Yamaha NS-AP3700 Owner's Manual

To connect the Yamaha NS-AP3700 speakers to an AV receiver, use speaker wire. Connect the positive (+) terminal on the speaker to the positive terminal on the receiver, and the negative (-) terminal on the speaker to the negative terminal on the receiver. Ensure the receiver is powered off during this process.
The recommended amplifier power for the Yamaha NS-AP3700 speakers is between 10 and 100 watts per channel. Using an amplifier within this range will ensure optimal performance without risking damage to the speakers.
To clean and maintain your Yamaha NS-AP3700 speakers, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the finish. Regular dusting will help maintain their appearance.
If there's no sound, first check the connections between the speakers and amplifier. Ensure the amplifier is powered on and not muted. Verify that the source device is playing audio and the volume is turned up. Finally, test the speakers with another device to rule out equipment issues.
The Yamaha NS-AP3700 speakers are designed for indoor use. Using them outdoors can expose them to moisture and extreme temperatures, potentially causing damage. Consider using outdoor-specific speakers for such environments.
To improve bass response, consider adjusting the equalizer settings on your receiver or adding a subwoofer to your setup. Proper speaker placement, such as near a wall, can also enhance bass.
The Yamaha NS-AP3700 speakers have an impedance of 6 ohms. Ensure your amplifier or receiver is compatible with this impedance level to avoid any potential issues.
The Yamaha NS-AP3700 speakers come with wall-mounting brackets. Use the brackets to securely attach the speakers to the wall, following the instructions provided in the user manual. Ensure they are mounted on studs or use appropriate anchors for stability.
Use high-quality speaker wire with a gauge of 16 or 14 AWG for best results. Thicker cables (lower gauge numbers) are recommended for longer runs to reduce resistance and maintain sound quality.
To reduce distortion at high volumes, ensure your amplifier is not overdriving the speakers. Adjust the equalizer to reduce bass and treble boosts, and ensure the amplifier's output is within the recommended power range for the speakers.
