The Digital Sound Field Processor (DSP) built into this unit takes advantage of Yamaha’s undisputed leadership in the field of digital audio processing to bring you a whole new world of listening experiences. Follow the instructions in this manual carefully when setting up your system, and this unit will sonically transform your room into a wide range of listening environments –movie theater, concert hall, and so on. In addition, you get incredible realism from sources encoded with Dolby Surround using the built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder. Please read this operation manual carefully and store it in a safe place for later reference. Digital Sound Field Processing What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to the sound of a live performance, but chances are you’ll still notice something missing: the acoustic environment of the live concert hall. Extensive research into the exact nature of the sonic reflections that create the ambience of a large hall has made it possible for Yamaha engineers to bring you this same sound in your own listening room, so you’ll feel all the sound of a live concert. Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated measuring equipment, have even made it possible to capture the acoustics of a variety of venues such as an actual concert hall, theater, etc. to allow you to accurately recreate one of several actual live performance environments, all in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic Surround This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel (used for dialog), and the rear surround sound channels (used for sound effects, background noise, and other ambient noises). The center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from the action on the screen while experiencing good stereo imaging. Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of pre-recorded video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable broadcasts. When you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder decodes the signal and distributes the surround-sound effects. This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital signal processing system. This system improves the stability of sound at each channel and minimizes crosstalk between channels, so that positioning of sounds around the room is more accurate compared with conventional analog signal processing systems. In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance control. This always assures you the best performance without manual adjustment. Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. “Dolby”, “AC-3”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. Dolby Pro Logic Surround + DSP Dolby Surround sound system shows its full ability in a large movie theater, because movie sounds are originally designed to be reproduced in a large movie theater using many speakers. It is difficult to create a sound environment similar to that of a movie theater in your listening room, because the room size, materials of inside walls, the number of speakers, etc. of your listening room is much different from those of a movie theater. Yamaha DSP technology made it possible to present you with nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in your listening room by compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your listening room with its original digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround sound field. 6 The combination of Dolby Pro Logic Surround and DSP is used on the sound field program “ PRO LOGIC ENHANCED”. RX-V692 only This combination is used on sound field programs “ PRO LOGIC ENHANCED”, “70 mm MOVIE THEATER” and “TV SPORTS”. CINEMA DSP The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates these programs are created by the combination of Dolby Pro Logic and YAMAHA DSP technology.  English SPEAKER SETUP SPEAKERS TO BE USED This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5 speaker configuration. The most effective speakers to use with this unit are main speakers, rear speakers and a center speaker. You may omit the center speaker. (Refer to the “4-Speaker Configuration” shown below.) The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from your present stereo system. The rear speakers are used for the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker is for the center sounds (dialog etc.) within programs encoded with Dolby Surround. The center speaker needs to be equal in power to the main speakers, although the rear speakers should not be equal. However, all the speakers should have high enough power handling to accept the maximum output of this unit. SPEAKER CONFIGURATION 5-Speaker Configuration 4-Speaker Configuration This configuration is the most effective and recommended one. In this configuration, the center speaker is necessary as well as the rear speakers. If one of the programs shown below is selected, conversations will be output from the center speaker and the ambience will be excellent. • PRO LOGIC • PRO LOGIC ENHANCED • 70 mm MOVIE THEATER RX-V692 only The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If one of the programs shown below is selected, the center sound is output from the left and the right main speakers. However, the sound effect of other programs can be the same as that of the 5-speaker configuration. • PRO LOGIC • PRO LOGIC ENHANCED • 70 mm MOVIE THEATER RX-V692 only • TV SPORTS RX-V692 only Note: Set the center channel mode to the “NORMAL” or “WIDE” position. (For details, refer to page 21.) • TV SPORTS RX-V692 only Note: Be sure to set the center channel mode to the “PHANTOM” position. (For details, refer to page 21.)

Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement. Outdoor FM antenna Outdoor AM antenna Indoor FM antenna (included) AM loop antenna (included) GND 75-ohm/300-ohm antenna adapter 75Ω UNBAL. FM ANT 75-ohm coaxial cable GND AM ANT PHONO 75-ohm/300-ohm antenna adapter 300-ohm feeder Ground Connecting the AM loop antenna 1 2 ➀ ➂ ➁ 3 Orient so that the best reception is obtained. * The AM loop antenna should be placed apart from the main unit. The antenna may be hung on a wall. * The AM loop antenna should be kept connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit. GND terminal For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the GND terminal to a good earth ground. A good earth ground is a metal stake driven into moist earth. Notes ● When connecting the indoor FM antenna, insert its connector into the FM ANT terminal firmly. ● If you need an outdoor FM antenna to improve FM reception quality, either 300-ohm feeder or coaxial cable may be used. In locations troubled by electrical interference, coaxial cable is preferable. 15  CONTROLS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS FRONT PANEL RX-V692 1 2 3 NATURAL SOUND 4 CINEMA DSP RX–V692 AV RECEIVER 5 6 7 PRO LOGIC ENHANCED 70 mm MOVIE THEATER TV SPORTS STADIUM DISCO ROCK CONCERT JAZZ CLUB CHURCH CONCERT HALL 8 9 EFFECT VOLUME l6 VCR PRESET ROOM 2 AM FM POWER MHz TAPE 2 MONITOR MEMORY AUTO TUNING SPEAKERS SPEAKERS B ROOM 2 CONTROL A A/B/C/D/E 1 2 STEREO 0 20 40 60 3 PS PTY 4 l2 8 dB ms DIGITAL NORMAL WIDEPHANTOM l00 20 DVD/LD 28 DIGITAL ENHANCED 70 mm kHz TV/DBS RT DSP PRO LOGIC VIDEO AUX TAPE (MD) MON 2CH/6CH TUNER PHONO CD 4 40 AUTO SLEEP PCM AC—3 PTY HOLD EON NEWS INFO AFFAIRS SPORT CT 5 6 7 2 60 8 0 –dB PHONES SPEAKERS BASS TONE EXTENSION BYPASS BASS 0 l TREBLE 0 l l l B A 2 2 3 ON ON OFF OFF 3 4 2 3 4 5 FM/AM 3 4 5 VIDEO AUX DELAY/CENTER CENTER /REAR/SWFR MODE DOWN TUNING UP 2 3 4 5 B CD E BALANCE 0 l l 2 3 4 5 0 A 2 MEMORY EDIT TUNING MODE TIME/LEVEL 4 L5 F 5R MAN'L/AUTO FM G AUTO/MAN'L MONO S VIDEO VIDEO H I J L MN K L AUDIO R O RX-V592 1 2 3 NATURAL SOUND 4 CINEMA DSP RX–V592 AV RECEIVER 5 6 PRO LOGIC ENHANCED CONCERT VIDEO DISCO ROCK CONCERT CONCERT HALL 7 8 9 MONO MOVIE STADIUM EFFECT VOLUME l6 VCR TV/DBS 20 DVD/LD l2 28 PRESET SLEEP ms dB STEREO POWER kHz MHz MEMORY AUTO PTY HOLD PS A/B/C/D/E 1 INFO AFFAIRS SPORT PTY RT CT EON NEWS 2 0 20 40 60 l00 8 NORMAL WIDE PHANTOM EFFECT OFF VIDEO AUX TAPE (MD) MON 2CH/6CH TUNER PHONO CD 4 40 TAPE MONITOR PRO LOGIC CONCERT MONO DISCO ROCK CONCERT VIDEO MOVIE STADIUM CONCERT HALL ENHANCED 3 4 5 6 7 2 60 8 0 –dB PHONES SPEAKERS BASS EXTENSION BASS 0 l 2 2 3 ON OFF ON OFF 16 BC E 2 3 4 4 5 0 A TREBLE 0 l l l B A 3 3 4 5 4 5 F BALANCE 0 l l 2 5 2 FM/AM DOWN TUNING UP DELAY/CENTER CENTER /REAR/SWFR MODE VIDEO AUX 2 3 3 4 MEMORY EDIT TUNING MODE TIME/LEVEL 4 L5 5R G MAN'L/AUTO FM AUTO/MAN'L MONO H IJ L MN K VIDEO L AUDIO R O  2 Standby mode indicator (Except U.S.A. and Canada models) While the power is on, pressing the SYSTEM POWER OFF key on the remote control transmitter switches the unit to the standby mode.

