Yamaha Releases MSP3A Compact Powered Reference Monitors

Published 13th January, 2021

Yamaha has introduced a new monitor speaker: the MSP3A. The newest addition to the professional audio line-up builds on the convenience and performance of its predecessor, the MSP3.

Faithful Sound Reproduction

The highlight features are its compact design, straightforward operation and high quality audio. It also features the Twisted Flare Port that delivers a clearer bass. It features a 22-watt in built amplifier that results in a faithful sound reproduction making it an ideal choice for smaller studios and post-production setups. The cabinet weighs 3.6 KG making it a portable and much-loved choice.

Versatile Inputs & Controls

Like the MSP3, the MSP3A also has multiple inputs connectors and controls and is compatible with many optional brackets making it useful and versatile. In addition to a combo XLR/TRS connectors that allows direct input from a +4 dB mixer or other professional equipment, the MSP3A provides TRS and RCA jacks for convenient connection to electronic instruments and other audio devices.

Twisted Flair Port Technology

For the first time ever, the Twisted Flair Port technology, an aerodynamic sound control technology patented by Yamaha, makes a debut in this series. It controls noise generation mechanisms, adds air flow turbulence to both ends making the port flair or widen from input to output and adds a twist to it. Suppressing the turbulence in this manner reduces the muddiness in sound and manages the amount of noise at port ends delivering tight frequencies that stay true to pitch and rhythm. 

This device is a find for those looking to monitor electronic instruments and surround reproduction. It is versatile, compact, with a beautiful design that takes the best from its predecessor and builds on that even further.
