CONNECTIONS

Connecting speakers

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

• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the power of this unit is turned 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 the speakers.

• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor.

PREPARATION

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

insulation from the end of each speaker cable and twist the exposed wires of the cable together to eliminate the risk of a short-circuit.

10 mm (3/8 in)

2 Unscrew the knob.

Red: positive (+)

Black: negative (–)

3 Insert one bare wire into the hole in the side

of each terminal.

4 Tighten the knob to secure the wire.

Red: positive (+)

Black: negative (–)

■ Notes on the speaker cord

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 ridge. Connect the striped, grooved or ridged cable to the “+” (red) terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals on this unit and your speaker.

■ Connecting the banana plug

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

First, tighten the knob and then insert the banana plug into the end of the corresponding terminal.

Red: positive (+)

Black: negative (–)

CONNECTIONS

Connecting audio and video components

CAUTION

• Do not connect this unit or other components to the main power until all connections between components are complete.

• All connections must be correct: L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Also, refer to the owner’s manual for each of your components.

• Use the RCA type pin plug cables for audio and video components except speakers.

• The PHONO jacks are designed to connect a turntable with an MM or high-output MC cartridge. If you have a turntable with a lowoutput MC cartridge, use an in-line boosting transformer or an MC-head amplifier when connecting your turntable to the PHONO jacks.

• Connect your turntable to the GND terminal to reduce noise in the signal. However, you may hear less noise without the connection to the GND terminal for some record players.

ANT

GND

Ground (GND terminal)

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.

Notes

• 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. Consult your nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center about outdoor antennas.

• If you connect an outdoor FM antenna to this unit, do not connect the indoor FM antenna to this unit.

• To minimize interference from automobile ignition, locate the antenna as far from heavy traffic as possible.

• Keep the feeder cable or coaxial cable as short as possible. Do not bundle or roll up excess cable.

• The antenna should be placed at least 2 meters from reinforced concrete walls or metal structures.

■ COUPLER jacks

Removing the jumper pins from the PRE OUT/MAIN IN jacks enables this unit to operate separately as a control amplifier or a power amplifier. These jacks are used to connect a signal-processing system such as a graphic equalizer or a surround-sound processor to this unit. If such an external unit is connected to these jacks, the VOLUME control of this unit can be used to adjust the overall sound output level. To connect an external unit, first remove the jumper pins from the PRE OUT/MAIN IN jacks and then connect the input jacks of that external unit to the PRE OUT jacks or its output jacks to the MAIN IN jacks. For details, refer to the owner’s manual included with the external unit to be connected.

Notes

• When you do not use the COUPLER jacks, never remove the jumper pins from these jacks. If removed, no sound will be output from this unit.

• When you use this unit with an external unit connected to the COUPLER jacks, make sure that the CD DIRECT AMP button and the PURE DIRECT button on the front panel are turned off.

• When you use this unit as a power amplifier, connect the output jacks of an external control amplifier, etc. to the MAIN IN jacks of this unit. In this case, the controls of this unit will not function except the PHONES jack and the SPEAKERS A/B buttons. Use the controls on the external control amplifier to make volume adjustments, etc.

■ VOLTAGE SELECTOR (Asia and General models only)

VOLTAGE SELECTOR on the rear panel of this unit must be set for your local main voltage BEFORE plugging the power supply cord into the AC wall outlet. Voltages are as follows:

Asia model ......................... AC 220/230–240 V, 50/60 Hz

General model...... AC 110/120/220/230–240 V, 50/60 Hz

■ IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch

CAUTION

Do not slide the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch while the power of this unit is turned on, as doing so may damage the unit.

Select the switch position (left or right) according to the impedance of the speakers in your system.

Switch

position

If you use one set (A or B), the impedance of each speaker must be 6

Right

If you use two sets (A and B), the impedance of each speaker must be 12

If you use one set (A or B), the impedance of each speaker must be 4

Left

If you use two sets (A and B), the impedance of each speaker must be 8

Notes

• The Canada model cannot use two separate speaker sets (A and

B) simultaneously when the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch is slid to the 6

■ Using the CD DIRECT AMP button

Routes input signals from your CD player directly to the specially built-in amplifier for the CD player. As a result, the input signals bypass the INPUT selector and the BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls and then sent to the power amplifier, thus eliminating any alterations to the CD signals and creating the purest possible sound. The CD DIRECT AMP indicator lights up and the front panel display turns off after a few seconds.

■ Using the PURE DIRECT button

Routes input signals from your audio sources so that the input signals bypass the BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls, thus eliminating any alterations to the audio signals and creating the purest possible sound.

■ Adjusting the LOUDNESS control

Retains a full tonal range at any volume level, thus compensating for the human ears’ loss of sensitivity to high and low-frequency ranges at a low volume level.

CAUTION

If the CD DIRECT AMP or the PURE DIRECT button is turned on with the LOUDNESS control set at a certain level, the input signals bypass the LOUDNESS control, resulting in a sudden increase in the sound output level. To prevent your ears or the speakers from being undesirably damaged, be sure to press the CD DIRECT AMP or the PURE DIRECT button after lowering the sound output level or after checking that the LOUDNESS control is properly set.
