Description:

Matched pair of vintage Yamaha NS-1000 three-way loudspeakers. Widely considered one of the most significant milestones in high-fidelity audio history, these speakers are world-renowned for introducing the industry’s first pure vapor-deposited beryllium dome midranges and tweeters. This matched pair delivers breathtaking acoustic transparency, lightning-fast transient response, and an exceptionally wide, precise soundstage. Perfect for mastering studios, discerning audiophiles, and vintage hi-fi collectors alike.

Specifications:

• System Type: 3-way, 3-driver, sealed acoustic suspension system.
• Drivers:
  • Tweeter: 30mm (1.2") JA-0513 Pure Beryllium Dome.
  • Midrange: 88mm (3.5") JA-0801 Pure Beryllium Dome.
  • Woofer: 300mm (12") JA-3058A Pulp Cone Woofer.

Nominal Impedance: 8 Ohms.

Frequency Response: 40 Hz to 20,000 Hz.

• Pure Beryllium Domes: Yamaha's advanced electron-beam evaporation process created ultra-lightweight drivers that eliminate the distortion common in heavier metal domes.
• Acoustic Suspension Enclosure: The dense, sealed cabinet design provides exceptionally tight, fast, and musical low-frequency bass extension.
• Continuously Variable Attenuators: Built-in front-facing level controls allow you to fine-tune the midrange and treble levels to perfectly match your room acoustics.
• Premium Home Aesthetics: Unlike the stark black utility finish of the "M" (Monitor) version, this standard NS-1000 set features a luxurious, heavy real-wood veneer finish designed to look beautiful in home audio listening spaces.

• Functional Condition: Excellent. Both speakers have been fully bench-tested in our Factory HiFi Audio Department. The beryllium drivers are completely intact with no cracks, dents, or corrosion. Potentiometers have been cleaned for crackle-free adjustments.
• Cosmetic Condition: Very Good / Excellent vintage condition. The wood grain looks beautiful with only minor, age-appropriate light scratches
