Surround speakers (SR and SL)
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m above the floor.
Surround back speakers (SBR and SBL)
The surround back speakers supplement the surround speakers and provide for more realistic front-to-back transitions. Place these speakers directly behind the listening position and at the same height as the surround speakers. They should be positioned at least 30 cm apart. Ideally, they should be positioned at the same width as the front speakers.
Subwoofer
The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels, but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low­frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and DTS software. 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 front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.
1.8 m
1.8 m
Front speakers (FR and FL)
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus effect sounds. Place these speakers an equal distance from the ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the same.
Center speaker (C)
The center speaker is for the center channel 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. Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face of your video monitor. Place the speaker centrally between the front speakers and as close to the monitor as possible, such as directly over or under it.
Presence speakers (PR and PL)
Presence speakers supplement the sound from the front speakers with extra ambient effects produced by CINEMA DSP (see page 48). These effects include sounds that filmmakers intend to locate a little farther back behind the screen in order to create more theater-like ambience. Place these speakers at the front of the room about 0.5 - 1 m outside the front speakers, facing slightly inwards, and about 1.8 m above the floor.

SPEAKER SETUP
Speaker connections
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
CAUTION
• If you will use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set this unit’s speaker impedance setting to 6 ohms before using (see page 24).
• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the power of this unit is off.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or speakers.
• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor.
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridges. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red) terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals.

AUTO SETUP
Introduction
This receiver employs YAMAHA Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) technology which lets you avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieves highly accurate sound adjustments. The supplied optimizer microphone collects and analyzes the sound your speakers produce in your actual listening environment.
Notes
• Please be advised that it is normal for loud test tones to be output during the auto setup procedure.
• If auto setup stops and error messages appear on the screen, follow the troubleshooting on page 30.
YPAO performs the following checks and makes appropriate adjustments to give you the best possible sound from your system.
WIRING/LEVEL: Checks which speakers are connected and the polarity of each speaker. Also checks and adjusts the sound level (volume) of each speaker so that the sound level of each speaker is the same when heard from the listening position.
DISTANCE/PHASE: Checks the distance of each speaker from the listening position and adjusts the delay of each channel so that the sound from each speaker reaches the listening position at the same time. Also checks the phase of each speaker.
SIZE: Checks the speakers frequency response and sets the crossover/high cut frequency for the subwoofer to improve the sound relationship between the speakers and the subwoofer.
