Released in 1974 and featuring the world's first pure beryllium diaphragm, the NS-1000/1000M won worldwide acclaim for its clear and open sound. Today it is still regarded as one of the best speakers ever designed and built. Stars of the show, the way ahead of its time Beryllium tweeters and Mid range drivers. Congratulations Yamaha and to designer Akira Nakamura for delivering this audio master piece.
When I first heard them on demo in the mid 80's I was hooked but they were way beyond my pay grade. I eventually bought a single owner pair from someone I knew well. In my opinion one of the best speakers and they not going anywhere.
