PREPARATION

■ Roles and layout of the speakers

To enjoy quality sounds you need to place the speakers in their appropriate positions and install them correctly.

The following show the recommended layout of the speakers.

For the best possible surround sound, all of the speakers (except the subwoofer) should be placed at the same distance

from the listening position.

1 Front Speakers (L, R)

Place the front left/right speakers on both sides of your TV at equal distances.

Main roles: Produces front channel (stereo) sounds and effect sounds.

2 Center Speaker

Place on top of the TV or inside the TV rack so that the speaker and TV are aligned vertically.

Main role: Produces sounds oriented toward the center of the screen such as dialogues or vocal sounds.

3 Surround Speakers (L, R)

Place the surround left/right speakers behind the listening position. (For NX-S301, we recommend placing them at a height of 1.8 m

(6 feet) and pointing them at the listening position.)

Main roles: Produces surround sounds and effect sounds.

4 Subwoofer

Place the subwoofer near a front speaker and turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.

Main roles: Produces bass sounds and low frequency (LFE) sounds contained in Dolby Digital or DTS.

To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV.

Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD receiver and subwoofer.

Bass sounds produced by the subwoofer may be heard differently depending on the listening position and subwoofer location.

To enjoy desired sounds, try to change the location of the subwoofer according to the listening position.

■ Placing the center speaker

When placing the center speaker on top of the TV, use the

supplied fasteners to secure the speaker.

1 Peel off the seals on one side of the fasteners and

attach them to the bottom of the center speaker.

2 Peel off the seals on the other side of the fasteners and

attach them to the top of the TV.

– Do not place the speaker on the TV if the top of the

TV is uneven or narrower than the bottom surface

of the speaker. Doing so may cause the speaker to

fall. In this case, place the speaker inside a TV rack

or on a level floor.

– Before attaching the fasteners to the TV, clean the

surface with a dry cloth. A dirty or wet surface may

weaken the adhesive force and cause the speaker to

fall.

– Do not touch the bonding surfaces of the fasteners

after peeling off the seals. Doing so may weaken

the adhensive force and cause the speaker to

fall.this installation. Use metric screw threads only.

Attaching to a wall

You can attach the speakers to a wall using commercially

available screws (Diameter: 3.5 to 4 mm, Length: 25 mm

or more). Each speaker requires two screws.

1 Install two screws in the wall where you want to place

the speaker.

2 Hang the speaker on the screws using the holes in the

back of the speaker.

– To attach a speaker to a wall using screws, the wall

must be firm. Do not attach a speaker to a wall that

is made of weak materials such as plaster or

veneered woods. Doing so may cause the speaker

to fall.

– When connectiong the speakers, fix the speaker

cables in place so that cables do not loosen. If your

foot or hand accidentally gets caught on a loose

speaker cable, the speaker may fall.

– After attaching each speaker, check that the

speaker is fixed securely. YAMAHA will bear no

reponsibility for any accidents caused by improper

installations.

GLOSSARY

Analog

Sound that has not been turned into numbers.

Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific

numerical values. These jacks send audio through two

channels, the left and right.

Aspect ratio

The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed

image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional

TVs. is 4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9.

Bit

Short for binary digit. Represents the smallest unit of

information manipulated on a computer. In audio

systems, the bit size determines resolution to digitize

analog signals.

The larger the bit size, the larger the dynamic range (the

ratio of maximum and minimum frequency level) and

the finer the sounds. Generally, an audio CD is 16 bit

and DVD audio is 24 bit.

Bit rate

The amount of data used to hold a given length of

music; measured in kilobits per second, or kbps. Also,

the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the

bit rate, or recording speed, the better the sound quality.

However, higher bit rates use more space on a disc.

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT

Jacks for inputting or outputting a component video

signal.Component video signal consists of three lines,

the luminance signal (Y) and two color difference

signals (P

, P

), which enable to provide high-

quality video.

Disc menu

A screen display prepared for allowing selection of

images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles, etc. recorded on

a DVD.

