NS-C103

Thank you for selecting this Yamaha NS-C103 speaker system.

PRECAUTIONS

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 is 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.

●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.

BEFORE MAKING CONNECTIONS, MAKE SURE THAT THE

AMPLIFIER IS SWITCHED OFF.

■CONNECTIONS

●Connect the push-type input terminals at the rear of the

speakers to the speaker output terminals of your amplifier with

the provided speaker cables.

●One side of the speaker cable is red and the other side is

black. Connect the (+) terminals on both the amplifier and the

speakers using this red side. Connect the (–) terminals on both

components using the black side of the cable. If connected

with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatural and lack

bass.

Procedures:

➀Press the tab on the terminal down, as shown in the figure.

➁Insert the bare wire end properly into the terminal hole.

[Remove approx. 10 mm (3/8”) insulation from the speaker

cable.]

➂Remove your finger from the tab to allow it to lock snugly on

the cable’s wire end.

➃Check the connection by lightly pulling the cable at the

terminal.

Note

Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this

could damage the speaker and/or the amplifier.

Notes

• Do not place the speaker on top of the TV whose area is

smaller than the bottom area of the speaker. If placed,

the speaker may drop, causing a personal injury.

• Though this speaker is a magnetic shielding type, there

may be some influence on a TV picture depending on the

type of TV or the placement of the speaker. In such a

case, place the speaker apart from the TV so that there is

no influence on TV picture.
