SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS Before making connections, place all speakers in their respective positions. The positioning of the speakers is important because it controls the whole sound quality of this system. Place the speakers depending on your listening position by following the instructions below. Speaker configuration Placing speakers This speaker package employs a 6 speaker configuration: 2 main speakers, 2 rear speakers, a center speaker and a subwoofer.
m Mounting the main and center speakers Place the main speakers on a rack or on a shelf. Place the center speaker on top of the TV, on a shelf or inside the TV rack so that it is stable. To obtain more stability and usefulness, we recommend that you mount these speakers on the provided mounting brackets (type A). 1 Mounting bracket (type A) Screw (type A) To mount the speakers on the mounting brackets (type A) 1 Attach the bracket to the bottom of the speaker by using the provided screw (type A).

CONNECTIONS Caution: Plug in the subwoofer and other audio/video components after all connections are completed.
● Connect the main, center and rear speakers to the speaker output terminals of your amplifier with the provided speaker cords. * The provided speaker cords have labels marked FRONT L, FRONT R, CENTER, REAR L or REAR R. Connect each speaker cord to the corresponding speaker by following the figure on page 6. * Connect each speaker making sure not to reverse the polarity (+, –). If the speaker is connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
m How to connect speaker cords to the input and output terminals of the speakers For connections, keep the speaker cords as short as possible. Do not bundle or roll up the excess part of the cords. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Main/center/rear speakers How to Connect: One side of the provided speaker cord has a white broken line and the other side has no line.
m Connecting the subwoofer to speaker output terminals of the amplifier If your amplifier has only one set of main speaker output terminals Connect the speaker output terminals of the amplifier to the INPUT1 terminals of the subwoofer, and connect the OUTPUT terminals of the subwoofer to the main speakers.

Automatic power-switching function If the source being played is stopped and the input signal is cut off for 7 to 8 minutes, the subwoofer automatically switches to the standby mode. (When the subwoofer switches to the standby mode, the power indicator lights up in red.) When you play a source again, the power of the subwoofer turns on automatically by sensing audio signals input to the subwoofer. This function operates by sensing a certain level of low frequency input signal.
ADVANCED YAMAHA ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY (for SW-P201) The theory of Yamaha Active Servo Technology has been based upon two major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and negative-impedance drive. Active Servo Processing speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air woofer”, which is a port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet. This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system.
