PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
■ Do not connect audio equipment to the AC outlet on the
rear panel if the equipment requires more power than the
outlet is rated to provide.
■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before
you finish all connections.
■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified
on this unit. Using this unit with a higher voltage than
specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other
types of accidents causing damage. YAMAHA will not be
held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this
unit with a voltage other than specified.
■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on
speaker location and other factors. Care should be taken
to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which
may occur when turning on the unit with the volume control
setting at high, and to continuous high levels of sound.
■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in
an extremely humid environment may cause condensation
inside the cabinet. Condensation can cause the unit to
malfunction.
To eliminate condensation:
•
Pickup
Leave the power on with no disc in the unit until normal
playback is possible (about 1 hour).
•
Remote control
Wipe off condensation on the transmitter window with a
soft cloth before operating the unit.
■ To prevent a malfunction of this unit:
•
Do not use any non standard shaped disc (heart etc.)
available on the market, because it may damage the
unit.
•
Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it,
because damage to the unit may result.
■ To assure the finest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.

hum such as transformers and electric motors.
■ Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat,
possibly causing damage.
■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set,

■ For Singapore model :
The openings on the cabinet assure proper ventilation of
the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the temperature
inside the cabinet will rise rapidly. Therefore, avoid
placing objects against these openings, and install the unit
in well-ventilated condition. Be sure to allow a space of at
least 20 cm behind, 20 cm on the both sides and 30 cm
above the top panel of the unit. Otherwise it may not only
damage the unit, but also cause fire.
■ Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before
starting an audio source play: increase the volume
gradually to an appropriate level after play has started.
■ When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time
(ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the
wall outlet.
■ Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken
so that the grounding or polarization of the unit is not
defeated.
■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires.
When moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and
the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the
wire itself.
■ If an external appliance (TV, radio, etc.) interferes with this
unit’s operation, move this unit away from such an
appliance.
■ Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents;
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

(Recording Your Singing Voice and Karaoke
Effects with the Music Source)
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.
In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance
control. This always assures you the best performance
without manual adjustment.

SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5-speaker configuration: a pair of front speakers, a pair of rear
speakers and a center speaker. You can use one rear speaker only instead of using two rear speakers, and omit the center
speaker. (Refer to the “Speaker configuration” shown below.)
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus the effect sounds. The rear speakers are used for the effect and
surround sounds, and the center speaker is for the center sounds (dialog etc.).

(1)5-Speaker Configuration
This configuration is the most effective and recommended
one. In this configuration, the center speaker is
necessary as well as the rear speakers. If the sound field
program PRO LOGIC or 3 STEREO is selected,
conversations will be output from the center speaker and
the ambience will be excellent.
● Set the center channel mode to the “NORMAL”
position. (For details, refer to page 16.)
(2)4-Speaker Configuration
(without the center speaker)
The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If the
sound field program PRO LOGIC is selected, the
center sound will be output from the left and the right front
speakers, although the program 3 STEREO is
useless in this configuration. However, the sound effect
of other programs can be almost the same as that of the
5-speaker configuration.
● Be sure to set the center channel mode to the
“PHANTOM” position. (For details, refer to page 16.)
Note
As this unit is equipped with a monaural amplifier for the rear
channel, sounds output from the rear speakers are in
monaural. So, you may use one rear speaker only instead of
using two rear speakers.
However, the use of two rear speakers is recommended
when there are more than one listener in the listening room.
When using one rear speaker, place it right behind your
listening position.
Speaker placement
Front speakers: In normal position.
Rear speakers: Behind your listening position, facing
slightly inward. Nearly 1.8 m (approx.
six feet) up from the floor.
Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers.

English
WARNING:
●
Each speaker weighs 0.8 kg (1 lbs. 12 oz.). Do not
mount them on thin plywood or soft wall surface
material, as the screws may come out of the flimsy
surface, causing the speakers to fall down and be
damaged, or result in personal injury.
●
Do not fasten the speakers to wall with nails,
adhesives, or other unsound hardware. Long-term use
and vibrations may cause them to fall down.
●
To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose
speaker cables, fix them to the wall.
To hang in a side long way
Hang the speakers so that each of them faces inside as
figured left.
SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS
■
Mounting the center speaker (NX-C70)

TV or inside the TV rack in a stable position.
When placing the speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the
speaker from falling down, put the provided pads at four
points on bottom of the speaker.
Notes
●
Do not place the speaker on top of the TV whose area
is smaller than the bottom area of the speaker. If
placed, the speaker may drop out causing an injury to
you.
●
Though this speaker is a magnetic shielding type,
there may be some influence on a TV picture
depending on the type of TV or the placement of the
speaker. In such a case, place the speaker apart from
the TV so that there is no influence on TV picture.

rear of this unit.
■ How to Connect:
Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire
of the proper gauge, cut as short as possible. If the
connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the
speakers. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is
correct, that is the + and – markings are observed. If these
wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
Caution
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as
this could damage the amplifier and/or speakers.

DISC CHANGE button without interrupting playback.
However, in this case, pressing the DISC SKIP button or a
DISC selector button is invalid.
Note
You can load or replace discs on the trays when the disc

hidden inside the unit. In doing so, the disc and the unit may
be damaged, because the tray already has a disc, which is
being played back.

more (so that the corresponding disc tray number is
located on the top of the disc indicator).

disc directly, and playback will begin from track 1
automatically
Note
If a Video CD, version 2.0 is selected, “PBC” lights up on the

of the disc and the music calendar will not be displayed. In

The Sound Field Processor built into this unit presents you with the ambience of an actual concert hall etc. by adding effects as
sonic reflections or reberverations that create the sound environment of a hall etc. This unit provides preset sound field programs
shown below. You can enjoy an excellent audio sound field by selecting one of them, and adding desired adjustments.
This unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video
sources. The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding sound field
program.

FEATURE
This program is used for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround.
Sounds are reproduced as movie creaters designed by using five speakers. You can experience the
dramatic realism and impact of a movie theater.
This program is effective not only for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround, but also for
sources not encoded with Dolby Surround or TV programs with 2-channel stereo sound. With this
program, 2-channel stereo sound is converted into 3-channels (left front, center and right front), so the
dialogs are emphasized on the center position by the use of the center speaker. As no sound is output
from the rear speakers, this program is also effective in a simple Audio/Video system without rear
speakers.
In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the front speakers, creating an expansive
large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music is suited for this sound field.
This program simulates the sound environment of a big hall with long reverberation time and many
reflections of high frequencies.
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 gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, and extraordinarily
spacious feel of a large stadium.
This program is designed specifically to enhance mono source programs. Compared to a strictly
mono setting, the sound image created in this mode is wider and slightly forward of the speaker pair,
lending an immediacy to the overall sound. It is particularly effective when used with old mono
movies, news broadcasts and dialog.
