IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Caution-i En

• Explanation of Graphical Symbols

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an

equilateral triangle, is intended to alert you to the

presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within

the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient

magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to

persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle

is intended to alert you to the presence of important

operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in

the literature accompanying the appliance.

1 Read Instructions – All the safety and operating instructions

should be read before the product is operated.

2 Retain Instructions – The safety and operating instructions

should be retained for future reference.

for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or

laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool;

and the like.

8 Accessories – Do not place this product on an unstable cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall,

causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious

damage to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod,

bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold

with the product. Any mounting of the product should

follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a

mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

9 A product and cart combination should be moved with care.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may

cause the product and cart combination to

overturn.

10 Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided

for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the

product and to protect it from overheating, and these

openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings

should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed,

sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should not

be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack

unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s

instructions have been adhered to.

11 Power Sources – This product should be operated only from

the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If

you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,

consult your product dealer or local power company. For

products intended to operate from battery power, or other

sources, refer to the operating instructions.

12 Grounding or Polarization – This product may be equipped

with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having

one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the

power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you

are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try

reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact

your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not

defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

13 Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched

by items placed upon or against them, paying particular

attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the

point where they exit from the product.

as opening or removing covers may expose you to

dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to

qualified service personnel.

19 Damage Requiring Service – Unplug this product from the

wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel

under the following conditions:

a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,

b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

product,

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Yamaha and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer

Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your

equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound

come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or

distortion – and, most importantly, without affecting your

sensitive hearing.

Since hearing damage from loud sounds is often

undetectable until it is too late, Yamaha and the

Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer

Electronics Group recommend you to avoid

prolonged exposure from excessive volume levels.

Getting started

Caution

The VOLTAGE SELECTOR on the rear panel of this

unit must be set for your local voltage BEFORE

Connections

The speaker layout below shows the speaker setting we recommend. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP and multi-

channel audio sources.

Front left and right speakers (FL and FR)

The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus effect sounds. Place these speakers at an equal distance from the

ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the same.

Center speaker (C)

The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it is not practical to use a

center speaker, you can do without it. Best results, however, are obtained with the full system.

Surround left and right speakers (SL and SR)

The surround speakers are used for effect and surround sounds.

Surround back left and right speakers (SBL and SBR)

The surround back speakers supplement the surround speakers and provide more realistic front-to-back transitions.

Subwoofer (SW)

The use of a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, such as the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is

effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels, but also for high fidelity sound reproduction

of the LFE (low-frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and DTS sources. The position of the subwoofer is

not so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the front

speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.

PREPARATION

Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty,

this unit cannot reproduce the input sources accurately.

Connecting speakers

Caution

• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the AC power plug is disconnected from the AC wall outlet.

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage

this unit and/or the speakers. If the speaker wires are short-circuited, “CHECK SP WIRES” appears in the front

panel display when you turn on this unit.

• Use the magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speaker still creates interference with the monitor, place the

speakers away from the monitor.

• If you are to use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set “SP IMP.” to “6Ω MIN” before using this unit. For details about the

speaker impedance setting, see page 23.

■ Before connecting to the SPEAKERS

terminal

A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables

running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped

differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridges.

Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red)

terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain

cable to the “–” (black) terminals.

Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation

from the end of each speaker cable and then

twist the bare wires of the cable together to

prevent short circuits.

■ Connecting to the FRONT A terminals

1 Loosen the knob.

2 Insert the bare end of the speaker wire into

the hole on the terminal.

3 Tighten the knob to secure the wire.

Connecting the banana plug

(except Europe, Russia, Korea, and Asia models)

The banana plug is a single-pole electrical connector

widely used to terminate speaker cables. First, tighten the

knob and then insert the banana plug connector into the

end of the corresponding terminal.

■ Using bi-amplification connections

This unit allows you to make bi-amplification connections

to one speaker system. Check if your speakers support bi-

amplification.

To make the bi-amplification connections, use the FRONT

and SURROUND BACK terminals as shown below. To

activate the bi-amplification connections, set “BI-AMP”

to “ON” in “Advanced setup” (see page 82).

• When you make the conventional connection, make sure that

the shorting bars are put into the terminals appropriately. Refer

to the instruction manuals of the speakers for details.

• When you use bi-amplification connections, you can not use

surround back speakers.

