Frequently Asked Questions - NS-P9900 YAMAHA

How do I connect the Yamaha NS-P9900 speakers to my receiver?

Use the included speaker cables to connect each speaker to the corresponding terminals on your AV receiver. Ensure correct polarity (+/-) and match the front, center, and surround channels.

What is the recommended placement for the NS-P9900 speakers?

Place the front speakers at ear level, slightly angled towards the listening position. The center speaker should be directly above or below the TV. Surround speakers should be mounted on side walls, slightly behind the listening area. The subwoofer can be placed near the front wall.

Can I wall mount the satellite speakers?

Yes, the surround speakers are designed for wall mounting. Use the included brackets and follow the manual for proper installation. Ensure the wall can support the weight.

How do I clean the speaker grilles and cabinets?

Use a soft, dry cloth to dust the cabinets. For the grille, gently vacuum with a brush attachment or remove and hand wash with mild soapy water. Let dry completely before reattaching.

What type of amplifier is recommended for the NS-P9900?

An AV receiver with 100-150W per channel (6 Ohms) is recommended. Ensure the receiver supports the speaker impedance and has enough channels for a 5.1 setup.

Why is there no sound from one speaker?

Check the speaker wire connections at both the speaker and receiver. Ensure the receiver is set to output to that channel and the speaker is not muted in the setup menu.

Can I use the NS-P9900 with a stereo amplifier?

Yes, but you will only get front left and right channels. The center and surround channels require a multi-channel receiver to function properly.

What is the subwoofer crossover frequency?

Set the crossover on your receiver to 80-100 Hz for best integration. The subwoofer's built-in crossover should be set to maximum (LFE) if using the receiver's crossover.

How do I reset the speakers?

Speakers do not have a reset function. If experiencing issues, check all connections and receiver settings. For physical damage, contact Yamaha support.

Are the speakers magnetically shielded?

Yes, the front and center speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent interference with CRT TVs. For modern flat-screen TVs, shielding is less critical.

PRECAUTIONS

Read this before using the speakers.

• To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
• Install the speaker in a cool, dry, clean place – away from windows, heat sources, sources of excessive vibration, dust, moisture and cold.
• Avoid sources of humming (transformers, motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not expose the speaker to rain or water.
• To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do not place the speaker where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or excessive humidity.

- Do not place the following objects on the speakers: Glass, china, etc. If glass etc. falls by vibrations and breaks, it may cause personal injury.

A burning candle etc. If the candle falls by vibrations, it may cause fire and personal injury.

A vessel with water in it If the vessel falls by vibrations and water spills, it may cause damage to the speaker, and/or you may get an electric shock.

- Do not place the speaker where foreign objects such as water drips might fall. It might cause a fire, damage to the speaker, and/or personal injury.

• Do not place the speaker where it is liable to be knocked over or struck by falling objects. Stable placement will also ensure better sound performance.
• Placing the speaker on the same shelf or rack as the turntable can result in feedback.
• When moving the speaker, do not hold the port as it might cause personal injury and/or damage to the speaker.
• Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your amplifier to a lower setting. Never allow your amplifier to be driven into “clipping”. Otherwise the speaker may be damaged.
• When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher than the nominal input power of the speaker, care should be taken never to exceed the speaker's maximum input.
• Do not attempt to clean the speaker with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
• Do not attempt to modify or fix the speaker. Contact qualified Yamaha service personnel when any service is needed. The cabinet should never be opened for any reasons.
• Secure placement or installation is the owner's responsibility. Yamaha shall not be liable for any accident caused by improper placement or installation of the speaker.

NS-C9900 (Center speaker)

Place this unit precisely between the front speakers.

NS-E9900 (Surround speaker)

Place these units behind your listening position.

■ Setting up the speaker (NS-C9900)

Place the speaker above a TV or inside of the TV rack so that the speaker and the TV are aligned vertically.

Notes

• Do not place the speaker on top of the TV whose area is smaller than the bottom area of the speaker. If placed, the speaker may fall and cause injury.
• Do not place the speaker on top of the TV with an inclination.
• This speaker features a magnetically shielded design, but there is still a chance that placing it too close to a TV set might impair picture color or create a buzzing noise. Should this happen, move the speaker away from the TV set.

