COMPONENTS OF THE PACKAGE The speaker package “NS-P430 and NS-P436” is designed for use in a multi-channel audio system such as a home theater system.

NS-P436 includes five NX-430P speaker systems, one NXC430 speaker system and one YST-SW015 subwoofer system.
Before making connections, place all speakers in their respective positions. The positioning of the speakers is important because it controls the whole sound quality of this system. Place the speakers depending on your listening position by following the instructions below.

䡵 Placing the subwoofer Å ( ı : Subwoofer, : Main speaker) It is recommended to place the subwoofer on the outside of either the right or the left main speaker. (See fig. Å .) The placement shown in fig. ı is also possible, however, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the bass effect may die because the sound from it and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. To prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer system at an angle as shown in fig. Å.

ADVANCED YAMAHA ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY (for YST-SW015) The theory of Yamaha Active Servo Technology has been based upon two major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and negative-impedance drive. Active Servo Processing speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air woofer”, which is a port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet. This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system.
