NOTES ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER

PROFILE OF THIS UNIT

This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital

sound field processor. The processor allows you to

electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound

field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like

experience in your listening room. This unit has a total of 10

digital sound field processor (DSP) modes. You can create an

excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field

(this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to),

and adding desired adjustments.

In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround

decoder and Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder for multi-channel

sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video sources.

The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital

(AC-3) decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding

DSP program including combined operations of the Yamaha

DSP and the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital (AC-3)

decoder.

Digital Sound Field Processing

What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced

sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to

the sound of a live performance, but chances are you’ll still

notice something missing, the acoustic environment of the live

concert hall. Extensive research into the exact nature of the

sonic reflections that create the ambience of a large hall has

made it possible for Yamaha engineers to bring you this same

sound in your own listening room, so you’ll feel all the sound of

a live concert.

Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated

measuring equipment, have even made it possible to capture

the acoustics of a variety of actual concert halls, jazz clubs,

theaters, etc. from around the world, to allow you to accurately

recreate any one of these live performance environments, all in

your own home.

Dolby Pro Logic Surround

This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar

to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie

theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you

can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby

Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro

Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro

Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four levels:

the left and right main channels, the center channel (used for

dialog), and the rear surround sound channels (used for sound

effects, background noise, and other ambient noises). The

center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal

positions to hear the dialog originating from the action on the

screen while experiencing good stereo imaging.

Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of pre-recorded

video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable broadcasts. When

you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on this unit,

the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder decodes the signal and

distributes the surround-sound effects.

This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital

signal processing system. This system improves the stability of

sound at each channel and crosstalk between channels, so

that positioning of sounds around the room is more accurate

compared with conventional analog signal processing systems.

In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance

control. This always assures you the best performance without

manual adjustment.

Dolby Digital (AC-3)

The built-in Dolby Digital (AC-3) Decoder leads you into a

totally new sound experiences.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) is a new generation of multi-channel digital

audio technology, or the newest spatial sound processing

format developed for 35 mm film-movies by employing a new

kind of low bit-rate audio coding.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) is a digital surround sound system that

provides completely independent multi-channel audio to

consumers. In multi-channel form, Dolby Digital (AC-3)

provides five full range channels in what is sometimes referred

to as a “3/2” configuration: three front channels (left, center and

right), plus 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 channel is counted as 0.1, thus giving rise to

the term 5.1 channels in total.

Compared to Dolby Pro Logic that is referred to a “3/1” system

(left front, center, right front and just one surround channel),

Dolby Digital (AC-3) features two surround channels, called

stereo or split surrounds, each offering the same full range

fidelity as the three front channels.

Sound of wide dynamic range reproduced by the five full range

channels presents listeners much excitement that has never

been experienced before. Precise sound orientation by the

discrete digital sound processing expands realism that the

original movie possesses.

Laser Disc and DVD are home audio formats that could benefit

from Dolby Digital (AC-3). In the near future, Dolby Digital (AC-

3) will also be applied to DBS, CATV and HDTV. The ongoing

release of Dolby Stereo Digital theatrical films now underway

will provide an immediate source of Dolby Digital (AC-3)

encoded video software.

English

Dolby Surround + DSP (CINEMA DSP)

Dolby Surround sound system shows its full ability in a large

movie theater, because movie sounds are originally designed

to be reproduced in a large movie theater using many

speakers. It is difficult to create a sound environment similar to

that of a movie theater in your listening room, because the

room size, materials of inside walls, the number of speakers,

etc. of your listening room is much different from those of a

movie theater.

Yamaha DSP technology made it possible to present you with

nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie

theater in your listening room by compensating for lack of

presence and dynamics in your listening room with its original

digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround sound field.

The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those programs

are created by the combination of Dolby Surround and

YAMAHA DSP technology.

Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing

Corporation. “Dolby”, “AC-3”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D

symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing

Corporation.

The following original functions make the surround-sound

effect of Dolby Digital (AC-3) become the most suitable for your

audio system and the listening conditions.

● Dynamic range (sound scale) of source can be

changed so that it will be suitable for the listening

conditions.

● Output of low bass from any channel can be assigned

to either the MAIN SPEAKERS terminals or

SUBWOOFER terminal to maximize system

performance.

● Output of LFE can be assigned to either the MAIN

SPEAKERS terminals or SUBWOOFER terminal to

maximize system performance.

Dolby Pro Logic + 2 Digital Sound Fields

Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and

the rear surround side of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround-

decoded sound field respectively. They create a wide

acoustic environment and emphasize surround-effect in the

room, letting you feel much presence as if you are watching

a movie in a popular Dolby Stereo theater.

This combination is available when the sound field program

No. 2, No. 3 or No. 4 is selected, and the input signal of

source is analog, PCM audio or encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) in 2-channels.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) + 3 Digital Sound Fields

Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and

the independent left and right surround sides of the Dolby

Digital (AC-3)-decoded sound field respectively. They

create a wide acoustic environment and much surround

effect in the room without losing high channel separation.

With wide dynamic range of Dolby Digital (AC-3) sound, this

sound field combination lets you feel as if you are watching

a movie in the newest Dolby Stereo Digital theater. This will

be the most ideal home theater sound at the present time.

This combination is available when the sound field program

No. 2, No. 3 or No. 4 is selected, and the input signal of

source is encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) (except in

2-channels).

SPEAKERS TO BE USED

SPEAKER CONFIGURATION

5-Speaker Configuration

This configuration is the most effective and recommended one.

When playing back a source using the DSP program,

DIGITAL (PRO LOGIC), DIGITAL (PRO LOGIC)

ENHANCED, DIGITAL (70 mm) MOVIE THEATER or TV

SPORTS, or when playing back a source which contains

center-channel signals (dialog, vocals, etc.) using any DSP

program with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded, conversations

will be output from the center speaker and the ambience will be

excellent.

Note: Set the CENTER SPEAKER mode to the “NORMAL” or

“WIDE” position. (For details, refer to page 22.)

4-Speaker Configuration

The center speaker is not used in this configuration. When

playing back a source using the DSP program, DIGITAL

(PRO LOGIC), DIGITAL (PRO LOGIC) ENHANCED,

DIGITAL (70 mm) MOVIE THEATER or TV SPORTS, or when

playing back a source which contains center-channel signals

(dialog, vocals, etc.) using any DSP program with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) decoded, the center sound is output from the left

and the right main speakers. However, the sound effect of

other programs can be the same as that of the 5-speaker

configuration.

Note: Be sure to set the CENTER SPEAKER mode to the

“PHANTOM” position. (For details, refer to page 22.)

This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality

with a 5 speaker configuration, using main speakers, rear

speakers and a center speaker.

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.

