Spectacular appearance

NS-333 came out back in 2005 and since then has not fallen out of the top sales, regularly competing in tests with more modern acoustics. All thanks to the combination of price, Yamaha quality and versatility — they were born to be part of the home theater, but over time, many have tried them as acoustics for Hi-Fi systems.

Ultimate build quality

The NS-333 speakers immediately impress with their stylish appearance and lacquered finish. This is both a minus and a plus — they look spectacular, but the body is quite easily soiled, which leaves traces instantly. Otherwise, the build quality and fit of the speaker parts are Japanese-style reliable and impeccable. Yamaha says that all parts of the speakers are assembled by hand, the wood is selected from fifty different varieties, and the speakers themselves are tested for several months in a wide variety of conditions. The process is so meticulous that they have, for example, a test chamber that simulates an Amazon rainforest. We do not know how much this improves the sound quality, but the seriousness of the approach is impressive.

Pearl Indian Mica Speakers

A scrupulous approach without regard to the price tag is also manifested in the internal structure of the acoustics. The 5" woofer is made from a special PMD material using Indian pearl mica, known for its optimum acoustic properties. In the case of the aluminium alloy tweeter, the horn design that is inherent in more expensive systems catches the eye. And all the wiring inside the speakers is done using Monster audiophile cable. According to the NS-333 passport, they cover the frequency range from 60 to 35000 Hz, the maximum power is 120 watts.

Honest and detailed sound

The character of the system's sound is typical of Yamaha — the most honest, detailed and without excessive coloring. Usually, this model is praised for the jewelry reproduction of medium frequencies of any character and dynamics — from the changeable jazz of John Coltrane to heavy cinematic scenes like dialogs in a flying helicopter. The upper frequencies have the highest detail with sometimes slightly harsh notes. Bass reproduction is of high quality, but this is not the most striking feature of this acoustics. In general, the NS-333 show themselves to be honest and versatile speakers that work equally well with music of different genres, as well as multi-channel Hollywood blockbuster tracks.
