Frequently Asked Questions - NSPLC3 YAMAHA

How to connect the speakers to my amplifier?

Make sure the amplifier is turned off. Strip 10-15 mm of the ends of the speaker wires and twist the strands. Connect each speaker to the corresponding terminals of the amplifier, respecting polarity (+ and -). Make sure the stripped wires do not touch each other to avoid damaging the amplifier.

What is the impedance of the YAMAHA NSPLC3 speakers?

All speakers in the NSPLC3 system have an impedance of 6 ohms. Make sure your amplifier is compatible with this impedance.

Can I use this system with a TV?

Yes, the speakers are magnetically shielded, allowing them to be placed near a TV without causing image distortion. However, if you notice deformation, move the speakers slightly away.

How to clean the speakers?

Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe dust. Never use chemical solvents or abrasive products as they would damage the finish.

What to do if the sound saturates?

Immediately reduce the amplifier volume. Check that the input power does not exceed the indicated maximum power (100 W for fronts, 50 W for center and surround). Prolonged saturation can damage the speakers.

Are the speakers magnetically shielded?

Yes, each speaker is equipped with magnetic shielding to avoid interference with TVs and other screens. Be careful when placing them very close to the screen.

How to install the surround speakers (NS-ELC3)?

Stick the provided anti-slip pads under each speaker, then place them on a solid, horizontal surface. You can also use the screw holes to attach them to commercially available speaker stands.

Can I mount the speakers on a wall?

The front and center speakers are not designed for wall mounting. The surround speakers can be installed on optional stands via the fixing screws. For any other mounting, consult a professional.

What cables to use for connection?

Use standard speaker cables (section 1.5 to 2.5 mm² recommended). Strip 10-15 mm from each end and twist the strands. Make sure polarity is respected.

How to prevent the center speaker from falling?

Place the speaker on a flat, stable surface, such as a TV stand. Use the provided fasteners to secure it: stick the double-sided adhesive tape under the speaker, then attach the provided bracket. For a TV, install the fasteners under the speaker and on top of the TV.

Caution

■Read the following before using these speakers:

To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
- Install the speakers 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 electric shock, do not expose the speakers to dripping or splashing.
- To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do not place the speakers where they will be exposed to direct sunlight or excessive humidity.
- Do not place the following objects on top of the speakers:

1.Glass,china,etc.

If glass etc. falls by vibrations and breaks, it may cause personal injury.

2.A burning candle etc.

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

3.A vessel with water in it

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

• Do not place the speakers where foreign objects such as water drips might fall. It might cause a fire, damage to this unit, and/or personal injury.
• Do not place the speakers where they are liable to be knocked over or struck by falling objects. Stable placement will also ensure better sound performance.
• Secure placement or installation is the owner's responsibility. Yamaha shall not be liable for any accident caused by improper placement or installation of speakers.
• Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume of your amplifier immediately. Make sure the input power does not exceed the specified maximum input power, otherwise the speakers will be damaged.
• Do not attempt to clean the speakers with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
• Do not attempt to modify or fix the speakers. Contact qualified Yamaha service personnel when any service is needed. The cabinet should never be opened for any reasons.

Note:

This speaker is magnetically shielded, but placing them too close to a TV may impair the TV picture. If this happens, move the speaker away from the TV.

Supplied Accessories Precautions When

Positioning the Speakers

• Speaker cable

• S t a n d x 2

• Double-sided adhesive tape x 2

Fastener x 2

• Non-skid pad (For surround speakers)

(1 set : 6 units)

The speaker is constructed with the majority of the weight located in its upper portion, and is thus susceptible to falling over if proper care is not taken to insure its stability. If the speaker falls over, it may damage the speaker or be the cause of injury (or even death) to persons and/or damage to personal property.

■For safe and proper use of the speaker:

• Position the speaker in a location that is solid, level, smooth, and low (with respect to the floor).
• Do not push or apply pressure to the side of the speaker when moving, or lean objects against the side of the speaker.
• Do not sit on or set objects on top of the speaker.

Vibrations or jolts associated with earthquakes and other phenomena or activities may cause the speaker to fall over. For safety reasons, using commercially available products that increase stability in the speaker is recommended (metal fittings or chains, etc.).

Setting up the Speakers

Place the speakers on a sturdy, vibration-free surface.

Placing the speakers in a Surround Sound System

Position the front speakers both side of your TV. The positioning of these speakers is important because they provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener, and equidistant from the TV.

The following diagram shows the recommended speaker layout.

Placing the center speaker NS-CLC3

Place the speaker on the TV or inside the TV rack so that it is stabilized.

Attaching the stand

1. Decide the location where you want to place the speaker.
   2.Affix the double-sided adhesive tape on the bottom of the speaker.
2. Attach the supplied stands 10mm from the corner of the speaker bottom.

Placing the center speaker on top of the TV

Affix the supplied fasteners to the bottom of the stands. Peel off the seal and attach the center speaker to the top of the TV.

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 drop out causing an injury to you.
• Do not place the speaker on top of the TV with an inclination.
• Do not touch the adhesive surface after peeling off the seal as this will weaken its adhesive strength.
• 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.

Placing the surround speakers NS-ELC3

• Attach the non-skid pads to the bottom of the each speakers, and then place the speakers on a level hard surface.
• Using non-skid pads prevents the surround speakers from sliding when they vibrate, and ensures quality sound production.

Note:

You can also use the screw holes on the bottom of the surround speakers NS-ELC3 for installing the speakers on commercially available speaker stands.

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

Connecting Your Speakers

Always turn off your amplifier or receiver before making any connections.

Preparing Your Speaker Cables

Carefully remove 10 - 15mm of insulation from both ends of your speaker cables and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.

10-15 mn
Good No Good

Notes:

• Make sure that the bare wires are not touching each other as this could damage the speaker and amplifier.
• Connect one speaker to the left terminals of your amplifier, and another speaker to the right terminals, making sure not to reverse the polarity (+, -) . If one speaker is connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
