CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.
1 To assure the finest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
2 Install the speakers in a cool, dry, clean place – away from
windows, sources of heat, sources of excessive vibration,
dust, moisture or cold. Avoid sources of electrical humming
(e.g., transformers and motors). To prevent fire or electric
shock, do not expose the speakers to rain or water.
3 To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do not
expose the speakers to direct sunlight or excessive humidity.
4 Avoid installing the speakers where foreign objects may fall
onto them and/or where they may be exposed to liquid
dripping or splashing.
5 Do not place the following objects on top of the speakers:
– Other components, as they might damage or discolor the
surface of the speakers.
– Burning objects (e.g., candles), as they might cause fire,
damage to the speakers or personal injury.
– Containers of liquid, as they might spill and cause electric
shock to the user or damage to the speakers.
6 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.
7 Placing the speakers on the same shelf or rack as the
turntable can result in feedback.
8
Secure placement or installation is the owner’s responsibility.
YA M A H A
is not liable for accidents caused by improper
placement or installation of speakers.
9 If you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your
amplifier. Do not drive your amplifier to the point of
“clipping”. Otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.
10 When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher
than the nominal input power of the speakers, care should be
taken not to exceed the maximum input of the speakers.
11 Do not clean the speakers with chemical solvents as this
might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
12 Do not attempt to modify or fix the speakers. Contact
qualified YAMAHA service personnel when service is
needed. Do not open the cabinet under any circumstances.
13 Please read the “Troubleshooting” section regarding common
operating errors before concluding that the speakers are
faulty.
For SW-P440
1 Do not operate this unit upside down. It may overheat, possibly
causing damage.
2 Do not use excessive force on switches, controls or connection
wires. When moving this unit, first disconnect the power plug
and the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wires
themselves.
3 Since this unit has a built-in power amplifier, heat radiates from
the rear panel. Place the unit away from walls, allowing at least
20 cm of space above, behind and on both sides of the unit to
prevent fire or damage. Furthermore, do not position the unit
with the rear panel facing down on the floor or other surfaces.
4 When using a humidifier, be sure to avoid condensation
inside this unit by allowing enough space around the unit and
avoiding excess humidification. Condensation might cause
fire, damage to the unit, and/or electric shock.
5 Do not cover the rear panel of this unit with a newspaper,
tablecloth, curtain, etc. to avoid obstructing heat radiation. If
the temperature inside the unit rises, it may cause fire,
damage to the unit, or personal injury.
6 Do not plug this unit into a wall outlet until all connections
are complete.
7 The voltage to be used must match that specified on the rear
panel. Using this unit with a voltage higher than specified is
dangerous and may cause fire, damage to the unit, and/or
personal injury. YAMAHA is not responsible for damage
resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than
specified.
8 Super-bass sound reproduced by this unit may cause a
turntable to generate audio feedback. In this case, move the
unit away from the turntable.
9 This unit may be damaged if certain sounds are continuously
output at high volume level. For example, if 20Hz–50Hz sine
waves from a test disc or bass sounds from an electronic
instrument, etc. are continuously output, or if a turntable
stylus touches the surface of a disc, reduce the volume level
to prevent the unit from being damaged.
10 If you hear distorted noise (i.e., unnatural, intermittent
“rapping” or “hammering” sounds) from this unit, reduce the
volume level. Extremely loud movie soundtrack low
frequency, bass-heavy sounds, or similarly loud popular
music passages can damage this unit.
11 Vibration generated by super-bass sound may distort images
on a TV. In this case, move the unit away from the TV set.
12 When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet,
grasp the plug; do not pull the cord.
13 When you plan not to use this unit for a long period of time
(i.e. vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the
wall outlet.
14 Install this unit near the wall outlet and where the AC power
plug can be reached easily.
CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.
This unit features a magnetically shielded design, but there is
still a chance that placing it too close to a TV set might impair
picture color. Should this happen, move this unit away from
the TV set.
As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall outlet, it is
not disconnected from the AC power source even if you turn
off this unit by POWER.

English
•
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 your audio system.
Place the speakers depending on your listening position by following the instructions below.
<NS-P440>
This speaker package employs a 6 speaker configuration:
2 front speakers, a center speaker, 2 surround speakers and
a subwoofer.
The front speakers carry most of the music/sound effects.
The center speaker emits center sound such as dialog, and
the surround speakers provide the surround/ambient
effects. The subwoofer adds the low-frequency bass
sound.
<NS-P446>
This speaker package employs a 7 speaker configuration:
2 front speakers, a center speaker, 2 surround speakers, a
surround center speaker and a subwoofer.
The front speakers carry most of the music/sound effects.
The center speaker emits center sound such as dialog, and
the surround and surround center speakers provide the
surround/ambient effects. The subwoofer adds the low-
frequency bass sound.
The same speakers (NX-E440) are used for the front and
surround speakers and surround center speakers (for NS-P446).
Front speakers: On both sides of your TV set. Approximately at
the same height as the TV set.
Surround speakers:
Behind your listening position, facing slightly
inward. About 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) from the
floor.
Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers.
You can place the center speaker on top of the
TV if the top is flat, on the floor under the TV,
or inside the TV rack. Be sure to place the
speaker in a stable position.
Surround center speaker (for NS-P446):
Precisely between the surround speakers.
Subwoofer: The position of the subwoofer is not so critical
because bass sound is not highly directional.
Refer to “Placing the subwoofer (SW-P440)”
on page 5 for a recommended positioning of
the subwoofer.

SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS
You can mount the speakers on a wall. To mount the speakers on a wall, use the holes of the brackets attached on the back
panels of the speakers.
1 Fasten two screws into a firm wall or wall
support at the interval shown below.
2 Hang the speaker by mounting the holes on
the protruding screws.
Make sure that the screws are securely affixed by the
narrow parts of the holes.
• Each speaker weighs as follows
........................................................................... 1.4 kg
• Do not mount the speakers on thin plywood or a
wall composed of a soft surface material. If
mounted, the screws may pull out of the flimsy
surface and the speakers may fall. This may
damage the speakers or cause personal injury.
• Do not affix the speakers to a wall using nails,
adhesives, or any other unstable hardware. Long-
term use and vibrations may cause the speakers to
fall.
• To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over
loose speaker cables, fix the cables to the wall.
• Select an appropriate position on the wall to mount
the speaker so that no one will injure his/her head
or face.

You can also use the screw holes on the rear panel or the
bottom of the speakers to install the speakers on
commercially available wall/ceiling brackets or speaker
stands (if you do not use the attached mounting brackets).
■ Using commercially available wall/
ceiling brackets
■ Using commercially available speaker
stands
*
The YAMAHA speaker stand SPS-30MMS may not be
available in some areas.
When placing the speaker on top of the TV rack, etc., attach the
provided fasteners at two points on the bottom of the speaker and
on the top of the TV.
• Do not place the center speaker on top of a TV whose area is
smaller than the bottom of the speaker. If placed, the speaker
may fall and cause injury.
• Do not place the center speaker on top of a TV if the top is
inclined.
• Do not touch the adhesive surface after peeling off the seal as
this will waken its adhesive strength.
• Thoroughly wipe clean the surface where the fastener is to be
applied. Note that adhesive strength is weakened if the surface
is dirty, oily or wet and that this may cause the center speaker to
fall.
It is recommended to place the subwoofer on the outside
of either the right or the left front speaker (figure A). The
placement shown in figure B is also possible, however, if
the subwoofer is placed directly facing the wall, the bass
sound may lessen because the sound from the subwoofer
and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each
other. To prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer
obliquely to the wall.
■ Use the non-skid pads
Put the provided non-skid pads at the four corners on the
bottom of the subwoofer to prevent the subwoofer from
moving by vibrations, etc.

USING THE SUBWOOFER (SW-P440)
English
In 1988, Yamaha brought to the speaker systems utilizing
YST (Yamaha Active Servo Technology) to give powerful,
high quality bass reproduction. This technology uses a
direct connection between the amplifier and speaker,
allowing accurate signal transmission and precise speaker
control.
As this technology uses speaker units controlled by the
negative impedance drive of the amplifier and resonance
generated between the cabinet capacity volume and port, it
creates more resonant energy (the “air woofer” concept)
than the standard bass reflex method. This allows for bass
reproduction from much smaller cabinets than was
previously possible.
Yamaha’s newly developed Advanced YST II adds many
refinements to Yamaha Active Servo Technology,
allowing better control of the forces driving the amplifier
and speaker. From the amplifier’s point of view, the
speaker impedance changes depending on the sound
frequency. Yamaha developed a new circuit design
combining negative-impedance and constant-current
drives, which provides a more stable performance and
clear bass reproduction without any murkiness.
QD-BASS (Quatre Dispersion Bass) technology uses
down-firing drivers with square, pyramid-shaped
reflective plates to radiate the sound efficiently in four
horizontal directions. The reflective plates (not used in
competitors' down-firing subwoofers) negate any effects
caused by the floor surface and reduce resonance between
sound waves reflected from the floor and the unit. Also,
most other systems use circular cones, but by radiating in
four directions to avoid the legs of the cabinet, QD-BASS
reduces turbulence caused by reflection from the legs.
Changing the height of the square pyramid varies the
acoustic load, permitting relatively simple high-cut
adjustment and improved band pass properties.
The QD-BASS system provides extraordinary power and
smooth frequency response from an extremely compact
unit. It also allows greater freedom of placement, since the
sound radiates with equal effectiveness in all directions.
