The Digital Sound Field Processor (DSP) built into this unit takes full advantage of Yamaha’s undisputed leadership in the field of digital audio processing to bring you a whole new world of listening experiences. Follow the instructions in this manual carefully when setting up your system, and this unit will sonically transform your room into a totally new listening environments –movie theater, concert hall, and so on. In addition, you get incredible realism from Dolby-encoded video sources using the built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder. Please read this owner’s manual carefully and store it in a safe place for later reference. 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 venues such as an actual concert hall, theater, etc. to allow you to accurately recreate one of several actual live performance environments, all in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic Surround The Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder program lets you experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic gets its name from its professional-grade steering logic circuitry, which provides greater effective front and rear channel separation for a much higher degree of realism than the “passive” Dolby Surround circuits found in less sophisticated home audio/video equipment. Dolby Pro Logic Surround provides a true center channel, so that there are four independent channels, unlike passive Dolby Surround which has in effect only three channels: left, right, and rear. This center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from action on the screen while getting a stereo effect as well. This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital signal processing system. This system increases sound stability at each channel and minimizes crosstalk between channels compared to conventional analog Dolby signal processing. In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance control. This circuit always presents you the best surround conditions without performing manual adjustments. Dolby Pro Logic Surround + DSP You can also enjoy Dolby Pro Logic with two modes of Digital Sound field processing. These combinations expand the surround effect. One is the “ENHANCED” Dolby Pro Logic Surround which recreates the surround effect of the 35 mm film movie theater. The other is the sound field program ”70 mm MOVIE THEATER”. Which recreates the listening experience of a 70mm film theater. Directional Enhancement Circuit + DSP The newly featured directional enhancement circuit expands and focuses the digital sound field by emphasizing position of sound. This effect puts you in the midst of the action, while centering and focusing your attention to the screen. This circuit is available on the sound field program “TV THEATER” and “SPORTS”. 6 CINEMA DSP The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates these programs are created by the combination of Dolby Pro Logic and YAMAHA DSP technology.  SPEAKER SETUP FOR THIS UNIT SPEAKERS TO BE USED This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a fivespeaker configuration. The speakers to be used with this unit will be front speakers, rear speakers, and a center speaker. The front speakers are used for the main source sound. These are usually a much larger, high-quality loudspeaker than you will use for the surround sound effects. The center speaker is used for the center sound (dialog, etc.) encoded with the Dolby Surround. And the rear speakers are used for special effects that enhance the surround sound. The rear and center speakers do not need to be equal to the front speakers. However, all the speakers should have high enough power handling to accept the maximum output of this unit. SPEAKER CONFIGURATION Five-Speaker Configuration Four-Speaker Configuration This configuration is the most effective and recommended one. In this configuration, the center speaker is used for dialog when you select the digital sound field program DOLBY PRO LOGIC, DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED, 70mm MOVIE THEATER, TV THEATER, or SPORTS. • Set the center channel mode to the “NORMAL” or “WIDE” position. (For details, refer to page 16.) The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If the digital sound field program DOLBY PRO LOGIC, DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED, 70mm MOVIE THEATER, TV THEATER, or SPORTS is selected, the center sound along with the front effects are output from the left and the right front speakers. However, the sound effect of other programs can be the same as that of the other configurations. • Be sure to set the center channel mode to the “PHANTOM” position. (For details, refer to page 16.) Front L Center Front R Dialogue Front L Front R Dialogue Surround sound Rear L Rear R Surround sound Rear L Rear R 7  SPEAKER PLACEMENT The recommended speaker configuration, the five-speaker configuration, will require two speaker pairs: front speakers and rear speakers, plus a center speaker. When you place these speakers, refer to the following: In normal position. (The position of a standard stereo speaker setup) Center: Precisely between the front speakers. (To avoid interference with TV sets, use a magnetically shielded speaker.) When two center speakers are used, place these to the right and left of your TV set or video monitor. Rear: Behind your listening position, facing slightly inward. Nearly six feet (approx. 1.8 m) up from the floor.

