HS8S - Powered subwoofer, active for producers, DJs and performers, in black

There doesn’t seem to be many reviews for this so I thought I would leave a quick one of my own. I’ve been eyeing this up for some time. I have a pair of HS50m’s in my studio/ office and they do lack the lower end I need for my mainly music listening these days. Previously I used Rokit 8’s to fill the low end gap but as I’ve moved house recently I don’t have the room for them so instead I went for this sub to accompany the Yamaha monitors I’m really happy I did. This thing has sooo much bass on tap and clean, articulate, punchy, deep bass at that. I’ve got it at about 10’clock and that is easily enough. It has completely filled that gap in sound from the HS50m’s that cover off the mids and highs. It took me all of 5 mins to setup an integrate into my existing rig. It is expensive, but it’s well built, got plenty of features, connectivity and sounds great. You get what you pay for with this unit.

If you have the HS5 monitors then these will give you the bass you need, was hesitant at first to buy, but once I set it up with my HS5's it was perfect.

I use these for Monitoring and General sound production. They are well balanced and don't make crazy claims about what Hertz range they have. We hear at 20-20 Hz. These deliver accurate sound. I have a pair, but bought only one as one had developed a minor Hum. Checked all leads except the plug, which was sealed. I added the new one to sit alongside the older one. . The sound is equally well balanced and they both output the same high quality sound. I have a small studio and won't let anything on to the market if it isn't right. These / This tells me honestly, when it is right. Very happy. I don't use for gaming, so have left that section blank.

What a awesome piece works well sounds good in good condition will buy another soon thanks

While it probably is a very good subwoofer, I found it hard to set up properly with my monitors due to lack of proper explanations on how to configure low and hi cutoff and the power. For a studio, it lacks a bypass pedal. It s probably a good choice for a home cinema or for someone with all the tools to configure the subwoofer for a balanced - flat frequency- sound system.

Value for money, crystal clear sound

First and foremost: they sound amazing!! Clean, powerful and articulate! Exactly what I wanted. Build quality is excellent!! Solid and weighty. Nice inputs and control at rear of speaker. Look great with white speaker cones and subtle front light when on. Partnered with Douk Audio valve amp for better audio and control via USB.

Happy Happy Happy

Mi aspettato una qualità migliore dei bassi, nonostante abbia smanettato con i controller e i regolatori del taglio di frequenze, i bassi sembrano avere distorsioni incontrollate.

Petites enceintes surprenante, très bonne définition, deux filtres passe bandes , pour corriger l'ensemble spectral de la pièce, pour faire du travail d'amateur pas besoin de plus, bon c'est pas des Barefoot mais c'est moins chère !

Subwoofer puissant, utilisé en complément des HS8 du même fabricant, indispensable pour vos mixages, La faiblesse des hs8 est le manque de grave à mon sens, ce qui incite à pousser les graves dans le mix et on se retrouve avec trop de basses en finalité, grâce à ce Sub on peut beaucoup mieux driver les basses fréquences, Je sais pas comment j'ai pu faire sans avant maintenant que je l'ai, À mi puissance on couvre largement la puissance des hs8, Le filtre est réglable jusqu a 120Hz ce qui permet de bien avoir la présence et l'attaque des kicks, Globalement satisfait de mon achat, expédition rapide et soignée,

It good

In Kombination mit HS5/7/8 von Yamaha echt klasse, wenn man den Sound abrunden und Bass einbringen möchte. Alles am Mischpult und macht echt Spaß. Dafür sicher perfekt, als Soundsystem in Wohnzimmern sicher nicht, sind eben Direktstrahler!
