Getting Started

Checking the Package Contents

Check your package to make sure it has the following items.

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

Insert the batteries in the correct direction by aligning the + and – marks on the batteries with the polarity illustrations (+ and –) inside the

battery compartment.

Change the batteries periodically. Do not use old batteries together with new ones.

Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline and manganese batteries) together. Read the packaging carefully as these different

types of batteries may have the same shape and color.

■About changing batteries

As the batteries wear out, the operating range of the remote control decreases and

the TRANSMIT indicator does not flash or its light becomes dim. When you

notice any of these conditions, change all of the batteries.

Notes:

• If the remote control is without batteries for more than 20 minutes, or if worn out

batteries remain in the unit, the contents of the memory may be cleared.

If the memory is cleared, insert new batteries and reprogram any functions that may have

been cleared.

• After you insert new batteries, be sure to push RESET in the battery compartment using

a ball point pen or similar object before using the remote control. (This does not clear the

contents of the memory.)

Using the Remote Control

The remote control transmits a directional infrared beam. Be sure to aim the remote control directly at the remote control sensor on the main

unit to operate. When the sensor is covered or there is a large object between the remote control and the main unit, the sensor cannot receive

signals. The sensor may not be able to receive signals properly when it is exposed to direct sunlight or a strong artificial light (such as a

fluorescent or strobe light). In this case, change the direction of the light or reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting.

■About handling the remote control

Handle the remote control with care.

Do not spill water or other liquids on the remote control.

Do not drop the remote control.

Do not leave or store the remote control in the following types of conditions:

• high humidity or temperature such as near a heater, stove or bath; or

• dusty places; or

• in places subject to extremely low temperatures.

Speaker System Configurations

The most complete speaker configuration consists of eight speakers: the left and right Main speakers, a Center speaker, the left and right Rear

speakers, the left and right Front Effect speakers, and a Rear Center speaker. If you do not use eight speakers, you can direct the signals for

speakers that are not in your system to other speakers in your configuration. A Subwoofer can be used with any of these configurations to

produce a fuller sound.

■Eight or Seven Speaker Configuration

–Full Cinema DSP–

When you reproduce feature film software, this configuration fully expresses the

powerful and realistic sound qualities of 70 mm multitrack audio. The dialogue is

positioned as if it were coming from directly on the screen, the sound effect is

positioned slightly behind the screen, and the soundtrack music is positioned even

further behind the screen to express the width and depth of the overall presentation.

This configuration makes the most of this unit’s capability.

The Rear Center speaker is useful for playback of 6-channel Digital Surround.

■Six Speaker Configuration –Hi Fi DSP–

This configuration is used the most for audio playback with HiFi DSP. It does not

position the dialogue sound as well as a seven or eight speaker configuration.

However, it creates a dynamic DSP (Digital Sound Field Processor) sound field

which adds depth to the sound.

For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to

“NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE”.

■Five Speaker Configuration –Standard 5.1 Channel–

This configuration does not express the height of the sound field as well as the

seven or eight speaker configuration. However, it positions the dialogue sound as

coming directly from the screen.

For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to

“NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE”.

■Four Speaker Configuration

–Minimum Requirement–

In this configuration, the Center speaker signals and Front Effect speaker signals

are directed to the left and right Main speakers.

For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to

“NONE,” item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to “NONE,” and item 1D. REAR CT SP to

“NONE”.

Hookups

Connecting Audio Components

Before you connect any components, disconnect the power supply to all the components you plan to connect including this unit and

determine which jacks are for the left and right channels and for input and output.

When you connect other YAMAHA audio component (such as a CD player or changer, MD deck, or tape deck), connect to terminals with

the same number labels. Yamaha applies this labelling system to all its products.

In the hookup illustrations on the following pages:

■Connecting to digital jacks

This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You can use the digital jacks

to input PCM, DTS, and Dolby Digital bitstreams. When you connect components to both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks (for CD and

CABLE) priority is given to the input signals from the COAXIAL jack. All digital input jacks are acceptable for 96 kHz/24 bit digital

signals.

■About the dust protection cap

Pull out the cap from the optical jack before you connect the fiber optic cable. Do

not discard the cap. When you are not using the optical jack, be sure to put the cap

back in place. This cap protects the jack from dust.

The OPTICAL jacks on this unit conform to the EIA standard. If you use a fiber

optic cable that does not conform to this standard, this unit may not function

properly.

■Connecting a turntable

These jacks are for connecting a turntable with an MM or high output MC

cartridge. If you have a turntable with a low output MC cartridge, use an inline

boosting transformer or MC-head amplifier when connecting to these jacks.

The GND terminal does not electrically ground the turntable. It simply reduces

noise in the signal. In some cases, you may hear less noise if you do not connect to

the GND terminal.

■Connecting a CD player

• The COAXIAL CD and OPTICAL CD jacks are available for a CD player

which has coaxial or optical digital outputs.

• When you connect a CD player to both the COAXIAL CD and OPTICAL CD

jacks, priority is given to the input signals from the COAXIAL CD jack.

■Connecting an MD or DAT deck

• When you connect a recorder to this unit, keep the deck’s power on while using

this unit. If the power is off, this unit may distort the sound from other

component.

• When you record from source component connected to this unit while this unit’s

power is off, the recorded sound may be distorted. To avoid this problem, turn

on this unit.

• When you connect a CD recorder to both the analog and digital input and output

jacks, priority is given to the digital signals.

Hookups

Connecting Video Components

Before you connect any components, disconnect the power supply to all the components you plan to connect including this unit and

determine which jacks are for the left and right channels and for input and output. After you finish all hookups, check them again to make

sure they are correct.

■About the video jacks

There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the VIDEO jacks are the conventional composite video signals. Video

signals input through the S VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals. The S-video signals achieve high

quality color reproduction.

Video signals input through the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (P

B/CB, PR/CR) video

signals. The jacks are also separated into three for each signal. The labels of the component video jacks may be different depending on the

component (e.g. Y, C

B, CR / Y, PB, PR / Y, B-Y, R-Y/ etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction.

If your video component has an S-video output or component video output, you can

connect it to this unit. Connect the S-video signal output jack on your video

component to the S-VIDEO jack or connect the component signal output jacks on

your video component to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

Notes:

• Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input through the composite video,

S-video, and component jacks are output through the corresponding composite video, S-

Connecting Speakers

This section explains how to connect speakers to this unit. After you finish connecting your speakers, use the SET MENU to change the

signal output settings according to the number and size of the speakers in your configuration.

Before connecting any speaker cords, identify which terminals are for the right and left channels and also the + and – polarities. If you

connect speakers with the wrong polarity (+ to –), this unit will not reproduce clear sound.

■Using speaker cords

A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One of

the cables is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove, or ridge.

To make sure you always connect speakers with the correct polarity, determine the

difference between the cables of your speaker cord, make a note of which cable

you plan to use for which polarity (+ and –), and always connect the speaker cords

consistently.

Strip off 9 mm (3/8 in.) of an inch of insulation from the ends of the cables.

Twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short circuits.

Loosen the terminal knob by turning it counterclockwise.

Insert only the exposed portion of the cable into the slot in the side of the

terminal, and tighten the terminal knob.

Note:

• If your speaker cords have banana plugs, tighten the terminal knob and insert the

plug into the end of the terminal.

Caution:

• Connect the speaker cords with care to avoid creating a short circuit. If you turn on

the power and there is a short circuit, this unit may be damaged even though the

protection circuit automatically shuts off the power.

• The SUBWOOFER jacks (output) have a built-in high cut-off filter (90 Hz). When

using a powered subwoofer, set the high cut-off frequency to “MAX” on your

Subwoofer.

• Both SUBWOOFER jacks output the same signal.

■Connecting a rear subwoofer

By using both Front and Rear Subwoofers, the CINEMA-DSP sound field

programs can produce realistic movie effects with powerful, dynamic sound. To

take advantage of this dynamic sound, be sure to set the 1C. REAR L/R SP item in

the SET MENU to “LARGE”, and connect your Rear speakers and Subwoofer as

described below.

Connect the right + input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR R +

terminal, and the right – input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR R –

terminal with speaker cords.

Connect the left + input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR L +

terminal, and the left – input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR L –

terminal with speaker cords.

Connect your Rear speakers to the output terminals on the Rear Subwoofer.

On-Screen Displays (OSD)

You can display the operation information for this unit on a video monitor. If you display the SET MENU and DSP sound field program

parameter settings on a screen, it is much easier to see the available options and parameters than it is by reading this information on the front

panel display.

