The Yamaha HS5 is a 5-inch bi-amplified nearfield studio monitor with a 45W LF + 25W HF amplifier pair and the brand's familiar white-cone cosmetic. The rear panel provides one balanced XLR input and one balanced 1/4-inch TRS phone jack so it accepts either pro-level gear or instrument/keyboard outputs without an adapter. Two rotary/switch controls — Room Control and High Trim — shape response for boundary placement and acoustic variations. AC power arrives via a detachable IEC C14 inlet.
