At its heart, the NS-3000 incorporates a 16 cm (6.5 inches) cone woofer and a 3 cm (1.25 inches) dome tweeter. The woofer utilizes Yamaha's patented ZYLON material, known for its high rigidity and excellent acoustic properties, offering clarity and accuracy in the mid-range and bass frequencies. The tweeter also uses ZYLON, combined with a unique acoustic absorber that minimizes unwanted resonance, producing clear and natural high frequencies.

The cabinet is meticulously crafted from high-quality MDF with a luxurious piano black finish, reducing internal vibrations and enhancing sound performance. Yamaha's expertise in traditional Japanese acoustic craftsmanship is evident in the meticulous attention to detail and the structural integrity of the cabinet design. The NS-3000 includes Yamaha's patented R.S. (Resonance Suppression) Chambers, effectively minimizing unwanted cabinet resonance and ensuring pure sound reproduction.

Engineered for audiophiles, the NS-3000 is designed to reproduce sound with remarkable fidelity and depth, offering a frequency response range of 39 Hz to 60 kHz. The speaker is compatible with bi-wiring and features gold-plated terminals, optimizing connectivity and reducing signal loss. Weighing approximately 13.5 kg per unit, the NS-3000 embodies a perfect blend of aesthetic elegance and acoustic excellence, making it an ideal choice for discerning listeners seeking an immersive audio experience.
