Yamaha NS-10M STUDIO - Manual (Page 3)

CONNECTION
BEFORE MAKING SPEAKER CONNECTIONS, MAKE SURE YOUR POWER AMPLIFIER IS TURNED OFF!
• Connecting the Speakers
The terminals on the rear of the left and right speakers must be connected to the corresponding speaker
output terminals on the rear of your power amplifier with appropriate speaker cables. Make sure that the
right speaker is connected to the speaker output terminals on the amplifier marked "R" or "RIGHT", and
the left speaker is connected to the amplifier output terminals marked "L" or "LEFT." Also make sure that
the red ( + ) terminal on each speaker is connected to the ( + ) output terminal of corresponding pair on
the amplifier, and the black (-) terminal on *he speaker is connected to the (-) terminal on the amplifier.
If the speaker polarities are not properly matched, unstable stereo imaging and distortion will result.

First loosen the terminals by screwing
counter-clockwise, insert a bared portion of
the speaker cable, then tighten the terminal
on the cable by screwing clockwise.
• Placement
The NS-10M STUDIO speakers are basically designed for horizontal placement, the speaker marked (A)
in the above illustration corresponding to the right speaker and the (B) to the left. According to your
requirements, however, the positions of the speakers may be reversed or they may be placed vertically
with no effect on reproduction quality. The speakers are marked (A) or (B) to the right of the serial number
on the rear panel label. •
• Slippage at High Power Levels
Vibration occuring when the speakers are driven at high power levels may cause them to move out of
position. This can be prevented by applying the supplied non-slip sheet to the bottom surface of the speaker
enclosures.
