PROFILE OF THIS UNIT
You are the proud owner of this Yamaha stereo receiver –an extremely sophisticated audio component. The Digital Sound Field
Processor (DSP) built into this unit takes full advantage of Yamaha’s undisputed leadership in the field of digital audio processing to
bring you a whole new world of listening experiences. Follow the instructions in this manual carefully when setting up your system,
and this unit will sonically transform your room into a wide range of listening environments –movie theater, concert hall, and so on.
In addition, you get incredible realism from Dolby-encoded video sources using the built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder.
Rather than tell you about the wonders of digital sound field processing, however, let’s get right down to the business of setting up
the system and trying out its many capabilities. Please read this operation manual carefully and store it in a safe place for later
reference.
Digital Sound Field Processing
What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced
sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to
the sound of a live performance, but chances are you’ll still
notice something missing: the acoustic environment of the live
concert hall. Extensive research into the exact nature of the
sonic reflections that create the ambience of a large hall has
made it possible for Yamaha engineers to bring you this same
sound in your own listening room, so you’ll feel all the sound of
a live concert.
What’s more, our technicians, armed with sophisticated
measuring equipment, have even made it possible to capture
the acoustics of a variety of venues such as an actual concert
hall, theater, etc. to allow you to accurately recreate one of
several actual live performance environments, all in your own
home.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
The Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder program lets you
experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Surround
movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic gets
its name from its professional-grade steering logic circuitry,
which provides greater effective channel separation for a much
higher degree of realism than the “passive” Dolby Surround
circuits found in today’s typical home audio/video equipment.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround provides a true center channel, so
that there are four independent channels, unlike passive Dolby
Surround which has in effect only three channels: left, right,
and rear. This center channel allows listeners seated in even
less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from
action on the screen while getting a stereo effect as well.
This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital
signal processing system. This system increases sound
stability at each channel and minimizes crosstalk between
channels compared to conventional analog Dolby signal
processing.
In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance
control. This circuit always presents you the best surround
conditions without performing manual adjustments.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround + DSP
You can also enjoy Dolby Pro Logic with two modes of Digital
Surround field processing. These combinations expand the
surround effect. One is the “ENHANCED” Dolby Pro Logic
Surround, which recreates the surround effect of the 35 mm
film movie theater.
The other is the combination of Dolby Pro Logic and the sound
field program “70 mm MOVIE THEATER”, which recreates the
listening experience of a 70 mm film theater.
Directional Enhancement Circuit + DSP
The newly featured directional enhancement circuit expands
and focuses the digital sound field by emphasizing position of
sound.
This effect puts you in the midst of the action, while centering
and focusing your attention to the screen. This circuit is
available on the sound field program “TV THEATER”.

SPEAKER SETUP FOR THIS UNIT
SPEAKERS TO BE USED
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5 speaker configuration. The speakers to be used with this unit
will be mainly front speakers, rear speakers, and a center speaker. (You can omit the center speaker. Refer to the “4-Speaker
Configuration” shown below.)
The front speakers are used for the output of the main source sound and the effect sound. They will probably be the speakers of
your present stereo speaker system. The rear speakers are used for the output of the effect sound. And the center speaker is
used for the output of the center sound (most important effects as well as dialogue) encoded with the Dolby Surround. The rear
and center speakers do not need to be equal in power to the front speakers. However, all the speakers should have high enough
power handling to accept the maximum output of this unit.
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION
5-Speaker Configuration
This configuration is the most effective and is the one that is
recommended. In this configuration, the center speaker is
necessary as well as the rear speakers. If the digital sound
field program is in DOLBY PRO LOGIC, ENHANCED or TV
THEATER mode conversations will be output from the center
speaker and the ambience will be excellent.
●
Set the center mode to the “NORMAL” or “WIDE” position.
(For details, refer to page 13.)
4-Speaker Configuration
The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If the
digital sound field program is in the DOLBY PRO LOGIC,
ENHANCED or TV THEATER mode, the center sound is
output from the left and the right front speakers. However, the
sound effect of other programs can be the same as that of the
5-speaker configuration.
●
Be sure to set the center mode to the “PHANTOM” position.
(For details, refer to page 13.)
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
The recommanded speaker configuration, the 5-speaker configuration, will require two speaker pairs: front speakers (your normal
stereo speakers), and rear speakers, plus a center speaker. When you place these speakers, refer to the following.
Front: In normal position. (The position of your present
stereo speaker system.)
Rear: Behind your listening position, facing slightly inward.
Nearly six feet (approx. 1.8 m) up from the floor.
Center: Precisely between the front speakers. (To avoid
interference with TV sets, use a magnetically shielded
speaker. If, however, it is not effective, keep the
speaker away from TV sets.)

