In 1988, Yamaha brought to the marketplace speaker systems utilizing YST (Yamaha

Active Servo Technology) to give powerful, high quality bass reproduction. This technique

uses a direct connection between the amplifier and speaker, allowing accurate signal

transmission and precise speaker control.

As this technology uses speaker units controlled by the negative impedance drive of the

amplifier and resonance generated between the speaker cabinet volume and port, it creates

more resonant energy (the “air woofer” concept) than the standard bass reflex method. This

allows for bass reproduction from much smaller cabinets than was previously possible.

Yamaha’s newly developed Advanced YST II adds many refinements to Yamaha Active

Servo Technology, allowing better control of the forces driving the amplifier and speaker.

From the amplifier’s point of view, the speaker impedance changes depending on the sound

frequency. Yamaha developed a new circuit design combining negative-impedance and

constant-current drives, which provides a more stable performance and clear bass

reproduction, without any murkiness.

Today’s bass reflex speakers use a Helmholtz

resonator to improve their bass reproduction.

However when reproducing bass that is in the

frequency region of this Helmholtz

resonator, air moves violently in and out

through the port between the interior and

exterior of the speaker, sometimes producing

noise due to the turbulent air flow at the end

of the port.

The port and the cabinet resonate at a

frequency that is determined by their

dimensions and shape. On the other hand,

turbulence in the air flow at the end of the port contains a broad range of frequency

components that are not present in the input signal. This noise occurs because the broad

range of frequency components includes components that match the resonant frequencies

of the port and cabinet, causing strong resonance.

The Twisted Flare Port developed by Yamaha changes the way in which the port widens

toward its end, and also adds a “twist” to suppress airflow turbulence at each end of the port

and thus prevent noise from occurring.

This substantially reduces the “muddy sound” and “wind noise” that until now have been

characteristic of bass reflex speakers, allowing bass to be reproduced clearly.

• This subwoofer system employs Advanced Yamaha

Active Servo Technology II, which Yamaha has

developed for the production of higher quality, super-

bass sound. This super-bass sound adds a more realistic,

theater-in-the-home effect to your stereo system.

• This subwoofer can easily be added to your existing audio

system by connecting to either the speaker terminals or the

line output (pin jack) terminals of the amplifier.

• For effective use of the subwoofer, the subwoofer’s

super-bass sound should be matched to the sounds of

your front speakers. You can create the best sound

quality for various listening conditions by using the

HIGH CUT control and the PHASE switch.

• The Automatic power-switching function saves you the

trouble of pressing the STANDBY/ON button to turn the

power on and off.

• The subwoofer can be linked to a Yamaha component for

simultaneous power on/off operation.

Use the supplied system control cable to connect the

subwoofer to a Yamaha component that features a

system connector jack. When you turn on or off the

power to the connected component, the subwoofer will

also be turned on or off.

• The flared, gently twisting shape diffuses the vortex of

air generated around the edge of the port, creating a

smooth flow of air. This reduces extraneous noise not

present in the original input signal, and provides clear,

accurate low frequency reproduction.

• The subwoofer can also reproduce a bass sound that is

appropriate for the source. (NS-SW300 only)

It features a B.A.S.S. switch that enables you to select a

bass effect that is suitable for the source.

After unpacking, check

that the following

accessory is contained.

FEATURES

SUPPLIED ACCESSORY

System control cable (5 m x 1)

Since the low-end frequencies of audio signals feature long wavelengths, they are almost non-directional to human ears.

The super-bass range does not create a stereo image. Therefore, a single subwoofer may be enough to produce a high-

quality super-bass sound. However, using two subwoofers (similarly to L and R front speakers) can enhance your acoustic

experience.

Place the subwoofer as shown in fig. , or for the optimum effect. : subwoofer : front speaker

Using one subwoofer

Place the subwoofer on the outside of either the left or right

front speaker.

Placing the subwoofer in between the left and

right front speakers

If you are placing the subwoofer in between the left and

right front speakers, position it slightly at an angle toward

the wall for better effect.

Using two subwoofers

Place them on the outside of

each front speaker.

NOTE

• This unit features a magnetically shielded design. However, there is still a chance that placing it too close to a CRT-type TV set

might impair picture color. Should this happen, move this unit away from the TV set.

• If the speaker volume is very loud, furniture or window glass may resonate and the subwoofer itself may vibrate. In this case,

lower the volume level. To limit resonance, use a thick curtain or similar cloth that tends to absorb sound vibrations effectively.

Also, changing the subwoofer position may be helpful.

PLACEMENT

Subwoofer orientation

NOTE

The placement shown in the figure below is also possible.

However, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing a wall,

the bass effect may suffer due to phase cancellation caused by

the interference between the direct and reflected sounds.

To prevent this from happening, place the

subwoofer system at an angle.

(Figures , , and )

There may be a case that you

cannot obtain enough super-bass

sound from the subwoofer due to

standing waves.

