CAUTIONS

Read this before using the speakers.

●To assure the finest performance, please read this

manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future

reference.

●Install the speakers in a cool, dry, clean place –

away from windows, heat sources, sources of

excessive vibration, dust, moisture and cold. Avoid

sources of humming (transformers, motors). To

prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose the

speakers to rain or water.

●To prevent the enclosure from warping or

discoloring, do not place the speakers where they

will be exposed to direct sunlight or excessive

humidity.

●Do not place the following objects on top of the

speakers:

•Other components, as they might cause damage

and/or discoloration on the surface of the

speakers.

•Burning objects (i.e. candles), as they might cause

fire, damage to the speakers and/or personal

injury.

•Containers with liquid in them. If the liquid spills, it

might cause electric shock to the user and/or

damage to the speakers.

●Do not place the speakers where they are liable to

be knocked over or struck by falling objects. Stable

placement will also ensure better sound

performance.

●Placing the speakers 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 speakers.

●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 speakers may be damaged.

Natural Sound 3-way acoustic-suspension speaker system

Thank you for selecting the Yamaha NS-1000MM speaker system.

●When using an amplifier with a rated output power

higher than the nominal input power of the speakers,

care should be taken never to exceed the speakers’

maximum input.

●Do not attempt to clean the speakers with chemical

solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a

clean, dry cloth.

●Do not attempt to modify or fix the speakers.

Contact qualified YAMAHA service personnel when

any service is needed. The cabinet should never be

opened for any reasons.

REMOVING THE FRONT COVER

The front cover is fastened to the enclosure at four

points and can be removed if desired. To remove the

cover, hold on to both sides and slowly pull straight

away from the speaker. To reattach, line up the four

holes on the inner surface of the cover with the four

corresponding pegs on the speaker and push gently.

Note

When the cover is removed, be sure not to touch

the speaker units with your hands or to exert

excessive force with tools.

SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS

■To mount the speakers on a wall by using

the provided mounting brackets

1Attach the bracket to the rear of the speaker by

using the provided screws.

2Remove the provided pads from the backing sheet

and put them at the lower corners of the speakers.

WARNING

●Each speaker weighs 3.0 kg (6 lbs. 10 oz.). Do not

mount them on thin plywood or a wall with soft

surface material. If mounted, the screws may

come out of the flimsy surface and the speakers

may fall. This damages the speakers or causes

personal injury.

●Do not install the speakers to a wall with nails,

adhesives, or any other unstable hardware. Long-

term use and vibrations may cause them to fall.

●To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over

loose speaker cords, fix them to the wall.

3Fasten screws into a firm wall or wall support as

shown in the figure, and hang the holes of the

mounting bracket on the protruding screws.

* Make sure that the screws are securely caught by

the narrow parts of the holes.

■Connections

•Connect the screw-type input terminals at the rear of

the speakers to the speaker output terminals of your

amplifier with the provided speaker cables.

•Connect the (+) terminals on both the amplifier and

the speakers using one side of the speaker cable.

Connect the (–) terminals on both components using

the other side of the cable.

•Connect one speaker to the left (marked L) terminals

of your amplifier, and another speaker to the right

(marked R) terminals, making sure not to reverse the

polarity (+, –). If one speaker is connected with

reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatural and

lack bass.

■Placing the speakers

• Place the speakers on a sturdy, vibration-free

surface or speaker stands.

• Better stereo images will be obtained when the

speakers are slightly angled in towards the listeners.

Note

These speakers feature a magnetically shielded

design, but there is still a chance that placing

them too close to a TV set might impair picture

color. Should this happen, move the speakers

away from the TV set.
