Introduction

Features

•This subwoofer system employs Advanced Yamaha Active Servo Technology II which Yamaha has developed for reproducing higher quality super-bass sound. (Refer to page 5 for details on Advanced Yamaha Active Servo Tech- nology II) This super bass sound adds a more realistic, theater-in-the-home effect to your ste- reo system.

•This subwoofer system is equipped with a linear port unique to Yamaha that provides smooth bass response during playback, minimizing extraneous noise not included in the original input signal.

Supplied accessories

Please confirm that the following item is included in the package.

Non-skid pads

Subwoofer cable

(1 set, 4 pieces)

(5 m)

Positioning the subwoofer

It is recommended to place it on the outside of either the right or the left front speaker. (See fig.

A.) The placement shown in fig. B is also possible, however, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the bass effect may lessen because the sound from it and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. To prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer system at an angle as in fig. A .

AB

Use the non-skid pads

Put the provided non-skid pads at the four corners on the bottom of the subwoofer to prevent the subwoofer from moving by vibrations etc.

Note

There may be a case that you cannot obtain enough super-bass sounds from the subwoofer when listening in the center of the room. This is because “standing waves” have been developed between two parallel walls and they cancel the bass sounds.

In such a case, face the subwoofer obliquely to the wall. It also may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces by placing bookshelves etc. along the walls.
