Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit 

you’ve just purchased is only the start of your 

musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how 

you can maximize the fun and excitement your 

equipment  offers. This manufacturer and the 

Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer 

Electronics Group want you to get the most out of 

your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that 

lets the sound come through loud and clear without 

annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, 

without affecting your sensitive hearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing 

“comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. 

So what sounds  “normal” can actually be loud and 

harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by 

setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your 

hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level: 

•  Start your volume control at a low setting.

•  Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it 

comfortably and   clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound 

level:

•  Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent 

hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we 

want you listening for a lifetime.

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime 

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will 

provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since 

hearing damage from loud noise is often 

undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer 

and the Electronic Industries Association’s 

Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid 

prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of 

sound levels is included for your protection.

Decibel

Level Example

  30 

Quiet library, soft whispers

 40  Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic

  50 

Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office

  60 

Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine

  70 

Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant

 80  Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock 

at two feet.

THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS  

UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE

 90  Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower

  100  Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill

  120  Rock band concert in front of speakers, 

thunderclap

  140  Gunshot blast, jet plane

  180  Rocket launching pad

Before you start

• The nominal impedance of this speaker system is 6 

Ω

Connect the speaker system to an amplifier with a load 

impedance ranging from 6 

Ω

 to 16 

Ω

 (a model with “6

Ω

– 

16

Ω

” displayed on the speaker output terminals).

In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting 

from input overload, please observe the following precautions:

• Do not supply power to the speaker system in excess of the 

maximum permissible input.

• When using a graphic equalizer to emphasize loud sounds in 

the high-frequency range, do not use excessive amplifier 

volume.

• Do not try to force a low-powered amplifier to produce loud 

volumes of sound (the amplifier’s harmonic distortion will be 

increased, and you may damage the speaker).

Caution: installation

• When placing this unit, ensure that it is firmly secured and 

avoid areas where it may be likely to fall and cause injury in the 

event of a natural disaster (such as an earthquake).

• Do not attach these speakers to the wall or ceiling. They may 

fall off and cause injury.

• Do not install your speakers overhead on the ceiling or wall. If 

improperly attached, the speaker grille can fall and cause 

damage or personal injury.

• Switch off and unplug your AV equipment and consult the 

instructions when connecting up components. Make sure you 

use the correct connecting cables.

Caution: in use

• Do not place the speaker on an unstable surface. It could 

present a hazard if it falls, as well as damaging the equipment.

• Do not use the speaker to output distorted sound for long 

periods of times. This can result in a fire hazard.

• Do not sit or stand on the speaker, or let children play on the 

speaker.

• Do not put large or heavy objects on top of the speaker.

• Do not place magnetic objects such as screwdrivers or iron 

parts near the tweeter or midrange. Since the speakers use 

strong magnets, the objects may be attracted, causing injury 

or damaging the diaphragm.

About the EX series

The EX series, incorporating the abundant technological know-how behind Pioneer’s flagship TAD speaker series, was developed 

with the goal of creating the ultimate speaker possible in its price range.

The design and production of the EX series result from an international effort that represents the finest in Pioneer’s speaker technology.

Technology behind the S-8EX

CST

The core driver of the system is the Coherent Source Transducer 

(CST), which draws on the technology used in TAD. The tweeter 

diaphragm is mounted concentrically within the apex of the 

midrange cone and provides a point source of sound from 

400 Hz to 100 kHz. The CST ensures a perfect spectral balance 

between the direct and reflected sounds that arrive at the 

listener’s ears, providing a more consistent sound throughout the 

listening room and improved imaging capability.

Ceramic Graphite Diaphragm

The CST’s tweeter features a ceramic graphite diaphragm that 

provides top-level strength and dampening characteristics that 

are practically unrivaled by any other available materials currently 

used in high-end audio speaker systems. Ceramic graphite’s 

lightness and exceptional strength combine to create speakers 

whose diaphragm resonance can be pushed far beyond their 

audible range. 

Magnesium Alloy Diaphragm

The CST’s midrange features a magnesium alloy diaphragm 

whose characteristic lightness and high inner loss provide 

excellent transience and minimal coloration of midrange sounds.

Bass Drivers

The bass driver pictured below serves as the foundation of the 

S-8EX speaker system. The driver’s strength is the result of the 

Aramid/Carbon composite material, originally created during the 

development of the S-1EX, that is used in its diaphragm. Pioneer’s 

exclusive LDMC magnetic circuit technology has been 

incorporated in order to preserve linearity from low to high output 

levels and minimize distortion. 

