Crossing the border between HiFi and theatre sound reproduction, deep, tight bass brings out the individuality of the main speaker system. Yamaha’s new subwoofer proudly brings you 1kW of output power.
- High strength, heavy enclosure with twisted flare port
- 1kW digital power amplifier using the latest digital devices and a huge analogue power supply
- All-new 30cm (12”) subwoofer combining a double magnet and a Kevlar composite cone
- High-class external design with a choice of normal or piano finish
High Strength, Heavy Enclosure Structure Using Traditional three-way mitered-joint construction
The cabinet employs a massive 19kg (41.9 lbs) high strength, heavy bass reflex enclosure constructed of thick 36mm (1-3/8”) MDF (medium-density fiberboard) on the baffle sides and 25mm (1”) MDF on the other sides with traditional three-way mitered-joint construction. It has a strong resonance-resisting structure with cast-iron legs and a front-firing design with the woofer unit attached to the front of the enclosure. It delivers direct, razor-sharp sound that’s ideal for high-end audio systems.
New Twisted Flare Port Produces Clear and Tight Bass
The all-new Twisted Flare Port takes advantage of extensive subwoofer development experience. The flared, gently twisting shape diffuses the vortex of air generated around the edge of the port, creating a smooth flow of air. This reduces extraneous noise not present in the original input signal and provides clear, accurate low frequency reproduction. From special effect sounds in movies to the atmosphere of a live venue, you hear bass that is clear, tight and realistic.
Digital Power Amplifier Achieves 1kW Output Power with a High Current MOS-FET Discrete Output Stage
The 1kW output power digital amplifier employs a drive stage using the all-new Yamaha digital amplifier IC and a high current MOS-FET discrete push-pull output stage. Careful sound quality tuning included the use of a luxurious triple-wound Litz wire high-capacity output coil and capacitors especially designed for audio, resulting in optimum high quality and high power, for use in theater or HiFi environments.
Huge Analogue Power Supply with High Capacity Output Transformer and Large Block Electrolytic Capacitors
The huge power supply for the built-in power amplifier has a massive 10.2kg (22.5 lbs) high capacity power transformer and two large 160V 4,700μF block electrolytic capacitors, making it capable of sustaining the 1kW power output. Yamaha used a conventional pure analog power supply to achieve superior response and musicality in the very low bass range
Convenient Size, Majestic Bass Reproduction. Yamaha’s Unique A-YSTII Technology
Yamaha’nın yeni geliştirdiği Advanced YST II (Yamaha Aktif Servo Teknolojisi II) öncekinden daha da sıkı bir kontrolle hoparlör konisine güç sağlamak için negatif empedansı ve sürekli-akım prensiplerini kullanır. Gelişmiş Negatif Empedans Dönüştürücü (ANIC) devreleri kullanan bu sistem mükemmel lineerliği sürdürmek için etkin hoparlör empedansını optimize eder. Bu da daha doğal ve enerjik bas sesi oluşumu için daha istikrarlı ve doğru bas sesler tepkisiyle beraber daha yüksek ses basınç seviyeleri anlamına gelir.
All-New 30cm (12") Woofer Unit with Double Magnet and Double Damper
To achieve long-stroke drive with its superior linearity, the NS-SW1000 uses a 30cm (12”)woofer unit with a strong, flexible drive system employing double layer large diameter ferrite magnets and a double damper with an air vent. The frame is high strength aluminium diecast to suppress unwanted resonance even at high volumes, making it possible to reproduce delicate tonal nuances.
Optimally Designed Semi-Pressed Paper Cone with Kevlar Fibers
The specially designed woofer diaphragm is semi-pressed paper incorporating Kevlar fibers for high strength and optimal internal losses. It was developed for this model in pursuit of the ideal characteristics for a subwoofer.
High-Grade Cabinet Design Anticipates Use with High-End HiFi Equipment
The aluminium front panel with its hairline finish gives an accent to the front panel, and the large aluminium volume control knob, power switch and other controls are spread over the front panel to make a high-grade, comfortable design that is a good match for high-end HiFi Subwoofer.
Auto Standby
If a no-signal condition persists for more than 8 minutes, the system power turns off and a standby condition is entered. Recent energy-saving technology keeps power consumption in standby mode to under 0.3W.
System Control
A System Control connector is provided, and by connecting it to the System Control connector on a Yamaha AV amplifier or integrated amplifier, the power can be set to be automatically turned on and off with the connected amplifier. A 5m (16 ft) cable is provided.
Phase Switchover
On the rear panel a phase switchover selector is provided that selects either normal or reverse woofer output phase. You can set the best phase according to your listening environment while doing comparative listening tests.
ECO Mod
By using the rear panel B.A.S.S. switch, you can set the unit’s tonal characteristics to Music or Movie. Choose the optimum setting depending on the programme source or equipment configuration.
