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. ■ Use of a subwoofer expands your sound field Rear speaker (R) Subwoofer Main speaker (L) 1.8 m Center speaker Rear speaker (L) ■ 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 center channel sound will be heard from the right and left main speakers. In that case, “CENTER SP” on the SET MENU is set to the NONE position. (Refer to page 26 for details.) ADVANCED OPERATION 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 or DTS. The YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for natural and lively bass reproduction. Main speaker (R) BASIC OPERATION 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 highperformance models that can reproduce sounds over the full range for the center speaker and the rear speakers. Refer to the following diagram when you place the speakers. PREPARATION 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. Speaker Placement INTRODUCTION Speakers to Be Used ■ Subwoofer APPENDIX 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 E-7 103.E800_07-15(Eng) 7 5/18/0, 1:36 PM English 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) V V White analog audio signals for the left channel L L Red analog audio signals for the right channel R R coaxial digital signals C C After completing all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.

Digital signal encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS 2. Normal digital signal (PCM) 3. Analog signal (ANALOG) Input mode Notes Note • If digital signals are input from both the OPTICAL and COAXIAL terminals, the digital signal from the COAXIAL terminal is selected. ■ DTS In this mode, only a digital signal encoded with DTS is selected, even if other signals are being input at the same time. ■ ANALOG In this mode, only an analog signal is selected, even if a digital signal is being input at the same time. Select this mode when you want to use an analog signal instead of a digital signal. • Set the input mode to AUTO to play a DVD/LD source encoded with Dolby Digital. • If the input mode is set to AUTO for the source, this unit automatically determines which type of signal the source contains. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and reproduces 5.1 channel sound. • 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 or DTS, 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 and VCR sources because only analog signals are used for these. • The current input mode appears on the display when the DVD/ LD, D-TV or CBL/SAT source is selected or the input mode is changed.

Change the input mode as necessary. • If the LD player is transmitting signals by a non-normal method, this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital or DTS 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 and set the input mode to AUTO or ANALOG. • While you are operating the LD player and playing a disc encoded with Dolby Digital, 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. The digital input terminal of this unit can also handle 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals. (To utilize this, use a source that supports 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals and set the player for digital output. Refer to the instructions for the player.) Note the following when a 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signal is input to this unit. 1. The following indicator will appear on the display. TUNER CD CBL/SAT 2. DSP programs cannot be selected. Sound will be output as normal 2-channel stereo sound using only the right and left main speakers. 3. Delay time and speaker output level cannot be adjusted. BASIC OPERATION DVD/LD D–TV VCR PREPARATION ■ Notes on the digital signal INTRODUCTION • If “DATA ERROR” appears on the display while playing an LD source encoded with DTS, stop playback and turn the player off and then on again. • If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection between this unit and the player. • If you play an LD source encoded with DTS and set the input mode to ANALOG, there will be the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to connect the source to the digital input terminal and set the input mode to AUTO or DTS. • If you play a source encoded with DTS and set the input mode to AUTO, there will be a short noise at first while the unit recognizes the DTS signal and turns on the DTS decoder. This is not a malfunction, and can be avoided by setting the input mode to DTS beforehand. In addition, if you continue to play a source encoded with DTS with the input mode setting left to AUTO, this unit automatically switches to the “DTS-decoding” mode to prevent noise from being generated during subsequent operation. (The “t” indicator lights up on the display.) The “t” indicator will flash immediately after playback of a source encoded with DTS has finished. Only a source encoded with DTS can be played back while this indicator is flashing. If you want to play a normal PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO. ■ Notes on playing an LD source ADVANCED OPERATION APPENDIX English E-19 104.E800_16-20(Eng) 19 5/18/0, 1:37 PM  DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP) EFFECT Notes Selecting a DSP Program You can enhance your listening experience by selecting a DSP program.

