CONNECTIONS

Connecting speakers

This unit uses acoustic field effects and sound decoders to bring you the impact of a real movie theater or concert hall. These effects will be brought to you with ideal speaker positioning and connections in your listening environment.

Speaker channels and functions

Front left and right speakers
The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds (stereo sound) and effect sounds.
Surround left and right speakers
The surround speakers are for effect and vocal sounds while playing back more than 5.1-channel source. When used with no surround back speaker while playing back more than 6.1-channel source (including surround back channel), sound of surround back channel is distributed between the left and right surround speakers.
Surround back left and right speakers
The surround back speakers are for rear effect sounds while playing back more than 6.1-channel source. When used with only one surround back speaker while playing back more than 7.1­channel source, sound of the left and right surround back channel is mixed and output from a single speaker.
E.g.
Front speaker layout: Place these speakers at an equal distance from the ideal listening position in the front of the room. When using a projector screen, the appropriate top positions of the speakers are about 1/4 of the screen from the bottom.
Center speaker
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.).
E.g.
Center speaker layout: Place it halfway between the left and right front speakers. When using a TV, place the speaker just above or just under the center of the TV with the front surfaces of the TV and the speaker aligned. When using a screen, place it just under the center of the screen.
E.g.
Surround speaker layout: Place the speakers at the rear of the room on the left and right sides facing the listening position. They should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position and with the speaker tops at a height of 1.5 – 1.8 m from the floor.
Presence left and right speakers
The front and rear presence speakers are used for front and rear effect sounds. When used in combination with the sound programs (
p. 57), a sound with a richer and more spatial presence is
possible.
E.g.
Presence speaker layout: Place the left and right front presence speakers 0.5 – 1 m to the outside of the left and right front speakers respectively. The tops of the both front and rear presence speakers should be 1.8 m above the floor.
E.g.
Surround back speaker layout: When used with 7.1ch sound, arrange the left and right speakers towards the listening position, to the rear of the listening position. Arrange the left and right speakers at least 30 cm apart. The same separation as with the front left and right speakers is optimum. When used with 6.1ch sound, arrange these to the rear of the listening position.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and low-frequency effect (LFE) sounds included in Dolby Digital and DTS. Use a subwoofer that is equipped with built-in amplifier.
E.g.
Subwoofer speaker layout: Place it to the outside of the front left and right speakers facing slightly inward to reduce echoes from the wall. You can use one or two subwoofers and select the position of subwoofers from “Left + Right,” “Front + Rear” and “Monaural x2” (
p. 98).

Speaker layout

In addition to the 7.1-channel speaker layout, a variety of speaker configurations can be specified with presence speaker connection, bi-amp connection or the Zone2/Zone3 function. In addition, this unit is equipped with the “Power Amp Assign” function, which can be used to easily apply the appropriate speaker settings to this unit according to speaker configuration.
Connection of speakers
Connect the speakers to the appropriate jacks shown in the table for each speaker layout. Refer to “Connecting speakers and subwoofers” ( You can also use two subwoofers by connecting them to both SUBWOOFER1 (FRONT) and SUBWOOFER2 (REAR) jacks. And, you can use the EXTRA SP1 jacks for Zone3 speakers and EXTRA SP2 jacks for Zone2 by setting the assignment with “Power Amp Assign” (
Assigning a speaker configuration
A speaker configuration must be assigned to this unit to activate the speakers. Use the Power Amp Assign function to apply the appropriate settings shown in the table for each speaker layout. Refer to “Power Amp Assign” (
p. 97) for details on setting.
p. 20) for details on connecting speakers.

Connecting speakers and subwoofers

Connect your speakers to their respective terminals on the rear panel.
CAUTION
Remove the power cable of this unit from the power outlet before connecting the speakers.
Generally speaker cables consist of two parallel insulated cables. One of these cables is a different color, or has a line running along it, to indicate different polarity. Insert the different colored (or lined) cable into the “+”
(positive, red) terminal on this unit and the speakers, and the other cable into the “–” (negative, black) terminal.
Be careful that the core of the speaker cable does not touch anything or come into contact with the metal areas of this unit. This may damage this unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit, “CHECK SP
WIRES!” will appear on the front panel display when this unit is switched on.