Bass Enclosure Construction

The unique form of the S-8EX is based upon logical necessity. In 

order to synchronize the arrival time of sound from the CST and 

the two bass drivers, each driver is mounted upon a baffle that 

serves to create a highly delicate curve known as the “precision 

curve” (see illustration below). Made of up to 65 mm thick MDF 

(Medium Density Fiberboard), this baffle is, moreover, strong 

enough to contain the force of the drivers. Additionally, the bass 

port has been carved out of an extremely thick block of MDF, 

resulting in the reduction of wind noise for clear, deep bass.

Crossover Networks

The crossover networks use only the finest components. Air cored 

coils, noninductive resistors, and film capacitors in the signal path 

are all carefully chosen and optimized for the CST driver to provide 

the greatest transparency to the signal. The bass drivers use 

silicon steel plate core inductors that minimize distortion and loss 

during energy transfer. All components are connected directly to 

their respective wiring materials, instead of a printed circuit-

board, allowing for minimal loss and maximum performance.

Collaboration with Air Studios

Since its establishment by George Martin in 1969, London, 

England’s Air Studios has earned unequivocal respect from 

scores of artists who recognize it as the world’s premier recording 

studio. The Air Studios seal that was awarded to the S-8EX 

indicates that these speakers are capable of producing the high-

quality sound demanded by the world’s top-class sound creators.

Installation and Placement

How to install

Select a desired installation setup from the following.

When installing directly on the floor

Use the furnished spikes when installing the speaker directly on a 

floor surface.

Installation

1

Twist the spikes into the threads of the three threaded 

metal inserts (M6) embedded in the bottom of the speaker, 

and screw down securely.

2

Set the cork pads in the positions where the points of the 

three spikes will strike when the speaker is set down.

3

Set the speaker on top of the cork pads.

• As this unit weighs some 28 kg, it is very dangerous to try and 

set the spike nut while tilting the speaker. Be sure to place the 

unit on a soft area (such as a blanket) so that it does not 

damage the floor, and carry out the installation with at least 

two people.

Using the furnished speaker base

When using the furnished speaker base, the use of the furnished 

spikes is not required.

Installation

1

Affix the furnished non-skid pads (small) to the four 

locations on the bottom of the base.

2

Affix the furnished non-skid pads (large) to the two 

places on the top surface of the speaker base.

3

Place the speaker on top of the base.

Use of the furnished speaker base allows fine adjustment of 

the speaker angle.

• When using the furnished speaker base, do not fix the speaker 

in position with screws. The speaker may fall and cause injury.

If you do not use the cork pads when placing the 

speakers, the spikes may cause damage to the floor. If 

you plan on using the spikes we highly recommend to 

use the cork pads.

Using the Pioneer Speaker Stand CP-7EX

To use the CP-7EX stand, the furnished speaker base needs to be 

attached to the stand stems of the CP-7EX. Assemble the stands 

as shown below.

Installation

1

Remove the packing material from the countersunk 

screw holes in the speaker base. 

2

Attach the speaker base to the stand stems of the CP-7EX. 

Use only the furnished screws (M6 x L35).

3

Affix the non-skid pads (large).

4

Using the furnished screws (M5 x L40), spring washer and 

washer, fasten the speaker to the stand.

To help ensure the speaker from falling, use only the provided 

screws to fasten the speaker system to the speaker stand. For 

details, consult the instructions provided with the CP-7EX 

speaker stand.

Choosing Where To Place The Speaker Systems

Placement within the listening room will have a great impact upon 

the total performance of the S-8EX speaker system in terms of 

bass performance, tonal accuracy, and imaging. All rooms are 

different and so this section is intended as a guide only. 

Experimentation in your room will yield optimum results. 

Use the graphic below as a guide to determine optimal speaker 

placement.

 .

• Do not place the speaker where it will be in direct sunlight, and 

avoid positioning it near heaters and air conditioners. Doing 

so may cause warping and discoloration of the speaker 

cabinet and damage to the speaker.

• Pioneer assumes no liability whatsoever for damages 

resulting from assembly, improper mounting, insufficient 

reinforcement, misuse of the product, acts of nature, etc.

Connections

Connecting to an amplifier

This speaker does not include speaker cables used for connecting 

to an amplifier. Take the following factors into consideration when 

choosing speaker cables so that you can get the most from your 

speaker system:

• Use heavy-gauge speaker cable if possible, and keep the 

cables to the minimum necessary length.

• Cables have differing characteristics. Keep this in mind when 

using any cable.

• Select cables with as little resistance as possible, and make 

sure the cables to the speaker terminals and amp are firm and 

secure.

