FEATURES

This subwoofer system employs YAMAHA Active Servo Technology which YAMAHA developed for reproducing higher quality super-bass sound. (Refer to page 11 for details on Active Servo Technology.) This unit does not only enhance bass frequency response of sound output in your audio system, but, by reproducing the bass frequencies, the subwoofer permits your existing amplifier and speakers to operate under less strenuous conditions, improving overall system performance.
This unit can be added easily to your existing audio system by connecting to either the speaker terminals or the line output (pin jack) terminals of the amplifier. For the effective use of this unit, this units super-bass sound must be matched to the sounds of your main speakers. Therefore, this unit employs a continuously variable high frequency cut-off point (HIGH CUT) control. Moreover, the PHASE switch allows you to select the best sound quality for various listening conditions. A newly employed AUTO POWER ON/OFF switch saves you the trouble of pressing the POWER switch when turning the power on and off.

PLACEMENT

: subwoofer,
: main speaker) One subwoofer will have a good effect on your audio system, however, the use of two subwoofers is recommended to obtain more presence. Note There may be a case that you cannot obtain enough superbass sounds from this unit when listening at the middle of the room. This is because standing waves have developed between two parallel walls and the bass sounds are being canceled. In such a case, face the unit obliquely to the wall. It also may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces by placing bookshelves etc. along the walls.

If using one subwoofer, it is recommended to place it on the outside of either the right or the left main speaker. (See fig. A.) If using two subwoofers, it is recommended to place them on the outside of each main speaker. (See fig. B.) The placement shown in fig. C is also possible, however, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the bass effect may die because the sound from it and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel. To prevent this, face the subwoofer system obliquely to the wall as shown in fig. A or B.

CONNECTIONS

Before attempting to make any connections to or from this unit, be sure to first switch OFF the power to this unit and to any other components to which connections are being made. When making connections between this unit and other components, be sure all connections are made correctly and consistently, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, + to + and to. This unit can be connected to either the speaker terminals or the line output (pin jack) terminals of the amplifier. Choose one of the ways shown below according to your audio system. Also, refer to the owners manual for each component to be connected to this unit.

For connections, cut the speaker wires as short as possible. 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, + and markings are observed. If these wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and will lack bass. Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch the metal parts of this unit as this could damage this unit, your amplifier and/or speakers. * Banana Plug connections are also possible (except for U.K. and Europe models). Simply insert the Banana Plug connector into the corresponding terminal.
How to Connect: Red: positive (+) Black: negative ()
Unscrew the knob. Insert the bare wire.
[Remove approx. 5mm (1/4) insulation from the speaker wires.] Tighten the knob and secure the wire.
CONNECTING TO LINE OUTPUT (PIN JACK) TERMINALS OF THE AMPLIFIER

Leave the main speakers connected to the amplifier. Amplifier line output terminals are generally labeled PRE OUT or SUBWOOFER OUT. * For PRE OUT terminal connection, the amplifier must possess at least two sets of PRE OUT terminals. With some amplifiers with only one set of PRE OUT terminals, connection can result in no sound from the main left and right speakers. In this case, select the method of connecting to the speaker terminals. To connect with a YAMAHA DSP amplifier, connect the LOW PASS (or SUBWOOFER etc.) terminal on the rear of the DSP amplifier to either the left (L) or right (R) INPUT 2 terminal.

POWER HIGH CUT VOLUME POWER

HIGH CUT VOLUME

Set the VOLUME control to minimum. Turn on the power supply to all the components. Play any source and adjust the amplifiers volume control to the desired listening level. Turn up the VOLUME control gradually to adjust the volume balance between this unit and the main speakers. Adjust the HIGH CUT control to the position where the desired response can be obtained. Set the PHASE switch to the position (NOM or REV) where the optimum bass effect can be obtained. Notes Once the volume balance between this unit and the main speakers is adjusted, you can adjust the volume of your whole sound system by using only the amplifiers volume control. For adjusting the VOLUME control, the HIGH CUT control and the PHASE switch, refer to FREQUENCY CHARACTERISTICS on the next page.
For effective adjustment of the HIGH CUT control
First set this control at about the main speakers rated minimum reproduceable frequency. Then turn up the VOLUME control gradually and set it at a level where you can obtain a little more bass effect than when this unit is not used. On the basis of this setting, if desired, adjust the VOLUME control and the HIGH CUT control again. * The main speakers minimum reproduceable frequency can be looked up in the speakers catalog or owners manual.
FREQUENCY CHARACTERISTICS

ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY
The theory of Active Servo Technology is based upon two major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and negativeimpedance drive. Active Servo Processing speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an air woofer, which is a port or opening in the speakers cabinet. This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system. Thus, signals of low amplitude within the cabinet can, according to the Helmholtz resonance theory, be output from this opening as waves of great amplitude if the design is such that the size of the opening and the volume of the cabinet are in the correct proportion to satisfy a certain ratio. In order to accomplish this, moreover, the amplitudes within the cabinet must be both precise and of sufficient power because these amplitudes must overcome the load presented by the air that exists within the cabinet. Thus it is this problem that is resolved through the employment of a design in which the amplifier functions to supply special signals. If the electrical resistance of the voice coil could be reduced to zero, the movement of the speaker unit would become linear with respect to signal voltage, and, to accomplish this, a special negative-impedance output-drive amplifier for subtracting output impedance of the amplifier is used. By employing negative-impedance drive circuits, the amplifier is able to generate precise, low-amplitude low-frequency waves with superior damping characteristics, and these waves are then radiated from the cabinet opening as high-amplitude signals. The system can, therefore, by employing the negative-impedance output drive amplifier and a speaker cabinet with the Helmholtz resonator, reproduce an extremely wide range of frequencies with amazing sound quality and less distortion. The features described above, then, are combined to be the fundamental structure of the Active Servo Technology.
