Enceinte murale Yamaha VXS3S

Low-frequency Enhancement Methods

A number of methods are used to enhance low frequency response in speaker enclosures. In bass reflex designs, a tuned port in the enclosure boosts low frequencies emanating from the rear of the speaker unit. The VXS10S adopts this method, specializing in more powerful low frequency reproduction. The problem with this approach is that as the enclosure becomes smaller or thinner, the size of the port must be reduced accordingly, resulting in increased resistance and correspondingly reduced bass enhancement. Bass reflex designs are not always suitable for compact enclosures.

Passive radiator designs avoid the use of a port, instead boosting bass response with a tuned passive “drone cone.” The passive radiator method is more suitable for compact enclosures, but the passive cone tends to be heavy, requiring some form of firm, durable suspension that can reduce efficiency. The directivity of the passive radiator also places restrictions on where and how the system can be installed.

Original Yamaha SR-Bass™ technology employed in the VXS3S suspends a four-sided diaphragm on only one of its sides, using the resonance of the diaphragm to enhance the system’s low-frequency output. There are no limitations on the shape and materials used for the diaphragm, making SR-Bass™ technology applicable to a wide range of speaker designs, including compact models.

Yamaha offers 2 choices. That is compact VXS3S and powerful VXS10S. Please select the best model for your application.

Satellite Connectors Optimize Balance

The VXS3S and VXS10S have satellite connectors on the rear panel, minimizing the number of amplifier channels required to get a system up and running. And since the VXS3S and VXS10S support high-impedance connections, it is possible to connect low-impedance satellites while the subwoofer is connected to a high-impedance system, for example. A built-in high-pass filter is automatically applied to the satellite speakers, providing exceptionally smooth, natural frequency crossover from subwoofer to satellites.

Flexible Installation Options

In addition to the supplied wall-mounting hardware, a variety of optional hardware allows VXS series “S” models to be mounted in a number of ways. The VXS10S can be placed on the floor or mounted on a wall or ceiling, while the VXS3S additionally allows flush ceiling mounting.

Exemple système 1 : Café

The VXS1ML and VXS3S system is ideal for BGM application such as cafe where just a few speakers will be used to cover the service area. Wide dispersion allows effective coverage with a minimum number of speakers. It can be installed easily and quickly with satellite connection.

System Example 2: Cafe 2

This is a flexible system that can control the mid-high and the low frequency range separately. You can flexibly adjust the balance according to your preference and sound source.

Exemple système 3 : Restaurant

This is a system that connected VXS3S with high impedance and constructed multiple satellites. You can easily change the required volume by switching the output W number by tapping.

Exemple système 4 : Magasin

This is a system that connected VXS3S with high impedance and constructed multiple satellites. You can easily change the required volume by switching the output W number by tapping. The MA2120 can deliver different sources at different volumes in the respective zone.