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 in 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 and amplifier. 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) sound with high fidelity when playing back a

source with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded. You may wish to

choose the convenience of a Yamaha Active Servo Processing

Subwoofer System, which has its own built-in power amplifier.

English

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

When you place speakers, refer to the following.

Main: In normal position. (The position of your present

stereo speaker system.)

Rear: Behind your listening position, facing slightly inward.

Nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) up from the floor.

Center: Precisely between the main speakers. (To avoid

interference with TV sets, use a magnetically shielded

speaker.)

Subwoofer:

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical

because low bass tones are not highly directional.

CONNECTING TO DIGITAL (OPTICAL AND COAXIAL) TERMINALS

If your DVD (LD) player, TV/satellite tuner, etc. are equipped

with coaxial or optical digital audio signal output terminals, they

can be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL

digital signal input terminals.

To make a connection between optical digital audio signal

terminals, remove the cover from each terminal, and then

connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber

cable that conforms to EIAJ standards. Other cables might not

function correctly.

Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the OPTICAL (or

COAXIAL) terminal of this unit, you must keep the unit

connected with the same named analog audio signal terminals

of this unit, because digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape

deck or VCR connected to this unit. You can switch the

selection of input signals between “digital” and “analog” easily.

(See page 29 for details.)

Notes

●

When connecting an audio/video unit to both of the digital

and analog terminals of this unit, make sure to connect to

both terminals of the same name.

●

Be sure to attach the covers when the OPTICAL terminals

are not being used, in order to protect the terminals from

dust.

●

All digital audio signal input terminals are applicable to the

sampling frequency of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.

DVD (LD) player

TV/Satellite tuner

(U.S.A. model)

If your LD player has AC-3 RF signal output terminal and no

digital signal output terminal for AC-3 discrete audio signals,

connect the AC-3 RF signal output terminal to this unit’s

OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) digital signal input terminal by using

an RF demodulator (separate purchase).

First, connect the AC-3 RF signal output terminal of the LD

player to the AC-3 RF signal input terminal of the RF

demodulator. Next, connect the optical (or coaxial) digital

signal output terminal of the RF demodulator to the OPTICAL

(or COAXIAL) digital signal input terminal of this unit.

This connection is necessary for sending audio signals

encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) from the LD player to

this unit.

It is also necessary to connect the LD player to this unit’s

analog audio signal input terminals regardless of the AC-3 RF

signal connection, for playing back an LD source with the

Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoded or in normal stereo (or

monaural).

If desired, you can also connect the digital signal output

terminal (for 2-channel audio signals) of the LD player to this

unit. If you will do so, connect it to the COAXIAL digital signal

input terminal of this unit, and connect the RF demodulator to

the OPTICAL digital signal input terminal of this unit.

By this connection, if the input mode of the DVD/LD source is

in “AUTO”, you can enjoy listening to sounds with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) decoded when you play a disc encoded with the

Dolby Digital (AC-3) though signals are input to both OPTICAL

and COAXIAL digital signal input terminals of this unit

simultaneously (because signals input to the OPTICAL terminal

take priority of signals input to the COAXIAL terminal).

See page 29 for details about switching the input mode.

Notes on connecting with an LD player equipped with an AC-3 RF output

RF demodulator

(YAMAHA APD-1 etc.)

(U.S.A. model)

Notes

●

If your LD player has an OPTICAL digital output terminal

(for 2-channel audio signals), be sure not to connect it to

this unit’s OPTICAL digital input terminal. If you do so,

when you play a disc encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3),

the Dolby Digital (AC-3) will not be decoded because the 2-

channel audio signals input to this unit’s OPTICAL digital

input terminal are selected prior to the signals encoded with

the Dolby Digital (AC-3) input to this unit’s COAXIAL digital

input terminal by way of an RF demodulator.

●

If, for example, you play a CD on the LD player (which can

play a CD also), there is no input to the OPTICAL terminal,

so the signals input to the COAXIAL terminal take priority. In

this case, switch off the RF demodulator to listen to CD

sound surely. However, if your RF demodulator is the

Yamaha model APD-1, you do not have to switch it off.

●

When you want to play a source encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) without decoding the Dolby Digital (AC-3),

you must switch off the power to the RF demodulator.

LD player

If you have a video cassette recorder and a monitor equipped

with “S” (high-resolution) video terminals, those terminals can

be connected to this unit’s S VIDEO SIGNAL terminals.

Connect the video cassette recorder’s “S” video input and

output terminals to this unit’s S VIDEO SIGNAL VCR IN and

OUT terminals respectively, and connect the monitor’s “S”

video input terminal to this unit’s S VIDEO SIGNAL MONITOR

OUT terminal. Otherwise, connect the video cassette

recorder’s composite video terminals to this unit’s composite

video terminals, and connect the monitor’s composite video

input terminal to this unit’s composite MONITOR OUT terminal.

Note

If video signals are sent to both S VIDEO SIGNAL input

and composite input terminals, the signals will be sent to

their respective output terminals.

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS

●

Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following diagram.

●

Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal

strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience

poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.

Connecting the AM loop antenna

* The AM loop antenna should be placed apart from the main unit. The antenna may be hung on a wall.

* The AM loop antenna should be kept connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.

GND terminal

For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the

GND terminal to a good earth ground. A good earth ground is

a metal stake driven into moist earth.

Notes

●

When connecting the indoor

FM antenna, insert its

connector into the FM ANT

terminal firmly.

●

If you need an outdoor

FM antenna to improve

FM reception quality, either

300-ohm feeder or coaxial cable may be used. In locations

troubled by electrical interference, coaxial cable is

preferable.

tone generator. When this adjustment is performed, the sound output level heard at the listening position will be the same from

each speaker. This is important for the best performance of the digital sound field processor, the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder and

the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder.

The adjustment of each speaker output level should be done at your listening position with the remote control transmitter.

Otherwise, the result may not be satisfactory.

You will hear a test tone (like pink noise) from the left main

speaker, then the center speaker, then the right main

speaker, then the right rear speaker, and then the left rear

speaker, for about two seconds each. The display changes

as shown below.

* The state of test-tone output is also shown on the monitor

screen by an image of audio listening room. This is

convenient for adjusting each speaker level.

* If the function “4. CENTER SPEAKER” in the SET MENU

mode is set in the PHNTM (phantom) position, you will

hear the center channel test tone from the left and right

main speakers.

9 Adjust the BALANCE control so that the effect sound

output level of the left main speaker and the right main

speaker are the same.

10 Adjust the sound output levels of the center speaker

and the rear speakers so that they become almost

as same as that of the main speakers.

a) Press or once or more so that “CENTER”, “R

SUR.” or “L SUR.” appears on the display.

* Select “CENTER” to adjust the output level of the

center speaker, select “R SUR.” to adjust the output

level of the right rear speaker, and select “L SUR.” to

adjust the output level of the left rear speaker.

b) Adjust its level.

level.