Optimizing the speaker setting for your listening room

26 En

This unit employs the YPAO (Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer) technology which lets you avoid

troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieves highly accurate sound adjustments automatically. The supplied

optimizer microphone collects and this unit analyzes the sound your speakers produce in your actual listening

environment.

• Be advised that it is normal for loud test tones to be output

during the “AUTO SETUP” procedure.

• To achieve the best results, make sure the room is as quiet as

possible while the “AUTO SETUP” procedure is in progress. If

there is too much ambient noise, the results may not be

satisfactory.

You can run “AUTO SETUP” using the system menu that appears

in the OSD or in the front panel display. This manual uses the

OSD illustrations to explain the “AUTO SETUP” procedure.

1 Make sure of the following check points.

Before starting the automatic setup, check the following

check points.

❏ Speakers are connected appropriately.

❏ Headphones are disconnected from this unit.

❏ This unit and the video monitor are turned on.

❏ This unit is selected as the video input source of

the video monitor.

❏ The connected subwoofer is turned on and the

volume level is set to about half way (or slightly

less).

❏ The crossover frequency controls of the

connected subwoofer is set to the maximum.

❏ FRONT A speakers are selected as the front

speaker system (see page 35).

❏ The room is sufficiently quiet.

2 Connect the supplied optimizer microphone

to the OPTIMIZER MIC jack on the front

panel.

The following display appears in the OSD.

3 Place the optimizer microphone at your

normal listening position on a flat level

surface with the microphone heading

upward.

It is recommended that you use a tripod (etc.) to affix the

optimizer microphone at the same height as your ears would be

when you are seated in your listening position. You can use the

attached screw of a tripod (etc.) to fix the optimizer microphone

to the tripod (etc.).

OPERATION

You can connect a Yamaha Bluetooth adapter (such as YBA-10, sold separately) to the DOCK terminal of this unit and

enjoy the music contents stored in your Bluetooth component (such as a portable music player) without wiring between

this unit and the Bluetooth component. You need to perform “pairing” the connected Bluetooth adapter and your

Bluetooth component in advance.

Pairing must be performed when using a Bluetooth

component with the Bluetooth adapter connected to this

unit for the first time or if the pairing data has been

deleted. “Pairing” refers to the operation of registering a

Bluetooth component for Bluetooth communications.

• You only need the pairing operation for the first time that you

use the Bluetooth component with the Bluetooth adapter.

• Pairing requires operations on this unit and on the other

component with which Bluetooth communications are to be

established. If necessary, refer to the other component’s

operating instructions.

There are two pairing methods: pairing by using “START

PAIRING” in “SET MENU” and quick pairing.

seconds to start pairing.

Once the Bluetooth adapter starts pairing,

“Searching...” appears for a moment. While the

Bluetooth adapter is in the pairing mode, DOCK

indicator flashes in the front panel display.

To cancel the pairing, press

EBAND

(or

BAND) again.

If the Bluetooth adapter is not connected to the DOCK

terminal of this unit, “No BT adapter” appears in the front

panel display.

4 Check that the Bluetooth component detects

the Bluetooth adapter.

If the Bluetooth component detects the Bluetooth

adapter, “YBA-10 YAMAHA” (example) appears in

the Bluetooth device list.

5 Select the Bluetooth adapter in the Bluetooth

device list and then enter the pass key

“0000” on the Bluetooth component.

When the pairing procedure is successful,

“Completed” appears in the front panel display.

The Yamaha Bluetooth adapter can be paired with up to eight

Bluetooth components. When pairing is conducted successfully

with a ninth component and the pairing data is registered, the

pairing data for the least recently used other component is

cleared.

1 Press

INPUT

l / h repeatedly (or press

V-AUX/DOCK) to select “V-AUX” as the

input source.

2 Start playback of your Bluetooth component.

When the connected Bluetooth adapter detects the

Bluetooth component, “BT connected” and the

DOCK indicator appears in the front panel display.

• When you press

ENTER, the connected Bluetooth adapter

searches and connect to the last connected Bluetooth

component. If the Bluetooth adapter cannot find the Bluetooth

component, “Not found” appears in the front panel display.

OPERATION

This unit allows you to configure a multi-zone audio system. The Zone 2 feature allows you to set this unit to reproduce

separate input sources in the main zone and the second zone (Zone 2). You can control this unit from the second zone

using the supplied remote control.

