Power Indicator; Connecting The Power Cables; Using The Subwoofer; Setting The Subwoofer Volume - Yamaha NS-PA40 Mode D'emploi

Caution
• To move the front speaker to another location, grasp
both the Base and Bottom.
• If a cable comes off a notch, affix the cable into the
notch using adhesive tape.
• Make sure that children do not lean on the speaker.
Otherwise, it may tip over, possibly resulting in
personal injury.
■ Connecting the speakers
Connect each speaker to the appropriate speaker
terminals on your amplifier by using the cables you
prepared earlier. See the "Connection diagram" on
page 4 for reference.
Make sure you connect the speakers with the correct
polarity—positive (+) terminals to positive (+)
terminals, and negative (–) terminals to negative (–)
terminals. If you get them crossed over, the sound will
be unnatural and lack bass.

Rear panel
In your AV receiver's speaker size settings, specify
small (or "S") for all of the NS-PA40 speakers.
If you're connecting the subwoofer to a Yamaha DSP
amplifier or AV receiver, connect to its SUBWOOFER
or LOW PASS output.

Connecting the power cables

Once you've completed all of the speaker and
subwoofer connections, plug the subwoofer, amplifier,
and your other AV components into suitable AC wall
outlets.
Remove all protective sheet from the unit before use.

Setting the subwoofer volume

The very first time you use the subwoofer, you need to
set the volume balance between the subwoofer and the
front speakers as follows.
1
Turn on your other AV components.
2
Set the subwoofer's VOLUME control to
minimum (0).
3
Set the subwoofer's POWER switch to ON.
The power indicator on the rear panel lights up.
4
Play a audio source that contains low-
frequency bass sounds. Set the amplifier's
volume control to a suitable level.
5
Turn the subwoofer's VOLUME control up
gradually until you achieve a good balance
between the subwoofer and the other
speakers.
Note
• Once the subwoofer volume has been set, you can
leave the subwoofer's VOLUME control set as it is
and use your amplifier's volume control to adjust the
volume of the entire system.
• If you replace the front speakers (NS-F40) with
other speakers, you will need to re-adjust the
subwoofer's volume.