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
●
Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following figure.
●
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal
strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience
poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.
Connecting the AM loop antenna
* The AM loop antenna should be placed apart from the main unit. The antenna may be hung on a wall.
* The AM loop antenna should be kept connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
GND terminal
For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the
GND terminal to a good grounding. A good grounding is a
metal stake driven into moist earth.
Notes
●
When connecting the indoor
FM antenna, make sure that
the grooved part of the
connector hole is facing
downward.
●
If you need an outdoor FM antenna to improve FM reception
quality, either a 300-ohm feeder or a coaxial cable may be
used. In locations troubled by electrical interference, a
coaxial cable is preferable.

Once you have completed these adjustments, you can
adjust whole sound level on your audio system by using the
VOLUME control (or the MASTER VOLUME keys on the
remote control transmitter).
●
If you use external power amplifiers, their volume controls
may also be adjusted to achieve proper balance.
●
In step 12, if the center mode is in the “PHANTOM” position,
the sound output level of the center speaker can not be
adjusted. This is because in this mode, the center sound is
automatically output from the left and right front speakers.

USING DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP)
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor, which allows you to expand and shape the audio
sound field from both the audio and video sources, for a theater-like experience in the listening/viewing room.
This digital sound field processor has 8 programs; 4 programs for audio sources and 4 programs for Audio/Video sources. You can
create an excellent audio sound field by selecting the suitable program and adding desired adjustments. In addition, when the
digital sound field program is in the DOLBY PRO LOGIC, ENHANCED or 70 mm MOVIE THEATER mode, the built-in automatic
input balance control functions. This presents you the best surround condition without manual adjustment.

Description of Each Sound Field Program
PROGRAM FEATURE
This program reproduces sources encoded with the Dolby Surround.
PRO LOGIC
The employment of the digital signal processing system improves crosstalk and transfers the sound source
more smoothly and precisely, compared to the conventional type. A stable movie sound field is recreated.
This program reproduces sources encoded with the Dolby Surround.
ENHANCED
Enhancing the “Normal” Dolby Pro Logic, the DSP technology simulates the multi-surround speaker
systems of a 35 mm film theater, thus widening the surrounded-sound field with greater presence.
70 mm MOVIE
The Yamaha DSP technology is ideally combined with the Dolby Pro Logic to present you incredible
THEATER
listening experience of the 70 mm film movie theater. This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the
sound design of the newest movies. The sound field is made according to the design of the newest movie
theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as much as possible. The three
dimensional feeling of the sound field is emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on the screen. You
can enjoy watching S.F.X., adventure movies, etc. with this program.
TV THEATER
This program simulates the sound field of a jazz or rock concert. By featuring the directional enhancement
circuit, vocals are oriented on the screen and the sound field is widely expanded. Your attention will be
focused on the screen in enthusiastic atmosphere, as if attending an actual jazz or rock concert.
ROCK CONCERT This program is suitable for rock music. A big, powerful sound is reproduced lively and dynamically.
JAZZ CLUB This is a small, cozy jazz club with a low ceiling. The sound is very close and intimate.
CHURCH
This program recreates the acoustic environment of a modern church with a high pointed dome and
columns along the sides. This interior produces a very few primary reflections.
CONCERT HALL
In this program, the center seems even more deeply behind the front speaker pair, creating an expansive,
large hall ambience.
ON/OFF
Whenever pressed, this switches on/off the built-in digital sound field processor (DSP). When the DSP is
on, a program name illuminates in the display and sound output is from the front, rear and (or) center
speakers. Conversely, no illumination of program name and no output from the rear and center speakers
show that the DSP is off.
Description of Dolby Pro Logic Surround
DOLBY PRO LOGIC SURROUND: This unit employs the
Dolby Pro Logic Surround system. This system is similar to
professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in movie theaters.
By employing a four-channel system, the Dolby Pro Logic
Surround system divides the input signals into four levels: the
left and right main channels, the center channel (to characterize
dialog), and the rear surround-sound channels (to characterize
sound effects, background noise and other ambient noise).
Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of commercially
available video cassettes and video discs as well. When you
play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on your home video
system, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode on this unit
decodes the signal and feeds the surround-sound effects.
The Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode may not be always
effective on video sources not encoded with Dolby Surround.
Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing
Corporation. Additionally licensed under one or more of the
following patents: U.S. number 3,950,590; Canadian numbers
1,004,603 and 1,037,877. “Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D
symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing

