Advanced YST
yAired MCR-140
In 1988, Yamaha brought to the marketplace speaker systems
utilizing YST (Yamaha Active Servo Technology) to give
powerful, high quality bass reproduction. This technique 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 speaker cabinet 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.
Real-time uncompressed music transfer without sound
degradation is realized by Yamaha original digital wireless
transfer technology, yAired. You can also control turning on/
standby and volume with the iPod by yAired.

CONNECTION
Basic connection
Follow the procedure below to connect the speakers and indoor FM antenna to this unit.
CAUTION
Do not connect the power cable of this unit until all cable connections are completed.
Indoor FM antenna
Notes
• The antenna should be stretched out.
• If radio reception is poor, change the height,
direction, or placement of the antenna.
To the wall outlet
• If you use an outdoor antenna instead of the
supplied FM antenna, reception will be better.
Notes
• Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+”(red) “–”(black) properly. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be
heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lacks bass.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/
or the speakers.
• Use the supplied speakers only. Using different speakers may cause the sound to differ from the intended design.
• There is a chance that placing speakers too close to a CRT-based (Braun tube) TV set might impair picture color. Should this happen,
move the speakers away from the TV set.