The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your listening room. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments. In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP program including a combined operation of the Yamaha DSP and the Dolby Pro Logic Surround. Brief Overview of Digital Sound Field Programs The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments. The data for these sound fields was recorded at actual locations using sophisticated sound field measurement equipment. Note The channel level balance between the left and right rear effect speakers may vary depending on the sound field you are listening to. This is due to the fact that most of these sound field recreations are actual acoustic environments. PROGRAM PRO LOGIC This program is used for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The application of a sophisticated digital signal processing system reduces crosstalk and directs or steers the sound source more smoothly and precisely, as compared to conventional types. PRO LOGIC ENHANCED This program is also used for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. Enhancing the “Normal” Dolby Pro Logic, the DSP technology simulates the multi-surround speaker systems of a 35 mm movie theater. This effect creates a wide surround sound field, and expands the sound stage with an improved presence image. This program is used for musical based movies, as well as drama and comedy based movies. STADIUM 30 FEATURE This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, and extraordinarily spacious feel of a large stadium. DISCO This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a very lively city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, “immediate” sound. ROCK CONCERT This program is ideally suited for rock music. You will experience a very dynamic or lively sound field. CONCERT HALL In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the main speakers, creating an expansive large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music are suited for this sound field.  English RX-V692 only PROGRAM FEATURE 70 mm MOVIE THEATER This program is effective for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The Yamaha DSP technology is ideally combined with the Dolby Pro Logic to present you incredible listening experience of the 70 mm film movie theater. This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of the newest movies. The sound field is made according to the design of the newest movie theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as much as possible. The three dimensional feeling of the sound field is emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on the screen. You can enjoy watching Sci-Fi, adventure movies, etc. with this program. TV SPORTS This program is furnished with a tight sound field in which the sound will not spread excessively on the front side, but the rear surround side produces a dynamic sound expansion. This program is the most suitable for sports programs encoded with Dolby Surround. JAZZ CLUB This is a small, cozy jazz club with a low ceiling. The sound is very close and intimate. CHURCH This program recreates the acoustic environment of a big church with a high pointed dome and columns along the sides. This interior produces very long reverberations.

For each key function, refer to the corresponding instruction in your component’s manual. 37  LEARNING NEW CONTROL FUNCTIONS (When the lid is open) This is a learning remote control transmitter. The shaded keys in the illustration shown below can be programmed to “learn” control functions from other remote control transmitters. By learning key-functions from other remote control transmitter, this unit can then be used in place of one or more other remote control transmitters, thus making operation of your various audio and video components more convenient. Some of the “learning-capable” keys are originally empty and others have already been preset with functions to control this unit and other Yamaha components. You can store new functions to them (in place of preset functions) as desired. * See page 43 for the learning method. * See page 45 for clearing a learned function (or all learned functions). Note If the memory capacity of the remote control transmitter becomes full, no further learning is possible even if some learning-capable keys are not occupied with new functions. If, for example, you store Yamaha codes only into this remote control transmitter, up to about 20 functions can be stored. Store new functions to the learnable-capable keys which are useful for you. Keys which can have three functions (1, 2, 3, 4) 1 * In the “Learning-capable” keys, the keys numbered 1–4 in the illustration at left can have three functions. This is because they have three memory areas (A, B and C). (One function per area.) You can store new functions into the area B and C, and use three functions on a key by switching the memory areas with the A/B/C switch. (Area A cannot learn a new function.)