If a video source is being reproduced, the OSD is superimposed over the image.

If a video source is not being reproduced (or the source component is set in the standby mode), you can set the OSD to turn on (blue

background) or off with “14 DISPLAY SET” on the SET MENU.

OSD Modes

You can change the amount of information the OSD shows.

Full Display ..........This mode always shows the sound field program parameter

settings on the video monitor.

Short Display........ This mode briefly shows the same contents as the front panel

display at the bottom of the screen, then disappears.

Display Off ........... This mode briefly shows the “DISPLAY OFF” message at the

bottom of the screen, then disappears. Afterwards, no changes to

operations appear on the screen except those of the ON

SCREEN.

Notes:

• When you choose the Full Display mode, the INPUT selector, VOLUME, and some

other types of operation information are displayed at the bottom of the screen in the same

format as the front panel display.

• The OSD signal is not output through the REC OUT selector, and will not be recorded

with any video signal.

• The SET MENU, TEST DOLBY SUR and TEST DSP appear regardless of the OSD

mode.

Selecting the OSD Mode

When you turn on the power, the video monitor and front panel display shows

the level of the main volume for a few seconds and then switches to show the

current sound field program.

Press ON SCREEN on the remote control repeatedly to change the display

mode.

The OSD mode changes in the following order: Full Display, Short Display,

and Display Off.

Notes:

• If you choose a video input source that has component connected to both the S

VIDEO IN and composite VIDEO IN jacks, and both the S VIDEO OUT and

composite VIDEO OUT jacks are connected to a video monitor, the video signal is

output to both the S VIDEO OUT and VIDEO OUT jacks. However, the OSD is

carried only on the S-video signal. If no video signal is input, the OSD is carried on

both the S-video and composite video signals.

• If your video monitor is connected only to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks of this

unit, the OSD is not shown. Make sure to connect your video monitor to the

COMPONENT VIDEO jack and either VIDEO or S VIDEO jacks if you would

like to see the OSD.

• Playing back video software that has an anti-copy signal or video signals with a lot

of noise may produce unstable images.

Speaker Placement

Where you place your speakers has a tremendous effect on how well your system sounds.

■Placing the Main speakers

Place the left and right Main speakers an equal distance from the main listening

position.

If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, the distance of each speaker

from each side of the TV or video monitor should be the same.

■Placing the Center speaker

If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, align the front face of the

Center speaker with the front face of the monitor. Place the speaker as close to the

monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the monitor. If you place the

speaker under the monitor, the Front Effect speakers can adjust the height of the

sound to correspond with the action on the screen (depending on the listener’s

position). If you have a projection screen in your system, place the Center speaker

under the screen. Be sure to align the speaker with the center of the screen.

■Placing the Front Effect, Rear, and Rear Center

speakers

The Front Effect speakers should be placed about 0.5~1m (1~3 feet) outside the

Main speakers and in the front of the room. They should be turned toward the main

listening position. Place the Rear speakers in the back of the room so they face the

main listening position. The Rear speakers can be placed farther apart than the

Front Effect speakers. The Front Effect and Rear speakers should be placed about

1.8m (6 feet) above the floor.

Once you begin listening to programs, continue to adjust the speaker placement

until you obtain a balanced sound from the Main speakers and the Front Effect and

Rear speakers.

■When you use a projection screen

Place the speakers as shown in the illustration.

The Main speakers should be placed about one-quarter of the way up from the

bottom of the screen.

Place the Center speaker in the center and directly under the screen. The Center

speaker provides precise dialogue localization.

When you use a projection screen with your system, the Front Effect speakers

provide better effect quality. The CINEMA-DSP sound field programs raise the

sound from the Center speaker upward and provide natural sound corresponding

with the video images.

■Placing the Subwoofers

Place the Front Subwoofer near the Main speakers. Turn it slightly toward the

center of the room to reduce wall reflections.

If you use a Rear Subwoofer, place it behind the main listening position. The

placement of the Rear Subwoofer is not critical because of the ultralow frequencies

of the sound being reproduced.

By adding a high quality Subwoofer to the speaker system configurations shown

on page 9, you can enjoy more powerful and realistic movie effects, even if your

Main speakers are large.

Notes:

• If you use different brands of speakers (with different tonal qualities) in your

configuration, the tone of a moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift

smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the same manufacturer or speakers

with the same tonal quality.

You can also adjust the output levels and equalization of your effect speakers using the

SET MENU.

• If you are using small speakers, the addition of a Subwoofer will reinforce the sound

effects of movies.

DSP Test

After the dsp test is selected, “TEST DSP” appears on the video monitor and

in the front display.

Adjust VOLUME +/– to hear the test tone. Make an adjustment so that the

output level coming from the Front Effect speakers is the same as that of the

Main speakers.

• The test tone is produced alternately from the Front Effect speakers and

Main speakers. The tone is produced for 2.5 seconds each time.

Adjust the output level of the Front Effect speakers using + and – so the

output level coming from the Front Effect speakers is the same as that of the

Main speakers.

• The test tone is automatically produced from the Front Effect speakers

while you are adjusting the level.

Notes:

• If you cannot hear the test tone, set VOLUME, turn off the power, and check the

speaker cords and hookups.

• The test tone can be reproduced separately from the left and right Front Effect

speakers. This is useful when you want to check the hookups to these speakers.

Press h to reproduce the test tone from the left speaker, and press g to reproduce

the tone from the right speaker. (The OSD shows which speaker is reproducing the

tone.)

• You cannot adjust the output level of the left and right Front Effect speakers

separately.

• You can hear the test tone only from the Right Front Effect speaker by pressing g

and the Left Front Effect speaker by pressing h. You can return to the original

mode by releasing the buttons.

• The tonal quality of the speakers can be adjusted using the 5. CENTER GEQ items

Input Modes and Indications

This unit comes with various input jacks. If your external component is connected to more than one type of input jack, you can set the

priority of the input signal. Press INPUT MODE on the front panel or an input button (press it repeatedly) on the remote control to display or

change the input mode.

AUTO:........... This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the power of

this unit. In this mode, the input signal is automatically selected in the

following order.

1) Dolby Digital or DTS encoded signals

2) Digital (PCM) signals

3) Analog signals

DTS: .............. In this mode, only digital input signals encoded with DTS are selected

even if other signals are input at the same time.

ANALOG: ..... In this mode, only analog input signals are selected even if digital

signals are input at the same time.

Notes:

• If digital signals are input from both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, the digital

signal from the COAXIAL jack is selected.

• When AUTO is selected, this unit automatically determines the type of signal. If this unit

detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the decoder automatically switches to the

appropriate setting and reproduces 5.1 channel source.

• The sound output may be interrupted for some LD and DVD players in the following

situation: The input mode is set to AUTO. A search is performed while playing the disc

encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, and then disc playing is restored. The sound output

is interrupted for a moment because the digital signal was selected again.

■Notes on playing a source encoded with a DTS signal

• If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you make

a digital connection between this unit and the player.

• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set the input mode to ANALOG, this unit reproduces the noise of an unprocessed

DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to connect the source to a digital input jack and set the input mode to

AUTO or DTS.

• If you switch the input mode to ANALOG while playing a source encoded with a DTS signal, this unit reproduces no sound.

• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set the input mode to AUTO, there will be a moment of noise while the unit

recognizes the DTS signal and turns on the DTS decoder. This is not a malfunction. You can avoid this by setting the input mode to

DTS beforehand.

• If you continue to play a source encoded with a DTS signal with the input mode setting left to AUTO, this unit automatically switches

to the “DTS-decoding” mode to prevent noise from being generated during subsequent operation. (The “t” indicator lights up on

the front panel display.) The “t” indicator will flash immediately after playback of a source encoded with a DTS signal has

finished. Only a source encoded with a DTS signal can be played back while this indicator is flashing. If you want to play a normal

PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO.

• The “t” indicator will flash when the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or skip operation is performed while playing back a

source encoded with a DTS signal. If this status continues for 30 or more seconds, the unit will automatically switch from the “DTS-

decoding” mode to PCM digital signal input mode and the “t” indicator will go out.

■Notes on playing an LD or DTS CD source

• For LD software that does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect the LD player to the analog jacks and set the input mode to AUTO

or ANALOG.

• If the LD player is transmitting a signal by a non-standard method, this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital or DTS signal. In this case,

the decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog.

• Some A/V components such as LD players output different audio signals through their analog and digital jacks. Change the input mode

as necessary.

