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

Copyright 1992 Dolby Laboratories, Inc. All rights reserved.
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

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.

SWFR position is selected on “7. LFE/BASS OUT”).
WIDE: Select this position when your center speaker is
approximately the same size as the main speakers.
PHNTM (Phantom):
Select this position when you do not have a center
speaker. The center channel sound will be output
from the left and right main speakers.
5. REAR SPEAKER
Choices: SMALL/LARGE
Preset position: SMALL
SMALL: Select this position if your rear speakers do not have
a high ability for bass reproduction.
In this position, low bass signals (below 90 Hz) at the
rear channels are output from the SUBWOOFER
OUTPUT terminal (or the main speakers if the MAIN
position is selected on “7. LFE/BASS OUT”).
LARGE: Select this position if your rear speakers have a high
ability for bass reproduction, or a subwoofer is
connected to the rear speaker in parallel.
In this position, full range signals are output from the
rear speakers.
6. MAIN SPEAKER
Choices: SMALL/LARGE
Preset position: LARGE
SMALL: Select this position if your main speakers do not have
a high ability for bass reproduction. However, if your
system does not include a subwoofer, do not select
this position.
In this position, low bass signals (below 90 Hz) at the
main channels are output from the SUBWOOFER
OUTPUT terminal (if the SWFR or BOTH position is
selected on “7. LFE/BASS OUT”).
LARGE: Select this position if your main speakers have a high
ability for bass reproduction.
In this position, full range signals present at the main
channels are output from the main speakers.
7. LFE/BASS OUT
Choices: MAIN/SWFR/BOTH
Preset position: SWFR
MAIN: Select this position if your system does not include a
subwoofer.
In this position, full range signals present at the main
channels, signals from the LFE channel and other
low bass signals that are selected on “4. CENTER
SPEAKER” to “6. MAIN SPEAKER” to be distributed
from other channels are output from the main
speakers.
SWFR/BOTH:
Select either the SWFR or BOTH position if your
system includes a subwoofer.
In either position, signals at LFE channel and other
low bass signals that are selected on “4. CENTER
SPEAKER” to “6. MAIN SPEAKER” to be distributed

This procedure lets you adjust the sound output level balance between the main, center, and rear speakers using the built-in test
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.
Note: Be sure to use the remote control transmitter with the lid open.

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

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.

1. Digital input signal from the COAXIAL terminal
2. Analog input signal
ANALOG:
In this mode, only analog input signal is selected
even though digital signal is input at the same time.
Select this mode when you want to use the analog
input signal instead of the digital input signal.
Notes on input mode selection
●
To play back a source with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded,
set the input mode to “AUTO”.
●
For the TV/DBS source only, the input mode selected on the
function “8. TV/DBS INPUT” in the SET MENU mode is
selected when you turn on the power of this unit.

BALANCE controls and the BASS EXTENSION switch
have no effect on the material being recorded.
●
Composite video and S video signals pass independently
through this unit’s video circuits. Therefore, when recording or
dubbing video signals, if your video source unit is connected
to provide only a S video (or only a composite video) signal,
you can record only a S video (or only a composite video)
signal on your VCR.
●
A source that is connected to this unit between digital
terminals only cannot be recorded by a tape deck or VCR
connected to this unit.
●
Please check the copyright laws in your country to record
from records, compact discs, radio, etc. Recording of
copyright material may infringe copyright laws.
If you watch a video software that uses scramble or
encoded signals to prevent it from being dubbed, there
may be a case that display information superimposed on
the picture and/or the picture itself is disturbed due to
those signals.

Selecting the SPEAKER system
Because one or two speaker systems (as main speakers) can
be connected to this unit, the SPEAKERS switches allow you
to select speaker system A or B, or both at once.
Adjusting the BALANCE control
Adjust the balance of the output volume to the left and right
speakers to compensate for sound imbalance caused by
speaker location or listening room conditions.
Note
This control is effective only for the sound from the main
speakers.
Adjusting the BASS and TREBLE
controls
BASS : Turn this clockwise to increase (or counter-
clockwise to decrease) the low frequency
response.
TREBLE : Turn this clockwise to increase (or counter-
clockwise to decrease) the high frequency
response.
Note
These controls are effective only for the sound from the main
speakers.
Using the BASS EXTENSION switch
You can boost bass frequency response by setting this switch
to the “ON” position. This switch is effective only on the sound
from the main speakers.
Using the TONE BYPASS switch
Press this switch inward (ON) if you want to listen to pure
source sound. The input signal does not pass through the tone
(BASS and TREBLE) control circuitry so that it is unaffected by
the tone control circuitry. Press this switch to release it outward
(OFF) to use the tone control circuitry.