Securing this unit

Peel off the film from each of the four supplied fasteners and then secure them to the bottom four corners of this unit or the top of the rack, etc.

• Thoroughly wipe clean the surface where the fastener is to be applied. Note that adhesive strength is weakened if the surface is dirty, oily or wet and that this may cause the center speaker to drop.
• Do not touch the adhesive surface after peeling off the film as this will weaken its adhesive strength.

■ Setting up the speakers (NS-E9900)

Mount the speakers on a wall or place the speakers on a shelf. Determine the best position by following the owner's manual supplied with your amplifier.

Mounting the speakers on the wall

① Fasten the supplied bracket on the rear panel with screws.

② Attach the supplied pads in the following indicated positions.

③ Fasten two screws into a firm wall or wall support at the interval shown below.

4 Hang the speaker by mounting the holes on the protruding screws.

Make that the screws are securely affixed by the narrow parts of the holes.

Caution

• Each speaker weighs 4.9 kg.
- Do not mount the speakers on thin plywood or a wall composed of a soft surface material. If mounted, the screws may pull out of the flimsy surface and the speakers may fall. This may damage the speakers or cause personal injury.
- Do not affix the speakers to a wall using nails, adhesives, or any other unstable hardware. Long-term use and vibrations may cause the speakers to fall.
• To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose speaker cables, fix the cables to the wall.
- Select an appropriate position on the wall to mount the speaker so that no one will injure his/her head or face.

You can also use the screw holes on the bottom of the NS-E9900 for installing the speakers on commercially available speaker stands (if you do not use the provided brackets).

* Before installing, please refer to the instruction manual of the speaker stand.

CONNECTIONS TO YOUR AMPLIFIER

■ Connections

Before making connection, make sure that the amplifier is switched off.

• Connect the screw-type terminals at the rear of the speakers to the speaker terminals on the amplifier with a supplied speaker cable.
• Connect the + terminals on the amplifier and on the speakers using one side of the cable. Connect the - terminals on both components using the other side of the cable.
• Connect one speaker to the left (L) terminals of your amplifier, and another speaker to the right (R) terminals, making sure not to reverse the polarity (+, -). If one speaker is connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

How to connect

① Loosen the knob.
② Twist the exposed wires of the cable together.

③ Insert the bare wire into the hole.
4 Tighten the knob and secure the cable. Test the firmness of the connection by pulling the cable lightly at the terminal.

Notes

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could damage the speaker and/or the amplifier.
• Do not insert the insulation coating into the hole. The sound may not be produced.

When using a banana plug (China model only)

①Unscrew the terminal knob. Note that the cap inside also comes off.

③ Tighten the terminal knob.

④ Simply insert the banana plug into the terminal.

② Remove the cap from the terminal knob.

Terminal

Tip
To put the cap back in place, tighten the terminal knob first, and then fit the cap into the hole.

REMOVING THE FRONT COVER

The front cover is fastened to the enclosure at 4 points and can be removed if desired. To remove the cover, hold on to both sides and slowly pull straight away from the speaker. To reattach, line up the 4 holes on the inner surface of the cover with the 4 corresponding pegs on the speaker and push gently.

NS-E9900

NS-C9900

When the cover is removed, take care not to touch the speaker units with your hands or to exert excessive force with tools.

■ Attaching fasteners to secure the front cover (NS-E9900)

Vibrations etc. incurred during use may loosen the front cover. If the front cover falls off, it may cause personal injury and/or damage the front cover and surrounding items.

To prevent the front cover falling off, attach the small fasteners supplied to the front cover and to the speaker, as illustrated right.

• Wipe the surface of the speaker clean before attaching the fasteners. If the surface is dirty or wet, the adhesive strength of the tape may weaken, and cause the front cover to fall off.
• Do not touch the glued surface after peeling off the seal from the fasteners. The adhesive strength of the tape may weaken and cause the front cover to fall off.
• Make sure that the positions of the fasteners on the front cover match up exactly with those on the speaker.