Selecting a Sound Field Program

You can enhance your listening experience by selecting a DSP sound field program. The 25 DSP sound field programs are divided into 12

DSP program groups.

Set 10KEY/DSP on the remote to DSP.

Press the DSP button on main unit and rotate the Multi jog knob to select the

desired sound field program.

Notes:

• If a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is input when the input mode is set to “AUTO”,

the sound field program automatically switches to the appropriate decoding

program.

• Choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, not on the name

of the program. The acoustics of your listening room affect the sound field

program. Minimize the sound reflections in your room to maximize the effect

created by the program.

• When you select an input source, the main unit automatically selects the last sound

field program used with that source.

• When you turn off the main unit, the current source and sound field program are

memorized and are automatically selected when you turn on the power again.

• When high rate 96 kHz sampling digital signals are output from source equipment,

the DSP sound field cannot operate on the source sounds. In this case, the sounds

are reproduced as normal 2-channel stereo.

■Virtual CINEMA DSP and HP CINEMA DSP

You can experience the virtual CINEMA DSP sound field by setting the 1C. REAR L/R SP item in the SET MENU to “NONE.” The sound

field processing is changed to the Virtual CINEMA DSP mode according to the selected sound field program. The Virtual CINEMA DSP

allows you to enjoy the virtual sound fields without Rear speakers. Signals for Rear channels are output from the Main speakers. You can

also listen to HP (Headphone) CINEMA DSP by connecting your headphones to the PHONES jack while the DSP sound fields are on.

When high rate 96 kHz sampling digital signals are output from source component, the Virtual CINEMA DSP and HP CINEMA DSP cannot

operate on the source sounds.

Note:

• This unit is not set in the virtual CINEMA DSP mode even if “1C REAR L/R SP” is set to NONE in the following cases:

– when the 8ch Stereo, DOLBY DIGITAL/Normal or DTS/Normal program is selected;

– when the sound effect is turned off;

– when 6CH INPUT is selected as the input source;

– when 96-kHz sampling digital signals are input to this unit;

– when the Dolby Digital KARAOKE source is played;

– when using the test tone; or

– when connecting the headphones.

■Normal stereo reproduction

For normal stereo reproduction, press EFFECT to turn off the effect.

Notes:

• When you turn off the effect, no sound is reproduced from the Front Effect, Center, Rear,

and Rear Center speakers.

• If you turn off the effect while DTS or Dolby Digital signals are being reproduced, the

dynamic range of the signal is automatically compressed.

• The sound volume may be extremely reduced when you turn off the effect or if you

change a SET MENU item. In this case turn on the effect.

Receiving RDS Stations

AM/FM Tuner

Radio Data System (RDS) is a data transmission system by FM

stations in many countries.

RDS data contains various information such as PI (Program

Identification), PS (Program Service name), PTY (Program Type),

RT (Radio Text), CT (Clock Time), EON (Enhanced Other

Networks), etc. The RDS function is carried out among the network

stations.

■Description of RDS data

This unit can receive PI, PS, PTY, RT, CT, and EON data when

receiving RDS broadcasting stations.

PS (Program Service name) mode:

The name of the RDS station being received is displayed.

PTY (Program Type) mode:

There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations.

RT (Radio Text) mode:

Information about the program (such as the title of the song,

name of the singer, etc.) on the RDS station being received is

displayed.

CT (Clock Time) mode:

The current time is displayed and updated every minute. If the

data are accidentally cut off, “CT WAIT” may appear.

EON (Enhanced Other Networks):

■Changing the RDS mode

The four modes are available in this unit for displaying RDS

data. When an RDS station is being received, PS, PTY, RT, and/

or CT that correspond to the RDS data services offered by the

station light up on the display. Press RDS MODE repeatedly to

change the display mode among the RDS data offered by the

transmitting station in the order shown below. Illumination of the

red indicator next to the RDS mode indicator shows that the

corresponding RDS mode is now selected.

Notes:

• When an RDS station is being received, do not press RDS MODE

until one or more RDS mode indicators light up on the display. If

you press the button before the indicators light up on the display, the

mode cannot be changed. This is because the unit has not yet

received all of the RDS data on the station.

• RDS data not offered by the station cannot be selected.

• The RDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the received

signal is not strong enough.

• RDS data cannot sometimes be receive under poor reception

conditions. If so, press TUNING MODE so that the “AUTO”

indicator goes off from the display. Although the reception mode is

changed to monaural by this operation, when you change the display

to RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.

• If the signal strength is weakened by external interference during the

reception of an RDS station, the RDS data service may be cut off

suddenly and “...WAIT” will appear on the display.

Basic Recording

REC OUT allows you to record one source while viewing and/or listening to another source.

Preparations

Turn on the power to this unit and all connected component.

Select the source component you want to record using REC OUT.

• To record the current source, set REC OUT to SOURCE.

• To record a source that you do not want to reproduce, set REC OUT to the

source you want to record.

Start playback (or select a broadcast station) on the source component.

Start recording on the recording component.

• If you want to listen to another source, and REC OUT is not set to

SOURCE, select the source you want to reproduce with the INPUT

selector and adjust the volume.

Notes:

• Do a test recording before you start an actual recording.

• When this unit’s power is off, you cannot record between other component

connected to this unit.

• Operating BASS and TREBLE, BASS EXTENSION, BALANCE, VOLUME,

and DSP programs do not affect the recorded signal.

■Special considerations when recording DTS

software

The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to digitally record the DTS

bitstream will result in noise being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit

to record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them, the following

considerations need to be made.

For DTS encoded LDs, DVDs, and CDs:

Only 2-channel analog audio signals may be recorded as follows:

• LDs:

Set your Laser Disc player’s left and right outputs to the analog soundtrack.

• DVDs:

Use the disc menu to set the DVD player’s mixed 2-channel left and right

audio outputs to the PCM or Dolby Digital soundtrack.

• CDs:

The DTS signal recorded on CDs can only be output as a digital bitstream,

and therefore cannot be recorded.

■About the test tone

The test tone is produced by the tone generator.

The tone generator produces a narrow band of noise centered at a specified

frequency by the band pass filter.

You can change the center frequency from 35 Hz through 250 Hz in one-sixth

octave steps.

You can use the test tone not only for adjusting the subwoofer level, but also for

checking the low frequency characteristics of your listening room. Low frequency

sounds are especially affected by the listener’s position, speaker placement,

subwoofer polarity, and other conditions.

13. SP DELAY TIME

Use this feature to adjust the delay of the Center and the Rear Center channel sounds.

This feature works when this unit decodes DTS or Dolby Digital signals. Ideally, the

Center speaker and the Rear Center speaker should be the same distance from the

main listening position as the left and right Main speakers. However, in most home

situations, the Center speaker or the Rear Center speaker is placed in line with the

Main speakers or the Rear speakers. By delaying the sound from the Center speaker

and the Rear Center speaker, the apparent distance from the Center speaker and the

Rear Center speaker to the main listening position can be adjusted to make it seem the

same as the distance between the left and right Main speaker, and the left and right

Rear speakers to the listening position. Adjusting the delay time for the Center

speaker is especially important for giving depth to the dialogue.

You can adjust the delay time from 0 ms to 5 ms for the Center speaker and

from 0 ms to 30 ms for the Rear Center speaker.

Programming a New Remote Control Function

If you desire to program functions not included in the basic operations covered by the manufacturer code, or a manufacturer code is not

available, the following procedure needs to be performed. The possible programming area is the same as a component control area, so

buttons are programmable independently for each source component area. It is also possible to program in the main unit control area.

Place this remote control and the other remote control about

5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 in.) apart on a flat surface so that their

infrared transmitters are aimed at each other.

Select a source component.

Press LEARN using a ball point pen or similar object.

Do not press and hold LEARN longer than three seconds.

Otherwise this unit enters the Setting the Manufacture Code

mode.

Press and release the button where you want the new

function to be programmed.

Press and hold the button on the other remote control that

has the function you want to program into this remote

control until “OK” appears in the display window.

• “NG” appears in display window when programming is

not done correctly. Repeat step 4 until “OK” appears in

the display.

Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to program additional functions.

Press LEARN again to exit the Learn mode.

Notes:

• If you do not press any button within 30 seconds, the learning process is canceled.

• This remote control transmits infrared rays. If the other remote control also uses infrared rays, this remote control can learn most of the other remote

control’s functions. However, you may not be able to program some special signals or extremely long transmissions. (Refer to the operation instructions for

the other remote control.) When the memory is full, “FULL” appears in the display window, and this remote control cannot acquire any more functions.