You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-zone functions of this unit:

• An infrared signal receiver in the second zone.

• An infrared signal emitter in the main zone. This emitter transmits the infrared signals from the remote control via the

infrared signal receiver in the second zone to a CD player or a DVD player, etc. in the main zone.

• An amplifier and speakers in the second zone.

• Since there are many possible ways to connect and use this unit in a multi-zone configuration, we recommend that you consult with

your nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center about the Zone 2 connections that best meet your requirements.

• Some Yamaha models are able to connect directly to the REMOTE jacks of this unit. If you own these products, you may not need to

use an infrared signal emitter. Up to 6 Yamaha components can be connected as shown below.

■ Using the external amplifier

Connect the amplifier/receiver in the second zone and other components to this unit as follows.

To avoid unexpected noise, DO NOT USE the Zone 2 feature with CDs encoded in DTS.

Using multi-zone configuration

Only analog signals are sent to the second zone. Any source you want to listen to in the second zone must be

connected to the analog AUDIO IN jacks of this unit.

■ Bi-amplification connection

A bi-amplification connection uses two amplifiers for a

speaker. One amplifier is connected to the woofer section

of a loudspeaker while the other is connected to the

combined mid and tweeter section. With this arrangement

each amplifier operates over a restricted frequency range.

This restricted range presents each amplifier with a much

simpler job and each amplifier is less likely to influence

the sound in some way. The internal crossover of the

speaker consists of a LPF (low pass filter) and a HPF (high

pass filter). As its name implies, the LPF passes

frequencies below a cutoff and rejects frequencies above

the cutoff frequency. Likewise, the HPF passes

frequencies above its cutoff.

■ CINEMA DSP

Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were

originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect

is best felt in a theater having many speakers designed for

acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room

size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can

differ so widely, it is inevitable that there are differences in

the sound heard. Based on a wealth of actually measured

data, Yamaha CINEMA DSP uses Yamaha original sound

field technology to combine Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby

Digital and DTS systems to provide the audiovisual

experience of a movie theater in the listening room of your

own home.

■ Component video signal

With the component video signal system, the video signal

is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the P

and PR signals for the chrominance. Color can be

reproduced more faithfully with this system because each

of these signals is independent. The component signal is

also called the “color difference signal” because the

luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal. A

monitor with component input jacks is required in order to

output component signals.

■ Composite video signal

With the composite video signal system, the video signal

is composed of three basic elements of a video picture:

color, brightness and synchronization data. A composite

video jack on a video component transmits these three

elements combined.

■ Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives

you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3

front channels (front L/R and center), and 2 surround

stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range audio

channels. With an additional channel especially for bass

effects, called LFE (Low Frequency Effect), the system

has a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is counted as 0.1

channel). By using 2-channel stereo for the surround

speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and

surround sound environment are possible than with Dolby

Surround. The wide dynamic range from maximum to

minimum volume reproduced by the 5 full-range channels

and the precise sound orientation generated using digital

sound processing provide listeners with unprecedented

excitement and realism. With this unit, any sound

environment from monaural up to a 5.1-channel

configuration can be freely selected for your enjoyment.

■ Dolby Digital EX

Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output

channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a

matrix decoder that derives 3 surround channels from the

2 in the original recording. For the best results, Dolby

Digital EX should be used with movie sound tracks

recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this

additional channel, you can experience more dynamic and

realistic moving sound especially with scenes with

“fly-over” and “fly-around” effects.

■ Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II is an improved technique used to

decode vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround sources.

This new technology enables a discrete 5-channel

playback with 2 front left and right channels, 1 center

channel, and 2 surround left and right channels instead of

only 1 surround channel for conventional Pro Logic

technology. There are three modes available: “Music

mode” for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie

sources and “Game mode” for game sources.

■ Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a new technology enabling discrete

multi-channel playback from 2-channel or multi-channel

sources. There are three modes available: “Music mode”

for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources (for

2-channel sources only) and “Game mode” for game

sources.

ADDITIONAL

INFORMATION

■ Dolby Surround

Dolby Surround uses a 4-channel analog recording system

to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front

left and right channels (stereo), a center channel for dialog

(monaural), and a surround channel for special sound

effects (monaural). The surround channel reproduces

sound within a narrow frequency range. Dolby Surround is

widely used with nearly all video tapes and laser discs,

and in many TV and cable broadcasts as well. The Dolby

Pro Logic decoder built into this unit employs a digital

signal processing system that automatically stabilizes the

volume on each channel to enhance moving sound effects

and directionality.

