Yamaha NS5000 Flagship Speakers Unboxed | The Listening Post | TLPCHC TLPWLG

Yamaha's Best Ever... #Yamaha have proudly introduced the #NS5000, a 3-way speaker system that shows off the future of Yamaha's speaker technology. Yamaha have spared no effort in all aspects of designing Hi-Fi speakers, including components and materials.
The result is the superb NS-5000, with sound and performance that sets a standard for all Hi-Fi speakers to come.
Features...
Revolutionary #ZYLON Material
ZYLON is a synthetic material that boasts the title of the "world’s strongest synthetic fibre" while possessing optimum elasticity. The soft-dome diaphragm suppresses peaks and dips in the frequency response, while taking advantage of its high acoustic velocity comparable to that of beryllium.
The result is a remarkably flat frequency response, with unified tone color and acoustic velocity over the entire frequency range, providing comfortable listening experience and meticulously accurate, superb sound reproduction of the highest degree.
Newly developed Resonance Suppression Chamber
Yamaha's new R.S chambers suppress unwanted resonance in the mid and high ranges, achieving higher-resolution audio reproduction. By eliminating the need for a large quantity of sound-absorbing material inside the enclosure that tends to smooth the frequency response of each speaker unit and might degrade minute nuances of the sound.
Frequency-dividing Network
All drivers in the NS-5000 are connected in positive phase with single wiring to deliver a natural, pleasing listening experience. Components of its frequency-dividing network are mounted on a double-sided printed circuit board with extra-thick copper.
Yamaha used handpicked parts of only the highest quality, such as the SUPREME EVO audio capacitor, which is made in Germany and renowned as the pinnacle of audio-use capacitor and a woofer coil that weighs as much as 1.6 kg (3.52 lbs).
Specs...
Type: 3 way Bookshelf Bass-reflex Type
Woofers: 12" ZYLON®
MidRange Driver: 3.25 Inch ZYLON®
Tweeter: 1.25 Inch ZYLON®
Frequency Response: 26 Hz-40 kHz (-10dB), -100 kHz (-30dB)
Nominal Input Power: 200 W
Maximum Input Power: 600 W
Sensitivity: 88 dB / 2.83 V/1 m

You do a really good job editing these videos! Cheers!

[@TLPCHC]

Thank you - But I don't do it. It is all thanks to Hulk.co.nz

[@mrrandy1]

been waiting for this one

[@TLPCHC]

Thanks mrrandy. I hope you enjoyed it

[@juliangst]

I hope some people will review them. I can barely find written reviews but most people who listened to them said they're phenomenal and perform way above their price point.

[@TLPCHC]

There are a huge number of reviews on these speakers. I did a quick Google and there are over 30.

[@DeadSeaGenesis]

These are simply spectacular!!! Yamaha has taken the iconic Pioneer HPM Design and taken it to a whole new dimension - Wow!!! Thank you for another excellent unboxing 👍🤘👍

[@TLPCHC]

Thank you DeadSea. These speakers are superb - I hope you get the chance to have a listen at some stage

[@terryilett9437]

did the ns 1000m come out before pioneer HPM ,1974 for the yammies i believe

[@osvadeos]

Hi i have de yamaha CA 610 recently i bought, it amazing, my speakers are the akai sw 117

[@GeoffParsons1469]

Great looking stuff.

[@TLPCHC]

Yes - superb. and they soudn amazing

[@muhammadqureshi824]

Beautiful speakers

[@TLPCHC]

Yes - Stunning, and they sound even better

[@timjp31]

I couldn't agree more, their a beautiful speaker and they sound for the money totally amazing, I recently bought a pair in Perth, my REL subs are now on movie duties only which is a shame for such a fantastic sounding sub, but with the NS 5000 you don't need subs.

[@TLPCHC]

Yes - these are stunning

[@timjp31]

@@TLPCHC I'm looking for a new power amp to sit between my NS 5000 and my chord hugo TT2, thinking of the PS audio MS1200 or their BHK, what would be your choice for the best fit?

[@AudioElectronicsChicago]

good looking speakers

[@TLPCHC]

They sound better than they look

[@RoyFJ65]

Nice review, need to go audition them to find out how close or better they are to my relic NS1000M speakers.

[@TLPCHC]

they are an astonishing speaker

[@JohnDoe-rn3jy]

Hello Sir. Just wondering how good these speakers will work with the partner A-S3200 integrated amp or if need more juice to work really great. I'm tempted to think they could make a great pair as these are not power hungry, but I'm just guessing...

[@TLPCHC]

Hi John. The A-S3200 has enough power and in its price point it is a solid option. I love these speakers powered with McIntosh though. The MA-9000, or MA-9500 is a superb match - but expensive. www.listeningpost.co.nz/products/amplifiers/integrated-amplifiers/mcintosh-ma9500-integrated-amplifier-9500-receiver-__I.470871__C.27254__N.27756

[@jeffreymilam8335]

Stunning fit and finish to the cabinets. How far would you suggest they be placed from the wall?

[@TLPCHC]

40cm to 90cm from the wall seems to be ok.

[@jeffreymilam8335]

@@TLPCHC Thank you . Again great unboxing of a spectacular product.

[@bazaarwallah5444]

Yikes! My heart❤ is in my mouth waiting for you drop the speakers on its face thereby destroying the Zylon drivers!

[@TLPCHC]

Heart in your mouth.... Try watching 8min into this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYHNlGCjrdl3pdk

[@jeffhealey5488]

Great looking speakers - are these available to listen to in Wellington?

[@TLPCHC]

Currently in CHC, but there is a pair on order for WLG too. If you fly down to CHC and have a listen, I will buy you beer (or coffee).

[@jeffhealey5488]

@@TLPCHC Thanks might have to do that, as a matter of interest what is the minimum Yamaha amp you could effectively use with these?

[@jeffhealey5488]

Will be in chch tomorrow - are these speakers still set up to listen to?

[@TLPCHC]

Yes - We have these set up

[@JohnSeitz]

Looks like a modernized “retro” speakers from the 1970’s but upscale

[@TLPCHC]

Yes - the style is iconic and worth keeping

[@kenjeffries9736]

Your Great to watch, but being in this business thru the years, I will either ( if I think of it at the time) wear gloves, or take my watch, etc. off when I'm unpackaging and setting up components. Oh' the pain if I were to scratch something, I have scratched high gloss panels and speakers in the past. Most recently it was no my Yamaha AS-2100 panel. Anyway, that's my 2 cents worth. Thanks!

[@TLPCHC]

I think you may be missing the point of these videos. Life is not all about silk gloves and a soft touch.