Clear unnecessary programmed functions to allow the unit to acquire new functions.

• Even if the batteries in the other remote control have enough power to transmit signals for operation, they may not have enough power to transmit signals to

this remote control.

• When the remote controls are either too close together or too far apart, you may not be able to program this remote control.

• Direct sunlight interferes with infrared rays.

• “ERROR” appears in the display window in the following conditions: when pressing more than one button at once; and when MACRO ON/OFF is

Remote Control Features

Using the Macro Feature

The Macro feature makes it possible to perform a series of operations by pressing just one button. For example, when you want to play a CD,

normally you would turn on the components, select the CD input, and press the play button to start playback. Using the Macro feature, you

can perform all those operations by simply pressing the CD macro button. The macro buttons (the input buttons and SYSTEM POWER /

STANDBY) are factory preset with macro programs. You can also program your own macros.

*1 In order to turn on some Yamaha components connected to this unit, connect those components to AC OUTLETS on the rear panel.

*2 If the macro you select includes power on/off functions, the component may turn off if it is already on when you press the macro button. For example, if

your TV is on and you press the SYSTEM POWER macro button, the TV turns off.

*3 The components for which playback can be started are any YAMAHA remote control-compatible MD recorders, CD players, CD recorders, and DVD

players. When using macros to operate components other than these or non-YAMAHA components, it is either necessary to learn the PLAY button on the

control area of that component or to setup a manufacturer code.

Digital Sound Field Processing (DSP)

Understanding Sound Fields

A sound field is defined as the “characteristic sound reflections of a particular space.”

In concert halls and other music venues, we hear early reflections and reverberations

as well as the direct sound produced by the artist(s). The variations in the early

reflections and other reverberations among the different music venues is what gives

each venue its special and recognizable sound quality.

Yamaha sent teams of sound engineers all around the world to measure the sound

reflections of famous concert halls and music venues, and collect detailed sound field

information such as the direction, strength, range, and delay time of those reflections.

Then we stored this enormous amount of data in the ROM chips of this unit.

■Recreating a sound field

Recreating the sound field of a concert hall or an opera house requires localizing the

virtual sound sources in your listening room. The traditional stereo system that uses

only two speakers is not capable of recreating a realistic sound field. Yamaha’s DSP

requires four effect speakers to recreate sound fields based on the measured sound

field data. The processor controls the strength and delay time of the signals output

from the four effect speakers to localize the virtual sound sources in a full circle

around the listener.

The DSP sound field programs can be classified in two types based on the sound field

processing method: programs that use early reflections only and programs that use

both early reflections and reverberation.

■E/R (Early Reflection)

Each sound field is distinguished by the structure of the reflected sound. The increased processing capability of DSP technology enables

Yamaha engineers to incorporate even minute reflections with long delay times into the sound field data.

■4ch REV. (Four Channel Reverberation)

This type of program consists of early reflections and high quality digital reverberation processing. Reverberation is the most important

element for recreating the sound field of a church, for example. To recreate a realistic spatial sound image from reverberation data, Yamaha

has adapted the four-channel-output reverberation technology.

■Illustration of the virtual sound sources and echo patterns

The virtual sound sources and echo patterns for the DSP sound field programs are shown below. The illustration of the virtual sound sources

shows early reflection sound only and the illustration of the echo patterns shows both reflected sound and reverberation.

This is a large fan-shaped concert hall with approximately 2500

seats. There is relatively little reflection from the walls, and

sound spreads finely and beautifully.

■Europe Hall B

A classic shoe-box type concert hall with approximately 1700

seats. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex

reflections which produce a very full, rich sound.

■U.S.A. Hall C

This is a large 2600 seat concert hall in the United States which

features a fairly traditional European design. The middle and

high frequencies are richly and beautifully reinforced.

■Live Concert

CINEMA-DSP

Sound Design of CINEMA-DSP

Filmmakers intend the dialog to be located right on the screen, the effect sound a little farther back, the music spread even farther back, and

the surround sound around the listener. Of course, all of these sounds must be synchronized with the images on the screen.

CINEMA-DSP is an upgraded version of YAMAHA DSP specially designed for movie soundtracks. CINEMA-DSP integrates the DTS,

Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro Logic surround sound technologies with YAMAHA DSP sound field programs to provide the surround sound

field. It recreates the most complete movie sound design in your audio room. In CINEMA-DSP sound field programs, Yamaha’s exclusive

DSP processing is added to the right and left Main and Center channels, so the listener can enjoy realistic dialogue, depth of sound, smooth

transition between sound sources, and a surround sound field that goes beyond the screen.

When a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is detected, the CINEMA-DSP sound field processor automatically chooses the most suitable sound

field program for that signal.

■Movie theater programs

The six-channel soundtracks found on 70 mm film produce precise sound field localization and rich, deep sound without using matrix

processing. This unit’s Movie Theater 70 mm Programs provide the same quality of sound and sound localization that six-channel

soundtracks do. The built-in Dolby Digital decoder brings the professional quality sound designed for movie theaters into your home. With

this unit’s Movie Theater program, you can recreate a dynamic sound that gives you the feeling of being at a public theater in your living

room using the Dolby Digital technology.

Dolby Pro Logic + DSP sound field effect

These programs express an immense sound field and a large surround effect. They

also give depth to the sound from the Main speakers to recreate the realistic sound

of a Dolby Stereo theater.

Dolby Digital/DTS + DSP sound field effect

These programs use Yamaha’s tri-field DSP process on each of the Dolby Digital

or DTS signals for the front, Left surround, and Right surround channels. This

processing enables this unit to reproduce the immense sound field and surround

expression of a Dolby Digital or DTS equipped movie theater without sacrificing

the clear separation of all channels.

Dolby Digital Matrix 6.1/DTS ES + DSP sound field

effect

These programs provide you the maximum experience of the spacious surround

effects since an extra rear center DSP sound field created from the Rear Center

channel is added.

■Classical/Opera

This program provides excellent vocal depth and overall clarity

by restraining excessive reverberation.

The surround sound field is relatively moderate but it reproduces

beautiful sound using data collected from a concert hall.

■Pop/Rock

This program produces an enthusiastic atmosphere and lets you

feel as if you are at an actual jazz or rock concert.

■Mono Movie

This program is provided for reproducing monaural video

sources (such as old movies). The program produces the

optimum reverberation to create sound depth using only the

presence sound field.

■Variety/Sports

Though the presence sound field is relatively narrow, the

surround sound field employs the sound environment of a large

concert hall. With this program, you can enjoy watching various

TV programs such as news, variety shows, music programs, or

sports programs.

■Spectacle

This program creates the extremely wide sound field of a 70 mm

movie theater. It precisely reproduces the source sound in detail,

making both the video and the sound fields incredibly real. This

program is ideal for any kind of Dolby Surround video source

(especially large-scale movie productions).

■Sci-Fi

This program clearly reproduces the broad and expansive

cinematic space from the soundtracks of the latest science fiction

films.

■Adventure

This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design

of the newest 70 mm and multichannel soundtrack films. The

sound field is made to be similar to that of the newest movie

theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are

restrained as much as possible.

■General

This program is for reproducing sounds from 70 mm and

multichannel soundtrack films, and is characterized by a soft and

extensive sound field. The presence sound field is relatively

narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen,

restraining the effect of conversations without losing clarity.

■Normal/Matrix 6.1/ES

The built-in decoder precisely reproduces sounds and sound

effects from sources. The highly efficient decoding process

improves crosstalk and channel separation and makes sound

positioning smoother and more precise.

In this program, no DSP effect is applied.

■Enhanced/6.1/ES

This program ideally simulates the multiple surround speaker

systems of 35 mm film theaters. The Dolby Surround decoding

and the digital sound field processing create precise effects

without altering the original sound orientation. The surround

effects produced by this sound field wrap around the viewer

naturally from the back to the left and right and toward the

screen.

Entertainment Program Group 7

■Game

This program adds a deep and spatial feeling to video game

sounds.

You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your listening room. Not all

of the following parameters are found in every program.

INIT. DLY (Initial Delay)

[P. INT. DLY for the presence sound field] Control Range 1 – 99 msec

Function.............. This parameter changes the apparent distance from the source sound by adjusting the delay between the direct sound

and the first reflection heard by the listener.

Description ......... The smaller the value, the closer the sound source seems to the listener. The larger the value, the farther the apparent

distance seems. For a small room, this parameter would be set to a small value, and for a large room, it would be set to

a large value.

ROOM SIZE

[P. ROOM SIZE for the presence sound field] Control Range 0.1 – 2.0

Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround sound

field becomes.

