Unbelievable


Yamaha really made this statement:

Glossy black piano finish provides improved signal-to-noise performance

I thought I would seek opportunity to hear these speakers, but now I do not think so

Hi,
marketing mixed with emotion and uniqueness.
Lacquer alone on the front baffle has an effect on sound, less deflections? But is black better? Had to be translated to an acoustic benefit apart from visual. I believe they sound good though.

@MC- I’m fairly certain, there was never any plywood, in any of Oni no Hanzō’s swords or spears.            Did they even have plywood, in Sixteenth Century Japan?
Perhaps they use a different material to apply the "Black Piano Gloss" finish on than they use for the other finishes?
