Specifying the initial volume level
By adjusting this parameter, you can automatically control
the initial volume level regardless of the recording level of
the audio source.
VOLUME MENU → INIT. VOL. (page 70)
Adjusting the dynamic range
The dynamic range is the difference between the
minimum and maximum amplitude. The higher the
dynamic range, the more accurate the sound reproduction
for bitstream signals. You can adjust the dynamic range
for speakers and headphones individually.
SOUND MENU → DYNAMIC RANGE (page 71)
Adjusting the audio and video synchronization
Sometimes, depending on your video source component,
video is delayed relative to audio due to processing
problems. In this case, you need to manually adjust the
audio delay to keep it synchronized with the video. If you
connect the video source component to this unit using an
HDMI connection and your component supports the
LIPSYNC feature, you can adjust the audio/video
synchronization automatically.

Placing speakers
The speaker layout below shows the speaker setting we recommend.
y
• 7.1-channel speaker layout is highly recommended for playback of the high definition digital audio sources (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD
Master Audio, etc.) with sound field programs.
• We recommend that you add the presence speakers for the effect sounds of the CINEMA DSP sound field program.

■ Speaker types
Front left and right speakers (FL and FR)
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus
effect sounds. Place these speakers at 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.
Surround left and right speakers (SL and SR)
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround
sounds.
For 5.1-channel speaker layout, place these speakers
farther back compared with the placement in the 7.1channel speaker layout.
Surround back left and right speakers (SBL and
SBR) / Surround back speaker (SB)
The surround back speakers supplement the surround
speakers and provide more realistic front-to-back
transitions.
For 6.1-channel speaker layout, surround back left and
right channel signals are mixed down and output at the
single surround back speaker by configuring the “SUR.B
L/R SP” setting (page 68).
For 5.1-channel speaker layout, surround back left and
right channel signals are output at the surround left and
right speakers by configuring the “SUR.B L/R SP” setting
(page 68).
Subwoofer (SW)
The use of a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, 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 reproducing the high
fidelity sound of the LFE (low-frequency effect) channel
included in bitstreams and multi-channel PCM sources.
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.
■ Presence left and right speakers
(PL and PR)
The presence speakers supplement the sound from the front
speakers with extra ambient effects produced by the sound
field programs (page 38). We recommend that you use the
presence speakers especially for the CINEMA DSP sound
field programs. To use the presence speakers, connect the
speakers to SP1 speaker terminals and then set
“PRESENCE SP” to “YES” (page 68).

PREPARATION
For other speaker combinations
You can enjoy multi-channel sources with sound field
programs by using a speaker combination other than
the 7.1/6.1/5.1-channel speaker combinations.
Use the automatic setup feature (page 29) or set the
“SPEAKER MENU” parameters (page 67) to output
the surround sounds at the connected speakers.
English
11 En
Connections
Connecting speakers
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty,
this unit cannot reproduce the input sources accurately.
Caution
• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit is turned off (page 25).
• 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 speaker still creates interference with the monitor, place the
speakers away from the monitor.
• If you are to use 6-ohm speakers, be sure to set “SPEAKER IMP.” to “6Ω MIN” before using this unit (page 25).
You can also use 4-ohm speakers as the front speakers (page 93).
Notes
• A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a
stripe, groove or ridge. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red) terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the
plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals.
• You can connect both surround back and presence speakers to this unit, however they do not output sound simultaneously. This unit
automatically switches the presence speakers and surround back speakers depending on the input sources and the selected sound field
programs.

Notes
• Be sure to make the same type of video connections as those made for your TV if the video conversion is disabled. For example, if you
connected your TV to the VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack of this unit, connect other components to the VIDEO jacks.
• Check the copyright laws in your country to record from CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright
laws.
• If you connect your DVD player to both the OPTICAL and COAXIAL jacks, priority is given to the signals input at the COAXIAL
jack.
• OSD signals are not output at the DVR OUT and VCR OUT jacks and cannot be recorded.
• To make a digital connection to a component other than the default one assigned to each DIGITAL INPUT or DIGITAL OUTPUT
jack, configure the “I/O ASSIGNMENT” setting (page 74).
• When connecting a turntable with a low-output MC cartridge to the PHONO jack, use an in-line boosting transformer or MC-head
amplifier.
• Connect your turntable to the GND terminal of this unit to reduce noise in the signal.
PREPARATION
■ Connecting an external amplifier
This unit has more than enough power for any home use.
However, if you want to add more power to the speaker
output or if you want to use another amplifier, connect an
external amplifier to the PRE OUT jacks. Each PRE OUT
jack outputs the same channel signals as the
corresponding SPEAKERS terminals.
Notes
• When you make connections to the PRE OUT jacks, do not
make any connections to the SPEAKERS terminals.
• Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on
the subwoofer.

■ Connecting a multi-format player or an
external decoder
This unit is equipped with 6 additional input jacks
(FRONT L/R, CENTER, SURROUND L/R and
SUBWOOFER) for discrete multi-channel input from a
multi-format player, external decoder, etc. If you set
“INPUT CH” to “8ch” (page 75), the analog audio input
jacks assigned as “FRONT” can be used as the front
channel input jacks.
Notes
• When you select “MULTI CH” as the input source, the digital
sound field processor is automatically disabled.
• Since this unit does not redirect signals input at the MULTI CH
INPUT jacks to accommodate for missing speakers, connect at
least a 5.1-channel speaker system when using this feature.