Description ......... As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between the original

reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the reflected sounds, you can change

the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from one to two, doubles the apparent length of the

room.

LIVENESS Control Range 0 – 10

Function .............. This parameter adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early reflections

decay.

Description ......... The early reflections of a sound source decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall surfaces than in

one which has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces is referred to as “dead,” while a

room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as “live.” The LIVENESS parameter lets you adjust the early

reflection decay rate, and thus the “liveness” of the room.

S. DELAY (Surround Delay) Control Range 0 – 49 msec (The range depends on the signal format.)

Function .............. This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the surround sound field.

S. INIT. DLY (Surround Initial Delay) Control Range 1 – 49 msec

Function .............. This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection on the surround side of the sound

field. You can only adjust this parameter when at least two front channels and two rear channels are used.

S. ROOM SIZE (Surround Room Size) Control Range 0.1 – 2.0

Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field.

Function.............. This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the rear center sound field.

RC. ROOM SIZE (Rear Center Room Size) Control Range 0.1 – 2.0

Function.............. This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the rear center sound field.

RC. LIVENESS (Rear Center Liveness) Control Range 0 – 10

Function.............. This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual wall in the rear center sound field.

REV. TIME (Reverberation Time) Control Range 1.0 – 5.0 sec

Function.............. This parameter adjusts the amount of time it takes for the dense, subsequent reverberation sound to decay by 60 dB (at

1 kHz). This changes the apparent size of the acoustic environment over an extremely wide range.

Description ......... Set a longer reverberation time for “dead” sources and listening room environments, and a shorter time for “live”

sources and listening room environments.

REV. DELAY (Reverberation Delay) Control Range 0 – 250 msec

Function.............. This parameter adjusts the time difference between the beginning of the direct sound and the beginning of the

reverberation sound.

Description ......... The larger the value, the later the reverberation sound begins. A later reverberation sound makes you feel like you are

in a larger acoustic environment.

Troubleshooting

Tuner

Problem

FM stereo reception is noisy.

There is distortion and clear

reception cannot be obtained

even with a good FM

antenna.

A desired station cannot be

tuned in with the automatic

tuning method.

Previously preset stations

can no longer be tuned in

using preset tuning.

A desired station cannot be

tuned in with the automatic

tuning method.

There are continuous

crackling and hissing noises.

There are buzzing and

whining noises (especially in

the evening).

Possible Cause

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.

There is multipath interference.

The station is too weak.

This unit has been unplugged for a long period.

Weak signal or loose antenna connections.

Noises result from lightning, fluorescent lamps,

motors, thermostats and other electrical

component.

A television set is being used nearby.

What to Do

Check the antenna connections.

Try using a high quality directional FM antenna.

Set TUNING MODE to the manual tuning mode.

Adjust the antenna orientation to eliminate

multipath interference.

Use the manual tuning method.

Use a high quality directional FM antenna.

Repeat the presetting procedure.

Tighten the AM loop antenna connections and

adjust the antenna’s orientation for best reception.

Use the manual tuning method.

Use an outdoor antenna and a ground wire.

This will help somewhat but it is difficult to

eliminate all the noises.

Relocate this unit away from the TV.

Put this sticker to cover the screw holes after tearing off the back side of the sticker. Installing Batteries in the Remote Control Insert the batteries in the correct direction by aligning the + and – marks on the batteries with the polarity illustrations (+ and –) inside the battery compartment. Change the batteries periodically. Do not use old batteries together with new ones. Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline and manganese batteries) together. Read the packaging carefully as these different types of batteries may have the same shape and color. ■ About changing batteries Reset button As the batteries wear out, the operating range of the remote control decreases and the TRANSMIT indicator does not flash or its light becomes dim. When you notice any of these conditions, change all of the batteries. Notes: • If the remote control is without batteries for more than 20 minutes, or if worn out batteries remain in the unit, the contents of the memory may be cleared. If the memory is cleared, insert new batteries and reprogram any functions that may have been cleared. • After you insert new batteries, be sure to push RESET in the battery compartment using a ball point pen or similar object before using the remote control. (This does not clear the contents of the memory.) Using the Remote Control The remote control transmits a directional infrared beam. Be sure to aim the remote control directly at the remote control sensor on the main unit to operate. When the sensor is covered or there is a large object between the remote control and the main unit, the sensor cannot receive signals. The sensor may not be able to receive signals properly when it is exposed to direct sunlight or a strong artificial light (such as a fluorescent or strobe light). In this case, change the direction of the light or reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting. ■ About handling the remote control VOLUME INPUT INPUT MODE NATURAL SOUND AV RECEIVER RX–V3000RDS STANDBY /ON SPEAKERS A B DVD D-TV/LD SILENT SOURCE EFFECT TUNER SAT VCR 1 VCR 2/DVR VIDEO AUX BASS 30° TREBLE PRESET /TUNING FM/AM MEMORY TUNING MODE RDS MODE EON PTY SEEK MD/TAPE CD-R CABLE BASS PROCESSOR EXTENSION DIRECT PHONES CD 6CH PHONO INPUT REC OUT 30° EDIT MAN'L/AUTO FM AUTO/NAN'L MONO S VIDEO VIDEO MODE L AUDIO R START OPTICAL DSP PROGRAM VIDEO AUX Approximately 6m (20 feet) Handle the remote control with care.

