a serious rival to the five-star KEF LS50 Wireless II . The new NX-70
speakers bring features and materials from Yamaha's flagship products and musical instruments, and they are designed to work with all kinds of audio including from your TV.
They're good looking too, with solid aluminum tops, copper accents and gently rounded cabinets. That isn't just cosmetic: the shape minimizes internal standing waves and the 5mm thick aluminum plate suppresses resonance.
The speakers connect to each other wirelessly and you can stream to them via Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Google Cast, AirPlay 2 and from other sources via Yamaha's own MusicCast app. The speakers are Roon compatible and they include an HDMI eARC/ARC port with CEC control for your television.

The wonderfully named Harmonious Diaphragm system blends Zylon polymer, which is also used in Yamaha's flagship speakers, with spruce wood; that's the wood Yamaha uses in its grand piano soundboards. According to Yamaha the result is "a consistent tone over the entire frequency spectrum" that delivers instruments and vocals "naturally and with remarkable musicality."

The NX-70As also feature Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimizer, which is Yamaha's own room calibration system. It uses an included microphone to measure the sound of your room or other space and then adjusts the sonic characteristics accordingly so you don't have to worry about perfect speaker placement.
The Yamaha NX-70A speakers will be available from July 2026 with a
recommended retail price of 2,587 (about $3,475 / AU$4,870). Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.