Listening to TV audio
To transmit sound from the TV to this unit, connect as followings according to the TV:
When using a TV that supports the Audio Return Channel function and HDMI Control function
When your TV supports both HDMI Control (e.g., Panasonic VIERA Link) and Audio Return Channel functions, audio/video output from the unit to the TV and audio output from the TV to the unit are possible using a single HDMI cable. The input source is switched automatically to match operations carried out on the TV, and that makes TV sound control easier to use. For the connections and settings, refer to “Single HDMI cable input to TV audio with Audio Return Channel function” (
p. 131).
When using a TV that supports the HDMI Control functions
When using a TV that supports HDMI Control functions (e.g., Panasonic VIERA Link), if HDMI Control functions are enabled on the unit, then input source can be switched automatically to match operations carried out on the TV. For the connections and settings, refer to “Switching the input source on this unit automatically when listening to TV audio” (
p. 130).
When using other TVs
To transmit sound from the TV to this unit, connect the TV’s audio output to the AUDIO1-4 jacks.
TV audio output Connection
Optical digital audio output Connect to the OPTICAL jack of the AUDIO1 with a fiber-optic cable.
Coaxial digital audio output Connect to the COAXIAL jack of the AUDIO2 with a digital audio pin
cable.
Analog stereo output Connect to one of the AUDIO1-4 with a stereo pin cable.
Select the input source connected via TV’s audio output jack to enjoy the TV sound. If the TV supports optical digital audio output, we recommend that you connect the TV audio output to the receiver’s AUDIO1 jack. Connecting to AUDIO1 allows you to switch the input source to AUDIO1 with just a single key operation using the SCENE function (

Multi-format player/External decoder
(7.1-channel output)
When you select “MULTI CH” as the input source, the digital sound field processor and tone control are
automatically disabled.
As this unit does not redirect signals input through the MULTI CH INPUT jacks to compensate for
missing speakers, make appropriate settings on the multi-format player or the external decoder that suit to the speaker configuration.
When the input source is switched to “MULTI CH,” images input from a component connected to the
AV1-7 or VIDEO AUX jacks can be displayed on a video monitor (
p. 86). If your DVD player does
not support multi-channel digital output, connect it to these input jacks.

Setting up the speaker parameters automatically (YPAO)

This unit is equipped with a Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) that adjusts the configuration, size, and volume balance of the speakers in order to provide an optimal sound field. Using YPAO allows you to automatically configure settings, such as adjusting speaker output and acoustic parameters to suit your listening room (the room in which this unit is placed). J1
Be aware of the following when using YPAO.

