Smile Yamaha NS-5000 Speakers are here in the USA NOW!

The long wait is over now you can buy them here for 15K with Speaker stands!

I might buy a pair if I can get a good price on a show demo.

Does the new-to-the-USA Yamaha gear have something to do with the Belles component?

Not at all... other than both being on Rick's list in his continual search for high value products.

Had a Yamaha m/bike awhile back, that was only £2.6K however. The mid fi princes are reachin' high with this confection and no mistake.

Not at all. You just seem to be primping it in unrelated threads. Especially as it has not been released so is 'unheard' at this point...........

Awesome speakers. I head them at the Montreal Audio Show and they sound as good as they look. A modern speaker with a vintage twist. I like the blend of both. These speakers (and their amplifiers) are what got me into Yamaha, the more vintage stuff. Before that, I believed they were just making home cinema junk.
