deep bass tones, the Advanced YST system
includes a negative output impedance
amplifier. By precisely matching it to the
Helmholtz system, the combined amp-
speaker impedance become zero. This
enables the compact cabinet to reproduce
bass frequencies with close to perfectly flat
response. Youre assured of getting the
highest levels of sound pressure and overall
performance.
Advanced Yamaha Active Servo Technology
(Advanced YST) combines the excellent
imaging and point source characteristics of
small speakers with the superb bass response
of large ones. The key to its success is a
Helmholtz resonatora small port in the
speaker cabinet. The cabinet volume and port
size are scaled to an exact ratio, which causes
small amplitude input signals to be magnified
without distortion. And because zero speaker
impedance results in the best reproduction of
To fully optimize bass performance in a high-
end system, two subwoofers are
recommended.
