Yamaha developed the YHT-300 A/V Home Theater
package to turn your home into a theater. In addition to
enhancing the sound of a video source, like your TV,
DVD, or VCR, the YHT-300 also superbly reproduces
audio sources, such as a CD player or a cassette deck.
This Quick-Connect Guide will help you get started.
Study the speaker system plan (below), and then use
the interconnect diagrams (on the following pages) to
connect the receiver and speakers to your system.
For the video portion, you will need a DVD player or
hi-fi stereo VCR and a television or monitor. Refer to the
Yamaha HTR-5540 Ownerís Manual
, as well as those that
came with your other components, for complete instruc-
tions and cautions. Be sure to turn off all power while
making connections.
Save this Quick-Connect Guide for future reference.
NOTE: Label the end of each speaker wire (i.e., left rear, right
front, etc.) before connecting them to the A/V receiver. For wire
runs over 30 feet, use larger 18- or 16-gauge speaker wire.
∑
Wire strippers (optional)
∑
Brackets, toggle bolts, molly anchor screws, or sheet
metal screws (for securing NS-AP280A speakers to
walls)
NOTE: If you are unsure of how to securely and safely fasten
speakers to a wall, please contact a reliable source about the best
type of hardware for your particular wall's construction.
Secure installation is the purchaser's responsibility.