* While adjusting, the test tone is fixed on the selected

speaker.

11 Cancel the test tone.

Notes

●

Once you have completed these adjustments, you can

adjust whole sound level on your audio system by using

the VOLUME control (or the MASTER VOLUME keys on

the remote control transmitter) only.

●

If you use external power amplifiers, you may also use

their volume controls to achieve proper balance.

●

If the function “4. CENTER SPEAKER” in the SET MENU

mode is set in the “PHNTM (phantom)” position, in step

10, the sound output level of the center speaker cannot be

adjusted. This is because in this mode, the center sound

is automatically output from the left and right main

speakers.

●

If there is insufficient sound output from the center and

rear speakers, you may decrease the main speaker

output level by setting the MAIN LEVEL switch on the

rear panel to “–10 dB”.

DESCRIPTIONS OF THE FUNCTIONS

1. CENTER DELAY (Adjusting the delay

of center sounds (dialog etc.))

Control range: 0 ms to 5 ms (in 1 ms step)

Preset value: 0 ms

* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital

(AC-3) is decoded and the signals of selected source

encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) contain center-

channel signals.

Adjusts the delay between the main sounds (at the main

channels) and dialog etc. (at the center channel).

The larger the value, the later the dialog etc. is generated.

This is for making sounds from the left main, center and right

main speakers reach your listening position at the same time

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 left or right main speaker to your

listening position.

2. DYNAMIC RANGE (Adjusting dynamic

range)

Choices: MAX/STD/MIN

Preset position: MAX

* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital

(AC-3) is decoded.

MAX: “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 very wide dynamic range.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) technology can bring the original

sound track into a home audio format with this wide

dynamic range unchanged.

In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) is reproduced in the original sound

track’s wide dynamic range providing you with

powerful sounds like a movie theater.

Selecting this position will be more ideal if you can

listen to a source in a high output level in a room

specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment.

STD (Standard):

Powerful sounds of extremely wide dynamic range

are not always suitable for home use. Depending

upon the condition of your listening environment, it

may not be possible to increase the sound output

level as high as a movie theater. However, in a level

suitable for listening to in your room, the low level

parts of source sound cannot be heard well because

they will be lost among noises in your environment.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) technology also made it

possible to reduce an original sound track’s dynamic

range for a home audio format by “compressing” the

data of sound.

In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) is reproduced in the “compressed”

dynamic range of the source suitable for low level

listening.

MIN: In this position, dynamic range is more reduced than

in the STD position. Selecting this position will be

effective when you must listen to a source in

extremely low level.

3. LFE LEVEL (Adjusting the output

level at the LFE (low frequency effect)

channel)

Control range: –14 dB to 0 dB (in 2 dB step)

Preset value: 0 dB

* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital (AC-

3) is decoded and the signals of selected source encoded

with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) contain LFE signals.

Adjusts the output level at the LFE (low frequency effect)

channel. If the LFE signals are mixed with signals at other

channels to output them from the same speakers, the ratio of

LFE signal level to the level of other signals are adjusted. (See

page 6 for details about the LFE channel.)

4. CENTER SPEAKER

5. REAR SPEAKER

6. MAIN SPEAKER

7. LFE/BASS OUT

See pages 22 to 23 for details. (Once you have selected

proper modes, you do not have to make a setting change until

any alteration is made in your speaker system.)

8. TV/DBS INPUT (Selecting the initial

input mode of the sources connected

to the TV/DBS input terminals)

For the sources connected to the TV/DBS input terminals of

this unit only, you can designate the input mode that is

automatically selected when the power of this unit is switched

on.

AUTO: In this position, the AUTO input mode is always

selected when the power of this unit is switched on.

LAST: In this position, the input mode you have selected

last time is memorized and will not be changed even

if the power of this unit is switched on.

See page 29 for details about switching the input mode.

Set to the “

∞

” position.

2 Turn the power on.

3 Select the desired input source by using the input

selector buttons.

(For video sources, turn the TV/monitor ON.)

* The name of the selected input source will appear on the

display.

4 For the DVD/LD or TV/DBS source, its current input

mode is also shown.

* To change the input mode for the DVD/LD or TV/DBS

source, press the input selector button for the currently

selected source once or more until the desired input

mode (AUTO or ANALOG) is shown on the display

panel. (See page 29 for details on switching the input

mode.)

5 Select the main speakers to be used.

* If you use two main speaker systems, press both the A

and B switches.

USING DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP)

This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically expand

and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your

listening room. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course, depend

on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments.

In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder and a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound

reproduction of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The operation of these decoders can be controlled by selecting a

corresponding DSP program including a combined operation of the YAMAHA DSP and the Dolby Digital (AC-3) or the Dolby Pro

Logic Surround.

For details about digital sound field programs, see page 40 to 41.

PLAYING A SOURCE WITH AN EFFECT OF THE DIGITAL SOUND FIELD

PROCESSOR (DSP)

1 Follow steps 1 – 7 shown in “BASIC OPERATIONS” on

pages 28 to 29.

2 Select the desired program that is suitable for the

source.

* The name of selected program lights up on the display panel

and the monitor screen.

3 If desired, adjust the delay time and the output level of

each speaker. (For details, refer to the corresponding

descriptions on page 38 and 39.)

Notes

●

Program selection can be made to individual input sources.

Once you select a program, it is linked with the input source

selected at that time. So, when you select the input source

next time, the same program is automatically called.

●

If you prefer to cancel the DSP, press the EFFECT button.

The sound will be the normal 2-channel stereo without

surround sound effect.

●

When a monaural sound source is played with DOLBY PRO

LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED, no sound is

heard from the main speakers and the rear speakers.

Sound is heard only from the center speaker. However, if

the center channel mode is in PHANTOM, the main

speakers output the sound of the center channel.

●

When this unit’s Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder or Dolby

Digital decoder is used, if the main-source sound is

considerably altered by overadjustment of the BASS or

TREBLE control, the relationship between the center and

rear channels may produce an unnatural effect.

To enjoy a video source with the Dolby Pro

Logic Surround or Dolby Digital (AC-3)

decoded

When you select the program No. 1, 2 or 3, and the input

signal of the source is 2-channel stereo, Dolby Pro Logic

Surround is decoded. When some program is selected and the

input signal of the source is encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-

3), Dolby Digital (AC-3) is automatically decoded.

* The following indicators on the display panel show you what

sound processing is being made.

* In addition, for the program No. 1, 2 and 3, the name of the

program on the display panel or the monitor screen will change

according to the type of decoding. (For details, refer to page

40.)

Note

If the input signals of source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-

3) are in 2-channels only, the sound processing for them is similar

to that for analog or PCM audio signals.

To cancel the effect sound

The EFFECT button on the front panel and the EFFECT ON/OFF

key on the remote control transmitter make it simple to compare

the normal stereo sound with the fully processed effect sound.

