CAUTION
CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.
1. To assure the finest performance, please read this
manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future
reference.
2. Install this unit in a cool, dry, clean place — away
from windows, heat sources, sources of excessive
vibration, dust, moisture and cold. Avoid sources of
humming (transformers, motors). To prevent fire or
electrical shock, do not expose the unit to rain or
water.
3. Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the
unit, contact your dealer.
4. Do not use force on switches, controls or connection
wires. When moving the unit, first disconnect the
power cord and then the wires connected to other
component. Never pull the wires themselves.
5. The openings on the cover assure proper ventilation
of the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the
temperature inside the unit will rise rapidly.
Therefore, avoid placing objects against these
openings, and install the unit in a well-ventilated area
to prevent fire and damage.
Be sure to allow a space of at least 20 cm behind,
20 cm on both sides and 30 cm above the top panel
of the unit to prevent fire and damage.
6. The voltage 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 fire or other
accidents. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for
any damage resulting from the use of this unit with a
voltage other than that specified.
7. Digital signals generated by this unit may interfere
with other component such as tuners, receivers and
TVs. Move this unit farther away from such
component if interference is observed.
8. Always set VOLUME to the m position before
starting the audio source play. Increase the volume
gradually to an appropriate level after playback has
been started.
9. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical
solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean,
dry cloth.
10. Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section
regarding common operating errors before
concluding that the unit is faulty.
11. When not planning to use this unit for a long period
of time (e.g., a vacation), disconnect the AC power
cord from the wall outlet.
12. To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC
power cord and disconnect the antenna cable when
there is an electrical storm.
13. Grounding or polarization — Precautions should be
taken so that the grounding or polarization of the unit
is not defeated.
14. AC outlet — Do not connect audio component to the
AC outlet on the rear panel if that component
requires more power than the outlet is rated to
provide.
This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source
as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this
unit itself is turned off. This state is called the standby
mode. In this state, this unit is designed to consume a
very small quantity of power.
For U.K. customers
If the socket outlets in the home are not suitable for the plug
supplied with this appliance, it should be cut off and an
appropriate 3 pin plug fitted. For details, refer to the
instructions described below.
Note
The plug severed from the mains lead must be destroyed, as a
plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged in a live
socket outlet.
Special Instructions for U.K. Model
IMPORTANT
THE WIRES IN MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:
Blue: NEUTRAL
Brown: LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
apparatus may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed
as follows:
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or
coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN
must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter L or coloured RED.
Making sure that neither core is connected to the earth
terminal of the three pin plug.

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

Main speaker (R)
Subwoofer

Rear speaker (R)
1.8 m
Main speakers
Place the right and left main speakers an equal distance
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each
speaker from each side of the TV monitor should be the
same.
Rear speakers
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing
slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) above the
floor.
Center speaker
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face
of your TV monitor. Place the speaker as close to the
monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the
monitor and centrally between the main speakers.
Note
If the center speaker is not used, the sound will be heard from the
right and left main speakers. In that case, “CENTER SP” in the
SET MENU is set to the NONE position. (Refer to page 35 for
details.)
Subwoofer
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low
bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to
place the subwoofer near the main speakers. Turn it slightly
toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reflections.
CAUTION
Some types of speakers interfere with a TV monitor. If
this problem occurs, move the speakers away from the
monitor. If you cannot avoid installing the center speaker
or subwoofer near the TV monitor, use magnetically
shielded speakers.

CONNECTIONS
Before Connecting Components
CAUTION
Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been
completed.
Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Some
components require different connection methods and have different terminal names. Refer to the instructions for each
component to be connected to this unit.
When you connect other YAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or changer), connect
it to the terminals with the same number labels as !, #, $ etc. YAMAHA applies this labeling system to all its products.
Use RCA-type pin plug cables for connecting audio/video components with the exception described later.
The input and output terminals for pin plugs can be distinguished as follows:
Yellow video signals (composite)
White analog audio signals for the left channel
Red analog audio signals for the right channel
coaxial digital signals
After completing all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.

Connecting the Antennas
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal
strength. However, a properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor
reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality.
Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals.
Indoor FM antenna (included)
Firmly insert the connector into the FM ANT terminal. The
indoor FM antenna is only a simple antenna. For reception
with better sound quality, installing the outdoor FM antenna
(commercially available) is recommended.
Note
Do not connect an outdoor FM antenna and the indoor FM
antenna at the same time.
Outdoor FM antenna
You may be unable to obtain good FM radio reception
depending on your local conditions (distance from the
broadcasting station, interposing buildings and
mountains, etc.). Consult your dealer or authorized service
center and be sure to install an antenna that suits your local
conditions.
Install the outdoor FM antenna (commercially available) in
a high place as far away from any roads as possible to avoid
being affected by automobile ignition noise.
Connecting a coaxial cable to the included 75-ohm/300-ohm antenna
adapter (U.K. model only)
1 Open the cover of the included 75-ohm/
300-ohm antenna adapter.
2 Cut the external sleeve of the 75-ohm coaxial
cable and prepare it for connection.

