NS-SW1000 Discontinué
Hear what couldn’t be heard. See what couldn’t be seen.
The NS-SW1000 is a new Yamaha high-end subwoofer faithfully utilising Advanced YST ll (Yamaha Active Servo Technology ll) polished over the span of a quarter century to achieve highly musical reproduction of exceedingly low bass frequencies. The main themes in developing this model were completely achieving “both high sound quality and high output power” and “both HiFi and theatre reproduction”. While maintaining the huge power output and sound levels of the previous YST-SW1500, the NS-SW1000 aims to deliver uncompromisingly delicate musical expression that brings out the individuality of the main speaker. For that reason, maximum priority was given to creating an extremely efficient speaker within which to employ the unique A-YSTII technology. The foundation for this is the massive 19kg (41.9 lbs) high strength, heavy enclosure around the 30cm (12”) woofer unit with double magnets, the all-new Yamaha digital amplifier IC, and the high 1kW output power amplifier incorporating a large analogue power supply. These three elements fuse an extraordinary scale with traditional musicality to bring you deep, tight, authentic bass that’s perfect for watching movies, listening to multi-channel audio or music videos, or for bringing dramatic richness to high-end audio systems.
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.
Nouvelle technologie Yamaha Twisted Flare Port pour des basses encore plus claires
Le tout nouvel évent en forme de spirale profite de la grande expérience de Yamaha dans le développement de caissons de basses. Cet évent spécial diffuse le vortex d'air généré aux bords de la sortie, pour un débit constant. Cette technologie permet de réduire les sons superflus non-présents dans le signal d'entrée original pour un son clair et une reproduction fidèle des basses fréquences. Des effets spéciaux de films aux atmosphères des concerts live, vous ressentirez des basses réalistes, claires et précises.
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
Développée par Yamaha, la technologie Advanced YST II (Yamaha Active Servo Technology II) combine les variations d'impédance et le principe du courant constant pour gérer le haut-parleur avec davantage de contrôle que la version précédente. Avec des circuits Convertisseur d’Impédance Négative Avancé (ANIC), ce système optimise l’impédance effective pour maintenir une linéarité excellente. La réponse des basses s’en retrouve plus stable et précise, influant positivement sur la qualité audio.
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.
Choice of Three Cabinet Finishes Including Piano Finish
The NS-SW1000 cabinet exterior is available in your choice of black piano, white piano, or black embossed laminate. The piano finish uses the same material as Yamaha grand pianos, and in the last production step each unit is carefully polished, giving a good gloss for your livingroom or listening room. The embossed laminate is ideal for home theatre with a subdued gloss that reduces reflection onto your viewing screen and a scratch resistance surface.
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.
B.A.S.S. mode
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.
