FEATURES
● This subwoofer system employs Advanced
YAMAHA Active Servo Technology which YAMAHA
has developed for reproducing higher quality
super-bass sound. (Refer to page 12 for details on
Advanced YAMAHA Active Servo Technology.) This
super-bass sound adds a more realistic, theater-in-
the-home effect to your stereo system.
● This subwoofer can be easily added to your
existing audio system by connecting to either the
speaker terminals or the line output (pin jack)
terminals of the amplifier.
● For the effective use of this unit, this unit’s super-
bass sound should be matched to the sounds of
your main speakers. You can create the best sound
quality for various listening conditions by using the
HIGH CUT control and the PHASE switch.
● The Automatic power-switching function saves you
the trouble of pressing the STANDBY/ON button to
turn the power on and off.
● You can select bass effect suitable for the source
by using the BASS switch.
QD-Bass Technology
QD-Bass (Quatre Dispersion Bass) technology uses
square, pyramid-shaped reflective plates to radiate the
sound in four horizontal directions.

PLACEMENT
One subwoofer will have a good effect on your audio
system, however, the use of two subwoofers is
recommended to obtain more effect.
If using one subwoofer, it is recommended to place it on the
outside of either the right or the left main speaker. (See fig.
Å.) If using two subwoofers, it is recommended to place
them on the outside of each main speaker. (See fig. ı.) The
placement shown in fig. Ç is also possible, however, if the
subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the
bass effect may die because the sound from it and the
sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. To
prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer system at
an angle as in fig. Å or ı.
Note
There may be a case that you cannot obtain enough super-bass
sounds from the subwoofer when listening in the center of the
room. This is because “standing waves” have been developed
between two parallel walls and they cancel the bass sounds.
In such a case, face the subwoofer obliquely to the wall. It also
may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces by placing
bookshelves etc. along the walls.
( : subwoofer, : main speaker)
Use the nonskid pads
Put the provided nonskid pads at the four corners on the
bottom of the subwoofer to prevent the subwoofer from
moving by vibrations etc.

When you play a source, the power of the subwoofer turns
on automatically by sensing audio signals input to the
subwoofer. On the other hand, the subwoofer automatically
switches to the standby mode if the source being played is
stopped or the input signal is cut off for a few minutes.
This function operates by sensing a certain level of low
frequency input signal. Its sensitivity is high in the HIGH
position and low in the LOW position of the AUTO
STANDBY switch. Set this switch to the position you prefer.
In the HIGH position, the power will turn on even with a low
level of input signal. But please be aware that the subwoofer
may not switch to the standby mode when there is an
extremely low input signal.
* The power might turn on unexpectedly by sensing noise
from other appliances. If that occurs, set the AUTO
STANDBY switch to the OFF or LOW position.
* The level of low frequency input signal differs with each
source and among different parts within the same source.
This means that the function may not operate properly on
some sources.
This function is available only when the power of the
subwoofer is on (by setting the STANDBY/ON button to
“ON”).
7 BASS switch

ADVANCED YAMAHA ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY
The theory of Yamaha Active Servo Technology has been
based upon two major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and
negative-impedance drive. Active Servo Processing
speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air
woofer”, which is a port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet.
This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions
of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system.
Thus, signals of low amplitude within the cabinet can,
according to the Helmholtz resonance theory, be outputted
from this opening as waves of great amplitude if the size of
the opening and the volume of the cabinet are in the correct
proportion to satisfy a certain ratio.
In order to accomplish this, moreover, the amplitudes within
the cabinet must be both precise and of sufficient power
because these amplitudes must overcome the “load”
presented by the air that exists within the cabinet.
Thus it is this problem that is resolved through the
employment of a new design in which the amplifier supplies
special signals. If the electrical resistance of the voice coil
could be reduced to zero, the movement of the speaker unit
would become linear with respect to signal voltage. To
accomplish this, a special negative-impedance output-drive
amplifier for subtracting output impedance of the amplifier is
used.
By employing negative-impedance drive circuits, the
amplifier is able to generate precise, low-amplitude, low-
frequency waves with superior damping characteristics.
These waves are then radiated from the cabinet opening as
high-amplitude signals. The system can, therefore, by
employing the negative-impedance output drive amplifier
and a speaker cabinet with the Helmholtz resonator,
reproduce an extremely wide range of frequencies with
amazing sound quality and less distortion.
The features described above, then, are combined to be the
fundamental structure of the conventional Yamaha Active
Servo Technology.
Our new Active Servo Technology — Advanced Yamaha
Active Servo Technology — adopted Advanced Negative
Impedance Converter (ANIC) circuits, which allows the
conventional negative impedance converter to dynamically
vary in order to select an optimum value for speaker
impedance variation. With this new ANIC circuits, Advanced
Yamaha Active Servo Technology can provide more stable
performance and improved sound pressure compared with
the conventional Yamaha Active Servo Technology, resulting
in more natural and dynamic bass reproduction.