To cancel the effect sound and monitor only the main sound,

press the EFFECT ON/OFF key or the EFFECT button. Press

the EFFECT ON/OFF key or the EFFECT button a second time

to restore normal operation.

Notes

●

If the effect sound is canceled when signals encoded with the

Dolby Digital (AC-3) are input to this unit, signals of all

channels are mixed and are output from the main speakers.

●

If the EFFECT button or the EFFECT ON/OFF key is pressed

to turn effect sounds OFF when the Dolby Digital (AC-3) is

decoded, it may happen that sound is output faintly or not

output normally depending on a source. In that case, press the

EFFECT button or the EFFECT ON/OFF key to turn effect

sounds ON, or use input signals not encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3).

The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most of

these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments. The data for these sound fields was recorded at actual

locations using sophisticated sound field measurement equipment.

Note

The channel level balance between the left and right rear effect speakers may vary depending on the sound field you are

listening to. This is due to the fact that most of these sound field recreations are actual acoustic environments.

FEATURE

Reproduces video discs, video tapes and similar sources which are Dolby

Surround encoded and bear the “DOLBY SURROUND” logo.

The built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder or Dolby Digital (AC-3)

decoder precisely reproduces sounds and sound effects of a source

encoded with Dolby Surround. The realization of a highly efficient decoding

process improves crosstalk and channel separation and makes sound

positioning smoother and more precise.

Reproduces video discs, video tapes and similar sources which are Dolby

Surround encoded and bear the “DOLBY SURROUND” logo.

This program ideally simulates the multi-surround speaker systems of the 35

mm film theater. The Dolby Surround decoding and the digital sound field

processing is precisely performed without altering the originally designed

sound orientation. The surround effects produced by this sound field folds

the viewer naturally from the rear to the left and right and toward the screen.

Note: If the main channel sound is considerably altered by overadjustment

of the BASS or TREBLE controls, the relationship with the rear channels

may produce an unnatural effect.

Ideal for reproducing video discs, video tapes and similar sources which are

Dolby Surround encoded and bear the “DOLBY SURROUND” logo.

This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of the

newest 70 mm/Dolby Digital multi-track 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. The three dimensional

feeling of the sound field is emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on

the screen. You can enjoy watching Sci-Fi, adventure movies, etc. with

much presence.

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS

English

FEATURE

This program is furnished with a tight sound field in which the

sound will not spread excessively on the front side, but the rear

surround side produces a dynamic sound expansion. This

program is the most suitable for sports programs.

This program gives you long delays between direct sounds

and effect sounds, and extraordinarily spacious feel of a large

stadium.

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively

disco in the heart of a very lively city. The sound is dense and

highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy,

“immediate” sound.

This program is ideally suited for rock music. You will

experience a very dynamic or lively sound field.

This is a small, cozy jazz club with a low ceiling. The sound is

very close and intimate.

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a big church

with a high pointed dome and columns along the sides. This

interior produces very long reverberations.

In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the

main speakers, creating an expansive large hall ambience.

LEARNING NEW CONTROL FUNCTIONS (When the lid is open)

This is a learning remote control transmitter. The shaded keys in the illustration shown below can be programmed to “learn”

control functions from other remote control transmitters. By learning key-functions from other remote control transmitter, this unit can

then be used in place of one or more other remote control transmitters, thus making operation of your various audio and video

components more convenient.

Some of the “learning-capable” keys are originally empty and others have already been preset with functions to control this unit and

other Yamaha components. You can store new functions to them (in place of preset functions) as desired.

* See page 50 for the learning method.

* See page 52 for clearing a learned function (or all learned functions).

Note

If the memory capacity of the remote control transmitter becomes full, no further learning is possible even if some learning-capable

keys are not occupied with new functions. If, for example, you store Yamaha codes only into this remote control transmitter, up to

about 20 functions can be stored. Store new functions to the learnable-capable keys which are useful for you.

Keys which can have three functions (1, 2, 3, 4)

In the “Learning-capable” keys, the keys numbered 1–4 in the

illustration at left can have three functions. This is because they

have three memory areas (A, B and C). (One function per area.)

You can store new functions into the area B and C, and use three

functions on a key by switching the memory areas with the A/B/C

switch. (Area A cannot learn a new function.)

To use these keys:

1. Before using a key, select the area A, B or C of the key on which

the function you want to use is stored by using the A/B/C switch.

2. Press the key.

The original factory settings of these keys are as follows.

When the lid is closed, the OPERATION CONTROL keys

substitute for the keys numbered

1, 2, 3 and the (+10)

key on the left illustration. To use these keys, you do not have

to switch the A/B/C switch. The functions which the

OPERATION CONTROL keys carry out are determined by

which input selector key was pressed before using the

OPERATION CONTROL keys.

Note

When the lid is closed, the EFFECT, MASTER VOLUME,

MUTE, TV and VCR keys will function in the same way as

when the lid is open.

* If the MACRO switch on the side of the remote control

transmitter is set to “OFF”, when the lid is closed, the

Notes

• If the OPERATION CONTROL keys substitute for keys

which has no function (empty), no command is carried out.

According to your plan, store functions from other remote

control transmitters into an empty area of those keys. (Refer

to page 50 for the learning method.)

• While playing an audio/video unit, if you want to operate

another unit by using the remote control transmitter (for

example, if you want to rewind a tape on your VCR while

listening to a CD), you should open the lid of the remote

control transmitter and use the A/B/C switch and the

corresponding keys.

(If you press an input selector key with the lid closed to

change the functions of the OPERATION CONTROL keys to

the functions for controlling a VCR, the input of currently

playing CD source is canceled.)

See the table below for a combination of an input selector key and key functions which the OPERATION CONTROL keys carry out.

(Also, refer to the table on page 45.)

Pressing the “V-AUX” or “PHONO” input selector key has no effect on the OPERATION CONTROL keys.

MACRO OPERATIONS (When the lid is closed)

“Macro” is a command which defines a sequence of several

operations.

The keys shown in the illustrations below (as preset macro

keys) are also preset with macros, in addition to individual

functions.

Each macro key is preset so that simply pressing it alone will

carry out several functions of other keys on this remote control

transmitter sequentially. (To know what key functions are

sequentially carried out by pressing each preset macro key,

see the next page.)

Macros can be used only when the lid is closed and the

MACRO switch is set to “SLOW” or “QUICK”. (If “OFF” is

selected, no macro will function even if the lid is closed.)

Preset macro keys are originally preset with macros. If you

prefer, however, you can change the contents of a macro key

by storing a desired series of functions on it. You can store up

to seven functions onto a macro key. (Refer to page 51 for the

learning method.)

Setting the MACRO switch

OFF: In this position, no macro will function even if the lid of

remote control transmitter is closed.

