Welcome to the YST-M10 Powered Monitor Speakers

Thank you for purchasing Yamaha’s YST-M10 Powered Monitor Speakers.

YST-M10 powered monitor speakers use Yamaha’s Active Servo technology to provide high-quality amplification

and output from a compact cabinet. Both cabinets feature a 8 cm (3.5 inch) drive unit and bass port. The right-channel

monitor speaker contains a stereo 10 watt per channel amplifier, with volume and presence controls. A single cable

connects the left-channel monitor speaker.

YST-M10 powered monitor speakers are ideal for use with computer multimedia applications, personal stereo

equipment, keyboard monitoring, and any other application that requires compact, portable high-quality monitoring.

Thanks to the magnetic shielding around each drive unit, they can be sited close to computer monitors and other

magnetically sensitive equipment.

Input connection is via a 3.5 mm stereo jack, and with the supplied 6.25 mm phone jack adaptor and phono/RCA

adaptor, almost any audio source can be connected with ease.

To get the best performance from your YST-M10 monitor speakers, please read this Owner’s Manual carefully.

Then, store it in a safe place for future reference.

Active Servo Technology

Active Servo Technology is a system, pioneered by Yamaha, that allows small and medium size speaker cabinets

to produce the type of bass performance usually only associated with large cabinets.

A precision port in the cabinet provides an outlet for bass frequencies. However, to overcome the natural air resistance

inside the cabinet, which tends to reduce the volume level from a port, a negative-impedance amplifier is used. This

provides a solid bass end and wide frequency response, while keeping distortion at a minimum.

YST-M10 Operating Precautions

Please read the following operating precautions before operating your YST-M10s:

• Use the power supply adaptor designed specifically for the YST-M10 only. Yamaha cannot be held responsible

for damage caused by using other power supply adaptors.

• When disconnecting the power supply adaptor from an AC receptacle, hold and pull the plug, not the power cord.

• If the YST-M10s are not going to be used for a while, disconnect the power supply adaptor from the AC receptacle.

• Always disconnect the power supply adaptor from the AC receptacle before making any connections.

• YST-M10s do not contain any user serviceable parts. Refer all servicing to your Yamaha dealer.

• Do not expose the YST-M10s to temperature extremes or direct sunlight.

• Do not expose the YST-M10s to excessive dust, humidity, or vibration.

• Site the YST-M10s on a level, stable surface.

• Do not drop the YST-M10s, apply excessive force to their controls, or put heavy items on top of them.

• If the YST-M10s should require cleaning, use a soft cloth. If necessary, a damp cloth.

• To protect the YST-M10 speakers, avoid microphone feedback, continuous and excessive output from electronic

musical instruments, excessive signal distortion,

• If the YST-M10s are sited close to fluorescent or neon type lights, a slight hum may be heard. In this case,

relocate the YST-M10s away from the light.

• Although the YST-M10 speakers are magnetically shielded, keep floppy disks and tapes away from them.

• The YST-M10s may cause picture distortion when sited close to a television or computer monitor. In this case,

move them away a little.
