PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, shortcircuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/Power cord
•Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the device.
•Use only the included power cord.
•Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.
•Be sure to connect to an appropriate outlet with a protective grounding connection. Improper grounding can result in electrical shock.
Do not open
•Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. The device contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Water warning
•Do not expose the device to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings.
•Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
If you notice any abnormality
•If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the device, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the device inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
•If this device should be dropped or damaged, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the device inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the device or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/Power cord |
|
Connections |
•Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
•When removing the electric plug from the device or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
Location
•Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
•When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet.
•Do not use the device in a confined, poorly-ventilated location. Make sure that there is adequate space between the device and surrounding walls or other devices: at least 20cm at the sides, 20cm behind and 20cm above. Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the device(s), or even fire.
•Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
•Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
•Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all devices. Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume levels to minimum.
Handling caution
•When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on the device LAST, to avoid speaker damage. When turning the power off, the device should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.
•Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or openings on the device (ports, etc.).
•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any gaps or openings on the device (ports, etc.) If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
•Do not use the device for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
•Do not operate the device if the sound is distorting. Prolonged use in this condition could cause overheating and result in fire.
•Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
XLR-type connectors are wired as follows (IEC60268 standard): pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (-).
Even though this speaker system (HS50M, HS80M only) is magnetically shielded, you may need to move the speaker further away from the video monitor, if a nearby video monitor exhibits any distortion or unnatural color shift.
Interference From Cell Phones
Using a cell phone near the speaker system can induce noise. If this occurs, move the cell phone further away from the speaker system.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the device.
Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.
The performance of components with moving contacts, such as switches, volume controls, and connectors, deteriorates over time. Consult qualified Yamaha service personnel about replacing defective components.

You’d think that the requirements for “listening” and “monitoring” would be the same, but that is not always the case. A great listening system can be a great monitoring system, and vice-versa, but in most cases you’ll miss details that are essential to producing the best possible mix on a system that’s set up purely for musical enjoyment. The difference is somewhat similar to the difference between a retouched glamour portrait and the original in which every blemish is clearly visible. The model looks a lot better in the retouched photo, but the reality is in the original un-enhanced version. As mixing engineer, or producer, or sonic artist, you’ll want to hear the details so that you can create a perfectly balanced mix that will sound good on the widest possible range of audio systems
— and that can mean anything from high-ticket boutique audio components in a properly-designed listening room right down to the boom box on top of the fridge in the kitchen. You don’t want problems hidden by poor monitor performance to sabotage your sound on other systems.
The legendary Yamaha NS10M became a standard monitor in the music and sound industry (and is still in use in many studios throughout the world) for precisely that reason: it offered flat response and excellent resolution that allowed engineers and producers to hear subtle details that make the difference between good and great sound. The HS-series monitors carry on the tradition with accuracy and detail that can help you make great mixes, while letting you monitor for long stretches with minimum fatigue.
Powered monitors offer many sonic and practical advantages over passive types, but since they’re driven by line-level signals you need to exercise the same care in choosing cables and connectors as for the other line-level connections in your studio. Always use high quality cables and connectors, and keep cable runs as short as possible.
Unbalanced lines are fine for relatively short cables runs unless you happen to be in a location that is plagued by high levels of electrical and radio-frequency noise. Of course if you’re using equipment that only has unbalanced outputs you have no choice, and will need to set up your system so that everything can be connected with the shortest possible unbalanced cables. If your mixer and monitors are located on the same desktop or tabletop, for example, there should be no problem. But if you need to run line-level cables longer than about three meters (longer than about 10 feet), you might be better off using balanced connections for maximum noise resistance.
The HS-series studio monitors provide two types of connectors for input, so you can choose the type that best matches your system requirements.
