• (U.S.A. and Canada models only)
Under its default settings, the unit is configured for 8-ohm
speakers. When connecting 6-ohm speakers, set the unit’s
speaker impedance to “6 Ω MIN”. For details, see “Setting the
speaker impedance” in “Owner’s Manual”.

• Use a subwoofer equipped with built-in amplifier.

• Before connecting the speakers, remove the unit’s power cable
from the AC wall outlet and turn off the subwoofer.

• Ensure that the core wires of the speaker cable do not touch
each other or come into contact with the unit’s metal areas. This
may damage the unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables
short circuit, “Check SP Wires” will appear on the front display
when the unit is turned on.

■ Connecting speaker cables

Speaker cables have two wires. One is for connecting
the negative (-) terminals of the unit and the speaker,
and the other is for the positive (+) terminals. If the wires
are colored to prevent confusion, connect the black wire
to the negative and the other wire to the positive
terminals.

(Connecting front speakers)

a Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation from

the ends of the speaker cable and twist the bare wires of
the cable firmly together.

b Loosen the speaker terminal.

c Insert the bare wires of the cable into the gap on the side

(upper right or bottom left) of the terminal.

d Tighten the terminal.

Using a banana plug

(U.S.A., Canada, Australia and General models only)

a Tighten the speaker terminal.

b Insert a banana plug into the end of the terminal.

Optimizing the speaker settings automatically (YPAO)

The Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) function detects speaker connections, measures the
distances from them to your listening position(s), and then automatically optimizes the speaker settings, such as
volume balance and acoustic parameters, to suit your room.

• During the measuring process, test tones are output at high volume. Ensure that
the test tones do not frighten small children. Also, refrain from using this function at
night when it may be a nuisance to others.

• During the measuring process, you cannot adjust the volume.

• During the measuring process, keep the room as quiet as possible.

• Do not connect headphones.

• Do not stand between the speakers and the YPAO microphone during the
measurement process (about 3 minutes).

• Move to the corner of the room or leave the room.

Preparing for YPAO

Turn on the subwoofer and set
the volume to half. If the
cross-over frequency is
adjustable, set it to maximum.
