The new HS Series of reference monitors were designed to give you exceptionally flat response so you can really trust what you hear. That means that mixes that sound good on Yamaha HS speakers will sound good on anything. In fact, that's the ultimate test of a reference monitor. Even better than that, HS series speakers not only sound good, they look great, too.HS Series cabinets look as great as they sound. Enclosures are constructed of high-quality MDF material and a multiple layer finish that minimizes resonance. Design elements include a black finish and lighted Yamaha tuning fork logo. White polypropylene woofer cones recall the look of the classic Yamaha NS10M, and include low-damping rubber surrounds and full magnetic shielding. Review: 1000 5star reviews don't lie. - I always like to mention the seller in my review. I Purchased these from azmuzik here on desertcart. Price was amazing at $230 each NIB. if you can't find the seller, check back because they can't seem to keep them in stock. I got the pair and free shipping for $460. list price is $450each, average store price is $350ea. desertcart said to allow 2-3 days processing time, but azmuzik shipped them next day. Shipped from California to Georgia in 4 days including a weekend on UPS ground, originally said a Wednesday delivery, but they came a day early. I am incredibly pleased with this. my small home studio consists of CubaseLE4, Focusrite Scarlett 18i6 and these sweet Yammies. The speakers themselves are amazing. worth every 5 star review they get(and it seems 5 star is all they ever get). spend your time adjusting them and listening and making fine adjustments to the listening angle, Read the manual, and play with/pay attention to the differences in the settings on the speaker. something sweet happens when you get these setup perfectly for your room where the speakers themselves disappear and the music source suddenly seems to be floating in front of you. I have demo these on every source from Iron Maiden to Don Henley to Vivaldi to JayZ. They really come alive on a good mastering that has nuance sounds like Vivaldi's 4 seasons or Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon. I can hear clear differences between the original source and a converted MP3 of my own productions. suddenly I have to go back and re-master all of my work I did on sony studio headphones. in order to post any cons about these speakers, I would have to be nit picky. *the average user will have to reach around back to turn them on/off "DARN!" ..my friend has a nice set of Mackie HR624 they pop when you turn them off, the switch on these is very soft.. no sound at all at power on/off *they are 13" deep plus the wires that stick off the back. if you are pressed for space, consider this fact probably only production studio desks have an ear level bar that will support 30lbs 13x15x9 in a proper sound field.(I'm now using speaker stands) Everybodys ears are different. If you have been using other monitors and considering an upgrade I would definitely recommend you audition these at the top of your list. if you are newbie, but want a quality set of monitors I highly recommend you get it right the first time and buy these bad boys, you are going to have to learn the nuances of monitoring anyway, so buy these if they are in your price range. If you are pro, you aren't reading my review, you already know what you want. Review: Amazing... I have no more words. - If you're wanting to know whether all the 5-star reviews are really true to their word; they are. Every single one of them. In fact, I'll go as far as to say that they're nearly underselling the product, but if you want to know my story, read further. I'm a freelance composer and sound artist and most of my work comes from independent game developers. I write 10-20 musical pieces week-in, week out. Before I purchased these monitors my mixes relied on a pair of headphones. While they were good (MDR 7506), there was always something missing in my mixes and headphones weren't cutting it anymore. Getting a pair of monitors were inevitable. Along with the the purchase I began research a lot into acoustics and for building a future home studio. I was really worried that my room was going to create a big mess of standing waves, resonance, comb-filters and whatnot have you. I purchases the KRK Ergo so I could be prepared solving the low frequency issues. When I got these babies I fired them up and I must say, the clarity and detail these monitors produce is really mind-boggling at first. The wicked definition of the stereo image/center image, the precision of the depth, and very very smooth, un-exaggerated bass. I was blown away to bits, but my concern was whether I was getting "the real deal", "The true reference." I made tests with my KRK ERGO and with 95% room knowledge the ergo could not correct anything. The uncorrected and corrected signals were so identical, even if it made a difference it was inaudible. I was baffled, to say the least, but I had to be sure. I brought in a GoldLine Realtime analyzer in order to see if there any problems in the room. To my surprise bursting out a constant pink noise and analyzing my room in my mix position, the response is flat as a pancake. How it's possible in a bed room, I don't know, but till this day I am trying to prove the readings wrong. I've mixed over 20+ of my compositions on these and I've managed to properly balance the tracks, create a bigger image, add more color, dynamics, and power to them. They all sound much much more professional now. These speakers EASILY pointed out all the shortcomings of my headphones mixes, with no problem, every track, EVERY time. I love knowing these speakers can punish me for not paying attention to what it's telling me; if there's something wrong in the mix it's gonna be wrong everywhere else.

But Needs USB MIDI device & cable to work with PC / laptop! *by D***T on July 27, 2013* I was impressed with this HS80M studio monitors [which I got from Amazon]; the sound quality is amazing. I tried to connect them to my PC directly, but that was impossible; instead after consulting some reps at BestBuy, I bought an M-Audio M-Track device [basically a USB MIDI interface device that helps you to connect studio music equipment to your computer]. The cable was also sold at Bestbuy, so I grabbed that as well. FYI, I use this thing with FL studio.... And I highly recommend these 8-inch monitors over the cheaper 5-inch monitors per the bass sound output. BTW, this thing is huge, and it is as tall as your desktop PC unit, when placed side by side, and its much wider than the PC. If you place them directly on the table of your computer setup, when the dB level is turned up at the back of the monitors, the active units will literally shake your entire table, so don't turn up the dB too high during the initial set up. You can buy the stands for the set [the same way you can buy a microphone stand], in order to support them away from your main PC and MIDI piano setup. When you buy two monitor units, try to create a triangle effect in your home studio, so that both speakers point at you, and that will give you a concentrated surround-sound effect. If you buy one monitor first [per the high price], trust me, you will not be disappointed, as it will help you with mastering your audio track better than any headphones that cost the same or even more - because it amplifies the distinct layers of the sounds better than the High-end Boss PC Companion 5 speakers that are sold as 2-piece or 3-piece sets. But if you bought just one unit, then you'll probably want to buy the second HS80M monitor in about a week!! And If you can't afford the stand / support for the monitor, just get a really thick book or something really thick and rectangular to support the monitor - as long as its well elevated from your table, then it won't send those vibrations that I warned you about. - 5 out of 5 stars!! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.mx/products/69747633-yamaha-hs80m-studio-reference-monitor](https://www.desertcart.mx/products/69747633-yamaha-hs80m-studio-reference-monitor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Mexico* *Store origin: MX* *Last updated: 2026-10-10*
