thank you

[@veritas7010]

You are the cia. I was literally looking for table top pairs and hs3 seemed like the best fit. But what do you think about a sub with these? Dumb idea?

[@mixbustv]

Not at all, they would only benefit from a sub

[@Ram8as]

How are they compared to the Eris 3.5? My current pair I bought last year was an open box....left speaker seems more dominate than the right speaker I thought it was teh DAC that's connected to but when I connected my headphones out put is fine

[@mixbustv]

I've never tried those

[@Ram8as]

@@mixbustv They're great speakers but the ones I bought last year we're open box a.k.a ex demos and the right speaker is sounding weaker than the left speaker...I thought It was my DAC but then I put the headphones on, DAC is fine.

What is that lava lamp light looking type thing next to your speaker? The light flicker cube thing? What is that?

[@mctx9371]

What do you think about Adam Audio? The A8H in particular.

[@mixbustv]

I don't like Adam. Too bight, tweeter way too directional.

[@LaidbackSounds]

@@mixbustvsame here never like the sound signature if that brand

Perfect monitors👍

which is better presouns 3.5 or hs3 ?

[@mixbustv]

I've never tried presonus

[@rrs731]

They seem to punch way above their weight class!

[@brooklynboy1000]

How do they compare to the ik iLouds?

[@mixbustv]

I only tried the 6" iLoud, which I have in my other studio, and those are twice the size

[@samkitt]

How do these compare to the Eve audio SC203??

[@va941]

These are ok, if you cant afford the eves.

[@mixbustv]

Well the 203 have a passive radiator system that will give you a lot more low end and the Eve tweeter is something very special (same as the bigger models too) but of course they're a different price range.

[@HenriqueJambeiro]

Hi, do they have high volume?

[@mixbustv]

High enough for 3"s

[@HenriqueJambeiro]

@@mixbustv thanks

[@4f00d]

damn im total noob but learned years of experience in 10minutes

[@SoundKilterStudio]

Wow! This CANT be a coincidance! The other day I hit you up about adding. I/O and you had JUST added some yourself. Well I just upgraded my PC (M1 Studio Max) and started looking to upgrade my monitors and I always come back to the HS8's but keep doubting my decision. I realize your showcasing the 3's but I doubt the quality gets worse with their bigger monitors!? Have you tested the 8's?

[@mixbustv]

The HS8 are a superior monitor compared to the HS3 altogether and arguably one of the best choices in that price range with probably Kali 8" winning by an inch but it's all about taste because those two monitors are VERY different. Yet, if you can, I'd at least double your price bracket if they're gonna be your main monitors

[@SoundKilterStudio]

Okay. Thats exactly what I was doubting myself with and exactly what I needed to hear. The Eve SC2070's it is then. Thanks for the advice man.