(For details, refer to page 16.) 25  Description of Each Sound Field Program The following list gives brief descriptions 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 them was recorded at the locations described using sophisticated sound field measurement equipment. Note: The channel level balance between the left rear effect speaker and the right rear effect speaker 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. PROGRAM PRO LOGIC FEATURE This program is effective for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The employment of the digital signal processing system reduces crosstalk and transfers the sound source more smoothly and precisely, compared to conventional types. A stable movie sound field is recreated. PRO LOGIC ENHANCED This program is effective for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. Enhancing the “Normal” Dolby Pro Logic, the DSP technology simulates the multi-surround speaker systems of a 35 mm film theater, thus widening the surround-sound field with greater presence. 70 mm MOVIE THEATER This program is effective for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The Yamaha DSP technology is ideally combined with the Dolby Pro Logic to present you the incredible listening experience of the 70 mm movie theater. This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of the newest movies. The sound field is made according to the design of the latest 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 sciencefiction, action, and adventure movies with this program. TV THEATER This program is suitable for dramas, variety or music programs, etc. Much surround effect can be gained for stereo sources. SPORTS 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 produces a dynamic sound expansion. This program is most suitable for sports programs encoded with Dolby Surround STADIUM This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, and the extraordinarily spacious feel of a large stadium. ROCK CONCERT This program is suitable for rock music. A big, powerful sound is reproduced lively and dynamically. JAZZ CLUB This is a small, cosy jazz club with a low ceiling. The sound is very close and intimate. CHURCH This program recreates the acoustic environment of a modern church with a high pointed dome and columns along the sides. This interior produces very few primary reflections. CONCERT HALL In this program, the center seems deep behind the front speaker pair, creating an expansive, large hall ambience. Description of Dolby Pro Logic Surround DOLBY PRO LOGIC SURROUND: This unit employs the Dolby Pro Logic Surround system. This system is similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in movie theaters. By employing a four-channel system, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround system divides the input signals into four levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel (to characterize dialog), and the rear surround-sound channels (to characterize sound effects, background noise and other ambient noise). Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of commercially available video cassettes and video discs as well. When you play a source encoded with 26 Dolby Surround on your home video system, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround system in this unit decodes the signal and feeds the surround-sound effects. The Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode may not be always effective on video sources not encoded with Dolby Surround. Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. Additionally licensed under Canadian patent number 1,037,877. “Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.  To play a source with the digital sound field processor 2 3 1 2 Follow steps 1 - 6 shown in “BASIC OPERATIONS” on page 18. Select the desired program that is suitable for the source. DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR 70mm TV PRO LOGIC ENHANCED MOVIE THEATER THEATER ROCK CONCERT JAZZ CLUB CHURCH SPORTS STADIUM CONCERT HALL PRO LOGIC The selected program name is shown on the display. 3 Notes: • If you prefer to cancel the DSP, press the EFFECT switch. The sound will be the normal 2-channel stereo without surround sound effect. • When STADIUM, ROCK CONCERT, JAZZ CLUB, CHURCH, or CONCERT HALL is selected, no sound is heard from the center speaker. • When a monaural sound source is played with DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED, no sound is heard from the front speakers and the rear speakers. Sound is heard only from the center speaker. However, if the center channel mode is in PHANTOM, the front speakers output the sound of the center channel. • When this unit’s Dolby Pro Logic Surround system is used, if the main-source sound is considerably altered by over adjustment of the BASS or TREBLE controls, the relationship between the center and rear channels may produce an unnatural effect. If desired, adjust the delay time and the output level of each speaker. (For details, refer to the corresponding descriptions on page 28, 29.) 