4.0 out of 5 stars 390 vs 350, May 8, 2009

I compared these to the NS-AW350BL side-by-side and I found that the 390's definitely sound like a smaller speaker. The bass in the 390's did not live up to my expectations after having the 350's. The high frequencies sound great on both of these sets of speakers, and I recommend both of them to anyone who wants a great value for a set of fantastic sounding indoor/outdoor speakers.

I purchased these from Wholesale AV, which I would highly recommend. I really only had other reviews to go by. Since the other older models received such high reviews, decided to go with the newer. They get the thumbs up from me. They have reasonable lows and nice crisp highs. Remember that if you're mounting these outside, you won't get the bass you're used to inside your home where there are better acoustics. I love being in my backyard way more than ever, either working or just relaxing. You'll look for excuses to just be outside!
I play internet radio through my computer & have a headphone to stero rca adapter going to my amplifier & from the amp I ran telephone line through the attic to the other side of the house, & just outside my patio I installed a stereo volume control purchased from Radio Shack for $40.00, & from in-wall volume control to the speakers mounted about 15' apart..just under the eave. You will need 4 screws to mount the bracket. I have hardy plank siding & used 2.5" wood screws. If you don't have speakers in your backyard, don't wait any longer. It's a great investment and you and your friends will love them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Careful with the grilles, May 18, 2010

The Yamaha NS-AW390 is a very good choice for a fairly compact, wired, outdoor speaker. The sound is about as good as you could expect in an outdoor setting from something in a package this size.

I noted two issues/cautions regarding the design:
- Be extra careful handling them until you get them mounted, as the protruding grille is formed from thin perforated sheet metal. It doesn't take much of a bump to dent/deform the grille, and then you're stuck with it, as the sealed cabinet prevents access to the back of the grille, precluding any easy/non-destructive way to pop the dent out.
- The terminal clamps don't provide a very firm grip on the wire ends - it's too easy to pull the inserted wire out of the clamp. (Screw terminals might have been a better design choice.) They're fine once mounted and connected, but connections can be flaky while moving the speaker around to adjust the angle within the mounting bracket. (I used 16 gage stranded wire - like lightweight lamp cord.)
