Connecting the Speakers

CONNECTION EXAMPLE

The illustration below shows audio connections for a standard setup using two speaker systems.

DAISY-CHAINING SPEAKERS

Since the speaker systems in this series are equipped with two input terminals that are internally connected in parallel, it is

possible “daisy-chain” speakers by connecting the output from the power amplifier to one phone jack, and a second speaker

system to the other.

All speaker models in this series have a nominal impedance of 8

Ω. Since most power amplifiers are designed to provide stable

performance at a load impedance of 4 or 8

Ω, Yamaha recommends that no more than two 8Ω speaker systems be daisy-chained

together. This will allow the amplifier to operate properly and avoid overheating.

CAUTION!

For the four models, S10e, S12e, S15e and S12Me, use the

TS-30, TS-40, TS-80, or TS-90 speaker stand by Ultimate

Support System, Inc. sold separately.

When using speaker stands, observe the following precau-

tions to prevent the speaker stands from falling over or the

speaker system being dropped.

• Use the speaker stands with their legs fully opened.

• Do not place more than one speaker on the same speaker

stand.

• Tighten fastening screws securely.

• Remove the speakers from the stands before moving the

stands or adjusting their height.

• Implement measures to prevent the speaker stands from

falling over.

• Use the stand at no higher than 150 cm for all speaker

models.

• The top tube of the TS-30 and TS-40 speaker stands has

a diameter of 1-1/2", but is tapered to 1-3/8" at the top to

fit in the mounting holes on the four models named. If

you should remove the top tube from a stand, be sure to

insert it with the narrow end up when reassembling.