■ DTS 96/24

DTS 96/24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality

for multi-channel sound on DVD video, and is fully

backward-compatible with all DTS decoders. “96” refers

to a 96 kHz sampling rate compared to the typical 48 kHz

sampling rate. “24” refers to 24-bit word length. DTS 96/

24 offers sound quality transparent to the original 96/24

master, and 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-

motion video for music programs and motion picture

soundtracks on DVD video.

■ DTS Digital Surround

DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog

soundtracks of movies with a 6.1-channel digital sound

track, and is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie

theaters around the world. DTS, Inc. has developed a

home theater system so that you can enjoy the depth of

sound and natural spatial representation of DTS digital

surround in your home. This system produces practically

distortion-free 6.1-channel sound (technically, front left

and right, center, surround left and right, and LFE 0.1

(subwoofer) channels for a total of 5.1 channels). This unit

incorporates a DTS-ES decoder that enables 6.1-channel

reproduction by adding the surround back channel to the

existing 5.1-channel format.

■ HDMI

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first

industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video

interface. Providing an interface between any source (such

as a set-top box or AV receiver) and an audio/video

monitor (such as a digital television), HDMI supports

standard, enhanced or high-definition video as well as

multi-channel digital audio using a single cable. HDMI

transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-

channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to

accommodate future enhancements and requirements.

When used in combination with HDCP (High-bandwidth

Digital Content Protection), HDMI provides a secure

audio/video interface that meets the security requirements

of content providers and system operators. For further

information on HDMI, visit the HDMI website at

“http://www.hdmi.org/”.

■ LFE 0.1 channel

This channel reproduces low-frequency signals. The

frequency range of this channel is from 20 Hz to 120 Hz.

This channel is counted as 0.1 because it only enforces a

low-frequency range compared to the full-range

reproduced by the other 5/6 channels in Dolby Digital or

DTS 5.1/6.1-channel systems.

■ Neo:6

Neo:6 decodes the conventional 2-channel sources for 6-

channel playback by the specific decoder. It enables

playback with the full-range channels with higher

separation just like digital discrete signal playback. There

are two modes available: “Music mode” for music sources

and “Cinema mode” for movie sources.

■ Neural Surround

Neural Surround

™

represents the latest advancement in

surround technology and has been adopted by XM

Satellite Radio for digital radio broadcast of surround

recordings and live events in surround sound. Neural

Surround

™

employs psychoacoustic frequency domain

processing which allows delivery of a more detailed sound

stage with superior channel separation and localization of

audio elements. System playback is scalable from 5.1 to

7.1 multi-channel surround playback.

■ PCM (Linear PCM)

Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog

audio signal is digitized, recorded and transmitted without

using any compression. This is used as a method of

recording CDs and DVD audio. The PCM system uses a

technique for sampling the size of the analog signal per

very small unit of time. Standing for “Pulse Code

Modulation”, the analog signal is encoded as pulses and

then modulated for recording.

■ Sampling frequency and number of

quantized bits

When digitizing an analog audio signal, the number of

times the signal is sampled per second is called the

sampling frequency, while the degree of fineness when

converting the sound level into a numeric value is called

the number of quantized bits. The range of rates that can

be played back is determined based on the sampling rate,

while the dynamic range representing the sound level

difference is determined by the number of quantized bits.

In principle, the higher the sampling frequency, the wider

the range of frequencies that can be played back, and the

higher the number of quantized bits, the more finely the

sound level can be reproduced.

■ SILENT CINEMA

Yamaha has developed a natural, realistic sound effect

DSP algorithm for headphones. Parameters for

headphones have been set for each sound field so that

accurate representations of all the sound field programs

can be enjoyed on headphones.

■ S-video signal

With the S-video signal system, the video signal normally

transmitted using a pin cable is separated and transmitted

as the Y signal for the luminance and the C signal for the

chrominance through the S-video cable. Using the S

VIDEO jack eliminates video signal transmission loss and

allows recording and playback of even more beautiful

images.

■ Virtual CINEMA DSP

Yamaha has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm

that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field surround effects

even without any surround speakers by using virtual

surround speakers. It is even possible to enjoy Virtual

CINEMA DSP using a minimal two-speaker system that

does not include a center speaker.
