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

@tatyana:'Some years ago I read a number of articles that different varnishes can affect sound, so maybe not too far fetched' 
I understand that both the wood grain and the lacquers on a Stradivarius or Guarneri violin are a significant part of the sound, understandable when the whole body resonates with the strings. For a speaker, with inert cabinets (at least by intent) not so much!
