Yamaha MSP7 Studio
Bi-amp Powered Speaker

There are a number of advantages to multi-amp speaker setups. With the Yamaha MSP7 Studio everything you need is built-in - all you have to do is supply the line-level input.

The 6.5 inch cone woofer is driven by an 80-watt power amplifier, while the 1 inch dome tweeter has its own 50-watt power amplifier. This particular power and driver combination results in the perfect balance between the low-mid and high frequency ranges.

The frequency ranges are divided via a carefully designed electronic crossover before the power amplifier inputs, featuring steep 30-dB/octave roll-off curves in both the low- and high-pass filters. The steep roll-off minimizes inter-modulation between the frequency bands at the crossover point, achieving significantly smoother, cleaner crossover performance in the critical midrange. And the fact that the crossover is a line level electronic design eliminates the loss, distortion, and sometimes severe inter-modulation that are almost unavoidable in conventional passive crossover networks driven by a single power amplifier.

The MSP7 Studio woofer and tweeter units feature design innovations that contribute directly to improved sound quality. The 6.5 inch woofer features a specially treated polypropylene cone with low damping rubber surrounds for exceptionally smooth response. Low-reflection high rigidity die-cast magnesium baskets both maximize mechanical precision while minimizing unwanted coloration of the speaker's output.

The 1 inch tweeters feature titanium domes that offer the perfect combination of light weight and rigidity for precise reproduction right up to 40 kHz. The tweeters have a powerful magnetic circuit that results in fast response for crisp, natural transients, and are integrated with a waveguide that achieves uniform high frequency dispersion of 120 degrees.