Connection example

How the System Connection works

NOTE

• For this feature to be available, the POWER switch on the rear panel and the STANDBY/ON

switch on the top panel ( page 3) must be set to ON.

• Powering on/off via the system connection takes priority over the Automatic power-switching

function. (While the unit is turned on, the Automatic power-switching function is enabled.)

• To modify the settings of the connected components, please refer to the owner’s manual that

came with the respective component.

After all connections are completed, plug

the subwoofer and other audio/video

components into AC outlets.

This function automatically places the subwoofer in standby mode if the subwoofer does

not detect a signal from the amplifier for a certain period of time. The subwoofer

automatically turns on as soon as it detects a signal from the amplifier.

The Automatic power-switching function works as follows when the AUTO STANDBY

(HIGH/LOW/OFF) switch is set to LOW or HIGH. (Normally, set the switch to LOW.)

How the Automatic power-switching function works

When the Automatic power-switching function is enabled, the subwoofer will detect a bass signal input of

below 200Hz (such as sound effects of explosion in action movies, bass guitar or bass drum sound, etc.).

This value may vary depending on the system environment. For example, it may be affected by noise

generated from other equipment.

NOTE

For this feature to be available, the POWER switch on the rear panel and the STANDBY/ON

switch on the top panel ( page 3) must be set to ON.

NOTE

Be sure to set the POWER switch to OFF before you set the AUTO STANDBY switch.

LOW: The Automatic power-switching function activates at a certain level of input signal.

To enable the function, select this position.

HIGH:If the Automatic power-switching function does not work well when the AUTO

STANDBY switch is set to LOW, select this position. If the function still does not

work, slightly raise the LFE LEVEL on the amplifier.

OFF:

The Automatic power-switchingy function may unexpectedly activate due to the

system environment, for example, if the subwoofer detects noise generated from the

peripheral components. In this case, select this position to disable the Automatic power-

switching function, and manually turn the unit on or off by using the POWER switch.

NOTE

• The subwoofer uses a small amount of power in auto-standby mode.

• If you plan not to use the subwoofer for a long period of time, set the POWER switch on the

rear panel to OFF, or unplug the power cable from the AC outlet.

System connections

Turning on the power to the connected component will automatically turn on the subwoofer.

* The indicator lights green.

Turning off the power to the connected component will automatically turn off the subwoofer.

AUTOMATIC POWER-SWITCHING FUNCTION

The subwoofer automatically enters standby mode if it does not receive an input signal

(*1) from the amplifier for 7 or 8 minutes (*2).

* The indicator color changes from green to red.

When the subwoofer detects an input signal (*1) from the amplifier, the subwoofer

automatically turns on. * The indicator color changes from red to green.

Setting the AUTO STANDBY switch

11 En

To achieve natural sound with an effective super-bass component, you must adjust the volume and tone balance between the subwoofer and the front speakers. Follow the procedure

described below. If your amplifier or other component connected to the system features subwoofer settings, make the appropriate settings on that component.

ADJUSTING THE BALANCE

1. Set the VOLUME control to minimum (0).

2. Turn on the power to the component(s) connected to the subwoofer.

If the component is connected to the subwoofer’s SYSTEM CONNECTOR jack, turn

on the power to that component.

3. Make sure that the POWER switch is set to the ON position, then set the STANDBY/

ON switch to ON.

* The indicator lights green.

4. Play a source that contains low-frequency components and adjust the output level of

the front speakers using the amplifier’s volume control to the desired listening level.

(Set all tone controls to flat.)

5. Adjust the HIGH CUT control to the position where the desired response can be

obtained.

Normally, set the control to a level a little higher than the front speaker’s rated

minimum reproducible frequency*.

* The front speaker’s rated minimum reproducible frequency can be looked up in the speakers’ catalog

or owner’s manual.

* The HIGH CUT control has no effect on signals input to the INPUT 3 LFE terminal. ( page 6)

6. Increase the volume gradually to adjust the volume balance between the subwoofer and

the front speakers.

Normally, set the control to a level where you can obtain a little more bass effect than

when the subwoofer is not used.

7. Set the PHASE switch to the position which yields the more natural (or preferable)

phasing.

8. Set the B.A.S.S. switch to “MOVIE” or “MUSIC” according to the played source.

(NS-SW300 only)

MOVIE:

When a movie type source is played, the low-frequency effects are enhanced to allow

listeners to enjoy a more powerful sound. (The sound will be richer and deeper.)

MUSIC:

When an ordinary music source is played, the excessive low-frequency components are

cut off to make the sound clearer. (The sound will carry less bass and reproduce the

melody line more clearly.)

NOTE

Once the volume balance between the subwoofer and the front speakers is adjusted, you can

adjust the volume of your entire sound system by using the amplifier’s volume control.

However, if you replace the front speakers, you will need to make this adjustment again.

PHASE switch

In most situations, set this switch to select the reverse mode. However, depending

on your speaker systems or listening condition, there may be a case when better

sound quality is obtained by selecting the normal mode. Select the better mode by

monitoring the sound.
