SPEAKER SETUP
Speaker Placement
Refer to the following diagram when you place the
speakers.
Speakers to Be Used
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality
with a 5-speaker system, using main speakers, rear speakers
and a center speaker. If you use different brands of speakers
(with different tonal qualities) in your system, 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 manufacture or speakers with the same tonal quality.
The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus
the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from
your present stereo system. The rear speakers are used for
the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker is for
the center sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it
is not practical to use a center speaker, you can do without
it. Best results, however, are obtained with the full system.
The main speakers should be high-performance models and
have enough power-handling capacity to accept the
maximum output of your audio system. The other speakers
do not have to be equal to the main speakers. For precise
sound localization, however, it is ideal to use high-
performance models that can reproduce sounds over the full
range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.
■ Use of a subwoofer expands your
sound field
It is also possible to further expand your system with the
addition of a subwoofer. The use of a subwoofer is effective
not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all
channels, but also for reproducing the LFE (low frequency
effect) channel with high fidelity when playing back a
source encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS. The YAMAHA
Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for
natural and lively bass reproduction.

1.8 m
■ Main speakers
Place the right and left main speakers an equal distance
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each
speaker from each side of the TV monitor should be the
same.
■ Rear speakers
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing
slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) above the
floor.
■ Center speaker
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face
of your TV monitor. Place the speaker as close to the
monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the
monitor and centrally between the main speakers.
Note
• If the center speaker is not used, the sound will be heard from the
right and left main speakers. In that case, “CENTER SP” in the
SET MENU is set to the NONE position. (Refer to page 34 for
details.)
■ Subwoofer
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low
bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to
place the subwoofer near the main speakers. Turn it slightly
toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reflections.
CAUTION
Some types of speakers interfere with a TV monitor. If
this problem occurs, move the speakers away from the
monitor. If you cannot avoid installing the center speaker
or subwoofer near the TV monitor, use magnetically
shielded speakers.

Connecting the Antennas
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal
strength. However, a properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor
reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality.
Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals.
■ Indoor FM antenna (included)
Firmly insert the connector into the FM ANT terminal. The
indoor FM antenna is only a simple antenna. For reception
with better sound quality, installing the outdoor FM antenna
(commercially available) is recommended.
Note
• Do not connect an outdoor FM antenna and the indoor FM
antenna at the same time.
■ Outdoor FM antenna
You may be unable to obtain good FM radio reception
depending on your local conditions (distance from the
broadcasting station, interposing buildings and
mountains, etc.). Consult your dealer or authorized service
center and be sure to install an antenna that suits your local
conditions.
Install the outdoor FM antenna (commercially available) in
a high place as far away from any roads as possible to avoid
being affected by automobile ignition noise.

■ Notes on playing a source
encoded with DTS
• If “DATA ERROR” appears on the display while playing an LD
source encoded with DTS, stop playback and turn the player off
and then on again.
• 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 an LD source encoded with DTS and set the input
mode to ANALOG, there will be the noise of an unprocessed
DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to
connect the source to the digital input terminal 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 an LD source encoded with DTS and set the input
mode to AUTO, there will be a short noise at first while the unit
recognizes the DTS signal and turns on the DTS decoder. This is
not a malfunction, and can be avoided by setting the input mode
to DTS beforehand. In addition, if you continue to play an LD
encoded with DTS 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 display.) No sound will be
heard if a normal PCM LD is played in this mode. (The “t”
indicator will flash.) To play a normal disk, set the input mode to
AUTO again.
PLAYING A SOURCE
■ Notes on playing an LD source
• Some audio/video component, such as LD player, output different
audio signals through their analog and digital terminals. Change
the input mode as necessary.
• If the input mode is set to AUTO for the LD source, this unit
automatically determines which type of signal the LD source
contains. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the
decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and
reproduces 5.1 channel sound.
• If the LD player is transmitting signals by a non-normal method,
this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital or DTS signal. In this
case, the decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog.
• If the LD source does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect
the LD player to the analog terminals and set the input mode to
AUTO or ANALOG.

This program ideally simulates the multi-
surround speaker systems of the 35 mm-film
movie theater. Dolby Pro Logic decoding,
Dolby Digital decoding or DTS decoding and
digital sound field processing are precisely
performed without altering the original sound
orientation.
The surround effect produced by the sound
field folds around the viewer naturally from
the rear to the right and left and toward the
screen.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor (DSP). This processor allows you to
electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-
like experience in your listening room. You can create outstanding audio sound by selecting a suitable DSP program (this
will, of course, depend on what you are listening to).
When you select a CINEMA DSP program, one of the built-in decoders (Dobly Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS) is turned
on according to which type of signals the source being played contains.
The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that
most of these are precise digital re-creations of actual acoustic environments.

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. The
data for the sound field of an opera house are
used for the front presence, so the three-
dimensional feeling of the sound field is
emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on
the screen. By using the data for the sound field
of a concert hall on the surround sound field,
powerful reverberations are generated. You can
enjoy watching action, adventure movies, etc.

