EF Series Has Been Upgraded for Higher Performance!

The PMC (Polymer-injected Mica Diaphragm) Series was a great success, proving popular with consumers and winning awards for excellence around the world. The new EF (Elliprical Form) Series is designed to build on that success, offering even higher performance combined with an elegant Yamaha traditional piano finish cabinet. The woofers, tweeters and cabinets have been refined and improved, and even the wiring has been upgraded, with Monster Cable being used to connect woofer and crossover network. The result is superb audio quality with music sources and the latest 6.1 and 5.1 channel movie soundtracks. It’s the latest in home theater speaker design, from the leader in home theater: Yamaha.

Behind EF Series Superiority: the

Waveguide Horn

Conventional direct-radiating home speakers have broad directional characteristics that result in a relatively high proportion of reflected sound (you hear a lot of sound that has bounced off walls). Movie theaters, however, are designed to have a highly absorptive acoustic environment so multichannel soundtracks provide a rich sense of spatial expression. To achieve the same effect in the home, therefore, it is necessary to use speakers with a direct/reflected sound ratio quite different from ordinary audio speakers. This is especially true in multi-speaker home theaters, where there would otherwise be lots of reflections. Yamaha accomplished this with the development of the Waveguide Horn, creating the ideal home theater speaker.

The Yamaha NS-777, NS-555, NS-333, and NS-C444 speaker series exemplify Yamaha's commitment to delivering high-quality audio performance and innovative design. Each model is engineered to provide an exceptional listening experience for music enthusiasts and home theater aficionados alike.

The NS-777 is a powerful floor-standing speaker that features a three-way design. It boasts dual 8-inch woofers that produce deep, impactful bass, complemented by a 5-inch midrange driver that ensures clear, natural vocal reproduction. The high frequencies are handled by a 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter, which delivers smooth and accurate sound. With a frequency response that extends down to 30 Hz, the NS-777 is capable of conveying even the lowest notes with clarity and punch.

The NS-555, also a floor-standing model, shares many design elements with the NS-777 but with slightly smaller dimensions. It uses dual 5-inch woofers and a 1-inch tweeter, providing a balanced sound profile ideal for both music and movies. The NS-555 is particularly well-suited for systems where space is a consideration without sacrificing audio quality. Its efficient design allows for placement in a variety of room settings, making it a versatile choice.

For those seeking bookshelf speakers, the NS-333 offers impressive performance in a compact form factor. This two-way speaker features a 5-inch woofer and a 1-inch tweeter, providing a full range of sound that belies its smaller size. The NS-333 is perfect for smaller listening environments, making it an excellent choice for casual listening or as part of a multi-room audio system.

Completing the lineup, the NS-C444 serves as a dedicated center channel speaker. This model utilizes dual 5-inch woofers and a 1-inch tweeter, ensuring that dialogue and sound effects remain clear and distinct in home theater setups. Its design allows it to be easily integrated into various AV configurations, providing a cohesive sound stage that enhances the viewing experience.

All models incorporate Yamaha's advanced technologies, including the use of high-quality MDF enclosures to minimize unwanted resonance. Additionally, the speakers are equipped with precision-tuned ports for improved bass response and overall efficiency. With their refined look and exceptional audio capabilities, the Yamaha NS speaker series stands out as an excellent choice for anyone looking to elevate their audio experience.