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).

memorized even when this unit is in the standby mode.
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.
Adjusting delay time
You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of
the sound from the main speakers and the beginning of the
effect sound from the rear or front effect speakers.
The larger the value, the later the effect sound is generated.
This adjustment can be made to all programs individually.

Notes
●
Output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted when
the program STADIUM, DISCO, ROCK CONCERT, JAZZ
CLUB, CHURCH or CONCERT HALL is selected, and the
input signal is analog, PCM audio or encoded with the
Dolby Digital (AC-3) in 2-channels.
●
If the function “4. CENTER SPEAKER” in the SET MENU
mode is set in the “PHNTM (phantom)” position, 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.
●
Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the
same in all the 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.
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
41
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.
Orchestra and opera music are suited for this sound field.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. 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.) Front Main L Center FrontRR Main Front Main L Dialogue Dialogue Surround sound Rear L 8 Main FrontRR Rear R Surround sound Rear L Rear R 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.

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.

There is no connection to these terminals when you use the built-in amplifier. However, if you drive rear speakers with an external stereo power amplifier, connect the input terminals of the external amplifier (MAIN IN or AUX terminals of a power amplifier or an integrated amplifier) to these terminals. MAIN OUTPUT terminals These terminals are for main channel line output. There is no connection to these terminals when you use the built-in amplifier. However, if you drive main speakers with an external stereo power amplifier, connect the input terminals of the external amplifier (MAIN IN or AUX terminals of a power amplifier or an integrated amplifier) to these terminals. * Output signals from the MAIN OUTPUT terminals are affected by the use of BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE controls and BASS EXTENSION switch. CENTER OUTPUT terminal This terminal is for center channel line output. There is no connection to this terminal when you use the built-in amplifier. However, if you drive a center speaker with an external power amplifier, connect the input terminal of the external amplifier to this terminal. SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal This terminal is for connecting with the input terminal of an amplifier for driving a subwoofer. When the input signals to this unit are in normal 2-channel stereo, this terminal outputs only frequencies below 150 Hz (200 Hz for General model only) from the main and center channels. When discrete signals are input to this unit and are selected as the input source, this terminal outputs signals from the subwoofer channel. Note Output level of signals from all of these terminals are adjusted by the use of VOLUME control on the front panel or MASTER VOLUME keys on the remote control transmitter. n IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch Be sure to switch this only when the power to this unit is not on.

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.

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.

For details, refer to page 50 to 52 . These are empty keys. Each key can learn a function from another remote control transmitter. For example, the TV key is useful for storing the function of your TV’s power switch, and the VCR key can be used for your VCR’s power switch. 45 Note If a key which has a preset function learns a new function, the preset function will not be deleted, but disabled. When the learned function is cleared, the preset function is restored. (For information on clearing a learned function, refer to page 52.) About the marks shown on the remote control transmitter The marks on the remote control transmitter signify functions of keys, input sources, etc. Examples) (tape): (disc): (radio wave): Tape deck, VCR, etc. CD player, LD player, etc. Tuner, TV/BS tuner, etc. These marks are helpful for storing new functions. Examples) • The area B of keys 1 is suitable for storing functions to control your VCR. • The area B of keys 3 is suitable for storing functions to control your TV/BS tuner. USING OPERATION CONTROL KEYS (When the lid is closed) When the lid of the remote control transmitter is closed, you can easily operate Yamaha components including learned functions by using the OPERATION CONTROL keys.

Examples of operations controlled by using the OPERATION CONTROL keys English 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. To operate a Yamaha CD player 1. Press the “CD” input selector key. 2. Use the OPERATION CONTROL keys. (They carry out the functions in area A of keys 2.) OPERATION CONTROL Play Skip to previous track Skip to next track Pause or Stop To operate your VCR 1. Press the “VCR” input selector key. 2. Use the OPERATION CONTROL keys.

Notes • If the OPERATION CONTROL keys substitute for keys which has no function (empty), no command is carried out. According to your plan, store functions from other remote control transmitters into an empty area of those keys. (Refer to page 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. QUICK: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each command is transmitted at 0.5 second intervals. SLOW: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each command is transmitted at 3 second intervals.

For example, when you press the macro key, if the power of TV, VCR, etc. is already on, the power will be turned off even though you may not want it to do so. • – 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.

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.