7. D-RANGE (Adjusting the dynamic
range)
Choices: MAX/STD (Standard)/MIN
Preset position: MAX
Note
• This adjustment is only effective when Dolby Digital is being
decoded.
“Dynamic range” is the difference between the maximum
level and the minimum level of sounds. Sounds on a movie
originally designed for movie theaters feature a very wide
dynamic range. Dolby Digital technology can modify the
original sound track into a home audio format with this
wide dynamic range unchanged. Powerful sounds of
extremely wide dynamic range are not always suitable for
home use. Depending on the condition of your listening
environment, it may not be possible to increase the sound
output to a level as high as that in a movie theater. However,
at the normal level suitable for listening in your room, the
low-level parts of source sound often cannot be heard well
because they will be lost among noise in your environment.
Dolby Digital technology has also made it possible to
reduce an original sound track’s dynamic range for a home
audio format by “compressing” the sound data.
MAX
In this position, a source encoded with Dolby Digital is
reproduced in the original sound track’s wide dynamic
range to provide you with powerful sounds just like those in
a movie theater. Selecting this position will be even better if
you can listen to a source at a high output level in a room
specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment.
STD (Standard)
In this position, a source encoded with Dolby Digital is
reproduced in the “compressed” dynamic range of the
source that is suitable for low-level listening.
MIN
In this position, the dynamic range is more reduced than in
the STD position. Selecting this position will be effective
when you must listen to a source at a low level.
Note
• It may happen that sound is output faintly or not output normally
depending on the source. In that case, select the MAX or STD
position.
5. MAIN LVL
Choices: NORM (Normal)/–10 dB
Preset position: NORM (Normal)
NORM (Normal)
Normally select this position.
–10 dB
Select this position if the sound output from the main
speakers is too loud and cannot be balanced with the sound
output from the center and rear speakers. In this position,
the sound output from the main speakers is attenuated.
Notes
• The setting of “CENTER SP”, “REAR SP”, “MAIN SP” and
“BASS OUT” have no effect on a source connected to the
EXTERNAL DECODER INPUT terminals on the rear of this
unit.
• Once you have adjusted appropriately for “CENTER SP”, “REAR
SP”, “MAIN SP”, “BASS OUT” and “MAIN LVL”, you do not
have to change any settings unless your speaker system is
modified.
6. D.D. LFE (Adjusting the output
level of the LFE channel for Dolby
Digital)
Control range: –20 dB to 0 dB (in 1 dB steps)
Preset value: 0 dB
Note
• This adjustment is only effective when Dolby Digital is being
decoded and the selected source encoded with Dolby Digital
contains LFE signals.
This adjusts the output level of the LFE channel. If the LFE
signals are mixed with signals of other channels and they
are directed to the same speakers, the ratio of the LFE signal
level to the level of the other signals can be adjusted.

9. CNTR DELAY (Adjusting the delay
of the center sound)
Control range: 0 ms to 5 ms (in 1 ms steps)
Preset value: 0 ms
Note
• This adjustment is only effective when Dolby Digital or DTS is
being decoded and the selected source encoded with Dolby
Digital or DTS contains center channel signals.
This adjusts the delay between the main sound (on the main
channels) and dialog, etc. (on the center channel). The larger
the value, the later the dialog, etc. is generated.
This makes sounds from the left main, center and right main
speakers reach your listening position at the same time. This
is achieved by delaying the sound from the center speaker if
the distance from the center speaker to your listening
position is shorter than the distance from the right and left
main speaker to your listening position.

DELAY TIME AND SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS
When using the digital sound field processor with the Dolby
Pro Logic decoder, Dolby Digital decoder or DTS decoder,
you can adjust the delay time between the main sound and
sound effect, and each speaker’s output level as you wish.
Delay Time
You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of
the sound from the main speakers and the beginning of the
sound effect from the rear speakers. The larger the value,
the later the sound effect is generated. The delay time can be
individually adjusted to all DSP programs.
Notes
• Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with some
sources.
• The sound is momentarily interrupted while adjusting the delay
time.
Sound Output Level of the Center,
Right Rear and Left Rear Speakers,
and Subwoofer
If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of each
speaker even if it has already been adjusted in
“ADJUSTING THE SPEAKER BALANCE” on pages 18
and 19.
Notes
• The sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted
when the input signal is analog, PCM audio, or encoded with
Dolby Digital in 2-channel.
• If “CENTER SP” in the SET MENU is set to the NONE position,
the sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted.
This is because the center channel sound is automatically output
from the right and left main speakers.
• Once the sound output level has been adjusted, the level will be
the same for all DSP programs.

