PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
■ To assure the finest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
■ Choose the installation location of this unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid
locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or
moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as
transformers and electric motors.
■ Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat, possibly
causing damage.
■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact
your dealer
■ The openings on the cabinet assure proper ventilation of the unit.
If these openings are obstructed, the temperature inside the
cabinet will rise rapidly and eventually damage the circuits.
Therefore, avoid placing objects against these openings and do
not install the unit where the flow of air through the ventilation
openings could be impeded.
■ Always set the VOLUME control to “0” before starting the audio
source play: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate
level after the play has been started.
■ When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time (ie.,
vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.
■ Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken so that
the grounding or polarization of an appliance is not defeated.
■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When
moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires
connected to other equipment. Never pull the wire itself.
■ Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might
damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
■ Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section regarding
common operating errors before concluding that the unit is faulty.
■ To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and
the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm.
■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you
finish all connections.
■ Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come

smooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of the
heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance
quality.
■ Although the cassette deck’s record/playback heads used in this
unit are high quality heads with outstanding reproduction
characteristics, they can become dirty through the use of old
tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a
serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly
with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with
cleaning solutions.
■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on
this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage than that which
is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of

for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other
than that which is specified.
■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on a
combination of speaker efficiency, location and many other
factors. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to sudden high
levels of sound, which may occur when turning on the unit with
the volume control setting at high, and to continuous high levels
of sound.

of MX-S90 to the proper position before connections.
If you use YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Speaker
System NX-S90, set this switch to “NX-S90”.
If you use a speaker system other than NX-S90, set this
switch to “CONVENTIONAL”.
Connecting the AC supply leads
These connections must be done after all other connections
have been completed.
• First, plug the AC supply lead of MX-S90 into the AC
OUTLET on the rear of CTX-S90.
• Next, plug the AC supply lead of CTX-S90 into a wall AC
outlet.
*
Unplug the AC supply lead of CTX-S90 from the AC outlet
if the system is not to be used for a long period of time.
AC OUTLET (SWITCHED) on the rear panel of CTX-S90
Use this to connect the AC supply lead from another
component to CTX-S90.
The power to this outlet is controlled by the POWER switch
of CTX-S90 or the provided remote control transmitter.
This outlet will supply power to the connected component
whenever CTX-S90 is turned on.
The maximum power (power consumption of component)
that can be connected to the AC OUTLET (SWITCHED) is
420 watts.
It is the best way to connect the AC supply lead of MX-S90
to this outlet. By doing so, the power of the whole system
can be turned on/off by the POWER switch of CTX-S90 or
the provided remote control transmitter.
After the connection, keep the POWER switch of MX-S90
in the ON position.

still present inside the system. If you want to switch off the
system completely, disconnect the AC power plug from the
AC outlet.
TURNING THE POWER ON/OFF TO THIS SYSTEM
If the AC supply lead of CTX-S90 is connected to the AC
outlet, this system can be turned ON and OFF (STANDBY
mode) by pressing the POWER switch on the front panel of
CTX-S90 or on the remote control transmitter.
* If the AC supply lead of MX-S90 is not connected to the AC

Care of compact discs
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however
mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the
disc surface.
Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from
your CD collection and player.
•
Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-
label side. Signals are read from the non-label side. Do
not mark this surface.
•
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat and
excessive moisture.
•
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt or
water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD
is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry
cloth, wiping straight out from the center, along the radius.

TUNING OPERATION
Fundamental rules of internal automatic preset tuning
operation
Basically, FM stations are programmed onto area A, B and C,
and AM stations are programmed onto area D and E (MW
stations are onto D and LW stations are onto E) in that order
automatically.
* If, for example, the number of received FM stations is not
enough to fill up three areas (A, B and C), AM (MW or LW)
stations are programmed closely from the preceeding
empty areas. In such a case, AM (MW) stations are
programmed from area B or C (and LW stations are from
area C or D.)
* Moreover, one area is programmed with stations of the
same band only. If, for example, the last FM station is
programmed to B4, B5–B8 will be programmed with no
station, and AM (MW) stations are programmed from area
C.
Memory back-up
The memory back-up circuit prevents the programmed data
from being lost even if the AC supply lead is disconnected
from the AC outlet or the power is cut due to temporary
power failure. If, however, the power is cut for more than one
week, the memory may be erased. If so, it can be re-
programmed by simply following the Preset tuning steps.