tuner, etc. has coaxial or optical digital signal output
terminals, they can be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL
and/or OPTICAL digital signal input terminals. To make a
connection between the optical digital signal terminals,
remove the cover from each terminal, and then connect
them by using a commercially available optical fiber cable
that conforms to EIA standards. Other cables might not
function correctly.
When making connections between the digital signal
terminals, you should connect the components to the same-
named analog audio signal terminals of this unit, because a
digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck, MD
recorder or VCR connected to this unit.
TV monitor with a 21-pin connector
Make a connection as shown above with a commercially
available SCART-plug connector cable.
Notes
Be sure to attach the covers when the OPTICAL terminals are not
being used in order to protect them from dust.
If your LD player has a Dolby Digital RF signal output terminal,
be sure to use the RF demodulator (separately purchased).
No sound will be heard when connecting your LD players Dolby
Digital RF signal output terminal directly to this unit’s COAXIAL
DVD/LD digital signal input terminal.

source with a Dolby Surround program.
The sound output may be interrupted for some LD and DVD
players in the following situation: The input mode is set to
AUTO. A search is performed while playing the disc encoded
with Dolby Digital, and then disc playing is restored. The sound
output is interrupted for a moment because the digital signal was
selected again.
The input mode cannot be changed for the CD, TUNER, TAPE/
MD, VCR and AUX sources because only analog signals are used
for these.
The current input mode appears on the display when the DVD/
LD, TV/digital TV or satellite tuner source is selected or the input
mode is changed.
Notes on playing an LD source
Some audio/video component, such as LD player, output different
audio signals through their analog and digital terminals. Change
the input mode as necessary.
If the input mode is set to AUTO for the LD source, this unit
automatically determines which type of signal the LD source
contains. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital signal, the decoder
automatically switches to the appropriate setting and reproduces
5.1 channel sound.
If the LD player is transmitting signals by a non-normal method,
this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital signal. In this case, the
decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog.
If the LD source does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect
the LD player to the analog terminals.
While you are operating the LD player, if you switch from the
pause or chapter forwarding function to normal playback, you
may hear the PCM or analog sound an instant before the Dolby
Digital sound is played.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor (DSP). This processor allows you to
electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-
like experience in your listening room. You can create outstanding audio sound by selecting a suitable DSP program (this
will, of course, depend on what you are listening to).
When you select a CINEMA DSP program, one of the built-in decoders (Dobly Pro Logic and Dolby Digital) is turned on
according to which type of signals the source being played contains.
The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that
most of these are precise digital re-creations of actual acoustic environments.

A8. If more than 8 stations have been tuned, they are
stored as preset station numbers in other groups (B, C,
D and E) in that order.
Memory back-up
The memory back-up circuit prevents the stored data
from being lost when this unit is set in the standby mode.
If, however, the power cord is disconnected from the AC
power outlet or the power is cut for more than one week,
the memory will be erased. If so, store the stations again
by using preset tuning methods.

Station” on page 28.
Notes
A new setting can be stored in place of the former one.
You can manually replace a preset station with another FM or AM
station by simply using the manual preset tuning method.
Automatic preset tuning will be performed for all RDS network
stations until all have been stored up to E8. Even if the number of
received stations is not enough to be stored up to E8, automatic
preset tuning is automatically ended after searching for all
stations.
Only RDS stations with sufficient signal strength are stored by
automatic preset tuning. If the station you want to store is weak in
signal strength, tune in to it manually in monaural mode and store
it by using the manual preset tuning method. (There may be a
case that this unit cannot receive a station which could be
received by using the automatic tuning method. This is because
this unit receives a large amount of PI (Program Identification)
data along with the station.)

