PREPARATIONS Installation En 11
This unit reflects sound beams off of walls to create the surround sound effect. The position of this unit in relation to both the listening position and walls is important to achieving the
desired surround sound effects. When installing this unit on a rack behind which there is limited space, for example, it may be easier to connect external devices to this unit first. This
will depend upon the installation location. See “Connections” (p. 24) for more information.
Wireless connections
The center unit and subwoofer communicate wirelessly. Subwoofer performance may be affected if the subwoofer is placed on a metal rack, or if there is a metal plate between the
subwoofer and the center unit. Use a wired connection to connect the subwoofer to the center unit if sounds are interrupted due to the installation condition (p. 29).
Installation
Notes
Be sure to install this unit on a large, stable stand where it does not fall subject to vibrations, such as from an earthquake, and where it is out of the reach of children.
The subwoofer speakers are not magnetically shielded. Do not install hard disk drives or similar devices near the subwoofer.
Do not stack the center unit and subwoofer directly on top of other playback devices, or vice versa. Heat and vibrations may result in damage or malfunction.
Recommended place for installation
Center unit
Subwoofer
* Use the TV Remote Repeater function if the center unit
obstructs the remote control sensor on the TV (p. 15).
If the center unit cannot be installed on a TV stand
because the stand is too high, the height of the center
unit can be adjusted (p. 16).
To prevent sound reflecting off of walls, angle the
subwoofer slightly toward the center of the room.
When installing the subwoofer on a rack, be sure
the rack is strong enough to support the subwoofer
and that it leaves sufficient space for heat
discharge.
The subwoofer can also be placed on its side
(p. 18).

walls.
Place the center unit on a TV stand in front of the TV*.
This unit can be mounted on a wall using the optional
Wall Mount Bracket SPM-K20 (p. 19).
The listening position (such as sofa, etc.) should be
located at the front of the center unit.
The distance between the listening position and the
center unit should be more than 1.8 m (6 ft).
To achieve desired surround sound effects, be
sure that obstacles such as furniture may not
obstruct the path of sound beams (p. 12).
PREPARATIONS Installation En 12

PREPARATIONS Installation En 14
Example for installing the unit in living room
As sound beams normally pass through tables, tables are not obstacles. And a
cupboard installed facing the wall reflects sounds.
In a case of the listening room as shown in the illustration below, adjusting the position
of the right channel after AUTO SETUP (p. 32) enables to achieve more desired
surround sound effects (p. 55).

APPENDIX Basic Knowledge of Surround Sound En 76
APPENDIX
What is Surround Sound?
Surround sound offers the sense of being surrounded by sounds, an
experience common in concert halls and movie theaters. This can be
achieved by surrounding the audience with numerous speakers from
which sound is output uniformly in all directions. This “surround
sound” technology immerses the listener in sound with speakers
positioned not only in front of the listener, but also behind and to the
sides of the listener, making him or her feel as if they are actually in
the situation.
For precise directional control and quality of sound reproduction,
sounds must be split into separate audio channels for output to each
speaker. Surround sound systems for regular home use (7.1-channel
speaker systems) produce surround sound using seven speakers
and a subwoofer, as shown below:
As explained above, sounds can be reproduced for a great sense of
presence by installing multiple speakers. However, this can be
difficult to do in a living room. This unit utilizes “digital sound
projector” technology to provide a realistic and engaging surround
sound experience using only a slim center unit and subwoofer.
What is a Digital Sound Projector?
A digital sound projector separately controls compact speakers
installed in orderly rows, so that optimized audio signals are output
from each speaker and synthesized as highly focused sounds
(sound beams).
When these focused sounds hit a hard wall, they are reflected off of
the wall. A digital sound projector outputs sound beams from five
channels, including front (left/right), center, and surround (left/right)
channels, by reflecting these beams off of walls so that sounds reach
the listener from the appropriate direction. It features a technology
that enables true surround sound without requiring the installation of
speakers in front of, or behind, the listener.
By combining front and surround channel signals, it can also create
two new channels, for a total of seven, so that all channels work
together more closely for a better surround sound experience.
Yamaha’s Audio Technologies
This unit features many more functions based on Yamaha’s superior
audio technologies.
This technology enhances and extends bass and treble, which tend
to be weak in digitally compressed formats such as MP3 used with
portable digital audio players and computers. This makes
compressed audio sound more musically dynamic.
This technology enables precise digital recreation of actual acoustic
environments found in well-known concert halls and movie theaters.
This is achieved using Yamaha’s exclusive sound field programs,
which are based on data measured in various sound fields, and with
which the amplitude, depth, and volume of sounds have been
adjusted.