27  The following adjustments can be done on the remote control transmitter as well as on the front panel. Adjustment of the CENTER LEVEL You can adjust the sound output level of the center channel speaker even if the output level is already set in “Speaker balance adjustment” on page 15. LEVEL CENTER Press the “+” or “–” CENTER LEVEL key on the remote control transmitter. As you change the volume level, the front panel LCD will display the value. If you press the “+” or “–” key continuously, the level will continuously change except for a momentary pause at the preset point (80). • The center channel speaker is used only in DOLBY PRO LOGIC, DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED, 70 mm MOVIE THEATER, TV THEATER and SPORTS modes. • Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in all the digital sound field programs. Note: If the digital sound field program STADIUM, ROCK CONCERT, JAZZ CLUB, CHURCH, or CONCERT HALL is selected, the CENTER LEVEL control will not function. Adjustment of the REAR LEVEL You can adjust the sound output level of the rear speakers even if the output level is already set in “Speaker balance adjustment” on page 15. LEVEL REAR Press the “+” or “–” REAR LEVEL key on the remote control transmitter, the level value changes continuously. However, the value stops changing momentarily at the preset point (80). 28 • Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in all the digital sound field programs.  Adjustment of DELAY TIME You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of the source sound and the beginning of the effect sound with the DELAY TIME control. The DELAY TIME control is effective with all programs. By applying more or less delay, sound effects, background noise, and ambient noise coming at you from the rear speakers can be enhanced or subdued for extra effect. 1. PRO LOGIC from 15 to 30 milliseconds (Preset value: 20 milliseconds) 2. PRO LOGIC ENHANCED from 15 to 30 milliseconds (Preset value: 20 milliseconds) 3. 70 mm MOVIE THEATER from 15 to 30 milliseconds (Preset value: 17 milliseconds) 4. TV THEATER from 1 to 50 milliseconds (Preset value: 28 milliseconds) 5. SPORTS from 1 to 50 milliseconds (Preset value: 20 milliseconds) 6. STADIUM from 1 to 50 milliseconds (Preset value: 45 milliseconds) 7. ROCK CONCERT from 1 to 50 milliseconds (Preset value: 22 milliseconds) 8. JAZZ CLUB from 1 to 50 milliseconds (Preset value: 26 milliseconds) 9. CHURCH from 1 to 50 milliseconds (Preset value: 40 milliseconds) 10. CONCERT HALL from 1 to 50 milliseconds (Preset value: 30 milliseconds) By continuously pressing “+” or “–” on the DELAY TIME control, the value changes continuously. However, the value stops changing momentarily at the preset point. DELAY TIME Note: Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with some sources. Experiment with the DELAY TIME control to create the effect that you find most suitable. Note: The values of the DELAY TIME, CENTER LEVEL and REAR LEVEL you set the last time will remain memorized even when the power of this unit is off. 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. 29  SETTING THE SLEEP TIMER If you use the SLEEP timer of this unit, you can make this unit turn off automatically. When you are going to sleep while enjoying a broadcast or other desired input source, this timer function is helpful. Notes: • The SLEEP timer can be controlled only with the remote control transmitter. • The components on which the SLEEP timer is effective are the sources connected to the SWITCHED AC OUTLET(S) on the rear panel of this unit. To set the SLEEP time To cancel the selected SLEEP time 1 1 SLEEP SLEEP Press the SLEEP key until “SLEEP OFF” appears on the display. SLEEP SLEEP Flashes continuously. Whenever the SLEEP key is pressed, the SLEEP time will change as follows: (Minutes) SLEEP The SLEEPtimer is OFF. (The indication before the SLEEP key is pressed.) After a while, the display returns to the indication before the SLEEP timer is set, and the “SLEEP” indicator stops flashing and lights up. 2 The unit will be turned off automatically at the selected SLEEP time. Press once or more so that the display returns to the indication before the SLEEP timer is set. (“SLEEP” will go off from the display.)

