In 1988, Yamaha brought to the marketplace speaker systems utilizing YST (Yamaha Active Servo Technology) to give

powerful, high quality bass reproduction. This technique uses a direct connection between the amplifier and speaker,

allowing accurate signal transmission and precise speaker control.

As this technology uses speaker units controlled by

the negative impedance drive of the amplifier and

resonance generated between the speaker cabinet

volume and port, it creates more resonant energy

(the “air woofer” concept) than the standard bass

reflex method. This allows for bass reproduction

from much smaller cabinets than was previously

possible.

Yamaha’s newly developed Advanced YST II adds

many refinements to Yamaha Active Servo

Technology, allowing better control of the forces

driving the amplifier and speaker. From the

amplifier’s point of view, the speaker impedance

changes depending on the sound frequency. Yamaha

developed a new circuit design combining negative-

impedance and constant-current drives, which

provides a more stable performance and clear bass

reproduction, without any murkiness.

Today’s bass reflex speakers use a Helmholtz resonator to improve their

bass reproduction.

However when reproducing bass that is in the frequency region of this

Helmholtz resonator, air moves violently in and out through the port

between the interior and exterior of the speaker, sometimes producing

noise due to the turbulent air flow at the end of the port.

The port and the cabinet resonate at a frequency that is determined by their

dimensions and shape. On the other hand, turbulence in the air flow at the

end of the port contains a broad range of frequency components that are not

present in the input signal. This noise occurs because the broad range of

frequency components includes components that match the resonant

frequencies of the port and cabinet, causing strong resonance.

The Twisted Flare Port developed by Yamaha changes the

way in which the port widens toward its end, and also adds

a “twist” to suppress airflow turbulence at each end of the

port and thus prevent noise from occurring.

This substantially reduces the “muddy sound” and “wind

noise” that until now have been characteristic of bass

reflex speakers, allowing bass to be reproduced clearly.

PARTS AND THEIR

FUNCTIONS

10 En

Since the low-end frequencies of audio signals feature long wavelengths, they are almost non-directional to human ears.

The super-bass range does not create a stereo image. Therefore, a single subwoofer may be enough to produce a high-

quality super-bass sound.

NOTICE

● Placing the subwoofer too close to a CRT-type TV may impair the picture color or cause a buzzing noise. In this case,

place the subwoofer and TV at a separated position where these effects do not occur. This is not an issue with LCD and

plasma TVs.

● If the speaker volume is very loud, furniture or window glass may resonate and the subwoofer itself may vibrate. In

this case, lower the volume level. To limit resonance, use a thick curtain or similar cloth that tends to absorb sound

vibrations effectively. Also, changing the subwoofer position may be helpful.

● This unit’s speaker uses magnets. Devices that are affected by magnetism (CRT televisions, clocks, bank cards, etc.)

must not be placed on or near this unit.
