■Headphones
For private listening and practice headphones are ideal. You don't have to hook up and complete
sound system, and you won't disturb the neighbors no matter how loud or late you play.
Recommended Yamaha headphones for EX monitoring are the HPE-170, HPE-160, or HPE-150
Stereo Headphones. Any standard pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4" stereo phone plug can be
used.
■Instrument Amplifier or Stereo Sound System
The EX voices and effects are designed to sound their best in stereo, so you should always use a
stereo sound system to appreciate the full impact of the EX voices and expressive features. The
OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks can be connected directly to musical instrument amplifiers
designed for keyboard use, or to the line inputs of a mixing console. It is also possible to connect
the outputs directly to the inputs of a multitrack or stereo tape recorder. When connecting to a
mono sound system be sure to use only the OUTPUT L/MONO jack.
Make sure that both the EX and your sound system are turned OFF when making connections.
