SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS

■Mounting the center speaker

Place the speaker on top of the TV or on the floor under the TV or inside the TV rack so that it is stabilized.

When placing the speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the speaker from falling down, put the provided pads at four points on bottom of the speaker.

Notes

•Do not place the speaker on top of the TV whose area is smaller than the bottom area of the speaker. If placed, the speaker may drop out causing an injury to you.

•Though this speaker is a magnetic shielding type, there may be some influence on a TV picture depending on the type of TV or the placement of the speaker. In such a case, place the speaker apart from the TV so that there is no influence on TV picture.

CONNECTIONS

Never plug the AC supply lead of this system into the AC outlet until all connections are completed.

Connecting speakers

(See figure 8 on page 10.)

Connect the provided speakers to the SPEAKERS terminals on the rear of the main unit.

Connect the front speakers (NX-GX70) to the FRONT SPEAKERS terminals, the center speaker (NX-C70) to the CENTER SPEAKERS terminals and the rear speakers (NX- E70) to the REAR SPEAKERS terminals.

Do not connect speakers other than the designated to the respective SPEAKERS terminals.

*Use the provided speaker cords for the connections. Normally, use the short cords to connect with the front speakers, and use the long ones to connect with the rear speakers.

Note on connecting a subwoofer (separate purchase)

You may wish to add a subwoofer to reinforce the bass frequencies.

Connect the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal of the main unit to the INPUT terminal of the subwoofer amplifier, and connect the speaker terminals of the subwoofer amplifier to the subwoofer.

With some subwoofers, including the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, the amplifier and subwoofer are in the same unit.

*The SUBWOOFER OUT terminal is for output to a monaural amplifier driving a subwoofer. Only frequencies below 200 Hz from the front and center channels are output.

How to Connect:

Connect the provided speaker cords to the SPEAKERS terminals properly as shown below. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is correct, that is the + and – markings are observed. If these wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

As a sure method, connect the wire with a silver line to the + terminals on both main unit and speaker, and connect the wire with no line to the – terminals on both of them.

Caution

Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could damage the amplifier and/or speakers.
