Thank you for selecting this Yamaha NX-E200 speaker system.
PRECAUTIONS
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
electrical 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 the speakers:
Glass, chine, etc.
If glass etc. falls by vibrations and breaks, it may
cause personal injury.
A burning candle etc.
If the candle falls by vibrations, it may cause fire
and personal injury.
A vessel with water in it
If the vessel falls by vibrations and water spills, it
may cause damage to the speakers, and/or you may
get an electrical shock.
• Do not place the speakers where foreign objects such
as water drips might fall. It might cause a fire, damage
to the speakers, and/or personal injury.
• 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.
• Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume
control on your receiver to a lower setting. Never
allow your receiver to be driven into “clipping”.
Otherwise the speakers may be damaged.
• When using a receiver 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.
• 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.
CONNECTION TO YOUR RX-E200
RECEIVER
BEFORE MAKING CONNECTIONS, MAKE SURE
THAT THE RX-E200 RECEIVER IS SWITCHED
OFF.
• When this unit is connected to the RX-E200 receiver,
refer also to the owner's manual supplied with the
receiver.
■ CONNECTIONS
• Connect the screw-type input terminals at the rear of
the speakers to the speaker output terminals of the
receiver with the provided speaker cables.
• One side of the speaker cable is red and the other side
is black. Connect the (+) terminals on the receiver and
speakers using the red side. Connect the (–) terminals
on both components using the black side of the cable.
• Connect one speaker to the left (marked L) terminals
of the receiver, and the other to the right (marked R)
terminals. Make sure not to reverse polarity (+, –).
If a speaker is connected with reverse polarity, the
sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

• Place the speakers on a sturdy, vibration-free surface.
You may not be able to obtain good bass quality when
the speakers are placed directly on the floor. Put a
block, etc. under the speakers.
• Better stereo images will be obtained when the
speakers are slightly angled in towards the listening
position.
The front cover is fastened to the enclosure at four point
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 pegs on the inner surface of
the cover with the four corresponding holes on the
speaker and push gently.

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.
