From the manufacturer
Yamaha knows music
As the world's largest musical instrument manufacturer and home theater innovator, Yamaha knows how to make your TV, movies and music their absolute best.
NX-N500
Powered Network Speakers With MusicCast
Inheriting the precision of the classic NS-10M studio monitors, the NX-N500 is a modern monitor that boasts musical expressiveness exceeding its class. By repeatedly evaluating the tuning of the left and right speakers at 2-3 meter audition position intervals, it achieves stereophonic expression that liberates the true feeling of the music.

MusicCastMusicCast makes it easy to bring music to every room in your home wirelessly with playback controlled by a simple app. Start with a MusicCast capable AV receiver in your main entertainment room for the ultimate home theater experience, then add MusicCast speakers, sound bars or Hi-Fi components in other rooms wirelessly. |
Network Sources and BluetoothSupport for the music streaming services include, Pandora, Spotify, Rhapsody and Sirius XM Internet radio. These services allow you to enjoy a wide variety of music content. Furthermore, support for vTuner Internet radio stations enables sampling of Internet radio broadcasts from around the world. |
ESS Sabre DACThe digital-to-analog (D/A) converter—the ES9010K2M from ESS Technology, Inc.—offers high-precision processing of 32-bit audio and the ability to handle large amounts of audio data (PCM 384 kHz, DSD 5.6 MHz). Since the built-in D/A converter generates its own master clock, an original jitter-elimination function is also included. This allows for the D/A conversion to experience an extremely low impact of clock jitter. |
USB-DAC FunctionThe NX-N500 has a high performance USB DAC that supports PCM 384 kHz / 32-bit and DSD 5.6 MHz native resolutions. It is compatible with asynchronous transmission and produces low-jitter by using its own master clock versus using the clock in the PC. It also makes use of an ASIO driver that achieves lower latency and higher throughput. |

Bi-AmpThe power amplifier is critical to powered speakers. The NX-N500 utilizes a discrete bi-amplification system featuring a 45 watt amplifier to the woofer and 25 watt amplifier to the tweeter. These analog amplifiers produce strong, expansive sound by directly driving each unit individually while maintaining the feeling of a high signal-to-noise ratio. |
5-Inch WooferBy incorporating a thick waveguide it achieves smooth and accurate high-frequency reproduction. The 5 inch woofer employs the same new advanced PMD (Polymer-injected Mica) diaphragm used in the high-end Soavo speakers from Yamaha. |
1-Inch TweeterWith a 2-way speaker configuration, the NX-N500 utilizes a 1 inch dome tweeter capable of handling 40 kHz high-bandwidth playback in order to reproduce the rich amount of audio information unique to high-resolution sound sources. |
Three-Way Mitred-jointThe enclosure employs a thick MDF (medium density fiberboard) with high rigidity to produce uniform acoustic characteristics. It features a three-way mitered-joint traditionally used in high- end Yamaha speakers. This suppresses unwanted resonance and helps ensure that you’ll hear sound with an outstanding sense of realism. |