Follow step 1–6 shown in “OPERATIONS” on page 15.
Select the desired program that is suitable for the
source.
The corresponding indicator will illuminate.
If desired, adjust the delay time and the output level of
each speaker. (For details, refer to the corresponding
descriptions on page 22–23.)
Notes
●
If you prefer to cancel the selected program, press the
ON/OFF switch. The sound will be the normal 2-channel
stereo without surround sound effect.
●
In the ROCK CONCERT, JAZZ CLUB, CHURCH and
CONCERT HALL modes, no sound is heard from the center
speaker.
●
When a monaural sound source is played in the DOLBY
PRO LOGIC or ENHANCED mode, no sound is heard from
the front speakers and the rear speakers. Sound is heard
only from the center speaker. However, if the center mode
is in the PHANTOM, the front speakers output the sound of
the center speaker.
●
If you connect an external amplifier to this unit, see if it has
built-in surround sound or ambience circuitry. If it does,
then be sure that the surround or ambience circuitry on that
amplifier is off while you are using the digital sound field
processor’s Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoding function.
●
When this unit is in the Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode, if
the main-source sound is considerably altered by
overadjustment of the BASS, TREBLE controls or BASS
EXTENSION switch, the relationship between the center
and rear channels may produce an unnatural effect.

Adjustment of DELAY TIME
You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of
the source sound and the beginning of the effect sound with
the DELAY TIME control.
The DELAY TIME control is effective with all programs.
By applying more or less delay, sound effects, background
noise, and ambient noise coming at you from the rear speakers
can be enhanced or subdued for extra effect.
1. PRO LOGIC: from 15 to 30 milliseconds
(Preset value: 20 milliseconds)
2. ENHANCED: from 15 to 30 milliseconds

REMOTE CONTROL “LEARNING” FUNCTION
The keys on this remote control transmitter can be programmed to “learn” key-functions from other remote control transmitters. By
using this feature, this unit can then be used in place of one or more other remote control transmitters, thus making operation of
your various audio and video components more convenient. Use the included user program sheets to indicate a new function
learned for each key.
Note
There may occasionally be instances in which, due to the signal-coding and modulation employed by the other remote control
transmitter, this unit will not be able to “learn” its signals.
Set to the “LEARN” position.
Press a key on this unit where a new function will be
learned.
Press and hold the key (on the other remote control
transmitter) where the desired new function is.
When the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator stops illuminating,

successfully learned.
Set to the “USER” position.
Try operating your components.
Notes
●
When you operate the desired component with this remote
control transmitter, TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator will flash
steadily.
●
The originally preset function of a key is still available in the
USER position if a new function has not been learned to the
key.
●
Successful learning to a key results in the erasure of
previously learned functions and their replacement by the
newly learned ones.
●
If there is no more room in the memory area for a function to
be learned, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator will flash two
times. In this case, even if some keys are not occupied with
functions from other remote control transmitters, no further
learning is possible.
Memory back-up
All of the learned functions will be retained while you replace
the batteries. However, if no batteries are installed for a few
hours, the learned functions will be erased and will have to be
learned again.
