Yamaha NS-SW700: CONNECTIONS

CONNECTIONS: Yamaha NS-SW700

CONNECTIONS

Choose one of the following two connecting methods most suitable for your audio system.

Choose (pages 6-7) if your amplifier has line output (pin jack) terminal(s)

1

Choose (pages 8-9) if your amplifier has no line output (pin jack) terminal

2

(s)

Caution: Unplug the subwoofer and other audio/video components before making

connections.

Notes

All connections must be correct, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Also, refer

to the owner’s manual of your component to be connected to the subwoofer.

After all connections are completed, plug in the subwoofer and other audio/video components.

Connecting to line output (pin jack) terminals of the amplifier

To connect to an amplifier (or AV receiver), connect the SUBWOOFER (or LOW PASS, etc.) terminal on the rear of

the amplifier (or AV receiver) to the /MONO INPUT2 terminal of the subwoofer.

L

When connecting the subwoofer to the SPLIT SUBWOOFER terminals on the rear of the amplifier, be sure to connect

the /MONO INPUT2 terminal to the “L” side and the INPUT2 terminal to the “R” side of the SPLIT

L

R

SUBWOOFER terminals.

Notes

Some amplifiers have line output terminals labeled PRE OUT. When you connect the subwoofer to the PRE OUT

terminals of the amplifier, make sure that the amplifier has at least two sets of PRE OUT terminals. If the

amplifier has only one set of PRE OUT terminals, do not connect the subwoofer to the PRE OUT terminals.

Instead, connect the subwoofer to the speaker output terminals of the amplifier. (Refer to pages 8-9.)

When connecting to a monaural line output terminal of the amplifier, connect the /MONO INPUT2 terminal.

L

When connecting to line output terminals of the amplifier, other speakers should not be connected to the

OUTPUT terminals on the rear panel of the subwoofer. If connected, they will not produce sound.

Connecting to the LFE (INPUT3) terminal(s)

If your amplifier can cut off high frequencies from the

signals for sending to the subwoofer, connect the amplifier

to the subwoofer's LFE (INPUT3) terminal(s).This will

bring you higher sound quality because the signal routing

in the subwoofer is shortened by passing the built-in HIGH

CUT circuit.

Connecting to speaker output terminals of the amplifier

Select this method if your amplifier has no line output (pin jack) terminal (s).

If your amplifier has two sets of front speaker output terminals and both terminals can

output sound signals simultaneously.

Connect one set of front speaker output terminals of the amplifier to the INPUT1 terminals of the subwoofer, and

connect the other set of front speaker output terminals of the amplifier to the front speakers.

Set the amplifier so that both sets of front speaker output terminals output sound signals simultaneously.

Note

If your amplifier has only one set of front speaker output terminals, see page 9.
