CONNECTIONS

Connecting speakers

This unit uses acoustic field effects and sound decoders to bring you the impact of a real movie theater or concert hall. These effects will be brought to you with ideal speaker positioning and connections in your listening environment.
Speaker channels and functions
Front left and right speakers
The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds (stereo sound) and effect sounds.
Ex.
Front speaker layout: Place these speakers at an equal distance from the ideal listening position in the front of the room. When using a projector screen, the appropriate top positions of the speakers are about 1/4 of the screen from the bottom.
Center speaker
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.).
Surround left and right speakers
The surround speakers are for effect and vocal sounds with the 5.1­channel speakers providing rear-area sounds. When used with 6.1/
7.1-channel (including surround back channel), sound for right and left rear-area is output.
Ex.
Surround speaker layout: Place the speakers at the rear of the room on the left and right sides facing the listening position. They should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position and with the speaker tops at a height of 1.5 – 1.8 m from the floor.
Surround back left and right speakers
Outputs the rear effect. When used with 6.1ch sound, sound from the left and right sound surround back speakers is mixed and output from a single speaker. When used with 5.1ch sound, sound from surround back speakers is distributed between the left and right surround speakers.
Surround back speaker setting: When used with 7.1ch sound, arrange the left and right speakers towards the listening position, to the rear of the listening position. Arrange the left and right speakers at least 30 cm apart. The same separation as with the front left and right speakers is optimum. When used with 6.1ch sound, arrange these to the rear of the listening position.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and low-frequency effect (LFE) sounds included in Dolby Digital and DTS. Use a subwoofer that is equipped with built-in amplifier.
Ex.
Subwoofer speaker layout: Place it exterior to the front left and right speakers facing slightly inward to reduce echoes from the wall.
Ex.
Center speaker layout: Place it halfway between the left and right front 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.

CONNECTIONS
Connecting speakers
Connecting speakers and subwoofer
Connect your speakers to their respective terminals on the rear panel.
CAUTION
Remove the AC power cable of this unit from the power outlet before connecting the speakers.
Generally speaker cables consist of two parallel insulated cables. One of these cables is a different color, or has a line running along it, to indicate different polarity. Insert the different colored (or lined) cable into the “+”
(positive, red) terminal on this unit and the speakers, and the other cable into the “-” (negative, black) terminal.
Be careful that the core of the speaker cable does not touch anything or come into contact with the metal areas of this unit. This may damage this unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit, “CHECK SP
WIRES!” will appear on the front panel display when this unit is switched on.

Listening to TV audio
To transmit sound from the TV to this unit, connect as followings according to the TV:
When using a TV that supports the Audio Return Channel function and HDMI Control function
When your TV supports both HDMI Control (Ex. Panasonic VIERA Link) and Audio Return Channel functions, audio/video output from the unit to the TV and audio output from the TV to the unit are possible using a single HDMI cable. The input source is switched automatically to match operations carried out on the TV, and that makes TV sound control easier to use. For the connections and settings, refer to “Single HDMI cable input to TV audio with Audio Return Channel function” (
p. 70).
When using a TV that supports the HDMI Control functions
When using a TV that supports HDMI Control functions (Ex. Panasonic VIERA Link), if HDMI Control functions are enabled on the unit, then input source can be switched automatically to match operations carried out on the TV. For the connections and settings, refer to “Switching the input source on this unit automatically when listening to TV audio” (
p. 69).
When using other TVs
To transmit sound from the TV to this unit, connect its AV1-6 or AUDIO1-2 jacks to the TV’s audio output jacks. Depending on the connection on TV, connect the TV’s audio output to the AV1-6 or AUDIO1-2.
TV audio output Connection
Optical digital audio output Connect to the OPTICAL jack of the AV1 or AV4 with a digital audio pin
cable.
Coaxial digital audio output Connect to the COAXIAL jack of the AV2 or AV3 with a fiber-optic cable.
Analog stereo output Connect to one of the AV5, AV6, AUDIO1, AUDIO2, or V-AUX with a
stereo pin cable.
Select the input source connected via TV’s audio output jack to enjoy the TV sound. If the TV supports optical digital audio output, we recommend that you connect the TV audio output to the receiver’s AV4 jack. Connecting to AV4 allows you to switch the input source to AV4 with just a single key operation using the SCENE function (
p. 30).

Improving AM reception
Connect this unit to an outdoor antenna with a 5-10 m vinyl-coated wire. Make sure the AM loop antenna is still connected. Connecting the GND jack can reduce noise. Connect the jack to a store-bought ground bar or copper plate with a vinyl-covered wire and bury this new attachment in moist ground.

Set up the speaker parameters automatically (YPAO)

This unit is equipped with a YPAO (Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer) that adjusts the status, size, and volume balance of the speakers in order to provide an optimal sound field. Using YPAO allows you to automatically configure settings for which specialist knowledge is usually needed, such as adjusting speaker output and acoustic parameters to suit your listening room (the room in which this unit is placed). J1
When you use YPAO, a test tone will be output from the speakers for approximately 3 minutes and acoustic measuring will be performed. When using YPAO, be careful of the following.
The test tone is output at high volume. Please refrain from using
this function at night when it may be a nuisance to others nearby.
Please take care that the test tone does not frighten any small
children.
You can view the operations of YPAO on the front panel display or on the OSD (On-Screen Display) displayed on your TV while you use it. This explanation uses references to the OSD display on your TV.
Check the following before using YPAO.
