y
The speaker layout above shows the standard ITU-R* speaker setting. ITU-R recommends that the front left and right speakers be placed at 30° from the central listening position, and that the surround left and right speakers be placed at between 60° and 80° from the central listening position.
*
ITU-R: for more information (see page 56).
FR

SR
Surround speakers (SR and SL)
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m (6 ft) above the floor.
Subwoofer
The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels, but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low­frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and DTS software. 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 front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.
1.8 m (6 ft)
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.

Speaker connections
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (colored) 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
• If you will use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set this unit’s speaker impedance setting to 6 ohms before using (see “IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch” on page 10).
• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the power of this unit is 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 speakers.
• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor.
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 “+” (colored) terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals.
4 Return the tab to secure the wire.
PREPARATION
Colored: positive (+)
Black: negative (–)
Cable tags
5 pairs of different colored cable tags are provided with this product. The colors of the cable tags and their respective speaker cables are as follows:
• Red: Front right speaker cable
• White: Front left speaker cable
• Green: Center speaker cable
• Gray: Surround right speaker cable
• Blue: Surround left speaker cable

reception.
Notes
• The AM loop antenna should be placed away from this unit and all speaker cords.
• The AM loop antenna should always be connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
• 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 the nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center about outdoor antennas.
Frequency Step (Asia and General
models only)
Because the interstation frequency spacing differs in different areas, set the FREQUENCY STEP (using SET MENU) according to the frequency spacing in your area (see page 45).
• North, Central and South America: 100 kHz/10 kHz
• Other areas: 50 kHz/9 kHz
Connecting the AM loop antenna

• After selecting a DSP program, press VOLUME/SELECT to switch the function of VOLUME/SELECT back to “volume”.
• There are 9 programs with sub-programs available with this unit. However, the selection depends on the input signal format and not all sub-programs can be used with all input signal formats.
• The acoustics of your listening room affect the sound field program. Minimize the sound reflections in your room to maximize the effect created by the program.
• When you select an input source, this unit automatically selects the last sound field program used with that source.
• When you set this unit in standby mode, it stores the current source and sound field program in memory and automatically selects them when you turn on the power again.
• If the unit receives a Dolby Digital or DTS signal when the input mode is set to AUTO, the CINEMA DSP sound field programs automatically switches to the appropriate decoding program.
• When the unit is reproducing a monaural source with PRO LOGIC, PRO LOGIC Enhanced, PRO LOGIC II Game or PRO LOGIC II Movie, no sound is output from the front and surround speakers. Sound can only be heard from the center speaker. (If CENTER SP in SPEAKER SET in the SOUND menu is set to “None”, the center channel sound is output from the front speakers.)
• Sampling frequencies higher than 48 kHz (except for DTS 96/ 24 signals) will be sampled down to 48 kHz, then sound field programs will be applied.
