Very good.
If you are having problems with low end, these are the ones. I have KRK Rokit 5's, and struggled with low end. These really let you hear those low frequences. Plus they do a great job with the highs and mids also. I actually did a comparison at a local store, so I new what they sounded like. Worth every penny.

Great Speakers
I was wanting something that would give me a true sound to work with in the studio. My Yamaha HS speakers have done the trick. Clear sound that is easy to hear all the highs and lows. Big bass, clear trebles. I very happy with what I ended up with.

Great Purchase!
The Yamaha HS8's are a great set of monitors. I have a pair of these, the HS7's and an HS8S subwoofer. All work great together. I have them a/b/c setup with a pair of KRK VXT 6's and the Yamahas are a bit flatter in frequency response and the mixes translate very well. I use them everyday and would recommend them highly

Accurate Fidelity of Sound Same Feel as NS-10
I owned the Yamaha NS-10s and powered them with an Alesis RA-100. Went to JBL LSR305s. The JBLs added a little brightness or resonance to the sound. In other words, they were not as flat as my NS-10s. The JBLs were OK because I take my mixes to a professional mixdown and mastering studio in Los Angeles, where they use the $20,000 mid-field monitors and the NS-10s. I am not knocking the JBLs, because they are cheaper, and I feel are a good value for the price. If you are going to a pro studio with top level studio monitors, the JBLs are good enough. However, if you are trying to take a mix/session all the way to the point where it is ready to master, or if you are going to master a track yourself, I definitely would get the HS8s. Now that I am really getting confident and experienced, I ... I owned the Yamaha NS-10s and powered them with an Alesis RA-100. Went to JBL LSR305s.

However, if you are trying to take a mix/session all the way to the point where it is ready to master, or if you are going to master a track yourself, I definitely would get the HS8s. Now that I am really getting confident and experienced, I am going to take my Protools sessions all the way the point where they are ready to master. I will no longer require a recording engineer to do final mixdown before mastering. Since I no longer have the luxury of having a recording engineer at a professional studio to fine tune my sounds (EQ, compression, reverb, etc.), I needed a very flat speaker that will not color the sound. So I invested in the Yamaha HS8s. They give me the same reassurance the NS-10s did. They are just flat sounding. You have to tweak the EQ and wet the dry mix with reverb to overcome the "flat" sound. That is a GOOD thing. I believe the Yamaha HS8 represents the "truth" of what is being digitally recorded without coloration from the speaker cabinet, etc. I trust them as much as my NS-10s. Since I produce synthpop/dance music, I went with the 8-inch speakers. I am very happy with this. My studio is big enough to allow placement of the HS8 speakers about 3 feet from the wall behind them. This apparently can exaggerate the bass response (bass will sound better than what is being recorded into DAW). This was not an issue with the NS-10s because they did not have the back port/hole. However, the HS8s have a ROOM CONTROL switch enabling compensation for proximity to the wall behind them. Yamaha recommends 1.5 meters distance from the wall to prevent excess bass (false increase in bass sounds). Since my speakers are about 1 meter away, I moved ROOM CONTROL from 0 to -2. If my speakers were really close to the wall, I could move the ROOM CONTROL to -4. So in summary, I do not believe the ported back sides of the HS8s pose a problem with fidelity with regards to bass frequency sounds.

Best purchase I've made in years
These speakers are magnificent! With a flat frequency response, I'm finally hearing all of the errors I've made in my previous recordings, and has significantly improved my recording process. I purchased them used from the distributor, bu the only reason I knew they were used was because they said so. Speakers are in pristine condition with original packaging and manuals.