QUICK: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each

command is transmitted at 0.5 second intervals.

SLOW: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each

command is transmitted at 3 second intervals.

Preset macro keys and the key functions which they carry out sequentially are as follows. (Also, refer to the table on page 45.)

Notes

• A key in which no function is stored will carry out no

command.

• If it occurs that this unit will not receive the second command

because the internal operation of the first command takes a

long time, set the MACRO switch to the “SLOW” position, or

add no function or repeat the same command between the

first command and the next command.

• If you will program the power on/off switching function of TV,

VCR, etc. as part of a macro sequence, note that it switches

the current mode to the other (“on” to “off”, or “off” to “on”).

For example, when you press the macro key, if the power of

TV, VCR, etc. is already on, the power will be turned off

even though you may not want it to do so.

• Once you press a macro key, this unit will not receive the

command of another key (even if it is pressed) until this unit

finishes carrying out all commands of the macro key. Take

notice of this especially when the MACRO switch is in the

“SLOW” position.

• Once you press a macro key, you must keep the remote

control transmitter directed at the main unit’s remote control

sensor until the remote control transmitter finishes

transmitting all command signals of the macro key.

• You can use the OPERATION CONTROL keys also while

using the macro functions.

LEARNING A NEW FUNCTION

1 Place this remote control transmitter and the other

remote control transmitter so that they face each other.

* If there is no operation for about 30 seconds after the

LEARN button is pressed, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator

flashes rapidly and the current mode is canceled. If this

occurs, repeat this step.

3 If necessary, select the memory area by using the A/B/C

switch on the side panel of the remote control

transmitter.

4 Press the key on this remote control transmitter in which

you will store a new function.

* If a key which cannot learn another function is pressed, the

TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the current

mode is canceled. If this occurs, repeat this step.

* If there is no operation for about 30 seconds after a key is

pressed, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly

and the mode before you began learning operations is

restored. If this occurs, restart from step 2.

5 Press and hold the key (on the other remote control

transmitter) which has the function you want to store.

When learning is finished, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator

stops lighting. You can release the key. Then the indicator

begins flashing slowly.

* If a signal is not successfully received, the

TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode

prior to step 4 is restored. If this occurs, restart from step 4.

* If memory capacity is full, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator

flashes rapidly to show you that learning is impossible, and

then the mode before you began learning operations is

restored.

6 Repeat step 3–5 to store more functions.

7 When you finish the learning operation, press the

LEARN button.

Notes

●

Newly learned functions will replace previously learned

functions.

●

If there is no more room in the memory area for a function to

be learned, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator will flash

rapidly. In this case, even if some keys are not occupied

with functions from other remote control transmitters, no

further learning is possible.

●

If the lid is closed while learning and about 5 seconds pass,

the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the

mode before you began learning operations is restored. If

this occurs, restart from step 2. However, if the lid is opened

within 5 seconds, the mode before the lid was closed is

restored.

●

There may occasionally be instances in which, due to the

signal-coding and modulation employed by the other remote

control transmitter, this remote control transmitter will not be

able to “learn” its signals.

* If about 30 seconds pass before a key is pressed, the

TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode

before you began learning operations is restored. If this

occurs, restart from step 1.

4 Repeat step 3 to store the second, the third and more

functions. You can store up to seven key functions in

series as a macro.

* If the seventh key function has been learned, the

TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode

before you began learning operations is restored. (This

shows that the key has completed learning a series of

functions as a macro.) If this occurs, you do not have to

follow the next step.

5 When you finish learning, press the MACRO button.

MAKING A NEW MACRO

A new macro can be programmed onto any preset macro key in place of preset functions. (See page 48 to know what keys are

preset macro keys.) You can make as many as 13 new macro keys. A macro key can learn as many as seven functions of other

keys.

Note

If you store a continuous command such as lowering of volume level, it will become a short command when it is carried out as a part

of macro.

LEARNCLEAR MACRO

It is recommended to write down new key functions you

stored on the provided user function stickers and paste

them on the reverse side of the remote control transmitter

or the reverse side of the remote control transmitter’s lid.

Memory back-up

All of the learned functions will be retained while you

replace the batteries. However, if no batteries are

installed for a few hours, the learned functions will be

erased and will have to be learned again.

The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your listening room. This unit has a total of 10 digital sound field processor (DSP) modes. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field (this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments. In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder and Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video sources. The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP program including combined operations of the Yamaha DSP and the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder. Digital Sound Field Processing What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to the sound of a live performance, but chances are you’ll still notice something missing, the acoustic environment of the live concert hall. Extensive research into the exact nature of the sonic reflections that create the ambience of a large hall has made it possible for Yamaha engineers to bring you this same sound in your own listening room, so you’ll feel all the sound of a live concert. Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated measuring equipment, have even made it possible to capture the acoustics of a variety of actual concert halls, jazz clubs, theaters, etc. from around the world, to allow you to accurately recreate any one of these live performance environments, all in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic Surround This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel (used for dialog), and the rear surround sound channels (used for sound effects, background noise, and other ambient noises). The center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from the action on the screen while experiencing good stereo imaging. Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of pre-recorded video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable broadcasts. When you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder decodes the signal and distributes the surround-sound effects. This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital signal processing system. This system improves the stability of sound at each channel and crosstalk between channels, so that positioning of sounds around the room is more accurate compared with conventional analog signal processing systems. In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance control. This always assures you the best performance without manual adjustment. Dolby Digital (AC-3) The built-in Dolby Digital (AC-3) Decoder leads you into a totally new sound experiences. Dolby Digital (AC-3) is a new generation of multi-channel digital audio technology, or the newest spatial sound processing format developed for 35 mm film-movies by employing a new kind of low bit-rate audio coding. Dolby Digital (AC-3) is a digital surround sound system that provides completely independent multi-channel audio to consumers. In multi-channel form, Dolby Digital (AC-3) provides five full range channels in what is sometimes referred to as a “3/2” configuration: three front channels (left, center and right), plus 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 channel is counted as 0.1, thus giving rise to the term 5.1 channels in total. 6 Compared to Dolby Pro Logic that is referred to a “3/1” system (left front, center, right front and just one surround channel), Dolby Digital (AC-3) features two surround channels, called stereo or split surrounds, each offering the same full range fidelity as the three front channels. Sound of wide dynamic range reproduced by the five full range channels presents listeners much excitement that has never been experienced before. Precise sound orientation by the discrete digital sound processing expands realism that the original movie possesses. Laser Disc and DVD are home audio formats that could benefit from Dolby Digital (AC-3). In the near future, Dolby Digital (AC3) will also be applied to DBS, CATV and HDTV. The ongoing release of Dolby Stereo Digital theatrical films now underway will provide an immediate source of Dolby Digital (AC-3) encoded video software.

