Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Yamaha C450/320/160 series power amplifier.
This series of audio amps was developed from Yamaha's wealth of experience in building PA
equipment and its tradition of careful attention to every detail of circuit design. These amps
feature high power and superb quality together with superior reliability and stability, guaran-
teeing the highest possible audio performance.
Main features of the C450/320/160 series
• Two types of input (balanced XLR type connectors and barrier strip), and barrier strip
for outputs are provided.
• Three operating modes are provided: STEREO mode in which CHANNEL A and B
operate independently, PARALLEL mode in which a mono source is output by two amp
systems, and BRIDGE mode in which the unit operates as a single high-power amplifier.
• A SIGNAL indicator and CLIP indicator is provided for each channel.
• The PROTECTION indicator shows the status of protective circuitry such as power-on/
off protection, output muting, and the DC detection circuit. The TEMP indicator warns
of heat sink overheating.
• Variable-speed low-noise fan(s) ensures high reliability even under demanding condi-
tions.
• The C450/320/160 has implemented “EEEngine”, Yamaha’s epochal amp drive
technology to create an unrivaled high-efficiency drive.
The EEEngine’s energy-saver/low-heat-generation design has reduced power consump-
tion to 50% or less, and reduced heat generation to 35% or less (in field applications,
compared to Yamaha’s previous models), and has lead to a reduction in energy cost and
to less-restrictive installation requirements related to heat generation.
This owner's manual covers the three models C450, C320 and C160. In order to take full
advantage of your power amp and enjoy long and trouble-free operation, please read this
owner's manual carefully before use.

Precautions
1. Avoid excessive heat, humidity, dust and vibration.
Keep the unit away from locations where it is likely to be
exposed to high temperatures or humidity — such as
near radiators, stoves, etc. Also avoid locations which
are subject to excessive dust accumulation or vibration
which could cause mechanical damage.
2. Ventilation
Allow a distance of 10 cm between the unit and the wall
so that heat generated from the unit will be released
effectively. Also, allow enough space between the unit
and other devices. If you mount the unit in an audio rack,
keep a space of 10 cm on the top panel, and a space of
1 cm to the side panel. Remove the rear panel of the rack
or open a vent hole. If heat release is inadequate, the unit
will retain heat inside the unit, which may cause a fire.
3. Avoid physical shocks.
Strong physical shocks to the unit can cause damage.
Handle it with care.
4. Do not open the case or attempt repairs or modifica-
tions yourself.
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer
all maintenance to qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Opening the case and/or tampering with the internal
circuitry will void the warranty.
5. Make sure power is off before making or removing
connections.
Always turn the power OFF prior to connecting or
disconnecting cables. This is important to prevent dam-
age to the unit itself as well as other connected equip-
ment.
6. Handle cables carefully.
Always plug and unplug cables — including the AC cord
— by gripping the connector, not the cord.
7. Clean with a soft dry cloth.
Never use solvents such as benzine or thinner to clean
the unit. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
8. Always use the correct power supply.
Make sure that the power supply voltage specified on the
rear panel matches your local AC mains supply. Also
make sure that the AC mains supply can deliver more
than enough current to handle all equipment used in your
system.

1 POWER switch and indicator
This is the main POWER switch. Press to power ON
the amplifier. Press again to power OFF. The POWER
indicator lights up when the amplifier is powered ON.
2 TEMP indicator
When the temperature of the heat sink exceeds 85
degrees Celsius, this indicator will light red.
3 PROTECTION indicator
This red LED indicator lights up for approximately 3
seconds when the amplifier is powered ON, indicating
that the soft-start protection system is working. No
sound is output during soft-start up. If one of the
protection systems is activated during normal use, this
indicator lights up and no sound is output. The
speaker system is actually disconnected from the
amplifier outputs when this indicator lights up. The
protection systems are activated when overheating
occurs or a DC voltage is present at the amplifier
outputs. If the problem is corrected, the protection
systems deactivate automatically, this indicator goes
out, and normal amplifier operation is resumed.
4 CLIP indicators
These red LED indicators light up when the respective
channel’s output signal distortion exceeds 1% (i.e.
clipping). Output signal clipping is usually due to
excessive input signal levels.
5 SIGNAL indicators
These green LED indicators light up when the
respective channel’s output signal exceeds 2 Vrms.
This is equivalent to 1/2 watt into 8Ω, 1 W into 4Ω.

2. Remove the cover attachment screw(s) and remove
the protective cover from the speaker terminals.
Screw
3. After removing approx. 15 mm of insulation from the
ends of the speaker cables, bind the bare ends of the
speaker wires in the corresponding speaker terminals
and tighten the terminals to securely clamp the wires.
Refer to page 3 for speaker porality.
15mm*
* Shown actual size.
At this time make sure that the bare ends of the
speaker cables do not extend from the terminals in
such a way that they touch the chassis.
Wire should not
touch the chassis.
4. Reattach the protective cover over the speaker
terminals.
• Speaker fuse
The output capacity of your amplifier is very high:
460 W+460 W (8Ω) in stereo and 1240 W (8Ω) in
monaural on the C450; 340 W+340 W (8Ω) in stereo
and 880 W (8Ω) in monaural on the C320; 160
W+160 W (8Ω) in stereo and 400 W (8Ω) in monau-
ral on the C160. Be sure to use a speaker system that
has sufficient input capacity.
If the input capacity of your speaker system is lower
than the rated output of the power amplifier, you can
protect your speakers by connecting a fuse serially
between the speaker and amplifier as shown below.
_
+ _
+
Power amplifier
Speaker system
Fuse
Use the following formula to determine the fuse
capacity according to the speaker’s input capacity.
Po = I R → I = Po/R
2
P0 [W] : Speaker’s continuous input capacity (noise
or RMS)
R [Ω] : Speaker’s nominal impedance
I [A] : Required fuse capacity
ex.) Speaker’s continuous input capacity : 100 W
Speaker’s impedance : 8Ω
I = 100/8
In this example, the required fuse capacity is calcu-
lated as 3.5 [A].
• Speaker cable
If you use a long speaker cable, use as thick a cable as
possible to prevent deterioration of the damping factor
or power loss inside the cable.

Rack Mounting
■ Mounting in an EIA standard rack
If multiple high-power amp units are mounted in a rack with poor ventilation, the heat from the amps will cause the
interior of the amp to become very hot, causing the performance of the amps to be impaired. When mounting amps in
a rack, you must make provision for ventilation so that the heat can escape.
When mounting amps in a rack, please attach ventilation panels above and below the amp to allow air circulation.
When doing so, it is necessary for 35% or more of the entire surface area of a 1U size panel to be open.
Air circulation will be even better if the top surface of the rack has ventilation openings.
Ventilation panel
Yamaha provides an optional 1U-size ventilation panel VP1.
Unit: mm
480
44
■ Mounting four or fewer amps in
an open-backed rack
Install the ventilation panel above the amps, as shown
in the following figure.
Ventilation panel
(attach to the front
or rear of the rack)
■ Mounting five or more amps, or
when (even with four or fewer
units) the back of the rack cannot
be left open
Install ventilation panels above and below each amp,
as shown in the following figure.
7
■ Portable Rack Mounting
The amplifier intakes cool air through the front panel and exhausts warm air out the rear panel. When mounting
amplifiers in a portable rack, make sure the rear panel is completely open for ventilation.
