CONNECTIONS

Before connecting components

CAUTION

Do not connect this unit or other coinponents to the mains power until all connections between the components have been completed.

Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), "+” (red) and (black) properly. Some components require different connection methods and have different jack names. Refer to the operation

instructions for each component you wish to connect to this unit.

After you have completed all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.

The jack names correspond to the names on the input selector.

■ Connecting to digital jacks

This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital signals through either a. coaxial or fiber optic cable. You can use the digital jacks to input PCM, Dolby Digital and DTS bitstreams. Use digital connections if you wish to enjoy the multi-channel sound track of DVD material, etc. with DSP effects. Both digital input jacks are acceptable for 96 kHz sampling digital signals.

Note

•The OPTICAL jack on this unit conform to the EIA standard. If you use a fiber optic cable that does not conform to EIA standard, this unit may not function properly.

Connecting the antennas

Both AM and FM indoor antennas are inclttded with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal strength.

Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals.

Indoor FM antenna (included)

CONNECTIONS

■Connecting the AM loop antenna

1Set up the AM loop antenna, then connect it to the terminals on this unit.

Press and hold the tab to insert the AM loop antenna lead wires into the AM ANT and GND terminals.

Ground {GND terminal)

Orient the AM loop antenna for the best reception.

For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the antenna GND temiinal to it good earth ground. A good earth ground is a metal stake driven into moist earth.

Notes

•The AM loop antenna should be placed away from this unit.

•The AM loop antenna should always he connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.

•A properly installed outdoor antemia provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality. Consult the nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or sendee center about the outdoor antennas.

Connecting the speakers

I Speaker placement

The speaker layout above show's the standard ITU-R speaker setting. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP, multi-channel audio sources.

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.

Surround speakers (SR and SL)

The surround speakers are used for effect and surround sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inw'urds, about 1.8 m (6 ft) above the floor.

CONNECTIONS

Subwoofer

The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only for reinforcing buss frequencies from any or all channels, but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low - frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and DTS software. The position (tf 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 W'all reflections.

CONNECTIONS

■ 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

Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear panel of this unit. Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the power of this unit is off.

Do not let the bare speaker wares 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.

Connecting to the FRONT A SPEAKERS terminals

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.

1 Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8") of

10 mm (3/8”) insulation from the end of each of the speaker cables.

2 Twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short circuits.

Loosen the head of the screw.

Insert one bare wire into the hole in the side of each terminal.

5 Tighten the head of the screw to secure the wire.

Banana plug connections

(With the exception of U.K., Europe and Asia models) First, tighten the knob and then insert the banana plug connector into the etid of the corresponding terminal.

Connecting to the FRONT B, CENTER and SURROUND SPEAKERS terminals

1 Press and open the tab.

2 Insert one bare wire into the hole of each terminal.

3 Release the tab to secure the wire.

FRONT SPEAKERS terminals

You can connect up to two speaker systems to these terminals. When using only one speaker system, connect it to either of the FRONT A or the FRONT B terminals.

SURROUND SPEAKERS terminals

A surround speaker system can be cotmected to these terminals.

CENTER SPEAKER terminals

A center speaker can be connected to these terminals.

The diagram shows the speaker layout in the listening room.

SUBWOOFER jack

When using a subwoofer with built-in amplifier, including the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subw'oofer System, connect the input jack of the subwoofer system to this jack. This unit will direct low bass signals distributed from the front, center and/or surround channels to this jack in accordance wdth your SPEAKER SET selections. The LEE (lowfrequency effect) signals generated wdien Dolby Digital or DTS is decoded are also directed to this jack in accordance w ith your SPEAKER SET selections.

Notes

The cut-off frequency of the SUBWOOFER jack is 90 Hz.

If you do not use a subwoofer, allocate the signals to the front left and right speakers by changing the setting of "SOUND I SPEAKER SET” item “ID BASS" on the set menu to FRONT. - - - -

Use the control on the suhw'oofer to adjust its volume level. You can also adjust the volume level hy using this unit’s remote c (see "SETTING THE SPEAKER LEVELS" on page 50).