All rights reserved. ● ● ● English The following original functions make the surround-sound effect of Dolby Digital (AC-3) become the most suitable for your audio system and the listening conditions. Dynamic range (sound scale) of source can be changed so that it will be suitable for the listening conditions. Output of low bass from any channel can be assigned to either the MAIN SPEAKERS terminals or SUBWOOFER terminal to maximize system performance. Output of LFE can be assigned to either the MAIN SPEAKERS terminals or SUBWOOFER terminal to maximize system performance. Dolby Surround + DSP (CINEMA DSP) Dolby Surround sound system shows its full ability in a large movie theater, because movie sounds are originally designed to be reproduced in a large movie theater using many speakers. It is difficult to create a sound environment similar to that of a movie theater in your listening room, because the room size, materials of inside walls, the number of speakers, etc. of your listening room is much different from those of a movie theater. Yamaha DSP technology made it possible to present you with nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in your listening room by compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your listening room with its original digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround sound field. CINEMA DSP The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those programs are created by the combination of Dolby Surround and YAMAHA DSP technology. Dolby Pro Logic + 2 Digital Sound Fields Dolby Digital (AC-3) + 3 Digital Sound Fields Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the rear surround side of the Dolby Pro Logic Surrounddecoded sound field respectively. They create a wide acoustic environment and emphasize surround-effect in the room, letting you feel much presence as if you are watching a movie in a popular Dolby Stereo theater. Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the independent left and right surround sides of the Dolby Digital (AC-3)-decoded sound field respectively. They create a wide acoustic environment and much surround effect in the room without losing high channel separation. With wide dynamic range of Dolby Digital (AC-3) sound, this sound field combination lets you feel as if you are watching a movie in the newest Dolby Stereo Digital theater. This will be the most ideal home theater sound at the present time. This combination is available when the sound field program No. 2, No. 3 or No. 4 is selected, and the input signal of source is analog, PCM audio or encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) in 2-channels. This combination is available when the sound field program No. 2, No. 3 or No. 4 is selected, and the input signal of source is encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) (except in 2-channels). 7 SPEAKER SETUP SPEAKERS TO BE USED This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5 speaker configuration, using main speakers, rear speakers and a center speaker. 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. Use of a subwoofer expands your sound field It is also possible to further expand your system with the addition of a subwoofer and amplifier. 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) sound with high fidelity when playing back a source with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded. You may wish to choose the convenience of a Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, which has its own built-in power amplifier. The main speakers should be high performance models and have enough power handling capacity to accept the maximum output of your audio system. 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 in full range for the center speaker and the rear speakers. SPEAKER CONFIGURATION 5-Speaker Configuration 4-Speaker Configuration This configuration is the most effective and recommended one. When playing back a source using the DSP program, DIGITAL (PRO LOGIC), DIGITAL (PRO LOGIC) ENHANCED, DIGITAL (70 mm) MOVIE THEATER or TV SPORTS, or when playing back a source which contains center-channel signals (dialog, vocals, etc.) using any DSP program with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded, conversations will be output from the center speaker and the ambience will be excellent. Note: Set the CENTER SPEAKER mode to the “NORMAL” or “WIDE” position. (For details, refer to page 22.) The center speaker is not used in this configuration.

If your DVD (LD) player, TV/satellite tuner, etc. are equipped with coaxial or optical digital audio signal output terminals, they can be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL digital signal input terminals. To make a connection between optical digital audio signal terminals, remove the cover from each terminal, and then connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber cable that conforms to EIAJ standards. Other cables might not function correctly. Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) terminal of this unit, you must keep the unit connected with the same named analog audio signal terminals of this unit, because digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck or VCR connected to this unit. You can switch the selection of input signals between “digital” and “analog” easily. (See page 29 for details.)

If you will do so, connect it to the COAXIAL digital signal input terminal of this unit, and connect the RF demodulator to the OPTICAL digital signal input terminal of this unit. By this connection, if the input mode of the DVD/LD source is in “AUTO”, you can enjoy listening to sounds with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded when you play a disc encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) though signals are input to both OPTICAL and COAXIAL digital signal input terminals of this unit simultaneously (because signals input to the OPTICAL terminal take priority of signals input to the COAXIAL terminal). See page 29 for details about switching the input mode. If your LD player has AC-3 RF signal output terminal and no digital signal output terminal for AC-3 discrete audio signals, connect the AC-3 RF signal output terminal to this unit’s OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) digital signal input terminal by using an RF demodulator (separate purchase). First, connect the AC-3 RF signal output terminal of the LD player to the AC-3 RF signal input terminal of the RF demodulator. Next, connect the optical (or coaxial) digital signal output terminal of the RF demodulator to the OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) digital signal input terminal of this unit. This connection is necessary for sending audio signals encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) from the LD player to this unit. It is also necessary to connect the LD player to this unit’s analog audio signal input terminals regardless of the AC-3 RF signal connection, for playing back an LD source with the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoded or in normal stereo (or monaural).

If you do so, when you play a disc encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3), the Dolby Digital (AC-3) will not be decoded because the 2channel audio signals input to this unit’s OPTICAL digital input terminal are selected prior to the signals encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) input to this unit’s COAXIAL digital input terminal by way of an RF demodulator. ● ● If, for example, you play a CD on the LD player (which can play a CD also), there is no input to the OPTICAL terminal, so the signals input to the COAXIAL terminal take priority. In this case, switch off the RF demodulator to listen to CD sound surely. However, if your RF demodulator is the Yamaha model APD-1, you do not have to switch it off. When you want to play a source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) without decoding the Dolby Digital (AC-3), you must switch off the power to the RF demodulator. 13 n CONNECTING TO S VIDEO SIGNAL TERMINALS VIDEO IN ON SCREEN SELECTOR 1 2 PAL NTSC S VIDEO VIDEO * VCR IN OUT MONITOR OUT S VIDEO IN MONITOR OUT (General model) VIDEO SIGNAL DVD/LD TV/DBS VCR IN OUT VIDEO IN S VIDEO SIGNAL VIDEO OUT * S VIDEO OUT Note If video signals are sent to both S VIDEO SIGNAL input and composite input terminals, the signals will be sent to their respective output terminals.

When this adjustment is performed, the sound output level heard at the listening position will be the same from each speaker. This is important for the best performance of the digital sound field processor, the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder and the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder. The adjustment of each speaker output level should be done at your listening position with the remote control transmitter. Otherwise, the result may not be satisfactory.