DivX

is a video compression technology developed by

DivX

Networks, Inc. It compresses digital video data to

sizes small enough to be transported over the Internet

without reducing the original video quality. You need

DivX codec software to play back DivX movies or

convert data to the DivX format.

Dolby Digital

Digital surround sound system which is developed by

Dolby Laboratories provides completely independent

multi-channel audio. With 3 front channels (left, center,

and right) and 2 surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital

provides five full-range audio channels. With an

additional channel especially for bass effects (called

LFE, or low frequency effect), the system has a total of

5.1-channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel). By using

2-channel stereo for the surround speakers, more

accurate moving sound effects and surround sound

environment are possible than with Dolby Surround.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic II

It is an improved matrix decoding technology that

provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby

Surround programme material; provides a convincing

three-dimensional soundfield on convertional stereo

music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the

surround experience to automotive sound. While

conventional surround programming is fully compatible

with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders,

soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to

take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including

separate left and right surround channels. (Such material

is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic

decoders).

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

Digital surround sound system developed by Digital

Theater Systems, Inc., which provides 5.1 channel audio

(max). With an abundance of audio data, it is able to

provide authentic-sounding effects.

Interlace

The most common type of scanning used in televisions.

It divides a screen into even and odd numbered fields for

scanning, and then builds an image by combining them

into one image (frame).

JPEG (Joint Photographic Expert Group)

A standardized image compression system proposed by

the Joint Photographic Expert Group. It can reduce

image data sizes to 1 to 10% of their original sizes, and

works on digital photographs effectively.

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3)

An audio file compression technology. It can reduce

audio data sizes to about 10% of their original sizes

while maintaining CD-level audio quality.

MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group)

compression generated by ISO (International

Organization for Standardization) and IEC

(International Electrotechnical Commission).

Includes MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-3. MPEG-1

offers VHS level video quality and is often used on

video CDs. MPEG-2 offers S-VHS level video quality

and is often used on DVDs.

This audio format is based upon the current CD

standards but includes a greater amount of information

that provides higher quality sound. There are three types

of discs: single layer, double layer and hybrid discs. The

hybrid disc can be played on existing CD players as well

as Super Audio players since it contains both standard

audio CD and Super Audio CD information.

English 51 GLOSSARY GLOSSARY Analog Dolby Digital Sound that has not been turned into numbers. Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific numerical values. These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right. Digital surround sound system which is developed by Dolby Laboratories provides completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3 front channels (left, center, and right) and 2 surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides five full-range audio channels. With an additional channel especially for bass effects (called LFE, or low frequency effect), the system has a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel). By using 2-channel stereo for the surround speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and surround sound environment are possible than with Dolby Surround. Aspect ratio The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs. is 4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9. Bit Short for binary digit. Represents the smallest unit of information manipulated on a computer. In audio systems, the bit size determines resolution to digitize analog signals. The larger the bit size, the larger the dynamic range (the ratio of maximum and minimum frequency level) and the finer the sounds. Generally, an audio CD is 16 bit and DVD audio is 24 bit. Bit rate The amount of data used to hold a given length of music; measured in kilobits per second, or kbps. Also, the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the bit rate, or recording speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space on a disc.

(Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders). DTS (Digital Theater Systems) Digital surround sound system developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which provides 5.1 channel audio (max). With an abundance of audio data, it is able to provide authentic-sounding effects. Interlace The most common type of scanning used in televisions. It divides a screen into even and odd numbered fields for scanning, and then builds an image by combining them into one image (frame). JPEG (Joint Photographic Expert Group) A standardized image compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group. It can reduce image data sizes to 1 to 10% of their original sizes, and works on digital photographs effectively. MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) An audio file compression technology. It can reduce audio data sizes to about 10% of their original sizes while maintaining CD-level audio quality. MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group) International standard for digital video and audio compression generated by ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). Includes MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-3. MPEG-1 offers VHS level video quality and is often used on video CDs.
