PRECAUTIONS
• Do not place the speaker where it is liable to be knocked over or struck by falling objects.
Stable placement will also ensure better sound performance.
• Placing the speaker on the same shelf or rack as the turntable can result in feedback.
• Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your amplifier to a lower setting.
Never allow your amplifier to be driven into "clipping". Otherwise the speaker may be
damaged.
• When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher than the nominal input power of
the speaker, care should be taken never to exceed the speaker's maximum input.
• Do not attempt to clean the speaker with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish.
Use a clean, dry cloth.
• Do not attempt to modify or fix the speaker. Contact qualified Yamaha service personnel
when any service is needed. The cabinet should never be opened for any reasons.
• As this unit is heavy, whenever it is moved, two people are required to transport it safely.
• Placing the speaker too close to a CRT-type TV may impair the picture color or cause a
buzzing noise. In this case, move the speaker away from the TV. This is not an issue with
LCD and plasma TVs.
Secure placement or installation is the owner's responsibility. Yamaha shall
•
not be liable for any accident caused by improper placement or installation of
the speaker.

each other as this could damage the speaker
or the amplifier.
• Make sure you connect the speakers with
the correct polarity—positive (+) terminals
to positive (+) terminals, and negative (-)

get them crossed over, the sound will be
unnatural and lack bass.

Caution
• The required length of a screw differs depending on the mounting bracket to
be used. Select a screw which is suitable for use with the mounting bracket
and can be fully inserted into the hole on the speaker.
• As this product is heavy, do not attach them to thin plywoods or soft wall
surface materials, as the screws may tear free from flimsy surfaces, causing
the speaker to fall and be damaged, or result in personal injury.
• Do not fasten the speaker to the ceiling with nails, adhesives, or other
unsound hardware. Long-term use and vibrations may cause them to pull
free.
• To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose speaker cables, fix
these to the wall along with the speaker.
