Connecting To The Input1/Output Terminals Of The Subwoofer; System Connections - Yamaha NS-SW1000 Owner's Manual

Connecting to the INPUT1/OUTPUT
terminals of the subwoofer
Note
• Make sure that the "+" and "–" polarity markings of the
speaker cables are observed and set correctly. If these cables
are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other, because
this could damage the subwoofer or the amplifier.
• If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the
subwoofer or the speakers. Do not insert the insulation into
the hole. Sound may not be produced.
• To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose
speaker cables, fix them to the floor.
