Balanced connection
A balanced connection is designed to cancel and prevent unwanted noise. Since longer cables tend to pick up more noise, a balanced connection is useful if you need to use long cables. Generally, if your components feature balanced outputs, you should use balanced connections.
Jacks for balanced connections
XLR-type jacks on this unit are used for balanced
connections. The input and output jacks utilize different designs. Input jacks are female, and output jacks are male. For balanced connections, balanced cables with
XLR connectors are used. Connect a male connector
on the cable to a female jack on the unit, and connect a female connector to a male jack on the unit.

When connecting a cable to an output jack, be sure to align the holes on the connector with the pins on the jack, and then insert the connector into the jack until you hear a click. To remove the cable, while pressing and holding
down the lever on the female XLR connector, pull it out
from the jack.
Balanced connection polarity
When making a balanced connection, you must set the polarity correctly. Generally, pin #2 is Hot, but sometimes pin #3 can be Hot. Refer to the owner’s manual for the connected component to learn which pin at the output jack is Hot.
To set the polarity for the BAL 1 and BAL 2 input jack pins, use the PHASE selector on the rear panel.
Note
• The PHONO and EXT. IN jacks do not feature a PHASE switch. The pin polarity of these jacks is standard and xed.
• Pin #2 is Hot on Yamaha players.
When connecting a cable to an input jack, be sure to align the pins on the connector with the holes in the jack, and then insert the connector into the jack until you hear a click. To remove the cable, while pressing and holding down the lever on the input jack on the unit, pull out the
male XLR connector from the jack.
14
If the PHASE selector is set to NORMAL, pin #2
becomes Hot.
Unbalanced connection
If you are connecting an audio component that features only standard RCA jacks, use the RCA jacks on this unit for unbalanced connections. For unbalanced connections, unbalanced cables with RCA connectors should be used. These jacks and connectors do not feature a male or female design nor polarity differences.

CAUTION
• Do not use a new and old batteries at the same time. Otherwise, re, burns, or irritation due to leaking battery liquid might be caused.
• Do not use two dierent types of batteries at the same time. For example, if you use an alkaline battery and a manganese battery together, or two batteries from two dierent manufacturers or with dierent product numbers at the same time, re, burns, or skin irritation due to leaking battery liquid might be caused.
• Keep the batteries out of the reach of children. Otherwise, a child might swallow the battery by accident. Also, leaking battery liquid might cause skin irritation.
• Insert the two batteries according to the polarity markings (+ and −). Otherwise, re, burns, or skin irritation due to leaking battery liquid might be caused.
• If you plan not to use the remote control for an extended period of time, or if the batteries are exhausted completely, remove them from the remote control. Otherwise, all batteries will eventually become exhausted and might leak, causing skin irritation or damage to the remote control.

WARNING
• Do not toss the batteries into an open re, or expose them to high temperatures, such as direct sunlight or open ame. Otherwise, the battery might explode, causing re or injury.
• Do not try to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. Otherwise, batteries might explode or leak, causing blindness, chemical burns or injury.
• If a battery is leaking, do not touch the liquid. Otherwise, blindness or chemical burns might be caused. If your eyes, mouth, or skin comes in contact with the liquid, immediately wash the site thoroughly with water and seek medical attention.

Controlling the unit’s power on­and-o operation in sync with a connected component, such as an AV receiver
You can control the unit’s power on-and-off operation in sync with a connected component, such as a Yamaha
AV receiver. Use an optional system cable to connect the unit’s TRIGGER IN jack to the connected component’s TRIGGER OUT jack. While the unit is in standby mode,
turning on the power to the connected component will
also turn on the unit, and the signal at the EXT. IN jacks
will be selected as the input source. When the power to the connected component is turned off, the unit will enter standby mode.

Remote connection between Yamaha components
If you have another Yamaha component that supports remote connections, as this unit does, an infrared transmitter is not necessary. You can transmit remote signals by connecting an infrared receiver to the unit’s
REMOTE IN jack, and the REMOTE IN jack of the other component to the unit’s REMOTE OUT jack,
using monaural mini-plug cables. Up to three Yamaha components (including this unit) can be set up for remote connection.