APPENDIX Glossary En 77
Sampling Frequency and Bit Depth
These are values that represent the amount of information used to
convert analog signals to digital signals. They may be expressed as
48kHz/24bit, for example.
Sampling Frequency
This defines the number of samples per second (sampling a finite
set of discrete values in an analog signal). The higher the
sampling rate, the broader the range of frequencies that can be
played back.
Bit Depth
This defines the amplitude value of sounds when quantifying
analog signals as finite values. The higher the bit depth, the
deeper sounds are reproduced.
Deep Color
This is a video technology supported by the HDMI standard. It
processes RGB or YCbCr signals at bit depths of 10, 12, or 16 bits
per color, whereas conventional formats utilize only 8-bit processing,
enabling reproduction of more colors. Its gamut is comprised of a
billion or more colors, while the gamuts of conventional formats are
comprised of only millions of colors or less. This broader gamut
results in more precise reproduction of colors and greater detail in
darker portions.
Dolby Digital
This is a compressed audio format for 5.1 channels. It was
developed by Dolby Laboratories, and is widely used with DVD
discs.
Dolby Digital EX
This technology enables 6.1-channel playback for sources encoded
in the Dolby Digital EX format. It takes the Dolby Digital 5.1-channel
setup one step further with an additional back surround channel.
Dolby Digital Plus
This is a compressed audio format for 7.1 channels developed by
Dolby Laboratories. It is fully compatible with Dolby Digital and is
available for playback on Dolby Digital-enabled audio systems. It is
widely used with Blu-ray Discs.
Dolby Pro Logic II
This technology converts audio signal recorded in 2 channels to
5-channel signal. There are three modes available: “Music mode” for
stereo music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources, and “Game
mode” for game sources.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx
This technology converts not only audio recorded in 2 channels, but
also audio signal recorded in multiple channels to discrete 7-channel
sound. There are three modes available: “Music mode” for music
sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources and “Game mode” for
game sources.
Dolby TrueHD
This advanced lossless audio technology was developed by Dolby
Laboratories for high-definition disc-based media to deliver sounds
that are identical, bit for bit, to studio masters for a great home
theater experience. It delivers up to 8 discrete channels of 24-bit/
96-kHz (up to 6 discrete channels of 24-bit/192 kHz) audio
simultaneously, and is widely used with Blu-ray Discs.
DTS Digital Surround
This is a compressed audio format for 5.1 channels developed by
DTS. It is widely used with DVD discs.
DTS Express
This is a compressed audio format for 5.1 channels. It provides a
higher compression ratio than the DTS Digital Surround audio format,
and was developed specifically for network streaming and Blu-ray
Disc secondary audio.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
This is a compressed audio format for 24-bit/96-kHz superior sound
quality with 7.1 channels developed by DTS. It is fully compatible
with DTS Digital Surround, and is widely used with Blu-ray Discs.
DTS-HD Master Audio
This advanced lossless audio technology was developed by DTS for
high-definition disc-based media to deliver sounds identical, bit for
bit, to studio masters for a great home theater experience. It delivers
up to 8 discrete channels at 24-bit/96 kHz (up to 6 discrete channels
at 24-bit/192 kHz) audio simultaneously, and is widely used with
Blu-ray Discs.
DTS Neo:6
This technology enables discrete 6-channel playback from 2-channel
sources. There are two modes available: “Music mode” for music
sources and “Cinema mode” for movie sources. It provides a channel
split effect similar to sources recorded as discrete surround sound.
HDMI
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a digital audio/video
interface that has become an industry standard around the world. It
is capable of transmitting both digital video and audio signals intact
via a single cable. It is also compliant with the High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection (HDCP) standard. See http://www.hdmi.org for
more information.
Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)
This technology records analog audio signals in digital form,
converts analog audio signals to digital audio signals, and transmits
analog audio signals in digital form. It is the underlying technology
for all digital audio signal systems, and is widely used with CDs,
Blu-ray Discs, and many other types of media as a uncompressed
audio format known as Linear PCM.
x.v.Color
This is a color space supported by HDMI. It has become an
international standard for video and offers a broader gamut than
does the sRGB standard for expression of colors never before
possible. It expands the color space while ensuring compatibility
with the sRGB standard for more natural and vivid images.

2.4 GHz frequency band, a band which can be used without a
license.
Handling Bluetooth communications
The 2.4 GHz band used by Bluetooth compatible devices is a radio
band shared by many types of equipment. While Bluetooth
compatible devices use a technology minimizing the influence of
other components using the same radio band, such influence may
reduce the speed or distance of communications and in some
cases interrupt communications.
The speed of signal transfer and the distance at which
communications is possible differs according to the distance
between the communicating devices, the presence of obstacles,
radio wave conditions and type of equipment.
Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections between this