If you do not use eight speakers, you can direct the signals for speakers that are not in your system to other speakers in your configuration. A Subwoofer can be used with any of these configurations to produce a fuller sound. Front Effect Speakers Rear Speakers Main Speakers Center Speaker Rear Center Speaker Front Subwoofer Rear Subwoofer ■ Eight or Seven Speaker Configuration –Full Cinema DSP– ( ) When you reproduce feature film software, this configuration fully expresses the powerful and realistic sound qualities of 70 mm multitrack audio. The dialogue is positioned as if it were coming from directly on the screen, the sound effect is positioned slightly behind the screen, and the soundtrack music is positioned even further behind the screen to express the width and depth of the overall presentation. This configuration makes the most of this unit’s capability. The Rear Center speaker is useful for playback of 6-channel Digital Surround. ■ Six Speaker Configuration –Hi Fi DSP– This configuration is used the most for audio playback with HiFi DSP. It does not position the dialogue sound as well as a seven or eight speaker configuration. However, it creates a dynamic DSP (Digital Sound Field Processor) sound field which adds depth to the sound. For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to “NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE”. ■ Five Speaker Configuration –Standard 5.1 Channel– This configuration does not express the height of the sound field as well as the seven or eight speaker configuration. However, it positions the dialogue sound as coming directly from the screen. For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to “NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE”. ■ Four Speaker Configuration –Minimum Requirement– In this configuration, the Center speaker signals and Front Effect speaker signals are directed to the left and right Main speakers. For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to “NONE,” item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to “NONE,” and item 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE”. 9 Introduction Hookups Connecting Audio Components Before you connect any components, disconnect the power supply to all the components you plan to connect including this unit and determine which jacks are for the left and right channels and for input and output. When you connect other YAMAHA audio component (such as a CD player or changer, MD deck, or tape deck), connect to terminals with the same number labels. Yamaha applies this labelling system to all its products. In the hookup illustrations on the following pages: ■ Connecting to digital jacks Preparations This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You can use the digital jacks to input PCM, DTS, and Dolby Digital bitstreams. When you connect components to both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks (for CD and CABLE) priority is given to the input signals from the COAXIAL jack. All digital input jacks are acceptable for 96 kHz/24 bit digital signals. ■ About the dust protection cap Basic Operation Pull out the cap from the optical jack before you connect the fiber optic cable. Do not discard the cap. When you are not using the optical jack, be sure to put the cap back in place. This cap protects the jack from dust. The OPTICAL jacks on this unit conform to the EIA standard. If you use a fiber optic cable that does not conform to this standard, this unit may not function properly. ■ Connecting a turntable These jacks are for connecting a turntable with an MM or high output MC cartridge. If you have a turntable with a low output MC cartridge, use an inline boosting transformer or MC-head amplifier when connecting to these jacks. The GND terminal does not electrically ground the turntable. It simply reduces noise in the signal. In some cases, you may hear less noise if you do not connect to the GND terminal. ■ Connecting a CD player Advanced Operation • The COAXIAL CD and OPTICAL CD jacks are available for a CD player which has coaxial or optical digital outputs. • When you connect a CD player to both the COAXIAL CD and OPTICAL CD jacks, priority is given to the input signals from the COAXIAL CD jack. ■ Connecting an MD or DAT deck • When you connect a recorder to this unit, keep the deck’s power on while using this unit. If the power is off, this unit may distort the sound from other component. Additional Information • When you record from source component connected to this unit while this unit’s power is off, the recorded sound may be distorted. To avoid this problem, turn on this unit. Appendix • When you connect a CD recorder to both the analog and digital input and output jacks, priority is given to the digital signals. 10 Hookups English OPTICAL INPUT MD/TAPE recorder INPUT OUTPUT L <Analog> R R L INPUT L OPTICAL INPUT <Digital> <Analog> R OPTICAL OUTPUT L <Analog> <Digital> OUTPUT CD recorder <Analog> R OPTICAL OUT (REC) <Digital> <Digital> OUT (REC) OPTICAL OUTPUT OPTICAL OUTPUT L COAXIAL OUTPUT <Analog> R CD player <Digital> CENTER L OUTPUT <Analog> R Turntable GROUND to/from External Amplifier to/from External Controller from External Decoder 11 Hookups Connecting Video Components Introduction Before you connect any components, disconnect the power supply to all the components you plan to connect including this unit and determine which jacks are for the left and right channels and for input and output. After you finish all hookups, check them again to make sure they are correct. ■ About the video jacks Preparations There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the VIDEO jacks are the conventional composite video signals. Video signals input through the S VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals. The S-video signals achieve high quality color reproduction. Video signals input through the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (PB/CB, PR/CR) video signals. The jacks are also separated into three for each signal. The labels of the component video jacks may be different depending on the component (e.g. Y, CB, CR / Y, PB, PR / Y, B-Y, R-Y/ etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction. Composite VIDEO jack S VIDEO jack COMPONENT VIDEO jacks If your video component has an S-video output or component video output, you can connect it to this unit. Connect the S-video signal output jack on your video component to the S-VIDEO jack or connect the component signal output jacks on your video component to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks. Notes: • Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input through the composite video, S-video, and component jacks are output through the corresponding composite video, Svideo, and component jacks respectively. Basic Operation • Use a commercially available S-video cable when connecting to the S VIDEO jacks, and commercially available video cables when connecting to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks. Appendix Additional Information Advanced Operation • When you are using the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks, check the details in the owner’s manual that came with the component being connected. 12 Hookups English COMPONENT OUTPUT S VIDEO OUTPUT OPTICAL OUTPUT DVD player VIDEO OUTPUT <Component Video> COMPONENT OUTPUT R <Analog> <Digital> L <Video> AUDIO OUTPUT <Component Video> VIDEO OUTPUT <Video> S VIDEO OUTPUT AUDIO OUTPUT OPTICAL OUT (REC) L R DTV/LD player OPTICAL OUTPUT <Analog> OUT (REC) <Digital> L <Analog> R AUDIO OUTPUT SAT OPTICAL OUTPUT <Digital> CENTER AUDIO INPUT <Video> <Video> <Component Video> <Video> <Video> VIDEO OUTPUT <Analog> S VIDEO OUTPUT <Digital> CABLE COAXIAL OUTPUT <Analog> Cable TV/SAT AUDIO OUTPUT L R L VIDEO INPUT R S VIDEO OUTPUT S VIDEO INPUT S VIDEO VIDEO OUTPUT INPUT Monitor VCR 1/2 VIDEO INPUT COMPONENT INPUT 13 Hookups Connecting Speakers Introduction This section explains how to connect speakers to this unit. After you finish connecting your speakers, use the SET MENU to change the signal output settings according to the number and size of the speakers in your configuration. Before connecting any speaker cords, identify which terminals are for the right and left channels and also the + and – polarities. If you connect speakers with the wrong polarity (+ to –), this unit will not reproduce clear sound. ■ Using speaker cords Preparations A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One of the cables is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove, or ridge. To make sure you always connect speakers with the correct polarity, determine the difference between the cables of your speaker cord, make a note of which cable you plan to use for which polarity (+ and –), and always connect the speaker cords consistently. 1 Strip off 9 mm (3/8 in.) of an inch of insulation from the ends of the cables. 2 Twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short circuits. 3 Loosen the terminal knob by turning it counterclockwise. 4 Insert only the exposed portion of the cable into the slot in the side of the terminal, and tighten the terminal knob. Note: Basic Operation • If your speaker cords have banana plugs, tighten the terminal knob and insert the plug into the end of the terminal. Caution: Appendix Additional Information Advanced Operation • Connect the speaker cords with care to avoid creating a short circuit. If you turn on the power and there is a short circuit, this unit may be damaged even though the protection circuit automatically shuts off the power. 14 Hookups English Right Front Speaker Left Front Speaker Right Rear Speaker Left Rear Speaker Rear Center Speaker TUNER CAUTION SEE INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR CORRECT SETTING.

However, the OSD is carried only on the S-video signal. If no video signal is input, the OSD is carried on both the S-video and composite video signals. • If your video monitor is connected only to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks of this unit, the OSD is not shown. Make sure to connect your video monitor to the COMPONENT VIDEO jack and either VIDEO or S VIDEO jacks if you would like to see the OSD. • Playing back video software that has an anti-copy signal or video signals with a lot of noise may produce unstable images. 19 Speaker Placement Introduction Where you place your speakers has a tremendous effect on how well your system sounds. ■ Placing the Main speakers TV or Video monitor Main Speaker Main Speaker Place the left and right Main speakers an equal distance from the main listening position. If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, the distance of each speaker from each side of the TV or video monitor should be the same. ■ Placing the Center speaker Preparations TV or Video monitor If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, align the front face of the Center speaker with the front face of the monitor. Place the speaker as close to the monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the monitor. If you place the speaker under the monitor, the Front Effect speakers can adjust the height of the sound to correspond with the action on the screen (depending on the listener’s position). If you have a projection screen in your system, place the Center speaker under the screen. Be sure to align the speaker with the center of the screen. Center Speaker 1m 0.5~1m 1.5~3m 0.5~1m 1m (3ft) (1~3ft) (5~15ft) (1~3ft) (3ft) FR L C R Basic Operation FL R RR L RC ■ Placing the Front Effect, Rear, and Rear Center speakers The Front Effect speakers should be placed about 0.5~1m (1~3 feet) outside the Main speakers and in the front of the room. They should be turned toward the main listening position. Place the Rear speakers in the back of the room so they face the main listening position. The Rear speakers can be placed farther apart than the Front Effect speakers. The Front Effect and Rear speakers should be placed about 1.8m (6 feet) above the floor. Once you begin listening to programs, continue to adjust the speaker placement until you obtain a balanced sound from the Main speakers and the Front Effect and Rear speakers. ■ When you use a projection screen 1 Advanced Operation L R 1/4 C Place the speakers as shown in the illustration. The Main speakers should be placed about one-quarter of the way up from the bottom of the screen. Place the Center speaker in the center and directly under the screen. The Center speaker provides precise dialogue localization. When you use a projection screen with your system, the Front Effect speakers provide better effect quality. The CINEMA-DSP sound field programs raise the sound from the Center speaker upward and provide natural sound corresponding with the video images. ■ Placing the Subwoofers Front Effect speakers Rear speakers Additional Information Main speakers 1.8 m (6 feet) Center Speaker Front Subwoofer Rear Center speaker Rear Subwoofer Place the Front Subwoofer near the Main speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections. If you use a Rear Subwoofer, place it behind the main listening position. The placement of the Rear Subwoofer is not critical because of the ultralow frequencies of the sound being reproduced. By adding a high quality Subwoofer to the speaker system configurations shown on page 9, you can enjoy more powerful and realistic movie effects, even if your Main speakers are large. Notes: Appendix • If you use different brands of speakers (with different tonal qualities) in your configuration, the tone of a moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the same manufacturer or speakers with the same tonal quality. You can also adjust the output levels and equalization of your effect speakers using the SET MENU. • If you are using small speakers, the addition of a Subwoofer will reinforce the sound effects of movies. 20 Speaker Settings Summary of SPEAKER SET items 1A through 1G Item Description Initial Setting 1A.

