Key Features and Specifications
The Yamaha HPH-M82 headphones combine unique aesthetics with reliable audio components.
- Design: They feature unique diamond-shaped housings and an elegant twist in the connecting headband. They are notably lightweight at 150g (0.33 lbs) with the cable, contributing to comfort during long listening sessions. The ear pads are covered in nylon-fiber foam, which provides a snug fit to minimize sound leakage.
- Sound Quality: The headphones utilize newly developed 40 mm (1-5/8") drivers with a unique Tangential Edge diaphragm for a clear, natural, and balanced sound across a wide frequency range (20 Hz - 20 kHz).
- Connectivity: They come with a 1.2m (47-1/4") tangle-resistant flat cable that includes an in-line remote and microphone, compatible with iPhone/iPod/iPad for track selection and calls. A 6.3 mm (1/4") adapter is also included.
- Colors: The HPH-M82 was available in six colors: gold, red, white, black, blue, and brown/burgundy (often referred to as just 'brown' in specs).
Expert and User Opinions
Reviews for the Yamaha HPH-M82 mention its lightweight, spacious sound, but also point out potential comfort and audio performance drawbacks.
- Pros: Reviewers on What Hi-Fi? praised the HPH-M82 for its open and spacious sound and clear detail. Users have also highlighted the good speech quality for phone calls.
- Cons: The primary complaints center around comfort and audio dynamics. The ear cushions are described as flimsy and potentially uncomfortable over time, allowing the hard ear cup outline to be felt. The sound has been noted to lack excitement and punch, with drums lacking bite and bass depth being underwhelming compared to some rivals. The overall plastic finish can feel somewhat cheap.
Purchasing Options
As the Yamaha HPH-M82 model is discontinued by the manufacturer, availability of the "Silver" color may be scarce. New stock is highly limited, and purchases would likely be through remaining retailer inventory or second-hand marketplaces