For example, the TV key is useful for storing the function of your TV’s power switch, and the VCR key can be used for your VCR’s power switch.  English Note If a key which has a preset function learns a new function, the preset function will not be deleted, but disabled. When the learned function is cleared, the preset function is restored. (For information on clearing a learned function, refer to page 45.) About the marks shown on the remote control transmitter The marks on the remote control transmitter signify functions of keys, input sources, etc. Examples) (tape): (disc): (radio wave): Shows tape deck, VCR, etc. Shows CD player, LD player, etc. Shows tuner, TV/BS tuner, etc. These marks are helpful for storing new functions. Examples) • The area B of keys 1 is suitable for storing functions to control your VCR. • The area B of keys 3 is suitable for storing functions to control your TV/BS tuner. USING OPERATION CONTROL KEYS (When the lid is closed) When the lid of the remote control transmitter is closed, you can easily operate Yamaha components including learned functions by using the OPERATION CONTROL keys.

To use these keys, you do not have to switch the A/B/C switch. The functions which the OPERATION CONTROL keys carry out are determined by which input selector key was pressed before you used the OPERATION CONTROL keys. Note When the lid is closed, the EFFECT, MASTER VOLUME, MUTE (RX-V692 only), TV and VCR keys will function in the same way as when the lid is open. * If the MACRO switch on the side of the remote control transmitter is set to “OFF”, when the lid is closed, the SYSTEM POWER and OFF keys also will function in the same way as when the lid is open. Examples of operations controlled by using the OPERATION CONTROL keys To operate a Yamaha CD player 1. Press the “CD” input selector key. 2. Use the OPERATION CONTROL keys.

Notes • If the OPERATION CONTROL keys substitute for keys which has no function (empty), no command is carried out. According to your plan, store functions from other remote control transmitters into an empty area of those keys. (Refer to page 43 for the learning method.) 40 • While playing an audio/video unit, if you want to operate another unit by using the remote control transmitter (for example, if you want to rewind a tape on your VCR while listening to a CD), you should open the lid of the remote control transmitter and use the A/B/C switch and the corresponding keys. (If you press an input selector key with the lid closed to change the functions of the OPERATION CONTROL keys to the functions for controlling a VCR, the input of currently playing CD source is canceled.)  English MACRO OPERATIONS (When the lid is closed) Preset macro keys are originally preset with macros. If you prefer, however, you can change the contents of a macro key by storing a desired series of functions on it. You can store up to seven functions onto a macro key. (See page 44 for the learning method.) “Macro” is a command which defines a sequence of several operations. The keys shown in the illustrations below (as preset macro keys) are also preset with macros, in addition to individual functions. Each macro key is preset so that simply pressing it alone will carry out several functions of other keys on this remote control transmitter sequentially. (To know what key functions are sequentially carried out by pressing each preset macro key, see the next page.) Macros can be used only when the lid is closed and the MACRO switch is set to “SLOW” or “QUICK”. (If “OFF” is selected, no macro will function even if the lid is closed.) Setting the MACRO switch OFF: In this position, no macro will function even if the lid of remote control transmitter is closed. QUICK: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each command is transmitted at 0.5 second intervals. SLOW: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each command is transmitted at 3 second intervals.

For example, when you press the macro key, if the power of TV, VCR, etc. is already on, the power will be turned off even though you may not want it to do so. • 42 – OFF • • • Once you press a macro key, this unit will not receive the command of another key (even if it is pressed) until this unit finishes carrying out all commands of the macro key. Take notice of this especially when the MACRO switch is in the “SLOW” position. Once you press a macro key, you must keep the remote control transmitter directed at the main unit’s remote control sensor until the remote control transmitter finishes transmitting all command signals of the macro key. You can use the OPERATION CONTROL keys also while using the macro functions.  English LEARNING A NEW FUNCTION 1 Place this remote control transmitter and the other remote control transmitter so that they face each other. 5 Press and hold the key (on the other remote control transmitter) which has the function you want to store.

LEARN MACRO Notes ● Newly learned functions will replace previously learned functions. ● If there is no more room in the memory area for a function to be learned, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator will flash rapidly. In this case, even if some keys are not occupied with functions from other remote control transmitters, no further learning is possible. ● If the lid is closed while learning and about 5 seconds pass, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode before you began learning operations is restored. If this occurs, restart from step 2. However, if the lid is opened within 5 seconds, the mode before the lid was closed is restored. ● There may occasionally be instances in which, due to the signal-coding and modulation employed by the other remote control transmitter, this remote control transmitter will not be able to “learn” its signals. 43  MAKING A NEW MACRO A new macro can be programmed onto any preset macro key in place of preset functions. (See page 41 to know what keys are preset macro keys.) You can make as many as 13 new macro keys. A macro key can learn as many as seven functions of other keys.

