Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha TX6n, TX5n, TX4n Power Amplifier. In order
to take full advantage of the TX6n/TX5n/TX4n’s (TXn) functionality and to ensure
trouble-free operation, please read this owner’s manual carefully before use. After you
have read the manual, keep it in a safe place for reference when needed.

Features

The TXn series are high audio quality, high efficiency, high reliability, low impedance drive power amplifiers that
utilize Yamaha’s famed DSP and digital audio networking technology.

Flexible support for analog and digital audio formats

In addition to two-channel analog input, these amplifiers come with an AES/EBU card installed in their MY card slot,
allowing digital signals to be input and output. Separately sold MY cards can be installed in this MY slot to support a vari-
ety of digital audio formats.

Monitor and control from Amp Editor

By connecting a computer in which the “Amp Editor” application software is installed, the computer can be used to monitor
the TXn units, or to control the TXn units such as switching the amplifier power’s Standby/On and mute status. This moni-
toring and control can also be performed from the panel of the TXn unit.

Versatile speaker processing

Since signal processors such as equalizer, delay, and crossover are built in, the use of external equipment can be minimized.
These can be controlled from the panel of the TXn unit or via Amp Editor. Speaker processor libraries created on the
Yamaha DME series or the SP2060 can also be used.

About Setup

Attaching the handles

You can attach the handles to the amplifier using the supplied flat-head screws.
Follow the steps below to attach the handles:
1. Remove the rack mount brackets.
2. Attach the handles to the amplifier by tightening the flat-head screws into the four screw holes for each handle.
3. Replace the rack mount brackets.

Adjusting the position in the rack

If there is insufficient space between the rear of the amplifier and the rack, you can adjust the position of the rack mount
brackets so that the front panel of the amplifier protrudes from the front of the rack by 22 mm.