Check the antenna connections. Try using a multiple element FM antenna. 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 Auto tuning. The station is too weak. Use Manual tuning mode. Use a high quality directional FM antenna. A desired station cannot be tuned in with Auto tuning. Weak signal or loose antenna connections. Tighten the AM loop antenna connections and rotate it for best reception. Use Manual tuning mode. There are continuous crackling and hissing noises. Noises will result from lighting, 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. The power to this unit is off. Turn the power to this unit on. The sound is degraded when monitoring is performed by using the headphones connected to the compact disc player or cassette deck which are connected with this unit. 37  SPECIFICATIONS AUDIO SECTION Minimum RMS Output Power per Channel Front L, R 8 ohms, 20 Hz to 20 kHz, 0.015% THD ............................................................. 100W+100W 6 ohms, 20 Hz to 20 kHz, 0.04% THD [U.S.A. model only] .......................... 120W+120W Center 8 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.015% THD ......................... 100W Rear L, R 8 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.08% THD .................. 25W+25W Maximum Output Power [General model only] 8 ohms, 1 kHz, 10% THD (FRONT L/R) ............................................................. 135W+135W Dynamic Power per Channel (by IHF Dynamic Headroom measuring method) 8/6/4/2 ohms ...................... 130/160/215/310W Dynamic Headroom [U.S.A. and Canadian models only] 8 ohms .......................................................... 1.14 dB Power Band Width 8 ohms, 50W, 0.08% THD ....................................................... 10 Hz to 50 kHz Damping Factor (SPEAKER·A) 8 ohms, 20 Hz to 20 kHz .................... 200 or more Input Sensitivity/Impedance PHONO MM ........................... 2.5 mV/47 k-ohms CD/TAPE/LD·TV/VCR ...... 150 mV/47 k-ohms MAIN IN ...................................... 1.0V/47 k-ohms Maximum Input Signal PHONO MM (1 kHz, 0.02% THD) ....................................................... 110 mV or more CD/TAPE/LD·TV/VCR (EFFECT ON) (1 kHz 0.5% THD) ............................................ 2.2V Output Level/Impedance REC OUT ............................... 150 mV/1.0 k-ohms PRE OUT (FRONT) ................... 1.0V/1.5 k-ohms LPF (EFFECT OFF) .................... 3.5V/2.7 k-ohms Headphone Jack Rated Output/Impedance (8 ohms, 1 kHz, 150 mV) ............ 0.55V/390 ohms Frequency Response (20 Hz to 20 kHz) MAIN IN .................................................... 0±0.2 dB CD/TAPE/LD·TV/VCR (FRONT L/R) ..................................................................... 0±0.5 dB RIAA Equalization Deviation PHONO MM ............................................. 0±0.5 dB Total Harmonic Distortion PHONO MM to REC OUT 20 Hz to 20 kHz, 1V ..................... 0.01% or less CD/TAPE/LD·TV/VCR (EFFECT OFF) to SP OUT 20 Hz to 20 kHz, 50W/8 ohms ...................................................... 0.015% or less CD/TAPE/LD·TV/VCR toSP OUT (REAR) 1 kHz 12.5W/8 ohms .................... 0.3% or less Signal-to-Noise Ratio (IHF-A Network) PHONO MM to REC OUT (5 mV Input Shorted) ........................................................... 86 dB or more CD/TAPE/LD·TV/VCR to SP OUT (Input Shorted, EFFECT OFF) ....... 98 dB or more Residual Noise (IHF-A Network) SP OUT (FRONT L/R) ................... 170 µV or less Channel Separation (Vol. –30 dB, EFFECT OFF) PHONO MM (Input Shorted 1 kHz/10 kHz) ................................ 60 dB or more/55 dB or more CD/TAPE/LD·TV/VCR (Input 5.1 k-ohms Shorted 1 kHz/10 kHz) ................................ 60 dB or more/45 dB or more Tone Control Characteristics BASS: Boost/cut ............................. ±10 dB (50 Hz) Turnover Frequency .....................