AUTO:DTS AUTO:PCM AUTO:ANALOG AUTO:--- AUTO: ........... This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the power of this unit. In this mode, the input signal is automatically selected in the following order. 1) Dolby Digital or DTS encoded signals 2) Digital (PCM) signals 3) Analog signals DTS: .............. In this mode, only digital input signals encoded with DTS are selected even if other signals are input at the same time. ANALOG: ..... In this mode, only analog input signals are selected even if digital signals are input at the same time. Notes: • If digital signals are input from both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, the digital signal from the COAXIAL jack is selected. • DTS DTS DTS:--• ANALOG ANALOG • When AUTO is selected, this unit automatically determines the type of signal. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and reproduces 5.1 channel source. • The sound output may be interrupted for some LD and DVD players in the following situation: The input mode is set to AUTO. A search is performed while playing the disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, and then disc playing is restored. The sound output is interrupted for a moment because the digital signal was selected again. ANALOG:--- ■ Notes on playing a source encoded with a DTS signal • If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection between this unit and the player. • If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set the input mode to ANALOG, this unit reproduces the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to connect the source to a digital input jack and set the input mode to AUTO or DTS. • If you switch the input mode to ANALOG while playing a source encoded with a DTS signal, this unit reproduces no sound. • If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set the input mode to AUTO, there will be a moment of noise while the unit recognizes the DTS signal and turns on the DTS decoder. This is not a malfunction. You can avoid this by setting the input mode to DTS beforehand. • If you continue to play a source encoded with a DTS signal with the input mode setting left to AUTO, this unit automatically switches to the “DTS-decoding” mode to prevent noise from being generated during subsequent operation. (The “t” indicator lights up on the front panel display.) The “t” indicator will flash immediately after playback of a source encoded with a DTS signal has finished. Only a source encoded with a DTS signal can be played back while this indicator is flashing. If you want to play a normal PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO. • The “t” indicator will flash when the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or skip operation is performed while playing back a source encoded with a DTS signal. If this status continues for 30 or more seconds, the unit will automatically switch from the “DTSdecoding” mode to PCM digital signal input mode and the “t” indicator will go out. ■ Notes on playing an LD or DTS CD source • For LD software that does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect the LD player to the analog jacks and set the input mode to AUTO or ANALOG. • If the LD player is transmitting a signal by a non-standard method, this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital or DTS signal. In this case, the decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog. • Some A/V components such as LD players output different audio signals through their analog and digital jacks. Change the input mode as necessary. • While you are operating the LD player and playing a disc encoded with a Dolby Digital signal, if you switch from the pause or chapter forwarding function to normal playback, you may hear the PCM or analog sound an instant before the Dolby Digital signal is played. 27 English This unit comes with various input jacks. If your external component is connected to more than one type of input jack, you can set the priority of the input signal. Press INPUT MODE on the front panel or an input button (press it repeatedly) on the remote control to display or change the input mode. Basic Playback Selecting a Sound Field Program Introduction You can enhance your listening experience by selecting a DSP sound field program. The 25 DSP sound field programs are divided into 12 DSP program groups. 10KEY/DSP 1 Set 10KEY/DSP on the remote to DSP. 2 Press the DSP button on main unit and rotate the Multi jog knob to select the desired sound field program. Notes: Preparations • If a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is input when the input mode is set to “AUTO”, the sound field program automatically switches to the appropriate decoding program. • Choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, not on the name of the program. The acoustics of your listening room affect the sound field program. Minimize the sound reflections in your room to maximize the effect created by the program. 6.1/ES If you want to utilize the Rear Center speaker with a 5.1 channel program source, press 6.1/ ES. • When you select an input source, the main unit automatically selects the last sound field program used with that source. • When you turn off the main unit, the current source and sound field program are memorized and are automatically selected when you turn on the power again. • When high rate 96 kHz sampling digital signals are output from source equipment, the DSP sound field cannot operate on the source sounds. In this case, the sounds are reproduced as normal 2-channel stereo.

The variations in the early reflections and other reverberations among the different music venues is what gives each venue its special and recognizable sound quality. Yamaha sent teams of sound engineers all around the world to measure the sound reflections of famous concert halls and music venues, and collect detailed sound field information such as the direction, strength, range, and delay time of those reflections. Then we stored this enormous amount of data in the ROM chips of this unit. R L R R FR FL ■ Recreating a sound field Recreating the sound field of a concert hall or an opera house requires localizing the virtual sound sources in your listening room. The traditional stereo system that uses only two speakers is not capable of recreating a realistic sound field. Yamaha’s DSP requires four effect speakers to recreate sound fields based on the measured sound field data. The processor controls the strength and delay time of the signals output from the four effect speakers to localize the virtual sound sources in a full circle around the listener. The DSP sound field programs can be classified in two types based on the sound field processing method: programs that use early reflections only and programs that use both early reflections and reverberation. ■ E/R (Early Reflection) Each sound field is distinguished by the structure of the reflected sound. The increased processing capability of DSP technology enables Yamaha engineers to incorporate even minute reflections with long delay times into the sound field data. ■ 4ch REV. (Four Channel Reverberation) This type of program consists of early reflections and high quality digital reverberation processing. Reverberation is the most important element for recreating the sound field of a church, for example. To recreate a realistic spatial sound image from reverberation data, Yamaha has adapted the four-channel-output reverberation technology. ■ Illustration of the virtual sound sources and echo patterns The virtual sound sources and echo patterns for the DSP sound field programs are shown below. The illustration of the virtual sound sources shows early reflection sound only and the illustration of the echo patterns shows both reflected sound and reverberation. Virtual Sound Sources Echo Patterns The center of these circles represents the virtual sound source. The size of the circle indicates the strength of the virtual sound source.

There is relatively little reflection from the walls, and sound spreads finely and beautifully. Concert Hall 2 ■ U.S.A. Hall C Preparations This is a large 2600 seat concert hall in the United States which features a fairly traditional European design. The middle and high frequencies are richly and beautifully reinforced. Church ■ Freiburg Basic Operation This program recreates the acoustic environment of a big church located in south Germany. The reverberation delay is very long while the early reflections are smaller than with other sound field programs. Jazz Club ■ Village Gate This is the sound field at a jazz club in New York. It is in a basement and has a relatively spacious floor area. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the hall. Rock Concert ■ Roxy Theatre Advanced Operation The ideal program for lively, dynamic rock music. The data for this program was recorded at LA’s “hottest” rock club. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center-left of the hall. Program Group 1 ■ Europe Hall B A classic shoe-box type concert hall with approximately 1700 seats. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections which produce a very full, rich sound. Program Group ■ Live Concert A large round concert hall with a rich surround effect. Pronounced reflections from all directions emphasize the extension of sounds. The sound field has a great deal of presence, and your virtual seat is near the center, close to the stage. Program Group This program gives you the long delays and extraordinarily spacious feel of a stadium that is no less than 990 feet (300 meters) in diameter. Additional Information Entertainment ■ Disco Appendix This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a big city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. 60 3 ■ Royaumont This program features the sound field created by the refectory (dining hall) of a beautiful medieval Gothic monastery located in Royaumont on the outskirts of Paris. Program Group 4 ■ The Bottom Line This is the sound field at stage front in “The Bottom Line”, a famous New York jazz club. The floor can seat 300 people to the left and right in a sound field offering a real and vibrant sound. Program Group 5 ■ Arena A classic shoe-box type concert hall. This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, with the extraordinarily spacious feel of a large arena. Stadium ■ Anaheim 2 Program Group 6 ■ Bowl This program gives you the feel of an outdoor stadium with the typical bowl-shaped seating arrangement. Program Group 7 ■ 8ch Stereo This is a sound field suitable for background music at parties where you can hear the sound directly from the rear as well. The number of speakers to output depends on SPEAKER SET in SET MENU. CINEMA-DSP English Sound Design of CINEMA-DSP Filmmakers intend the dialog to be located right on the screen, the effect sound a little farther back, the music spread even farther back, and the surround sound around the listener. Of course, all of these sounds must be synchronized with the images on the screen. CINEMA-DSP is an upgraded version of YAMAHA DSP specially designed for movie soundtracks. CINEMA-DSP integrates the DTS, Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro Logic surround sound technologies with YAMAHA DSP sound field programs to provide the surround sound field. It recreates the most complete movie sound design in your audio room. In CINEMA-DSP sound field programs, Yamaha’s exclusive DSP processing is added to the right and left Main and Center channels, so the listener can enjoy realistic dialogue, depth of sound, smooth transition between sound sources, and a surround sound field that goes beyond the screen. When a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is detected, the CINEMA-DSP sound field processor automatically chooses the most suitable sound field program for that signal. AV ROOM L SURROUND SOUND FIELD PRESENCE SOUND FIELD DIALOG EFFECT MUSIC R SURROUND SOUND FIELD ■ Movie theater programs The six-channel soundtracks found on 70 mm film produce precise sound field localization and rich, deep sound without using matrix processing. This unit’s Movie Theater 70 mm Programs provide the same quality of sound and sound localization that six-channel soundtracks do. The built-in Dolby Digital decoder brings the professional quality sound designed for movie theaters into your home. With this unit’s Movie Theater program, you can recreate a dynamic sound that gives you the feeling of being at a public theater in your living room using the Dolby Digital technology. Dolby Pro Logic + DSP sound field effect Presence DSP sound field These programs express an immense sound field and a large surround effect. They also give depth to the sound from the Main speakers to recreate the realistic sound of a Dolby Stereo theater. Surround DSP sound field Dolby Digital/DTS + DSP sound field effect Presence DSP sound field Left surround DSP sound field These programs use Yamaha’s tri-field DSP process on each of the Dolby Digital or DTS signals for the front, Left surround, and Right surround channels. This processing enables this unit to reproduce the immense sound field and surround expression of a Dolby Digital or DTS equipped movie theater without sacrificing the clear separation of all channels. Right surround DSP sound field Dolby Digital Matrix 6.1/DTS ES + DSP sound field effect These programs provide you the maximum experience of the spacious surround effects since an extra rear center DSP sound field created from the Rear Center channel is added. 61 CINEMA-DSP CINEMA-DSP Programs Introduction According to the input signal format, this unit automatically chooses the appropriate decoder and DSP sound field pattern.