Connecting the cables

1

Switch off the power to your amplifier.

2

Connect the speaker cables to the input terminals (lower) 

on the back of the speaker. For input terminal polarity, red is 

positive (+) and black is negative (–).

3

Connect the other ends of the cables to the amp’s 

speaker output terminals (for more details, refer to your amp 

instruction manual).

• Grasp the cap knobs on the lower input terminals and rotate 

them to the left (counter-clockwise), insert the speaker cable 

wires into the holes in the terminal posts, then tighten the 

knobs to secure the short bar as well as the wires.

• You can also connect the speaker’s terminals with a banana 

plug. When using a banana plug, be sure to remove the cap at 

the tip of the input terminal.

• After connecting the plugs, pull lightly on the cables to make 

sure that the ends of the cables are securely connected to the 

terminals. Poor connections can create noise and 

interruptions in the sound.

• If the cables’ wires happen to be pushed out of the terminals, 

allowing the wires to come into contact with each other, it 

places an excessive additional load on the amp. This may 

cause the amp to stop functioning, and may even damage the 

amp.

CAUTION

These speaker terminals carry 

HAZARDOUS LIVE 

voltage

. To prevent the risk of electric shock when 

connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, 

disconnect the power cord before touching any 

uninsulated parts.

Single-Wire Connections

For single-wire connections, connect the mid-to-high- and low-

frequency sections of the crossover network with the shorting link 

that was included with this unit, then connect the (+) wire from 

your amplifier to either red binding post and the (–) wire from your 

amplifier to either black binding post, as shown in below.

Bi-Wire Connections

In a bi-wiring connection, you independently plug in the speaker 

systems running from the amp to their respective high- and low-

frequency plugs. This results in the CST driver and bass drivers 

being independently connected directly to the amplifier, offering 

you the freedom to optimize the cable type for each of the drivers. 

Connect one set of wires to the bottom set of binding posts (bass 

driver-specific network). Then connect a second set of wires to the 

top binding posts (CST-specific network). Next, connect both sets 

of wires to the appropriate terminals on your amplifier. Take care 

to connect both (+) wires to the (+) amplifier terminals and both 

(–) wires to the (–) amplifier terminals, as shown below.

Bi-Amplification Connections

Bi-Amplification allows the best performance when using dedicated amplifiers for low- and mid-to-high-frequency sections. 

There are two possible configurations, commonly referred to as horizontal and vertical bi-amping.

Remove the shorting links before connecting speaker cables in bi-amplifications connections. 

Failure to do so may result in damage to your amplifiers.

Vertical Bi-Amping

With this configuration, identical stereo amplifiers are used for 

each speaker system. One channel of each amplifier drives the 

low frequency section and the other channel drives the high 

frequency section, as shown below.

Connect one set of wires and amplifier channel to the bottom set 

of binding posts (bass driver-specific network).

Then connect a second set of wires and the other amplifier 

channel to the top binding posts (CST-specific network).

Take care to connect both (+) wires to the (+) amplifier terminals 

and both (–) wires to the (–) amplifier terminals.

Horizontal Bi-Amping

With this configuration, you may use different stereo amplifiers for 

the low- and mid-to-high-frequency sections of the speaker system 

(e.g., tube amplifiers for high frequency and solid state for low 

frequency). Each channel of one amplifier drives the low-

frequency section of each speaker system and each channel of 

the other amplifier drives the mid-to-high-frequency section, as 

shown below.

This method requires that both amplifiers have the same gain; 

otherwise an imbalance will be heard between the low- and mid-

to-high-frequency reproduction from the speaker system. If in 

doubt, please consult your local dealer.

Attaching/Removing the Grille Cover

This speaker system comes with grille covers which may be 

attached and removed by:

1

To attach the grille cover, line up the holes on the speaker 

with the inserts on the grill, and press firmly.

2

To remove the grille cover, grasp the upper and lower 

edges of the grille cover at the left side by your hands and 

gently pull toward you to separate the left part of the grille 

cover from the speaker.

3

Then move your hands to the middle of the grille cover 

and again gently pull the upper and lower edges toward you 

to separate the middle section.

4

Magnetic shielding

This speaker system is magnetically shielded. However, 

depending on the installation location, color distortion may occur 

if the speaker system is installed extremely close to the screen of 

a television set.

If this happens, turn off the television, then turn it on again after 

15 min to 30 min. If the problem persists, place the speaker system 

away from the television set.

is a trademark placed on a product with Pioneer’s Phase 

Control technology. This technology enables high-grade sound 

reproduction through each component by improving overall 

phase matching.
