Why is there no sound coming from my Yamaha YST-SW005?
If you're not getting any sound from your Yamaha Subwoofer, there are a couple of things to check: * Ensure the VOLUME control isn't set to 0. Turn it clockwise to increase the volume. * Make sure the speaker cables are securely connected.
What to do if my Yamaha YST-SW005 Subwoofer is not turning on?
If your Yamaha Subwoofer isn't powering on even when the power switch is in the ON position, the most likely cause is that the power plug isn't fully connected. Make sure the power plug is securely connected.
Why won't my Yamaha YST-SW005 Subwoofer turn on automatically?
If your Yamaha Subwoofer isn't automatically turning on, here are a few things to check: * Ensure the POWER switch is set to the ON position. * Verify that the AUTO STANDBY switch is set to either the “HIGH” or “LOW” position. * If the input signal level is too low, try setting the AUTO STANDBY switch to the “HIGH” position.
What to do if my Yamaha YST-SW005 Subwoofer doesn't enter standby mode automatically?
If your Yamaha Subwoofer isn't automatically entering standby mode, consider the following: * Noise from external appliances might be interfering. Try moving the subwoofer away from other appliances and/or repositioning the connected speaker cables. Alternatively, set the AUTO STANDBY switch to the “OFF” position. * Ensure the AUTO STANDBY switch is set to the “HIGH” position.
Why does my Yamaha Subwoofer unexpectedly go into standby mode?
If your Yamaha Subwoofer is unexpectedly going into standby mode, the level of input signal might be too low. Try setting the AUTO STANDBY switch to the “HIGH” position.
Why does my Yamaha YST-SW005 Subwoofer turn on by itself?
If your Yamaha Subwoofer is turning on unexpectedly, it could be due to noise from external appliances. Try moving the subwoofer farther away from such appliances and/or repositioning the connected speaker cables. Otherwise, set the AUTO STANDBY switch to the “OFF” position.

The Yamaha YST-SW005 is a subwoofer system designed to enhance the low-frequency sound reproduction of an audio system, providing a more realistic, theater-in-the-home effect. It incorporates Yamaha's Advanced Active Servo Technology for high-quality super-bass sound.
The primary function of the YST-SW005 is to reproduce low-frequency sounds (bass) that main speakers might not fully capture. It can be easily integrated into existing audio systems, connecting either to the amplifier's speaker terminals or line output (pin jack) terminals. The subwoofer features a built-in power amplifier, which radiates heat from the rear panel, necessitating adequate space around the unit for ventilation.
The Advanced Yamaha Active Servo Technology employed in this subwoofer is based on two main factors: the Helmholtz resonator and negative-impedance drive. The system uses an "air woofer" (a port or opening in the speaker's cabinet) to reproduce bass frequencies. This design allows low-amplitude signals within the cabinet to be outputted as high-amplitude waves, provided the opening size and cabinet volume are correctly proportioned. The negative-impedance drive circuits enable the amplifier to generate precise, low-amplitude, low-frequency waves with superior damping characteristics, resulting in an extremely wide range of frequencies with amazing sound quality and less distortion. The Advanced Negative Impedance Converter (ANIC) circuits dynamically vary to select an optimum value for speaker impedance, providing more stable performance and improved sound pressure for natural and dynamic bass reproduction.
The YST-SW005 includes an automatic power-switching function (AUTO STANDBY) that allows the unit to enter standby mode after 7 to 8 minutes of no input signal, and automatically turn on when an audio signal is detected. This feature helps conserve power. The power indicator on the front panel lights green when the unit is on and red when in standby mode.