deck or CD player
connected to this unit.
There is noise
interference from digital
or high-frequency
equipment, or the unit.
The unit is too close to the digital or high-
frequency equipment.
Move the unit further away from such
equipment.
■ When playing back a source encoded with DTS
Refer to
page
A loud hissing noise is
heard when playing back
a source encoded with
DTS.
The player which plays back the source is not
connected to a digital audio signal input
terminal of this unit.
The player must be connected to a digital audio
signal input terminal of this unit besides the
analog audio signal terminal connections.
The input mode is set to ANALOG on this unit. Set a proper input mode to turn on the built-in
DTS decoder.
A percussive noise is
heard when playing back
a source encoded with
DTS.
If the input mode is set to AUTO, depending on
some sources, there may be a noise heard while
this unit is identifying the format of the input
signal.
Set the input mode of the currently selected
input source to DTS.
No sound is heard when
playing back a source
encoded with DTS, even
if the input mode is set
to AUTO on this unit.
The built-in DTS decoder does not function
because the player has a digital volume control
and it is set at a position other than
“maximum,” “neutral” or “ineffective.”
Set the player’s digital volume control at the
maximum, neutral or ineffective position.
No sound is heard when
playing back an MD or
DAT on which has been
recorded a source
encoded with DTS.
A source encoded with DTS cannot be recorded
on an MD or DAT.
No sound is heard when
playing back a source
(CD, etc.) even if the
currently selected input
mode is AUTO.
In the AUTO mode, the DTS-decoding mode
cannot be automatically changed to the normal
(PCM) digital signal input mode.
Set the input mode to AUTO again.
Notes
• It is necessary to use a DTS decoder to play back a source encoded with DTS, so the player which plays back the source must be connected
to a digital audio input terminal of this unit in the way described in this manual. If this connection is not made or only a D-to-A converter is
being used without using a DTS decoder, only a loud hissing noise will be heard when you play back the source.
• If you make a search (or skip, etc.) operation while playing back a source encoded with DTS, the “t” indicator goes off. This is because
this unit automatically changes the DTS-decoding mode to the standard (PCM) digital signal input mode to prevent a noise from being
output.

CINEMA DSP
GLOSSARY
■ Dolby Surround
Dolby Surround uses four discrete channels and five
speakers to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects:
two main channels (left and right), a center channel for
dialog, and a rear channel for special sound effects. The rear
channel reproduces sound within a narrow frequency range.
Most video tapes and laser discs include Dolby Surround
encoding, as do many TV and cable broadcasts. The Dolby
Pro Logic decoder built into this unit employs a digital
signal processing system that stabilizes each channel for
even more accurate sound positioning than is available with
standard analog processors.
■ Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that
provides completely independent multi-channel audio to
you. Dolby Digital provides five full-range channels in what
is sometimes referred to as a “3/2” configuration: three front
channels (left, center and right), and two surround channels.
A sixth bass-only effect channel is also provided for output
of LFE (low frequency effect), or low bass effects that are
independent of other channels. (This is called the “LFE
channel”.) This channel is counted as 0.1, thus giving rise to
the term 5.1 channels in total.
The wide dynamic range of sound reproduced by the five
full-range channels and precise sound orientation by digital
sound processing provides listeners with excitement and
realism that have never been experienced before.
■ DTS (Digital Theater System)
Digital Surround
DTS was developed to replace analog soundtracks of
movies with six discrete channels of digital soundtracks,
and it is now installed in many theaters around the world.
The DTS digital playback system changed the way we
experienced movies in theaters with six discrete channels of
superb digital audio.
DTS technology, through intense research and development
has made it possible to deliver similar encode/decode
discrete technology to home audio surround-sound
entertainment.
DTS Digital Surround is an encode/decode system which
delivers six channels of master-quality, 20-bit audio;
technically, it is 5.1 channels, which means 5 full-range
(left, center, right and two surround) channels, plus a
subwoofer (LFE) channel (as “0.1”). It is compatible with
the 5.1 speaker configurations that are currently available
for home theater systems.
■ CINEMA DSP
The Dolby Surround and Dolby Digital sound and DTS
systems show their full ability in a large movie theater,
because movie sounds are originally designed to be
reproduced in a large movie theater that uses a multitude of
speakers. Trying to create a sound environment similar to
that of a movie theater in your home is difficult because of
the room size, material inside the walls, the number of
speakers, and so on. In other words, your listening room is
very different from a movie theater.
However, YAMAHA DSP technology allows you to create
nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie
theater in your home by compensating for the lack of
presence and dynamics in the listening room with original
digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround, Dolby
Digital or DTS Digital Surround sounds.
The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those
programs that are created by the combination of YAMAHA
DSP technology and Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital or
DTS.
■ LFE 0.1 Channel
This channel is for reproduction of low bass signals. The
frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz. This
channel is called the channel 0.1 because it only reproduces
a low frequency range compared to the full-range from
20 Hz to 20 kHz that is reproduced by the 5 channels in a
Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel system.
■ S VIDEO Signal
The S VIDEO signal is separated and transmitted as the Y
signal which indicates the luminance and the C signal which
indicates the chroma of the video signal (composite signal).
Using the S VIDEO terminal eliminates video signal
transmission loss and allows recording and playback of
even more beautiful images.
