PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
E-2
To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
This unit is equipped with the newly developed Active Servo Processing Speaker System. It is not designed for use with conventional speakers. Therefore, do not attempt to connect other speakers than the provided speaker system.
Choose the installation location of this unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as transformers and electric motors.
Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage.
Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact your dealer
Do not place CD or other objects on top of this unit.
Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When
moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wire itself.
Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section regarding common operating errors before concluding that the unit is faulty.
To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and disconnect the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm.
Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you finish all connections.
Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come near the cassette deck’s record/playback head assembly in this unit. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror­smooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance quality.
Although the cassette deck’s record/playback heads used in this unit are high quality heads with outstanding reproduction characteristics, they can become dirty through the use of old tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with cleaning solutions.
The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage than that which is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than that which is specified.
Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet. Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction. Follow the procedure below to eliminate condensation.
CD pickup
Leave the power on with no disc in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour).
Tape head
Leave the power on with no cassette in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour).
Note
If condensation forms on the tape head, foreign matter may accumulate during use.
Remote control
Wipe off condensation on the transmitter window with a soft cloth before operating the unit.
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on a combination of speaker efficiency, location and may other factors.

ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY

E-3
The theory of the Active Servo Technology is based upon two major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and negative­impedance drive. Active Servo Processing speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air woofer”, which is a small port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet. This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system. Thus, signals of low amplitude within the cabinet can, according to the Helmholtz resonance theory, be output from this opening as waves of great amplitude if the design is such that the size of the opening and the volume of the cabinet are in the correct proportion to satisfy a certain ratio. In order to accomplish this, moreover, the amplitudes within the cabinet must be both precise and of sufficient power because these amplitudes must overcome the “load” presented by the air that exists within the cabinet.
Thus it is this problem that is resolved through the employment of a design in which the amplifier functions to supply the signals. If the electrical resistance of the voice coil is reduced to zero, the movement of the speaker unit would become linear with respect to signal voltage, and, to accomplish this, a special negative-impedance output-drive amplifier for subtracting output impedance of the amplifier is used. By employing negative-impedance drive circuits, the amplifier is able to generate precise, low-amplitude low-frequency waves with superior damping characteristics, and these waves are then radiated from the cabinet opening as high­amplitude signals. The system can, therefore, by employing the negative-impedance output drive amplifier and a speaker cabinet with the Helmholtz resonator, reproduce an extremely wide range of frequencies (28 Hz – 20 kHz) with amazing sound quality and less distortion. The features described above, then, are combined to be the fundamental structure of the Active Servo Technology.