in the table indicates the sound program for CINEMA DSP.
Category: CLASSICAL
This sound field is suitable when listening to music sources such as CDs.
Hall in Munich This sound field simulates a concert hall with approximately 2500 seats in Munich, using
stylish wood for the interior finishing as normal standards for European concert halls. Fine, beautiful reverberations spread richly, creating a calming atmosphere. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the arena.
Hall in Vienna This is an approximately 1700-seat, middle-sized concert hall with a shoebox shape that is
traditional in Vienna. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections from all around the audience, producing a very full, rich sound.
Hall in Amsterdam The large, shoe box shaped hall seats about 2200 around the circle stage. Reflections are
rich and pleasing while the sound travels freely.
Church in Freiburg Located in the south of Germany, this grand, stone-built church has a pointed tower at 120
meters in height. Its long and narrow shape and the high ceiling enable the elongated reverberation time and limited initial reflection time. Thus, the rich reverberation rather than the sound itself reproduces the atmosphere of the church.
Church in Royaumont This program features the sound field created by the refectory (dining hall) of a beautiful
medieval Gothic monastery located in Royaumont on the outskirts of Paris.
Chamber This program creates a relatively wide space with a high ceiling like an audience hall in a
palace. It offers pleasant reverberations that are suitable for courtly music and chamber music.
Category: LIVE/CLUB
This sound field is suitable when listening to music sources such as CDs.
Sports This program allows the listeners to enjoy stereo sport broadcasts and studio variety
programs with enriched live feeling. In sports broadcasts, the voices of the commentator and sportscaster are positioned clearly at the center while the atmosphere of the stadium expands in an optimal space to offer the listeners a feeling of presence in the stadium.
Action Game This sound field is suitable for action games such as car racing, fighting games and FPS
games. The reality of, and emphasis on, various effects makes the player feel like they are right in the middle of the action, allowing for greater concentration. Use this program in combination with Compressed Music Enhancer for a more dynamic and strong sound field.
Roleplaying Game This sound field is suitable for role-playing and adventure games. This program adds depth
to the sound field for natural and realistic reproduction of background music, special effects and dialog from a wide variety of scenes. Use this program in combination with Compressed Music Enhancer for a more clear and spatial sound field.
Music Video This sound field offers an image of a concert hall for live performance of pop, rock and jazz
music. The listener can indulge oneself in a hot live space thanks to the presence sound field that emphasizes the vividness of vocals and solo play and the beat of rhythm instruments, and to the surround sound field that reproduces the space of a big live hall.
Recital/Opera This program controls the amount of reverberations at an optimum level and emphasizes the
depth and clarity of human voices. “Recital/Opera” offers the reverberations of an orchestra box in front the listener at the same time as providing the acoustic positioning and feeling of presence on the stage. The surround sound field is relatively moderate, but the data for concert hall effects are used to represent the inherent beauty of music. The listener will not be fatigued even after long hours of opera entertainment.
Village Vanguard The Jazz club is on 7th Avenue, New York. This small club with the low ceiling makes the
powerful reflections converge toward the stage located in the center.
Warehouse Loft The warehouse resembles some lofts in Soho. Sound reflects off the concrete walls clearly
with a lot of energy.
Cellar Club This program simulates a live house with a low ceiling and homey atmosphere. A realistic,
live sound field features powerful sound as if the listener is in a row in front of a small stage.
The Roxy Theatre This is the sound field of a rock music live house in Los Angeles, with approximately 460
seats. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the hall.
The Bottom Line This is the sound field at stage front in The Bottom Line, a famous New York jazz club once.
The floor can seat 300 people to the left and right in a sound field offering real and vibrant sound.

Standard This program creates a sound field emphasizing the surround feeling without disturbing the
original acoustic positioning of multi-channel audio such as Dolby Digital and DTS. It has been designed with the concept of an ideal movie theater, in which the audience is surrounded by beautiful reverberations from the left, right and rear.
Spectacle This program represents the spectacular feeling of large-scale movie productions. It
reproduces a broad theater sound field that matches cinemascope and wider-screen movies with an excellent dynamic range providing everything from very small sound effects to large, impressive sounds.
Sci-Fi This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the latest science
fiction and special effects-featuring movies. You can enjoy a variety of cinematographically created virtual spaces reproduced with clear separation between dialogue, sound effects and background music.
Adventure This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of action and adventure
movies. The sound field restrains reverberations but puts emphasis on reproducing a powerful space expanded widely to the left and right. The reproduced depth is also restrained relatively to ensure the separation between audio channels and the clarity of the sound.
Drama This sound field features stable reverberations that match a wide range of movie genres from
serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest but offer an optimum 3D feeling, reproducing effects tones and background music softly but cubically around clear words and center positioning in a way that does not fatigue the listener even after long hours of viewing.
Mono Movie This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources such as a classic movie in
an atmosphere of a good old movie theater. The program produces the optimum expansion and reverberation to the original audio to create a comfortable space with a certain sound depth.
2ch Stereo Use this program to mix down multi-channel sources to 2-channels. When multi-channel
signals are input, they are down mixed to 2-channels and output from the front left and right speakers.
7ch Stereo Use this program to output sound from all speakers. When you playback multi-channel
sources, this unit down-mixes the source to 2-channels, and then outputs the sound from all speakers. This program creates a larger sound field and is ideal for background music at parties, etc.