RECEIVING RDS STATIONS
Radio Data System (RDS) is a data transmission system by
FM stations in many countries. Stations using this system
transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the
normal radio signal.
RDS data contains various information such as PI (Program
Identification), PS (Program Service name), PTY (Program
Type), RT (Radio Text), CT (Clock Time), EON (Enhanced
Other Networks), etc. The RDS function is carried out
among the network stations.
Description of RDS Data
This unit can receive PI, PS, PTY, RT, CT, and EON data
when receiving RDS broadcasting stations.
PS (Program Service name) mode:
The name of the RDS station being received is displayed.
PTY (Program Type) mode:
The program type on the RDS station being received is
displayed. There are 15 program types to classify RDS
stations. You can make this unit search for a station which is
broadcasting a program of the desired type. Refer to page 31
for details.
RT (Radio Text) mode:
Information about the program (such as the title of the song,
name of the singer, etc.) on the RDS station being received
is displayed by a maximum of 64 alphanumeric characters,
including the umlaut symbol. If other characters are used for
RT data, they are displayed with under-bars.
CT (Clock Time) mode:
The current time is displayed and updated every minute. If
the data are accidentally cut off, “CT WAIT” may appear.
EON (Enhanced Other Networks):
Refer to page 32.
Changing the RDS Mode
The four modes are available in this unit for displaying RDS
data. When an RDS station is being received, PS, PTY, RT
and/or CT that correspond to the RDS data services offered
by the station light up on the display. Press RDS MODE/
FREQ repeatedly to change the display mode among the
RDS data offered by the transmitting station in the order
shown below. Illumination of the red indicator next to the
RDS mode indicator shows that the corresponding RDS
mode is now selected.
Notes
When an RDS station is being received, do not press RDS
MODE/FREQ until one or more RDS mode indicators light up on
the display. If you press the button before the indicators light up
on the display, the mode cannot be changed. This is because the
unit has not yet received all of the RDS data on the station.
RDS data not offered by the station cannot be selected.
The RDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the
received signal is not strong enough. In particular, the RT mode
requires a large amount of data to be received, so it is possible
that the RT mode may not be displayed even if other RDS modes
(PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.
RDS data cannot sometimes be receive under poor reception
conditions. If so, press TUNING MODE so that the “AUTO”
indicator goes off from the display. Although the reception mode
is changed to monaural by this operation, when you change the
display to RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.
If the signal strength is weakened by external interference during
the reception of an RDS station, the RDS data service may be cut
off suddenly and “...WAIT” will appear on the display.

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

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

DELAY TIME AND SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS
When using the digital sound field processor with the Dolby
Pro Logic decoder or Dolby Digital decoder, you can adjust
the delay time between the main sound and sound effect,
and each speakers output level as you wish.
Delay Time
You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of
the sound from the main speakers and the beginning of the
sound effect from the rear speakers. The larger the value,
the later the sound effect is generated. The delay time can be
individually adjusted to all DSP programs.
Notes
Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with some
sources.
The sound is momentarily interrupted while adjusting the delay
time.
Sound Output Level of the Center,
Right Rear and Left Rear Speakers,
and Subwoofer
If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of each
speaker even if it has already been adjusted in
“ADJUSTING THE SPEAKER BALANCE” on pages 17
and 18.
Notes
The sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted
when the input signal is analog, PCM audio, or encoded with
Dolby Digital in 2-channel.
If “CENTER SP” in the SET MENU is set to the NONE position,
the sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted.
This is because the center channel sound is automatically output
from the right and left main speakers.
Once the sound output level has been adjusted, the level will be
the same for all DSP programs.

GLOSSARY
CINEMA DSP
Dolby Surround
Dolby Surround uses four discrete channels and five
speakers to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects:
two main channels (left and right), a center channel for
dialog, and a rear channel for special sound effects. The rear
channel reproduces sound within a narrow frequency range.
Most video tapes and laser discs include Dolby Surround
encoding, as do many TV and cable broadcasts. The Dolby
Pro Logic decoder built into this unit employs a digital
signal processing system that stabilizes each channel for
even more accurate sound positioning than is available with
standard analog processors.
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that
provides completely independent multi-channel audio to
you. Dolby Digital provides five full-range channels in what
is sometimes referred to as a “3/2” configuration: three front
channels (left, center and right), and two surround channels.
A sixth bass-only effect channel is also provided for output
of LFE (low frequency effect), or low bass effects that are
independent of other channels. (This is called the “LFE
channel”.) This channel is counted as 0.1, thus giving rise to
the term 5.1 channels in total.
The wide dynamic range of sound reproduced by the five
full-range channels and precise sound orientation by digital
sound processing provides listeners with excitement and
realism that have never been experienced before.
CINEMA DSP
The Dolby Surround and Dolby Digital sound systems show
their full ability in a large movie theater, because movie
sounds are originally designed to be reproduced in a large
movie theater that uses a multitude of speakers. Trying to
create a sound environment similar to that of a movie theater
in your home is difficult because of the room size, material
inside the walls, the number of speakers, and so on. In other
words, your listening room is very different from a movie
theater.
However, YAMAHA DSP technology allows you to create
nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie
theater in your home by compensating for the lack of
presence and dynamics in the listening room with original
digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround or
Dolby Digital.
The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those
programs that are created by the combination of YAMAHA
DSP technology and Dolby Surround or Dolby Digital.
LFE 0.1 Channel
This channel is for reproduction of low bass signals. The
frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz. This
channel is called the channel 0.1 because it only reproduces
a low frequency range compared to the full-range from
20 Hz to 20 kHz that is reproduced by the 5 channels in a
Dolby Digital 5.1 channel system.
