About this product

Product Information

Turn your home surround sound into a complete 7.1 channel home theater system with the addition of the Yamaha NS-6490 Main Stereo Speakers. Sold as a pair, these three-way acoustic suspension design speakers are small enough to fit on any bookshelf or on any table in your home, making them a great option in areas big or small. Just because these speakers are compact in size doesn’t mean they aren’t powerful. With a 70- to 140-watt power range, these Yamaha speakers easily fill your room with crisp, clear sound. Versatile enough to fit with your audio setup as front, rear, or even auxiliary speakers in another room, this Yamaha bookshelf speaker pair is a valuable addition to many home audio systems. Whether you’re buying a type of speaker, DVD players or other electronics for your home theater, the enclosures on the Yamaha NS-6490 Main Stereo Speakers offer three drivers for a maximum sound rating. Included is an 8-inch high-compliance, long-throw cone woofer, a 4-inch ferrofluid cooled silver metal-like cone midrange driver, and a 7/8-inch ferrofluid cooled balanced dome tweeter. These components all work together to provide sufficient bass and top-notch audio output that ranges from a 45Hz to 23kHz frequency response range. With 70 watts of continuous amplifier power and the ability to peak at 140 watts amplifier power for each channel, these bookshelf speakers provide the oomph needed to any sound system. Additionally, the normal impedance at 8 ohms and 90 dB sensitivity allow these speakers to provide exceptional sound. These speakers are magnetically shielded, so you can place them anywhere in the room, even next to accessories like a television or video monitor, and you won’t experience distortion or interference. Pair these Yamaha speakers with your amplifiers, receivers or subwoofer and experience a sound that is second to none. The Yamaha NS-6490 Main Stereo Speakers not only sound good, but they look good, too. These speakers are covered with a removable black satin grille cloth, which stylishly fits in with any surroundings. What’s more, the inverted dust cover keeps these clean, allowing them to work at their optimal levels while providing the best audio possible. The pearl white cone drivers stand in sleek contrast to the grille cloth, giving each speaker a contemporary look. Gold-plated banana plug terminals ensure the best connection possible from amplifiers, headphones, or other accessories, and they complete the look for a sleek, modern design. The elegant look, rich sound, adequate bass, and optimal audio output give you the audio performance you want, whether you’re listening to music or watching a movie.

Decent Speakers, Good For Lows
These sound pretty decent, best at delivering the mid-range and lows you want. But they are really best paired with other speakers that will deliver the highs and an added powered subwoofer to enhance the base. Not as good as standalone speakers, great as part of a surround sound system. For what I am using them for, they deliver what I want. At the recommendation of a YouTuber, I put them on foam mats. Even better. These sit near the floor (6 inches off on a wire shelf), with a Yamaha powered subwoofer in the corner, and DUAL bookshelf speakers on the top shelf above. Sitting about 15 ft away, everything sounds good. Very big for bookshelf speakers, and 3-way too boot. Most bookshelf speakers are 2-way, and smaller.

Just right for retrofit
I've purchased many of these but retrofit the 8" driver/speaker with a Selenium (by JBL) and replace the midrange with a high end Dayton dome tweeter. I disconnect the regular tweeter and all crossover components, adding a standard capacitor on the new dome tweeter for crossover around 3K. This becomes a high end two way speaker. Needless to say, I buy these only for the enclosure/box because nobody else makes a bookshelf speaker with an 8" speaker. I should mention that the standard components are okay but I wanted something with a lot more punch. It seems most of the speaker manufacturers have abandoned enclosures for 8" and 10", leaving a tinny sounding system and gaping hole in midrange frequency response even when using a good subwoofer. Sorry guys but I grew up with real speaker companies like Cerwin Vega that would crush what's being pushed on the market today! It seems everybody wants to make things cheap today, but for the money, you can buy these cabinets and make a superior system with better components.Read full review

Recommended with some mods to improve bass.
These speakers sound pretty good in stock form but even better with some mods. For more bass (a lot more) you can add two bass reflex ports (available from speaker parts stores) placing one above and between the mid and tweeter and the other below and between mid and tweeter. I found the mid and tweeter too bright and padded them down with several 5 watt cement resistors in series, adding 18 ohms to the tweeter (3 x 6 ohms) and 12 ohms to the mids (3 x 4 ohms). A big improvement. I also removed the two factory crossover caps mounted on the speaker wire cup, purchased two Infinity Reference 2000.4 crossovers and installing them. A gigantic improvement and can shake the house with bass! The factory setup inverts polarity of the midrange driver for improved stereo image which I avoided with the new crossovers.Read full review

rich clear sound
I've had these speakers about three weeks now and I like them. They have a rich clear sound and a nice range. While I'm no expert to my ears they sound pretty good.
