Yamaha NS-E80 Instruction Manual

To achieve optimal sound quality, place the Yamaha NS-E80 speakers at ear level and ensure they are equidistant from the primary listening position. Angling them slightly towards the listener can also enhance the stereo imaging.
Use quality speaker cables to connect the Yamaha NS-E80 speakers to the amplifier. Ensure that the positive and negative terminals on both the amplifier and speakers are correctly matched to prevent phase issues.
Check the connection between the speakers and the amplifier. Ensure that the amplifier is powered on and not muted. Test the speakers with another audio source to rule out issues with the amplifier.
Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the exterior of the speakers. Avoid using liquid cleaners. Regularly check connections and ensure that the speaker ports are free from dust and debris.
The Yamaha NS-E80 speakers are designed for indoor use. Using them outdoors may expose them to moisture and temperature variations that could damage the components.
The recommended amplifier power for Yamaha NS-E80 speakers is between 10 and 100 watts per channel. Ensure the amplifier matches this range to avoid damaging the speakers.
To enhance bass response, consider positioning the speakers closer to a wall or corner. Additionally, using a subwoofer can supplement the low-frequency output of the NS-E80s.
The Yamaha NS-E80 speakers measure approximately 12.5 inches in height, 7.5 inches in width, and 8 inches in depth. Make sure to accommodate these dimensions in your setup.
Distortion can be caused by an overdriven amplifier or damaged speaker cones. Lower the volume and check the speaker cones for visible damage. If the issue persists, consider testing with a different amplifier.
For a home theater setup, place the Yamaha NS-E80 speakers at the front left and right of the viewing area, slightly angled towards the listener. Ensure they are at the same height and distance from the seating area for balanced audio.
