Yamaha Audio NS-C200 User Manual

Read these precautions carefully before using your speaker.

●

Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your
amplifier to a lower setting. Never allow your amplifier to be
driven into “clipping”. Otherwise the speaker may be damaged.

●

When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher than
the nominal input power of the speaker, care should be taken
never to exceed the speaker’s maximum input.

●

Do not attempt to clean the speaker with chemical solvents as
this might damage the finish. To clean, wipe with a dry, soft cloth.

●

To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do not
place the speaker where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or
excessive humidity.

●

Do not place the speaker where it is liable to be knocked over or
struck by falling objects. Stable placement will also ensure better
sound performance.

●

Placing the speaker on the same shelf or rack as the turntable
can result in feedback.

●

When positioning the speaker, be sure to leave some space
between the speaker and the wall or other hard surface.

●

Secure placement or installation is the owner’s responsibility.
YAMAHA shall not be liable for any accident caused by improper
placement or installation of the speaker.

PRECAUTIONS

OWNER’S MANUAL

English

PLACING THE SPEAKER

Place the center speaker on top of the TV, on the floor under the
TV or inside the TV rack so that it is stabilized.
When placing the center speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the
speaker from falling down, put the supplied velcro strips at four
points on both bottom of the speaker and top of the TV.
The center speaker should be set in alignment with the center of
the TV screen.
The positioning of the center speaker is important, because it
controls the whole sound quality of a multi channel system. Set up
the center speaker on the basis of your listening position by
following the owner’s manual supplied with your amplifier.

Notes

●

Do not place the center speaker on top of the TV whose area
is smaller than the bottom area of the speaker. If placed, the
speaker may fall and possibly cause damage or personal
injury.

●

Though this speaker is magnetically shielded, there may be
some influence on the TV picture depending on the type of
TV or the placement of the speaker. In such a case, place
the speaker away from the TV so that there is no influence
on the TV picture.
