USER MANUAL NSPB120 YAMAHA

(NS-PB120: NS-B120 + NS-C120)

ИНСТРУКЦИЯ ПО ЭКСПЛУАТАЦИИ1 En Please read the following operating precautions before use. Yamaha will not be held responsible for any damage and/or injury caused by not following the cautions below.

1. To assure the finest performance, please read this manual

carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.

2. Install the speakers in a cool, dry, clean place – away

from windows, sources of heat, sources of excessive vibration, dust, moisture or cold. Avoid sources of electrical humming (e.g., transformers and motors). To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose the speakers to rain or water.

3. To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do

not expose the speakers to direct sunlight or excessive humidity.

4. Avoid installing the speakers where foreign objects may

fall onto them and/or where they may be exposed to liquid dripping or splashing.

5. Do not place the following objects on top of the

speakers: – Other components, as they might damage or discolor the surface of the speakers. – Burning objects (e.g., candles), as they might cause fire, damage to the speakers or personal injury. – Containers of liquid, as they might spill and cause electric shock to the user or damage to the speakers.

6. 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.

7. Placing the speakers on the same shelf or rack as the

turntable can result in feedback.

8. Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume control

on your amplifier to lower setting. Never allow your amplifier to be driven into “clipping”. Otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.

9. When using an amplifier with a rated output power

higher than the nominal input power of the speakers, care should be taken not to exceed the maximum input of the speakers.

10. Do not attempt to clean the speakers with chemical

solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

11. Do not attempt to modify or fix the speakers. Contact

qualified Yamaha service personnel when service is needed. The cabinet should never be opened for any reason.

12. Secure placement or installation is the owner’s

• responsibility. Yamaha is not liable for accidents caused by improper placement or installation of speakers. Precautions Contents Package contents p. 2

Make sure the package contains the following items. Before you connect the speakers, place each speaker in its respective location. Speaker positioning is very important as it affects the overall sound quality of the system. Place the speakers in locations that will optimize the sound quality at your listening position. Refer to the illustration. Note p. 6

• The speakers feature a magnetically shielded design. However, there is still a chance that placing them too close to a CRT-type TV set might impair picture color. Should this happen, move the speakers away from the TV set. Package contents Installing the speakers Front and surround speakers (NS-B120) x 4 Center speaker (NS-C120) x 1 Non-skid pads (4 pcs) x 4 (for front and surround speakers) Fastener x 2 (for center speaker) Speaker cable 24.5 m (80 ft.) x1 Center Front right Surround left Front left Surround rightInstalling the speakers 3 En Installing the center speaker Place the center speaker centrally between the front speakers, facing directly forward. When placing it on a flat surface (TV rack, etc), affix the supplied fasteners to bottom of the speaker as shown left. When wall-mounting it, see “Wall-mounting the speakers” (page 4). Note

• Wipe the surface clean before affixing the fasteners. If the surface is dirty, oily or wet, adhesive strength is weakened and the speaker may fall. Installing the front/surround speakers Front speakers: Place the two front speakers on the left and right sides of the TV, at approximately the same height as the TV, facing directly forward. Surround speakers: Place the left and right surround speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inward. When placing them on a flat surface (hard floor, etc), affix the supplied non-skid pads to the corners of the bottom of the speaker as shown left (Fig. A). The pads will prevent the speaker from moving around. When wall-mounting them, affix the supplied non-skid pads to the lower corners of the back of the speaker as shown left (Fig. B). For details, see “Wall-mounting the speakers” (page 4). Fastener Peel of the seal. TV rack, etc Non-skid pad Non-skid pad (A) Bottom (B) BackInstalling the speakers 4 En English Wall-mounting the speakers You can mount the speakers on the wall as follows. 1 Install screws into a solid wall or wall support as shown left. Use 3.5 to 4 mm (1/8") diameter self-tapping screws. 2 Hang each speaker by its keyhole slots onto the protruding screws. Note

• Make sure the shaft of the screw is seated in the narrow part of the keyhole slot. Otherwise, the speaker may fall. Warnings
• Each speaker weighs 1.8 kg (4.0 lbs.). Do not mount the speakers on thin plywood or on a wall with a soft surface material. Otherwise, the screws may pull out of the surface and the speakers may fall, possibly damaging the speakers or causing personal injury.• Do not affix the speakers to a wall using nails, adhesives, or unstable hardware. Long-term use and vibration may cause the speakers to fall.• To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose speaker cables, affix the cables to the wall.• Mount the speakers in a wall location that will be unlikely to result in injury to an individual’s head.• When using speaker brackets (commercially available) to mount the speakers on the wall or ceiling, we strongly recommend using safety wire (may be supplied with the bracket) between the speaker and bracket to prevent the speaker from falling.
• If you are not sure of a safe way to install these speakers, consult a professional installer or a building contractor. 26 mm (1") Wall/wall support 3 mm (1/8") Minimum 20 mm (3/4") Surround speaker Center speaker 245 mm (9-5/8")5 En Caution: Make sure the power cables for your AV components are disconnected from the AC wall outlets before making any connections. Connection diagram ■ Preparing the speaker cables Once you have positioned the speakers, cut the 24.5-meter (80 ft.) speaker cable into five cables for connecting the front right/left speakers, center speaker and surround right/left speakers. 1 Cut the supplied speaker cable to suitable length for each speaker. 2 Remove about 15 mm (5/8") of insulation from the end of each speaker cable. 3 Twist the bare wires tightly so the individual strands are not splayed.Notes• Make the speaker cables as short as possible. Do not bundle or roll up excess cable.• Be careful not to injure yourself while preparing the speaker cables. Connecting the speakers ANTENNA

Notes

• Make sure the terminal is gripping the bare wire, not the insulation.• Make sure the bare wires do not touch each other, as this could damage the speaker or amplifier.• If the connections are faulty, you will hear no sound from the speakers. ■ Connecting to an amplifier Connect each speaker to the appropriate speaker terminals on your amplifier by using the cables you prepared earlier. For details, see “Connection diagram” (page 5).Make sure you connect the speakers with the correct polarity—positive (+) terminals to positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to negative (–) terminals. If you get them crossed over, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. In your AV receiver’s speaker size settings, specify small (or “S”) for all of the NS-PB120 speakers. Once you have connected all of the speakers, plug the amplifier and other AV components into suitable AC wall outlets.
