PREPARATION
Speakers to Be Used
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5-speaker system, using main speakers, rear speakers and a center speaker. 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.
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.
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.
■Use of a subwoofer expands your sound field
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. The YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for natural and lively bass reproduction.
Speaker Placement
Refer to the following diagram when you place the |

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 sound will be heard from the right and left main speakers. In that case, “CENTER SP” in the SET MENU is set to the NONE position. (Refer to page 32 for details.)
■ Subwoofer
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
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.

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 |

CONNECTIONS
Connecting the Antennas
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal strength. However, a properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality.
Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals.
■ Indoor FM antenna (included)
Indoor FM antenna
Firmly insert the connector into the FM ANT terminal. The indoor FM antenna is only a simple antenna. For reception with better sound quality, installing the outdoor FM antenna (commercially available) is recommended.
Note
• Do not connect an outdoor FM antenna and the indoor FM antenna at the same time.
■ Outdoor FM antenna |
Antenna adapter |
(included for U.S.A. and |
Canada models) |
Note |
Use this adapter to match |

You may be unable to obtain good FM radio reception depending on your local conditions (distance from the broadcasting station, interposing buildings and mountains, etc.). Consult your dealer or authorized service
center and be sure to install an antenna that suits your local conditions.
Install the outdoor FM antenna (commercially available) in a high place as far away from any roads as possible to avoid being affected by automobile ignition noise.

3 Return the tab to its original position to lock the lead wires. Lightly pull the lead wires to confirm a good connection.
4 Attach the loop antenna to the antenna stand.
5Orient the AM loop antenna so that the best reception is obtained.
If you cannot obtain good reception with the AM loop antenna, connect 5 m to 10 m of vinyl covered wire to the AM ANT terminal and extend it outdoors from a window.
For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the antenna GND terminal to a good earth ground. A good earth ground is a metal stake driven into moist earth.

•No sound will be heard when connecting your LD player’s Dolby Digital RF signal output terminal directly to this unit’s COAXIAL DVD/LD digital signal input terminal.
■ Digital audio signal terminals
If your DVD/LD player, TV/digital TV or satellite tuner, etc. has coaxial or optical digital signal output
terminals, they can be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL digital signal input terminals. To make a connection between the optical digital signal terminals, remove the cover from each terminal, and then connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber cable that conforms to EIA standards. Other cables might not function correctly.
When making connections between the digital signal terminals, you should connect the components to the samenamed analog audio signal terminals of this unit, because a digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck, MD recorder or VCR connected to this unit.
y
•The input signal from the DVD/LD input terminals is selected in
the following order of priority with the input mode set to AUTO: COAXIAL terminal → OPTICAL terminal → Analog terminal.
Refer to page 21 for details.
•All digital signal input terminals are applicable to sampling frequencies of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.
