8 Optimizing the speaker settings automatically (YPAO)

The YPAO microphone (supplied) detects the status of speaker connections and the distance between these speakers and the listening position, and adjusts the volume balance and the tone settings automatically (YPAO: Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimizer).

• Be aware of the following when using YPAO.

- After completing the connection of a TV, speakers, and so on, start YPAO

measurement.

- The test tone is output at a high volume while measuring. Please take care that

the test tone does not frighten any small children. Also, avoid using YPAO at

night, so as to not make your neighbors troubled.

- Keep your room quiet while measuring.

- Do not connect headphones to the unit.

- YPAO can be performed by viewing the front display of the unit.

Preparation before using YPAO

1 Press RECEIVER to turn on the unit. 2 Turn on the TV, and then select the input source of

the TV to the video input from the HDMI OUT jack of the unit.

3 Turn on the subwoofer, and then set the volume of

the subwoofer to half. The cross-over frequency is set to maximum if it is present.
