They're talking about Yamaha NS10's which started off as hifi speakers which found their way into studios (in much the same way as AR18's did in earlier years). Yamaha then produced a studio oriented version.
You need to understand them to use them effectively - they're good for adjusting vocal balances but bass light. If you want to check bass levels on them then at least the white cone makes it easy to see how much they're moving. In our studio they were replaced with LS3/5a's which are more accurate and easier to use although they still retain most of the good qualities of the Yamahas.