If it cannot be corrected, or if the fault is not listed in the SYMPTOM column, disconnect the power cord and contact your authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center for help. SYMPTOM Amplifier REMEDY Power cord is not plugged in or is not completely inserted. Firmly plug in the power cord. The IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch on the rear panel is not set to the upper or the lower end exactly. Set the switch to the upper or the lower end exactly. No sound or no picture. Incorrect output cord connections. Connect the cords properly. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. Appropriate input source is not selected. Select an appropriate input source with the input selector buttons. The SPEAKERS switches are not set properly. Set the SPEAKERS switch which corresponds to the speakers to be used to the ON position. Speaker connections are not secure. Secure the connections. The protection circuit has been activated because of short circuit etc. Turning the unit off and then on will reset the protection circuit. The SLEEP timer has functioned. Cancel the SLEEP timer function. Incorrect setting of the BALANCE control. Adjust it to the appropriate position. Incorrect cord connections. Connect the cords properly. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. Incorrect cord connections. Firmly connect the audio plugs. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. No connection from the turntable to the GND terminal. Make the GND connection between the turntable and this unit. The volume level is low while playing a record. The record is being played on a turntable with an MC cartridge. The player should be connected to the unit through the MC head amplifier. The volume level cannot be increased, or sound is distorted. The power to the component connected to the REC OUT terminals of this unit is off. Turn the power to the component on. No sound from the rear speakers. The sound output level to the rear speakers is set to 0. Raise the sound output level to the rear speakers. The monaural sound source is played in DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED mode. Select another program suitable for the monaural sound source. The sound output level to the center speaker is set to 0. Raise the sound output level to the center speaker. The center channel mode is in PHANTOM mode. Select NORMAL or WIDE. Incorrect sound field program selection. Select the appropriate program. FM stereo reception is noisy. Because of the characteristics of FM stereo broadcasts, this is limited to cases where the transmitter is too far away or the antenna input is poor. Check the antenna connections. Try using a high quality directional FM antenna. Set the TUNING MODE button to the manual tuning mode. There is distortion and clear reception cannot be obtained even with a good FM antenna. There is multipath interference. Adjust antenna placement to eliminate multipath interference. A desired station cannot be tuned in with the automatic tuning method. The station is too weak. Use the manual tuning method. Use a high quality directional FM antenna. Previously preset stations can no longer be tuned in. This unit has been unplugged for a long period. Repeat the presetting procedure. A desired station cannot be tuned in with the automatic tuning method. Weak signal or loose antenna connections. Tighten the AM loop antenna connections and rotate it for best reception. There are continuous crackling and hissing noises. Noises will result from ligtning, fluorescent lamps, motors, thermostats and other electrical equipment. Use an outdoor antenna and a ground wire. This will help somewhat but it is difficult to eliminate all noise. There are buzzing and whining noises (especially in the evening). A television set is being used nearby. Relocate this unit away from the TV. The remote control transmitter does not work. Direct sunlight or lighting (of an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.) is striking the remote control sensor of the main unit. Change the position of the main unit. The batteries of this remote control transmitter are too weak. Replace the batteries with new ones. The power to this unit is off. Turn the power to this unit on. The sound suddenly goes off. Only one side speaker outputs the sound. Sound “hums”. No sound from the center speaker. FM CAUSE The unit fails to turn on when the POWER switch is pressed, or turns off suddenly soon after the power is turned on. Others Remote control transmitter AM Use the manual tuning method. 46 The sound is degraded when listening with the headphones connected to the compact disc player or cassette deck that are connected with this unit.  AUDIO SECTION Minimum RMS Output Power per Channel Main L, R 8 ohms, 20 Hz to 20 kHz, 0.04% THD <RX-V692> [U.S.A. and Canada models] ..............................................80W
