The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert you to the
presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within
the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle
is intended to alert you to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that

PREPARATION
Preparing remote control
Installing batteries in the remote
control
1
1Take off the battery compartment cover.
2Insert the two supplied batteries (AAA, R03,
UM-4) according to the polarity markings (+
and –) on the inside of the battery
compartment.
3Snap the battery compartment cover back
into place.
Notes
• Change all batteries if you notice the following conditions:
– the operation range of the remote control narrows
– the transmit indicator does not flash or is dim
• Do not use old batteries together with new ones.
This may shorten the life of the new batteries or cause old batteries
to leak.
• Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline and
manganese batteries) together. Specification of batteries may be
different even though they look the same.
• If you find leaking batteries, discard the batteries immediately,
taking care not to touch the leaked material. If the leaked material
comes into contact with your skin or gets into your eyes or mouth,
rinse it away immediately and consult a doctor. Clean the battery
compartment thoroughly before installing new batteries.
• Dispose of the old batteries correctly in accordance with your local
regulations.
• If the remote control is without batteries for more than 2 minutes,
or if exhausted batteries remain in the remote control, the contents
of the memory may be cleared. In such a case, install new batteries
and set the remote control code.

■Front left and right speakers (FL and FR)
The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds
(stereo sound) and effect sounds. Place these speakers at
SW
an equal distance from the ideal listening position. When
using a screen, the appropriate top positions of the
speakers are about 1/4 of the screen from the bottom.
SR
SR
■Center speaker (C)
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds
(dialog, vocals, etc.). Place it halfway between the left and
right speakers. When using a TV, place the speaker just
above or just under the center of the TV with the front
surfaces of the TV and the speaker aligned. When using a
screen, place it just under the center of the screen.
■Surround left and right speakers (SL and SR)
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround
sounds.
FR
SW
Place them at the rear left and rear right facing the
listening position.
To obtain a natural sound flow in the 5.1-channel speaker
layout, place them slightly further back than in the 7.1channel speaker layout.
■Surround back left and right speakers (SBL
SR
and SBR) / Surround back speaker (SB)
The surround back left and right speakers are used for rear
SR
effect sounds. Place them at the rear of the room facing the
listening position at least 30 cm away from each other,
ideally at the same distance as that between the front left
and right speakers.
In the 6.1-channel speaker layout, surround back left and
right channel sound signals are mixed down and output
from the single surround back speaker.
FR
In the 5.1-channel speaker layout, surround back left and
right channel sound signals are output from the surround
SW
left and right speakers.
■Subwoofer (SW)
The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and lowfrequency effect (LFE) sounds included in Dolby Digital
SR
SR
and DTS signals. Use a subwoofer with a built-in
amplifier, such as the Yamaha Active Servo Processing
Subwoofer System. Place it exterior to the front left and
right speakers facing slightly inward to reduce reflections
from a wall.

Connections
Connecting the speaker cable
Caution
• A speaker cable is a pair of insulated cables running side by side in general. One of the cables is colored differently
or striped to indicate a polarity. Connect one end of the colored/striped cable to the “+” (red) terminal of this unit
and the other end to that of your speaker, and connect one end of the other cable to the “–” (black) terminal of this
unit and the other end to that of your speaker.
• Before connecting the speakers, be sure to disconnect the power cable.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or
speakers. If the circuit shorts out, “CHECK SP WIRES!” appears on the front panel display when this unit is turned on.
• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If images on the monitor are still distorted even when you use the magnetically
shielded speakers, place the speakers away from the monitor.
• Use speakers with an impedance of 6-ohm or larger. Set speaker impedance in “ADVANCED SETUP” before
connecting the speakers (see page 45).
■Connecting to the FRONT terminals
1Remove approximately 10 mm (0.4 in) of
insulation from the end of each speaker
cable and then twist bare wires of the cable
together so that they will not cause a short
circuits.

UX
This unit has a Yamaha Parametric Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO). With the YPAO, this unit automatically adjusts the
output characteristics of your speakers based on speaker position, speaker performance, and the acoustic characteristics
of the room. We recommend that you first adjust the output characteristics with the YPAO when you use this unit.
Caution
• Be advised that it is normal for loud test tones to be
output during the “Auto Setup” procedure. Do not
allow small children to enter the room during the
procedure.
• To achieve the best results, make sure the room is as
quiet as possible while the “Auto Setup” procedure is
in progress. If there is too much ambient noise, the
results may not be satisfactory.
y
• See page 39 for the “Manual Setup” procedure.
Using Auto Setup
1Check the following points.
Before starting the automatic setup, check the
following.
• All speakers and subwoofer are connected
properly.
• Headphones are disconnected from this unit.
• The video monitor is connected properly.
• This unit and the video monitor are turned on.
• This unit is selected as the video input source of the
video monitor.
• The connected subwoofer is turned on and the
volume level is set to about half way (or slightly
less).
• The crossover frequency controls of the connected
subwoofer are set to the maximum.

This unit has a parametric equalizer that adjusts the
output levels for each frequency range. The equalizer
is adjusted to produce a cohesive sound field based on
automatically measured speaker characteristics.
In “EQ Type,” you can select the following
parametric equalizer characteristics suitable for the
desired sound characteristics.

This adjusts all speakers to achieve natural sound.
Select this if sounds in the high frequency range seem
too strong when “EQ Type” is set to “Flat.”
