We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

YAMAHA and the Electronic Industries Associa­tion’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to
get the most out of your equipment by playing it at
a safe level. One that lets the sound come
through loud and clear without annoying blaring
or distortion – and, most importantly, without
affecting your sensitive hearing.

Since hearing damage from loud
sounds is often undetectable until it
is too late, YAMAHA and the Elec­tronic Industries Association’s Con­sumer Electronics Group
recommend you to avoid prolonged
exposure from excessive volume levels.