In either position, signals on the LFE channel and low bass signals (below 90 Hz) on the center and rear channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal if “CENTER SP” is set to the SML or NONE position and “REAR SP” is set to the SMALL position. In the SW position, low bass signals on the main channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal if “MAIN SP” is set to the SMALL position. In the BOTH position, low bass signals on the main channels are directed to both the main speakers and the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal. Note • When playing a 2-channel source (tape, MD, CD, video cassette etc.), select the BOTH position to direct low bass signals (below 90 Hz) to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal. MAIN Select this position if your system does not include a subwoofer. In this position, besides full-range signals on the main channels, signals on the LFE channel and other low bass signals (below 90 Hz) that are distributed from other channels are directed to the right and left main speakers.

MAIN LVL Choices: NORM (Normal)/–10 dB Preset position: NORM (Normal) Choices: MAX/STD (Standard)/MIN Preset position: MAX Note –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. Control range: –20 dB to 0 dB (in 1 dB steps) Preset value: 0 dB 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. 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. Note 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. APPENDIX 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. ADVANCED OPERATION • This adjustment is only effective when Dolby Digital is being decoded and the selected source encoded with Dolby Digital contains LFE signals. 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. BASIC OPERATION 6. D.D. LFE (Adjusting the output level of the LFE channel for Dolby Digital) “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. PREPARATION Notes • The setting of “CENTER SP”, “REAR SP”, “MAIN SP” and “BASS OUT” have no effect on a source connected to the 6CH 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. • This adjustment is only effective when Dolby Digital is being decoded.

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. 9. CNTR DELAY (Adjusting the delay of the sound from the center sound) Control range: 0 ms to 5 ms (in 1 ms steps) Preset value: 0 ms 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. If you wish to prevent accidental alterations to the settings of the SET MENU and other adjustments on this unit, select the ON position.

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. PREPARATION 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. 2.

Direct sunlight or lighting (from an inverter type of fluorescent lamp, etc.) is striking the remote control sensor of this unit. Reposition the unit. 3 The batteries are weak. Replace all batteries with new ones. 2 ■ Others SYMPTOM CAUSE REMEDY Refer to page The sound is degraded when listening with headphones to a tape deck or CD player connected to this unit. This unit is in the standby mode. Turn on the power of the unit. — There is noise interference from digital or high-frequency equipment, or the unit. The unit is too close to the digital or highfrequency equipment. Move the unit further away from such equipment. — ■ When playing back a source encoded with DTS REMEDY Refer to page SYMPTOM CAUSE A loud hissing noise is heard when playing back a source encoded with DTS. The player which plays back the source is not connected to a digital audio signal input terminal of this unit. The player must be connected to a digital audio signal input terminal of this unit besides the analog audio signal terminal connections. 10 The input mode is set to ANALOG on this unit. Set a proper input mode to turn on the built-in DTS decoder. 18 A percussive noise is heard when playing back a source encoded with DTS. If the input mode is set to AUTO, depending on some sources, there may be a noise heard while this unit is identifying the format of the input signal. Set the input mode of the currently selected input source to DTS. 18 No sound is heard when playing back a source encoded with DTS, even if the input mode is set to AUTO on this unit. The built-in DTS decoder does not function because the player has a digital volume control and it is set at a position other than “maximum,” “neutral” or “ineffective.” Set the player’s digital volume control at the maximum, neutral or ineffective position. — No sound is heard when playing back an MD or DAT on which has been recorded a source encoded with DTS. A source encoded with DTS cannot be recorded on an MD or DAT. No sound is heard when playing back a source (CD, etc.) even if the currently selected input mode is AUTO. In the AUTO mode, the DTS-decoding mode cannot be automatically changed to the normal (PCM) digital signal input mode. — Set the input mode to AUTO again. 19 Notes • It is necessary to use a DTS decoder to play back a source encoded with DTS, so the player which plays back the source must be connected to a digital audio input terminal of this unit in the way described in this manual. If this connection is not made or only a D-to-A converter is being used without using a DTS decoder, only a loud hissing noise will be heard when you play back the source. • The “t” indicator will flash when the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or skip operation is performed while playing back a source encoded with DTS. If this status continues for 30 or more seconds, the unit will automatically switch from DTS-decoding mode to PCM digital signal input mode and the “t” indicator will go out.
