Thank you for selecting this YAMAHA subwoofer system.
Please read the following operating precautions before use.
YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any damage and/or
injury caused by not following the cautions below.
1 To assure the finest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
2 Install this unit in a cool, dry, clean place - away from
windows, heat sources, sources of excessive vibration, dust,
moisture and cold. Avoid sources of humming (transformers,
motors).
3 Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact
your dealer.
4 The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on
the rear panel. Using this unit with a higher voltage than
specified is dangerous and may cause a fire and/or electric
shock.
5 To reduce the risk or fire or electric shock, do not expose this
unit to rain or moisture.
6 Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires.
When moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and the
wires connected to other equipments. Never pull the wires
themselves.
7 When not planning to use this unit for a long period (ie.,
vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall
outlet.
8 Since this unit has a built-in power amplifier, heat will radiate
from the rear panel. Place the unit apart from the walls,
allowing at least 20 cm of space above, behind and on both
sides of the unit to prevent fire or damage. Furthermore, do not
position with the rear panel facing down on the floor or other
surfaces.
9 Do not cover the rear panel of this unit with a newspaper, a
tablecloth, a curtain, etc. in order not to obstruct heat radiation.
If the temperature inside the unit rises, it may cause fire,
damage to the unit and/or personal injury.
10 Do not place the following objects on this unit:
- Glass, china, small metallic etc.
If glass etc. falls by vibrations and breaks, it may cause bodily
injury.
- A burning candle etc.
If the candle falls by vibrations, it may cause fire and bodily
injury.
- A vessel with water in it
If the vessel falls by vibrations and water spills, it may cause
damage to the speaker, and/or you may get an electric shock.
11 Do not place this unit where foreign objects such as water drips
might fall. It might cause a fire, damage to this unit, and/or
personal injury.
12 Never put a hand or a foreign object into the YST port located
on the front side of this unit. When moving this unit, do not
hold the port as it might cause personal injury and/or damage
to this unit.
13 Never place a fragile object near the YST port of this unit. If
the object falls or drops by the air pressure, it may cause
damage to the unit and/or personal injury.
14 Never open the cabinet. It might cause an electric shock since
this unit uses a high voltage. It might also cause personal injury
and/or damage to this unit.
15 When using a humidifier, be sure to avoid condensation inside
this unit by allowing enough spaces around this unit or
avoiding excess humidification. Condensation might cause a
fire, damage to this unit, and/or electric shock.
16 Super-bass frequencies reproduced by this unit may cause a
turntable to generate a howling sound. In such a case, move
this unit away from the turntable.
17 This unit may be damaged if certain sounds are continuously
output at high volume level. For example, if 20 Hz-50 Hz sine
waves from a test disc, bass sounds from electronic
instruments, etc. are continuously output, or when the stylus of
a turntable touches the surface of a disc, reduce the volume
level to prevent this unit from being damaged.
18 If you hear distorted noise (i.e., unnatural, intermittent
“rapping” or “hammering” sounds) coming from this unit,
reduce the volume level. Extremely loud playing of a movie
soundtrack’s low frequency, bass-heavy sounds or similarly
loud popular music passages can damage this speaker system.
19 Vibration generated by super-bass frequencies may distort
images on a TV. In such a case, move this unit away from the
TV set.
20 Do not attempt to clean this unit with chemical solvents as this
might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
21 Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section
regarding common operating errors before concluding that the
unit is faulty.
22 Install this unit near the wall outlet and where the AC power
plug can be reached easily.
23 The batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as
sunshine, fire or the like.
24 Secure placement or installation is the owner’s
responsibility. YAMAHA shall not be liable for any
accident caused by improper placement or installation of
speakers.
CAUTION: Read this before operating your unit.
This unit features a magnetically shielded design, but
there is still a chance that placing it too close to a TV set
might impair picture color. Should this happen, move
this unit away from the TV set.
This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source
as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this
unit itself is turned off. In this state, this unit is designed
to consume a very small quantity of power.

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical because bass sound is not highly directional. For a sonorous sound field,
the use of two subwoofers is recommended, although you can obtain a good effect with one subwoofer. ( : subwoofer,
: front speaker)
When using one subwoofer
Place the subwoofer on the outside of either the right or the
left front speaker.
y
If the subwoofer is placed directly facing the wall, the bass
sound may lessen because the sound from the subwoofer
and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel each other
out. To prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer
obliquely to the wall ( or ).
When using two subwoofers
Place the subwoofers on the outside of each front speaker.

instructions to make connections.
Connecting to the speaker cable
1 Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of
insulation from each of the speaker cables.
2 Twist the exposed wires of the cable
together to prevent short circuits.
3 Turn the knob counterclockwise to loosen.
4 Insert the bare wire into the hole in the side
of each terminal.
5 Turn the knob clockwise to tighten.
6 Test the firmness of the connection by
pulling gently on the cable at the terminal.
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other,
because this could damage this unit or the amplifier,
or both of them.
For connection, keep the speaker cables as short as
possible. Do not bundle or roll up the excess part of the
cables. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be
heard from this unit or the speakers, or both of them.
Make sure that the + and – polarity markings of the
speaker terminals are observed and set correctly. If these
cables are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack
bass.
Do not insert the insulation into the hole. The sound may
not be produced.
Banana plug connection
1 Tighten the knob.
2 Insert the banana plug connecter into the
end of the corresponding terminal.

In 1988, Yamaha brought to the speaker systems utilizing
YST (Yamaha Active Servo Technology) to give powerful,
high quality bass reproduction. This technology 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 cabinet capacity 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.

Refer to the chart below when this unit does not function properly. If the problem you are experiencing is not listed below
or if the instructions given below do not help, disconnect the power cord and contact your authorized Yamaha dealer or
service center.
When an excessive level of signal is input to this unit for 5 to 15 minutes, the POWER indicator starts flashing to alarm
you of the danger of damaging the power amplifier and speaker of this unit. If the signal input lasts for 5 minutes more,
this unit turns into the standby mode automatically.
When an enormous amount of signal is input, the power of this unit is turned off immediately. To turn on this unit again,
press STANDBY/ON switch on the front panel.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Cause Remedy
Power is not supplied even though
the STANDBY/ON switch is
pressed.
The power plug is not securely connected. Connect it securely.
The POWER switch is set to the OFF
position.
Set the POWER switch to the ON
position.
No sound. The volume is set to the minimum (0). Raise the volume.
Speaker cables are not connected securely. Connect them securely.
The signals from the amplifier are too low. Increase the volume of the amplifier or the
component connected to the amplifier.
The signal from the subwoofer output
terminal of the amplifier is not output.
Check the speaker mode setting on the
amplifier.
Sound level is too low. Speaker cables are not connected correctly. Connect them correctly, that is L (left) to
L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and
“–” to “–”.
Setting of the phase is not proper. Set the phase to the other position.
A source sound with few bass frequencies is
being played.
Play a source sound with bass
frequencies.
