Impeccable sound, beautifully finished.

Let me start off by admitting that I'm a Yamaha fan. I've owned Yamaha audio equipment in one form or another since the early 80s and for a while I sold Yamaha audio equipment in what used to be called a "stereo store". As part of my sales training, I was invited to the Yamaha west coast facility in Buena Park to see their entire home audio product line and to hear a little bit about Yamaha's history and focus. I was pretty impressed with Yamaha's dedication to their "Natural Sound" philosophy - in other words, their mission of reproducing sound without artifact or coloration by using hand-picked components in collaboration with superior manufacturing practices. It is a philosophy that is fully realized in these small speakers. How do they sound? They sound every bit as good as the material the are reproducing (they add or subtract nothing). Highs are bright and clean (not brittle), mids are warm and open (without muddle) and the staging is very good. Lows are tight and relatively deep - good enough for most music, but a subwoofer will definitely be needed if you're looking to use these in a home theater configuration. As noted elsewhere, these are relatively power hungry little boxes. You won't get the best that these have to offer at less than 60 watts per channel. I'm running mine at 100 watts per channel and they are performing beautifully. I detect no strain at high volume. It's very hard to imagine a better speaker in this size at this price. Their sound and performance is as good as it gets and the finish (piano black lacquer) is a work of art. I've owned mine for 6 years now and am as satisfied with them now as I was the day I unboxed them.

Really nice speakers

In our small living room these are great. Hooked up to a Yamaha RXV377 amp, speakers are on 16 inch stands. Now hearing a lot of detail in movies. May also add a small sub, but for now this is a really good start.

ns-333 Bookshelf Speakers

These are great sounding speakers. They bring out the subtle material that was available in the source that other systems leave hidden. Hearing guitar picks scraping the string (at low amp volume levels) may not seem worth mentioning, but if it is part of the source material, we should be able to hear it and these speakers give you that clarity. I think they are best when set up with a woofer, but they hold up nicely without one --- which your neighbors might appreciate. When the amp volume is turned up loud, these speakers handle the levels without cracking nor do they get shrill. The speakers I have have a neutral to ever so slightly warm tone. They work quite nicely for music such as jazz, blues, movie whispers and action noises and dialog. For the price and value, Yamaha professionally delivered a great speaker system.

Small size, great sound

I use these mostly for tv and movies, and have them hooked up to Yamaha rxv371 amp. I had some smaller box 1800bl's hooked up before. I turned my bass down on these, because they put out plenty for me at +2. The voices are deep and sound real natural. Also with the higher sensitivity, adjusted my turn on level. Played some Scorpions greatest hits and turned up to a -12db and the guitar screamed in a good way. They handle plenty of power. Just love these speakers. I bought 2 sets with the 444 center and a Yamaha sub. Movies just sound great, especially when turned up. I usually don't turn on my sub, except for movies. These have enough bass for sports, and everyday tv. Oh, also don't have to turn up as much to hear dialogue, which can be nice at night. Also built speaker stands at 36 inches tall to put them near, above ear level. A little taller for rear.

The Best Speakers ...

This pair of bookshelves produces impressively high quality sound. I'm using it all the time and am completely blown away by it's quality. It's a bargain for the price and it looks pretty neat next to my TV. Using it mostly connected to my RX-V571 receiver to watch TV, movies, series and to listen to music while using some DJ equipment. Definitely recommended as a great buy!!!

Yamaha NS-333 Features

  • Two Way Bass Reflex Bookshelf Speaker System: This System is designed specifically for home theater applications. The bookshelf speaker is a bass-reflex design that can be used for main or surround channels and incorporates a 5" PMD cone woofer and a 1" aluminum dome tweeter.
  • Waveguide Horn: Unlike most homes, movie theaters use sound absorbing materials on walls and ceilings. The result is that the sound reaching your ears is the sound wave produced by the speakers rather than reflected off the walls.
  • Internally Wired with Monster Cable: Yamaha has chosen to ensure optimum sound quality by internally wiring some of the components with Monster Cable. This ensures a clean, clear signal from the crossover network to the speaker driver.
  • Magnetic Shielding: The speaker is magnetically shielded, so it can be placed on a TV or video monitor without degrading the picture via stray magnetic fields.
  • Performance Enhanced by a Handsome Cabinet: The EF series speakers are enclosed in an Elliptical Form cabinet with a high gloss black piano finish, which provides solid construction with minimal sound diffraction.
  • New Grill Design: New grill design and grill cloth provide an attractive and acoustically transparent protective cover for the drivers.