Concert Video ■ Classical/Opera This program provides excellent vocal depth and overall clarity by restraining excessive reverberation. The surround sound field is relatively moderate but it reproduces beautiful sound using data collected from a concert hall. TV Theater ■ Mono Movie This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources (such as old movies). The program produces the optimum reverberation to create sound depth using only the presence sound field. Movie Theater 1 ■ Spectacle This program creates the extremely wide sound field of a 70 mm movie theater. It precisely reproduces the source sound in detail, making both the video and the sound fields incredibly real. This program is ideal for any kind of Dolby Surround video source (especially large-scale movie productions). Movie Theater 2 ■ Adventure This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of the newest 70 mm and multichannel soundtrack films. The sound field is made to be similar to that of the newest movie theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as much as possible. Dolby/DTS Surround ■ Normal/Matrix 6.1/ES The built-in decoder precisely reproduces sounds and sound effects from sources. The highly efficient decoding process improves crosstalk and channel separation and makes sound positioning smoother and more precise. In this program, no DSP effect is applied. ■ Pop/Rock This program produces an enthusiastic atmosphere and lets you feel as if you are at an actual jazz or rock concert. Program Group 9 ■ Variety/Sports Though the presence sound field is relatively narrow, the surround sound field employs the sound environment of a large concert hall. With this program, you can enjoy watching various TV programs such as news, variety shows, music programs, or sports programs. Program Group 10 ■ Sci-Fi This program clearly reproduces the broad and expansive cinematic space from the soundtracks of the latest science fiction films. Program Group 11 ■ General This program is for reproducing sounds from 70 mm and multichannel soundtrack films, and is characterized by a soft and extensive sound field. The presence sound field is relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen, restraining the effect of conversations without losing clarity. Program Group 12 ■ Enhanced/6.1/ES This program ideally simulates the multiple surround speaker systems of 35 mm film theaters. The Dolby Surround decoding and the digital sound field processing create precise effects without altering the original sound orientation. The surround effects produced by this sound field wrap around the viewer naturally from the back to the left and right and toward the screen. 63 DSP Parameter Introduction You can enjoy good quality sound with the preset parameters.

Parameters Example using the ROCK CONCERT program Parameter Descriptions You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program. INIT. DLY (Initial Delay) [P. INT. DLY for the presence sound field] Control Range 1 – 99 msec Advanced Operation Function .............. This parameter changes the apparent distance from the source sound by adjusting the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection heard by the listener. Description ......... The smaller the value, the closer the sound source seems to the listener. The larger the value, the farther the apparent distance seems. For a small room, this parameter would be set to a small value, and for a large room, it would be set to a large value. Time Additional Information INIT.DLY Early Reflections Level Level Level Sound Source Time INIT.DLY Time INIT.DLY Sound Source Reflection Face Appendix Small value = 1 ms 64 Large value = 99 ms DSP Parameter ROOM SIZE [P. ROOM SIZE for the presence sound field] Control Range 0.1 – 2.0 Description ......... As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between the original reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from one to two, doubles the apparent length of the room. Time Level Early Reflections Level Level Sound Source Time Time Sound Source Small value = 0.1 Large value = 2.0 LIVENESS Control Range 0 – 10 Function .............. This parameter adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early reflections decay. Description ......... The early reflections of a sound source decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall surfaces than in one which has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces is referred to as “dead,” while a room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as “live.” The LIVENESS parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the “liveness” of the room. Sound Source Time Level Dead Level Level Live Time Time Sound Source Small Reflected Sound Small value = 0 S. DELAY (Surround Delay) Large Reflected Sound Large value =10 Control Range 0 – 49 msec (The range depends on the signal format.) Function .............. This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the surround sound field. S. INIT. DLY (Surround Initial Delay) Control Range 1 – 49 msec Function .............. This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection on the surround side of the sound field. You can only adjust this parameter when at least two front channels and two rear channels are used. S. ROOM SIZE (Surround Room Size) Control Range 0.1 – 2.0 Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. 65 English Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround sound field becomes. DSP Parameter S. LIVENESS (Surround Liveness) Control Range 0 –10 Introduction Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual walls in the surround sound field. RC. INIT. DLY (Rear Center Initial Delay) Control Range 1 – 49 msec Function .............. This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the rear center sound field. RC. ROOM SIZE (Rear Center Room Size) Control Range 0.1 – 2.0 Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the rear center sound field. RC. LIVENESS (Rear Center Liveness) Control Range 0 – 10 Preparations Function .............. This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual wall in the rear center sound field. REV. TIME (Reverberation Time) Control Range 1.0 – 5.0 sec Function .............. This parameter adjusts the amount of time it takes for the dense, subsequent reverberation sound to decay by 60 dB (at 1 kHz). This changes the apparent size of the acoustic environment over an extremely wide range. Description ......... Set a longer reverberation time for “dead” sources and listening room environments, and a shorter time for “live” sources and listening room environments. Sound Source Reverberation Reverberation Basic Operation Early Reflections 60 dB 60 dB REV. TIME Sound Source 60 dB REV. TIME REV. TIME Long Reverberation Short Reverberation Advanced Operation Small value = 1.0 s Large value = 5.0 s REV. DELAY (Reverberation Delay) Control Range 0 – 250 msec Function .............. This parameter adjusts the time difference between the beginning of the direct sound and the beginning of the reverberation sound. Level Description ......... The larger the value, the later the reverberation sound begins. A later reverberation sound makes you feel like you are in a larger acoustic environment. Sound Source Additional Information (dB) 60 dB Reverberation Time Appendix REV. DELAY 66 REV TIME DSP Parameter REV.

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. Use a high quality directional FM antenna. Use the manual tuning method. There are buzzing and A television set is being used nearby. whining noises (especially in the evening). Use an outdoor antenna and a ground wire. This will help somewhat but it is difficult to eliminate all the noises. Relocate this unit away from the TV. 71 Troubleshooting Remote Control Introduction Problem The remote control does not work. Preparations The remote control does not function properly. Basic Operation The remote control does not “learn” new functions. (The TRANSMIT indicator does not light up or flash.) Appendix Additional Information Advanced Operation Continuous functions such as volume are learned, but operate only for a moment before stopping. 72 Possible Cause What to Do The batteries are dead. Replace the batteries with new ones and press RESET inside the battery compartment. The internal microcomputer has “frozen”. Press RESET inside the battery compartment. Wrong distance or angle. The remote control will function within a maximum range of 6 m (20 feet), no more than 30 degrees offaxis from the front panel. Direct sunlight or lighting (such as an inverter type of fluorescent lamp) is striking the remote control sensor of this unit. Change the position of this unit. The internal microcomputer has “frozen”. Press RESET inside the battery compartment. The batteries of this remote control and/or the other remote control are too weak. Replace the batteries (and press RESET inside the battery compartment). The distance between the two remote controls is too far or near. Place the remote controls at the proper distance. The signal coding or modulation of the other remote control is not compatible with this remote control. Learning is not possible. Memory capacity is full. Further learning is not possible without deleting unnecessary functions. The internal microcomputer has “frozen”. Press RESET inside the battery compartment. The learning process is incomplete. Be sure to press and hold the function button on the other remote control until TRANSMIT begins flashing slowly.
