Yamaha NS-AW390 Speakers – Free Your Music Outdoors


The outdoors is not exactly a haven for speakers – exposure to sun and rain can easily turn any speakers hoarse and coarse in no time. Not for the new Yamaha NS-AW390. This pair of outdoor speakers is as cozy outside as Bear Grylls is in the jungle. The Yamaha NS-AW390 speakers are made of weather resistant materials and feature aluminum speaker grills and weatherproof speaker terminals. Each of these speakers comes with a 6.5-inch woofer that reproduces high quality midrange and bass. These woofers are constructed using high-compliance polypropylene and are filled with mica – a lightweight, robust, and heat resistant material. The solid and lightweight driver construction also allows it vibrate quickly for a better sound output. Each of these speakers is also outfitted with a 1-inch PEI dome tweeter that produces high and select midrange tones to complete its impressive sound rage. The dome tweeter design allows it to disperse sound over a wide area and produce natural-sounding audio.

The Yamaha NS-AW390 is available in white or black finish. Its finish adds sun and water-damage resistance to the speakers. The neutral color scheme also allows the speakers to blend seamlessly with any home exterior design.
