This unit has been designed to provide the best sound-
field quality with a 6-speaker system, using left and right
main speakers, left and fight rear speakers, and a center
and rear center speakers. If you use different brands of
speakers (with different tonal qualities) in your system,
the tone of a moving human voice and other types of
sound may not shift smoothly. We recommend that you
use speakers from the same manufacturer or speakers
with the same tonal quality.
The main speakers are used for the main source sound
plus the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers
from your present stereo system. The rear speakers are
used for the effect and surround sounds, and the center
speaker is for the center 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.
The main speakers should be high-performance models
and have enough power-handling capacity to accept the
maximum output of your audio system. The other
speakers do not have to be equal to the main speakers. For
precise sound localization, however, it is ideal to use the
models of equivalent performance with the main
speakers.
Refer to the following diagram when you place the
speakers.
Center speaker speaker (R)
Rearspeaker(R)
Main
speaker(L)
1.8 m (6 feet)
/
speaker
Rear speaker (L)
• Main speakers
Place the left and right main 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
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front
face of your video monitor. Place the speaker as close to
the monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the
monitor and centrally between the main speakers.
• Use of a subwoofer expands your
sound field
It is also possible to further expand your system with the
addition of a subwoofer. The use of a subwoofer is
effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from
any or all channels, but also for reproducing the LFE
(low-frequency effect) channel with high fidelity when
the Dolby Digital signal or the DTS signal is played back.
The YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer
System is ideal for natural and lively bass reproduction.
• If the center speaker is not used, the center channel sound will
be heard from the left and fight main speakers. In this case,
"IA CENTER SP" on the SET MENU is set to NONE (see
page 56 for details).
• Rear speakers
Place these speakers behind your listening position,
facing slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (6 feet) above the
floor.
• Rear center speaker
Place the rear center speaker in the center between the left
and right rear speakers at the same height from the floor
as the rear speakers.
• Subwoofer
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 main speakers. Turn it
slightly toward the center of the room to reduce the wall
reflections.
Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of
speakers still creates the interference with a monitor,
place the speakers away from the monitor.

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.
• Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear panel of this unit.
° Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could
damage this unit and/or speakers.
If necessary, use the SET MENU to change the speaker mode settings according to the number and size of the speakers
in your configuration after you finish connecting your speakers.
• Speaker cables
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables
running side by side. One of the cables is colored or
shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge.
[] Remove approximately 10 mm (318") of
insulation from each of the speaker cables.
_._ Twist the exposed wires of the cable
together to prevent short circuits.
Connecting to the SPEAKERS terminals
Red: positive (+) [] Unscrew the knob.
Black: negative (-) _ [] Insert one bare wire into the hole in the side
of each terminal.
[] Tighten the knob to secure the wire.
Banana plug
(U.S.A., Canada, Australia, China and General models only)
• Banana plug connections are also possible. First, tighten the
knob and then insert the banana plug connector into the end of
the corresponding terminal.
• MAIN SPEAKERS terminals
One or two speaker systems can be connected to these terminals. If you use only one speaker system, connect it to either
of the MAIN A or B terminals.
• REAR SPEAKERS terminals
A rear speaker system can be connected to these terminals.
• CENTER SPEAKER terminals
A center speaker can be connected to these terminals.
• REAR CENTER SPEAKER terminals

When using a subwoofer with built-in amplifier, including the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System,
connect the input jack of the subwoofer system to this jack. Low bass signals distributed from the main, center and/or
rear channels are directed to this jack if they are assigned to this jack. (The cut-off frequency of this jack is 90 Hz.) The
LFE (low-frequency effect) signals generated when Dolby Digital or DTS is decoded are also directed if they are
assigned to this jack.
• Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on the subwoofer. It is also possible to adjust the volume level by using the
remote control of this unit (see ADJUSTING THE LEVEL OF THE EFFECT SPEAKERS on page 66).

• About the video jacks
There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the VIDEO jacks are the conventional composite video
signals. Video signals input through the S VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals.
The S-video signals achieve high-quality color reproduction. Video signals input through the COMPONENT VIDEO
jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (PB/CB, P_dC_) video signals. The jacks are also separated
into three for each signal. The description of the component video jacks may be different depending on the component
(e.g. Y, C_, CR/Y, PB, P_dY, B-Y, R-Y etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction.
If your video component has an S-video output or component video output, you can connect it to this unit. Connect the
S-video signal output jack on your video component to the S VIDEO jack or connect the component signal output jacks
on your video component to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

This section explains how to adjust the speaker output
levels by using the test tone generator. When this
adjustment is made, the output level heard at the listening
position will be the same from each speaker. This is
important for the best performance of the digital sound
field processor, and various decoders (Dolby Digital,
Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS, DTS ES, and
DTS Neo: 6).
• Since this unit cannot enter the test mode while headphones are
connected to this unit, be sure to unplug the headphones from
the PHONES jack when using the test tone.