General information
•
Do not use C-120 tapes, tapes with internal reels or poor-
quality tapes, since they can cause malfunctions.
•
Before loading a tape into the cassette compartment,
tighten the slack tape with a pen or pencil.
•
Tapes have removable tabs which prevent accidental
recording or erasing from taking place. Removing the tab
on the top left protects the side facing you from erasure.
Cover the tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or record
again.
•
This deck is a Single Cassette Deck with Automatic
Reverse Function.
•
This deck features an auto tape selector. Just load the
tape, and the tape formula being used will be sensed
automatically.
•
This unit can play back metal tapes as well as normal or
chrome tapes, and recording can also be done on metal
tapes.
•
When covering erasure prevention tab holes, do not cover
the chrome and metal detection holes. Otherwise, the
deck will treat tape as normal tape.
•
Do not press the OPEN/CLOSE button during playback or
recording.
Tape playback
1 Press the TAPE input selector button.
2 Open the cassette compartment by pressing the
OPEN/CLOSE button.
3 Load the tape into the cassette compartment.
4 Set the Dolby NR switch to B or C if the tape has been
recorded with Dolby noise reduction, and to OFF if Dolby
NR was not used.
* For selection of the Dolby B or C position, refer to the
“Dolby B and C Type Noise Reduction” on page 27.
5 Set the reverse mode switch as desired.
The reverse mode switch can be operated before or during
playback, and changes tape playback as follows:

Dolby B and C Type Noise Reduction
With cassette tapes, the most noticeable form of noise is high
frequency hiss. To reduce this hiss noise, this unit has been
equipped with a newly developed Dolby C noise reduction
system in addition to its conventional Dolby B NR. Either type
of noise reduction may be selected with the switch provided.
Dolby B NR has a noise reduction effect of about 10 dB in
the high frequency range. The corresponding figure with
Dolby C NR is about 20 dB, but this is over the entire range
where the human ear is most sensitive to noise (2 kHz to 8
kHz). Also, Dolby C NR has the same noise reduction effect
at both high and low signal levels. In addition, Dolby C NR
improves the tape’s MOL (Maximum Output Level).
Dolby noise reduction is a 2 part process that acts both on
recording and playback; be sure that the noise reduction
button is set to the same position on record and play.
* Noise in the source material cannot be reduced with the
Dolby NR system.

Dolby HX PRO Dynamic Bias Servo System
This unit incorporates the Dolby HX Pro system which
automatically controls the effective bias to reduce distortion
and noise, improving high frequency response during
recording. Tapes recorded with this system retain the same
high quality even when played back on any other tape deck.
To stop playback
Press the stop button.
Note
When removing the tape, press the stop button, and then
open the cassette compartment.
Direct operation
Even if an input source other than tape deck is selected,
pressing the play button (or the fast wind button) will start
playback (or fast winding) directly.
Tape Counter (LINEAR COUNTER) and RESET
button
This unit is equipped with a tape counter which is useful for
searching and locating a desired point on tape. The tape
counter is displayed by minutes and seconds, though the
displayed time is not so close to the actual elapsed time.
(It will be close to the actual elapsed time by using a tape
with the length of 60 minutes or 90 minutes.)
Pressing the RESET button on the left side of the tape
counter resets the tape counter to “0:00”.
REMAIN indicators
The remaining amount of the tape for the side now being
played back is shown by the illumination of these indicators.
According as the tape is played back, the indicators will go
out one by one.
When the tape playback nears the end of the side, the
indicator at the left end flashes rapidly. However, when using
a tape with large hubs, the tape may stop before the indicator
flashes. This is because the error between the displayed time
and the actual elapsed time becomes large when using these
tapes.

Signals
The theory of the Active Servo Technology is based upon two
major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and negative-
impedance drive. Active Servo Processing speakers
reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air woofer”,
which is a small port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet.
This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions
of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system.
Thus, signals of low amplitude within the cabinet can,
according to the Helmholtz resonance theory, be output from
this opening as waves of great amplitude if the design is such
that the size of the opening and the volume of the cabinet are
in the correct proportion to satisfy a certain ratio.
In order to accomplish this, moreover, the amplitudes within
the cabinet must be both precise and of sufficient power
because these amplitudes must overcome the “load”
presented by the air that exists within the cabinet.
Thus it is this problem that is resolved through the
employment of a design in which the amplifier functions to
supply the signals. If the electrical resistance of the voice coil
is reduced to zero, the movement of the speaker unit would
become linear with respect to signal voltage, and, to
accomplish this, a special negative-impedance output-drive
amplifier for subtracting output impedance of the amplifier is
used.
By employing negative-impedance drive circuits, the amplifier
is able to generate precise, low-amplitude low-frequency
waves with superior damping characteristics, and these
waves are then radiated from the cabinet opening as high-
amplitude signals. The system can, therefore, by employing
the negative-impedance output drive amplifier and a speaker
cabinet with the Helmholtz resonator, reproduce an extremely
wide range of frequencies with amazing sound quality and
less distortion.
The features described above are combined to be the
fundamental structure of the Active Servo Technology.
