We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Yamaha and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion – and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Since hearing damage from loud sounds is often undetectable until it is too late, Yamaha and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you to avoid prolonged exposure from excessive volume levels.

Installing batteries in the remote control

1 Push the tab on the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow and remove the cover.

Push here

Notes:

• If the operating range of the remote control decreases, replace all of the batteries with new ones.

• Do not use old and new batteries together.

• Do not use different types of batteries together, such as alkaline and manganese. Although they may look similar, each type has its own characteristics.

• When the batteries run out, remove them from the remote control immediately to prevent an explosion or acid leak.

• Always follow the battery disposal regulations for your area.

• If a battery starts leaking, dispose of it immediately. Be careful not to let leaking battery acid come into contact with your skin or clothing.

Before inserting new batteries, wipe the battery compartment clean.

2

Insert the supplied batteries into the battery compartment with the correct polarity

(+ and –).

Operating range

The remote control has an operating range of up to 6 meters (20 feet). When using the remote control, point it toward the DRX-730’s remote control sensor, which is next to the display, see below.

Notes:

• Be careful not to spill liquid on the remote control.

Connecting speaker cables

Speaker cables consist of two insulated wires running together. Speaker connections are polarized and use positive (+) and negative (–) terminals that are colorcoded red and black, respectively. To help you connect the wires correctly, the positive wire is usually marked with a stripe or some other identifier.

All you need to do is to connect the marked wire to the positive (+) terminals on the DRX-730 and speakers, and connect the unmarked wire to the negative (–) terminals. If you get them crossed over, your speakers will be out of phase and the sound will be unnatural and lack bass, so take care.

1 Strip about 10 mm (3/8 in.) of insulation from the end of each wire, and twist the exposed strands together to prevent possible short circuits.

10 mm (3/8 in.)

Connecting a powered subwoofer

You can connect a powered subwoofer (sold separately) to the DRX-730’s SUBWOOFER OUT jack for a really deep bass sound.

Using an audio pin cable (sold separately), connect the DRX-730’s SUBWOOFER OUT jack to the powered subwoofer’s input jack.

En


Connecting a TV

You can connect the DRX-730 to a TV by using any one of four different connection types: HDMI, component video, or composite video. The type you choose will depend on the connections supported by your TV. Refer to your TV owner’s manual for details.

HDMI provides the best picture quality. Component video offers the next best picture quality and the

DRX-730’s component video output supports progressive scanning for even better picture quality. If your TV doesn’t support HDMI or component video, use composite video. Some DRX-730 models have a

SCART jack that can output composite video or RGB component video.

Notes:


• Turn off your TV before connecting it to the

DRX-730.

Tip:

• If your TV has an audio output, you can connect it to the DRX-730’s AUX IN jacks and listen to your favorite TV programs through the speakers connected to the DRX-730.

Composite video connection

If your TV doesn’t support HDMI or component video, you can connect the DRX-730 to your TV with the supplied video pin cable.

Use the supplied video pin cable to connect the

DRX-730’s VIDEO OUT jack to a composite video input on your TV.

Component video connection

If your TV supports component video but not HDMI, you can connect the DRX-730 to your TV with a component video cable. This will provide better picture quality than a composite video connection.

Using a component video cable (sold separately), connect the DRX-730’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a component video input on your TV.

About HDMI

HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia

Interface. An extension of the DVI (Digital Video

Interface) standard used to connect computer displays, HDMI was designed as the next generation digital interface standard for TVs and AV equipment, allowing uncompressed digital video and digital audio in various formats to be delivered on a single cable. With HDMI, separate cables for video and audio connections are no longer necessary. And because it’s digital, it delivers unimpaired high quality video and audio. In addition, HDMI supports the

HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) system that’s used to protect copyrighted video and audio content from illegal copying.

Looking after discs

Storing discs

Always keep discs in their cases and store them vertically in a place that’s not subject to extreme temperatures, extreme humidity, or direct sunlight.

Always read the precautions supplied with the discs.

Handling discs

• Always hold discs by the edge to protect them against fingerprints, scratches, and dirt.

About specially shaped discs

The DRX-730 cannot play discs with a special shape, such as heart and hexagonal-shaped discs. Such discs may cause a malfunction, so do not load them.

Cleaning the pickup lens

If dirt or dust collects on the DRX-730’s pickup lens, the sound may jump or the picture may be disturbed.

In such cases, contact your Yamaha dealer. Do not use commercially available pickup lens cleaners, as they may damage the lens.

• Discs with fingerprints, scratches, or dirt may not play properly. In such cases, using a soft, dry cleaning cloth, wipe the disc from the center outward in straight lines. Do not wipe the disc in a circular motion, as this may damage it. Never use a dirty cleaning cloth.

• For very dirty discs, try using a soft, damp cloth, and be sure to dry the disc afterward. Never use benzine, thinner, or other cleaning agents, such as those designed for cleaning vinyl records.

• Do not load badly damaged, cracked, or warped discs into the DRX-730, as they may damage it.

• Do not affix stickers or labels to discs, as they may cause the disc to warp and become unplayable.

Rental discs often have stickers or labels attached.

Make sure there’s no glue jutting out from behind the label before playing such discs.

• Do not load more than one disc in the DRX-730 at a time.

• For more details on disc handling, refer to the precautions supplied with the disc.

Thank you for selecting this YAMAHA NX-E700 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.

• Never put a hand or a foreign object into the port located on the rear of the speaker as this might cause personal injury and/or damage to the speaker.

• When moving the speaker, do not hold the port as it might cause personal injury and/or damage to the speaker.

• 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.

ACCESSORIES

Check that the following items are included.

Speaker cable (4m) x 2

PLACING THE SPEAKERS

• 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.

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.

CONNECTION TO YOUR DVD

RECEIVER

BEFORE MAKING CONNECTIONS, MAKE SURE THAT

THE DVD RECEIVER IS SWITCHED OFF.

When this unit is connected to the DVD 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.