CENTER DELAY (Adjusting the delay of center sounds (dialog etc.)) Dolby Digital (AC-3) technology also made it possible to reduce an original sound track’s dynamic range for a home audio format by “compressing” the data of sound. In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) is reproduced in the “compressed” dynamic range of the source suitable for low level listening. In this position, dynamic range is more reduced than in the STD position. Selecting this position will be effective when you must listen to a source in extremely low level. Control range: 0 ms to 5 ms (in 1 ms step) Preset value: 0 ms * This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital (AC-3) is decoded and the signals of selected source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) contain centerchannel signals. MIN: Adjusts the delay between the main sounds (at the main channels) and dialog etc. (at the center channel). The larger the value, the later the dialog etc. is generated. This is for making sounds from the left main, center and right main speakers reach your listening position at the same time 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 left or right main speaker to your listening position. 2. DYNAMIC RANGE (Adjusting dynamic range) Choices: MAX/STD/MIN Preset position: MAX * 3. LFE LEVEL (Adjusting the output level at the LFE (low frequency effect) channel) Control range: –14 dB to 0 dB (in 2 dB step) Preset value: 0 dB * This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital (AC3) is decoded and the signals of selected source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) contain LFE signals. Adjusts the output level at the LFE (low frequency effect) channel. If the LFE signals are mixed with signals at other channels to output them from the same speakers, the ratio of LFE signal level to the level of other signals are adjusted. (See page 6 for details about the LFE channel.) This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital (AC-3) is 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 very wide dynamic range. Dolby Digital (AC-3) technology can bring the original sound track into a home audio format with this wide dynamic range unchanged. In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) is reproduced in the original sound track’s wide dynamic range providing you with powerful sounds like a movie theater. Selecting this position will be more ideal if you can listen to a source in a high output level in a room specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment. STD (Standard): Powerful sounds of extremely wide dynamic range are not always suitable for home use. Depending upon the condition of your listening environment, it may not be possible to increase the sound output level as high as a movie theater. However, in a level suitable for listening to in your room, the low level parts of source sound cannot be heard well because they will be lost among noises in your environment. 4. 5. 6. 7.

(Once you have selected proper modes, you do not have to make a setting change until any alteration is made in your speaker system.) 8. TV/DBS INPUT (Selecting the initial input mode of the sources connected to the TV/DBS input terminals) For the sources connected to the TV/DBS input terminals of this unit only, you can designate the input mode that is automatically selected when the power of this unit is switched on. AUTO: LAST: * In this position, the AUTO input mode is always selected when the power of this unit is switched on. In this position, the input mode you have selected last time is memorized and will not be changed even if the power of this unit is switched on.

The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your listening room. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments. In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder and a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The operation of these decoders can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP program including a combined operation of the YAMAHA DSP and the Dolby Digital (AC-3) or the Dolby Pro Logic Surround. For details about digital sound field programs, see page 40 to 41.

However, if the power cord is kept disconnected for more than one week, these values will be automatically changed back to the original factory settings. 39 BRIEF OVERVIEW OF DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments. The data for these sound fields was recorded at actual locations using sophisticated sound field measurement equipment. Note The channel level balance between the left and right rear effect speakers may vary depending on the sound field you are listening to. This is due to the fact that most of these sound field recreations are actual acoustic environments.

The built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder or Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder precisely reproduces sounds and sound effects of a source encoded with Dolby Surround. The realization of a highly efficient decoding process improves crosstalk and channel separation and makes sound positioning smoother and more precise. Reproduces video discs, video tapes and similar sources which are Dolby Surround encoded and bear the “DOLBY SURROUND” logo. This program ideally simulates the multi-surround speaker systems of the 35 mm film theater. The Dolby Surround decoding and the digital sound field processing is precisely performed without altering the originally designed sound orientation. The surround effects produced by this sound field folds the viewer naturally from the rear to the left and right and toward the screen. Note: If the main channel sound is considerably altered by overadjustment of the BASS or TREBLE controls, the relationship with the rear channels may produce an unnatural effect. Ideal for reproducing video discs, video tapes and similar sources which are Dolby Surround encoded and bear the “DOLBY SURROUND” logo. This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of the newest 70 mm/Dolby Digital multi-track 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. The three dimensional feeling of the sound field is emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on the screen. You can enjoy watching Sci-Fi, adventure movies, etc. with much presence. 4 PROGRAM FEATURE TV SPORTS When the input signal is analog or PCM audio: ( Speaker output: main, center, rear When the input signal is Dolby Digital: ( Speaker output: main, center, rear 5 DIGITAL When the input signal is Dolby Digital: ( Speaker output: main, center, rear DIGITAL When the input signal is Dolby Digital: ( Speaker output: main, center, rear DIGITAL When the input signal is Dolby Digital: ( Speaker output: main, center, rear DIGITAL When the input signal is Dolby Digital: ( Speaker output: main, center, rear DIGITAL ) DSP ) DSP This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a very lively city.

The shaded keys in the illustration shown below can be programmed to “learn” control functions from other remote control transmitters. By learning key-functions from other remote control transmitter, this unit can then be used in place of one or more other remote control transmitters, thus making operation of your various audio and video components more convenient. Some of the “learning-capable” keys are originally empty and others have already been preset with functions to control this unit and other Yamaha components. You can store new functions to them (in place of preset functions) as desired. * See page 50 for the learning method. * See page 52 for clearing a learned function (or all learned functions). Note If the memory capacity of the remote control transmitter becomes full, no further learning is possible even if some learning-capable keys are not occupied with new functions. If, for example, you store Yamaha codes only into this remote control transmitter, up to about 20 functions can be stored. Store new functions to the learnable-capable keys which are useful for you. Keys which can have three functions (1, 2, 3, 4) * In the “Learning-capable” keys, the keys numbered 1–4 in the illustration at left can have three functions. This is because they have three memory areas (A, B and C). (One function per area.) You can store new functions into the area B and C, and use three functions on a key by switching the memory areas with the A/B/C switch. (Area A cannot learn a new function.) 1 TRANSMIT /LEARN CLEAR LEARN MACRO REC/PAUSE A/B TAPE To use these keys: 1.

Notes • If the OPERATION CONTROL keys substitute for keys which has no function (empty), no command is carried out. According to your plan, store functions from other remote control transmitters into an empty area of those keys. (Refer to page 50 for the learning method.) • While playing an audio/video unit, if you want to operate another unit by using the remote control transmitter (for example, if you want to rewind a tape on your VCR while listening to a CD), you should open the lid of the remote control transmitter and use the A/B/C switch and the corresponding keys. (If you press an input selector key with the lid closed to change the functions of the OPERATION CONTROL keys to the functions for controlling a VCR, the input of currently playing CD source is canceled.) 47 MACRO OPERATIONS (When the lid is closed) Preset macro keys are originally preset with macros. If you prefer, however, you can change the contents of a macro key by storing a desired series of functions on it. You can store up to seven functions onto a macro key. (Refer to page 51 for the learning method.) “Macro” is a command which defines a sequence of several operations. The keys shown in the illustrations below (as preset macro keys) are also preset with macros, in addition to individual functions. Each macro key is preset so that simply pressing it alone will carry out several functions of other keys on this remote control transmitter sequentially. (To know what key functions are sequentially carried out by pressing each preset macro key, see the next page.) Macros can be used only when the lid is closed and the MACRO switch is set to “SLOW” or “QUICK”. (If “OFF” is selected, no macro will function even if the lid is closed.) Setting the MACRO switch OFF: In this position, no macro will function even if the lid of remote control transmitter is closed.

For example, when you press the macro key, if the power of TV, VCR, etc. is already on, the power will be turned off even though you may not want it to do so. • – STANDBY • • • Once you press a macro key, this unit will not receive the command of another key (even if it is pressed) until this unit finishes carrying out all commands of the macro key. Take notice of this especially when the MACRO switch is in the “SLOW” position. Once you press a macro key, you must keep the remote control transmitter directed at the main unit’s remote control sensor until the remote control transmitter finishes transmitting all command signals of the macro key. You can use the OPERATION CONTROL keys also while using the macro functions. 49 LEARNING A NEW FUNCTION 1 Place this remote control transmitter and the other remote control transmitter so that they face each other. 5 Press and hold the key (on the other remote control transmitter) which has the function you want to store.

In this case, even if some keys are not occupied with functions from other remote control transmitters, no further learning is possible. ● If the lid is closed while learning and about 5 seconds pass, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode before you began learning operations is restored. If this occurs, restart from step 2. However, if the lid is opened within 5 seconds, the mode before the lid was closed is restored. ● There may occasionally be instances in which, due to the signal-coding and modulation employed by the other remote control transmitter, this remote control transmitter will not be able to “learn” its signals. English MAKING A NEW MACRO A new macro can be programmed onto any preset macro key in place of preset functions. (See page 48 to know what keys are preset macro keys.) You can make as many as 13 new macro keys. A macro key can learn as many as seven functions of other keys. Note If you store a continuous command such as lowering of volume level, it will become a short command when it is carried out as a part of macro. 1 4 TRANSMIT /LEARN CLEAR LEARN MACRO Flashes slowly. * If there is no operation for about 30 seconds after the MACRO button is pressed, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode before you pressed the MACRO button is restored. If this occurs, press the MACRO button again. 2 * If the seventh key function has been learned, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode before you began learning operations is restored. (This shows that the key has completed learning a series of functions as a macro.) If this occurs, you do not have to follow the next step. 5 When you finish learning, press the MACRO button.

Replace the batteries (and press the RESET button for this remote control transmitter). Place the remote control transmitters with the proper distance. Learning is not possible. Further learning is not possible without deleting unnecessary commands. Press the RESET button on the remote control transmitter. If the unit fails to operate normally, check the following points to determine whether the fault can be corrected by the simple measures suggested. If it cannot be corrected, or if the fault is not listed in the SYMPTOM column, disconnect the power cord and contact your authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center for help. Amplifier SYMPTOM CAUSE REMEDY The unit fails to turn on when the STANDBY/ON switch is pressed, or turns into the standby mode suddenly soon after the power is turned on. Power cord is not plugged in or is not completely inserted. Firmly plug in the power cord. The IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch on the rear panel is not set to the upper or the lower end closely. Set the switch to the upper or the lower end closely. It happens that this unit does not work normally. There is an influence of strong external noise (lightning, excessive static electricity, etc.) or a misoperation on this unit while using this unit. Turn this unit into the standby mode and disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet. After about 30 seconds have passed, connect the power and operate this unit again. No sound or no picture. Incorrect output cord connections. Connect the cords properly. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. Appropriate input source is not selected. Select an appropriate input source with the input selector buttons. The SPEAKERS switches are not set properly. Set the SPEAKERS switch which corresponds to the speakers to be used to the ON position. Speaker connections are not secure. Secure the connections. No picture There is no S video terminal connection between this unit and the TV, though S video signals are input to this unit. Connect this unit’s S VIDEO MONITOR OUT terminal to the TV’s S video input terminal. The sound suddenly goes off. The protection circuit has been activated because of short circuit etc. Turning the unit into the standby mode and then on will reset the protection circuit. The SLEEP timer has functioned. Cancel the SLEEP timer function. Only one side speaker outputs the sound. Incorrect setting of the BALANCE control. Adjust it to the appropriate position. Incorrect cord connections. Connect the cords properly. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. Sound “hums”. Incorrect cord connections. Firmly connect the audio plugs. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. No connection from the turntable to the GND terminal. Make the GND connection between the turntable and this unit. The volume level is low while playing a record. The record is being played on a turntable with an MC cartridge. The player should be connected to the unit through the MC head amplifier. The volume level cannot be increased, or sound is distorted. The component connected to the REC OUT terminals of this unit is in the standby mode. Turn the power to the component on. No sound from the rear speakers. The sound output level to the rear speakers is set to minimum. Raise the sound output level to the rear speakers. The monaural sound source is played in DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED mode. Select another program suitable for the monaural sound source. The sound output level to the center speaker is set to minimum. Raise the sound output level to the center speaker. The center channel mode is in PHANTOM mode. Select NORMAL or WIDE. Incorrect sound field program selection. Select the appropriate program. No sound from the center speaker. English TROUBLESHOOTING 53 CAUSE REMEDY FM stereo reception is noisy. Because of the characteristics of FM stereo broadcasts, this is limited to cases where the transmitter is too far away or the antenna input is poor. Check the antenna connections. Try using a high quality directional FM antenna. Set the TUNING MODE button to the manual tuning mode. There is distortion and clear reception cannot be obtained even with a good FM antenna. There is multipath interference. Adjust antenna placement to eliminate multipath interference. A desired station cannot be tuned in with the automatic tuning method. The station is too weak. Use the manual tuning method. Use a high quality directional FM antenna. Previously preset stations can no longer be tuned in. This unit has been unplugged for a long period. Repeat the presetting procedure. A desired station cannot be tuned in with the automatic tuning method. Weak signal or loose antenna connections. Tighten the AM loop antenna connections and rotate it for best reception. There are continuous crackling and hissing noises. Noises will result from ligtning, fluorescent lamps, motors, thermostats and other electrical equipment. Use an outdoor antenna and a ground wire. This will help somewhat but it is difficult to eliminate all noise. There are buzzing and whining noises (especially in the evening). A television set is being used nearby. Relocate this unit away from the TV. The remote control transmitter does not work. Direct sunlight or lighting (of an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.) is striking the remote control sensor of the main unit. Change the position of the main unit. The batteries of this remote control transmitter are too weak. Replace the batteries with new ones. This unit is in the standby mode. Turn the power to this unit on. FM SYMPTOM Others Remote control transmitter AM Use the manual tuning method. 54 The sound is degraded when listening with the headphones connected to the compact disc player or cassette deck that are connected with this unit.
