e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in any

way, and

f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in perfor-

mance - this indicates a need for service.

Placing speakers

The speaker layout below shows the speaker setting we recommend. You can use it to enjoy the CINEMA DSP and multi-channel audio sources.

■ 7.1-channel speaker layout

7.1-channel speaker layout is highly recommended for playback the sound of high definition audio formats (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, etc.) as well as the conventional audio sources with sound field programs. See page 14 for connection information.

We recommend that you also add the presence speakers for the effect sounds of the CINEMA DSP sound field program. See page 13 for details.

Speaker indications

FL/FR: Front left/right C: Center SL/SR: Surround left/right SBL/SBR: Surround back left/right SW: Subwoofer

Front left and right speakers

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

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

The surround speakers are used for effect and surround sounds.

Surround back left and right speakers

The surround back speakers supplement the surround speakers and provide more realistic front-to-back transitions.

Subwoofer(s)

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 Dolby Digital and DTS sources. You can connect one or two subwoofer(s) to this unit. When you use two subwoofers, you can enjoy deeper bass sound. 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.

When you use two subwoofers, select the same type of the subwoofer as another and set these subwoofers as same sound characteristics. Place each subwoofer at the same distance from the listening position. The signal output at the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT 2 is the same as the one output at the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT 1 jack.

The functions and settings of each speaker are the same as those for the 7.1-channel speaker layout (see page 11).

Surround back speaker

Connect a single surround speakers to the SURROUND BACK SINGLE speaker terminal and place the single surround back speaker behind the listening position. The surround back left and right channel signals are mixed down and output at the single surround back speaker when you set “SUR.B L/R SP” to “SMLx1” or “LRGx1” (see page 86).

Front left and right speakers Center speaker Subwoofer(s)

The functions and settings of each speaker are the same as those for the 7.1-channel speaker layout (see page 11).

Surround left and right speakers

Connect the surround speakers to the SURROUND speaker terminals even if you place the surround speakers behind the listening position. For the smooth and unbroken sound field behind the listening position, place the surround left and right speakers farther back compared with the placement in the 7.1-channel speaker layout. The surround back channel signals are directed to the surround left and right speakers when “SUR.B L/R SP” is set to “NONE” (see page 86).

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 (see page 32) or set the “SPEAKER SET” parameters in “MANUAL SETUP” (see page 85) to output the surround sounds at the connected speakers.

■ Using presence speakers

The presence speakers supplement the sound from the front and surround back speakers with extra ambient effects produced by the sound field programs (see page 48). You can adjust the vertical position of dialogues with using the presence speakers (see page 73). To use the presence speakers, connect the speakers to the EXTRA SP terminal (see page 14) and set “EXTRA SP ASSIGN” to “PRESENCE” (see pages 33 and 85).

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 the AC power plug is disconnected from the AC wall outlet.

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or the speakers. If the speaker wires are short-circuited, “CHECK SP WIRES” appears in the front panel display when you turn on this unit.

• Use the 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 “SP IMP.” to “6Ω MIN” before using this unit (see page 28). 4 ohm speakers can be also used as the front speakers. For details about the speaker impedance setting, see page 106.

Note

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.

■ For the 7.1-channel speaker setting

EXTRA SP terminals

Connect the alternative front speaker system (FRONT B), front speaker systems in another room (ZONE B), presence speakers, or Zone 2 speakers. To select the function of the speakers connected to the EXTRA SP terminals, set the “EXTRA SP ASSIGN” parameter in “SOUND MENU” (see page 85).

You can also select the function of the speakers connected to the EXTRA SP terminals in “AUTO SETUP” (see page 33).

■ 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 connections to the SPEAKERS terminals.

• The signals output at the FRONT PRE OUT jacks are affected by the TONE CONTROL settings (see page 52).

• Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on the subwoofer (see page 52).

• Some signals may not be output at the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jacks depending on the settings for “SPEAKER SET” (see page 85).

This sound field simulates a concert hall with approximately 2500 seats in Munich, using stylish wood for the interior finishing as normal standards for European concert halls. Fine, beautiful reverberations spread richly, creating a calming atmosphere. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the arena.

This is an approximately 1700-seated, middle-sized concert hall with a shoebox shape that is traditional in Vienna. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections from all around the audience, producing a very full, rich sound.

This program creates a relatively wide space with a high ceiling like an audience hall in a palace. It offers pleasant reverberations that are suitable for courtly music and chamber music.

This sound field has been suitable for action games such as car racing and FPS games. It uses the reflection data that limits the effects range per channel in order to offer a powerful playing environment with a being-there feeling by enhancing various effects tones while maintaining a clear sense of directions.

This sound field has been suitable for role-playing and adventure games. It combines the sound field effects for movies and the sound field designs for “Action Game” to represent the depth and 3D feeling of the field during play, while offering movie-like surround effects in the movie scenes in the game.

This sound field offers an image of a concert hall for live performance of pop, rock and jazz music. The listener can indulge oneself in a hot live space thanks to the presence sound field that emphasizes the vividness of vocals and solo play and the beat of rhythm instruments, and to the surround sound field that reproduces the space of a big live hall.

■ For movie sources

You can select the desired decoder used with following sound field program (except “Mono Movie”). See page 77 for details.

Notes

• The available sound field parameters and the created sound fields differ depending on the input sources and the settings of this unit.

• “DIALG.LIFT” is available only when “EXTRA SP ASSIGN” in “SPEAKER SET” is set to “PRESENCE” (see page 85).

This program creates a sound field emphasizing the surrounding feeling without disturbing the original acoustic positioning of multi-channel audio such as Dolby Digital and DTS. It has been designed with the concept of “an ideal movie theater”, in which the audience is surrounded by beautiful reverberations from the left, right and rear.

This program represents the spectacular feeling of large-scale movie productions. It reproduces a broad theater sound field matching the cinemascope and wider-screen movies with an excellent dynamic range from very small to extremely large sound.

This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the latest science fiction and special effects-featuring movies. You can enjoy a variety of cinematographically created virtual spaces reproduced with clear separation between dialog, sound effects and background music.

Sound field programs

Program Descriptions

This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of action and adventure movies.

Adventure

Drama

Mono Movie

The sound field restrains reverberations but puts emphasis on reproducing a powerful space expanded widely to the left and right. The reproduced depth is also restrained relatively to ensure the separation between audio channels and the clarity of the sound.

This sound field features stable reverberations that match a wide range of movie genres from serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest but offer an optimum 3D feeling, reproducing effects tones and background music softly but cubically around clear words and center positioning in a way that does not fatigue the listener even after long hours of viewing.

This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources such as a classic movie in an atmosphere of a good old movie theater. The program produces the optimum expansion and reverberation to the original audio to create a comfortable space with a certain sound depth.

USING BLUETOOTH™ COMPONENTS

Using Bluetooth™ components

You can connect a Yamaha Bluetooth adapter (such as YBA-10, sold separately) to the DOCK terminal of this unit and enjoy the music contents stored in your Bluetooth component (such as a portable music player) without wiring between this unit and the Bluetooth component. You need to perform “pairing” the connected Bluetooth adapter and your Bluetooth component in advance.

Pairing the Bluetooth™ adapter and your Bluetooth™ component

Pairing must be performed when using a Bluetooth component with the Bluetooth adapter connected to this unit for the first time or if the pairing data has been deleted. “Pairing” refers to the operation of registering a Bluetooth component for Bluetooth communications.

• You only need the pairing operation for the first time that you use the Bluetooth component with the Bluetooth adapter.

• Pairing requires operations on this unit and on the other component with which Bluetooth communications are to be established. If necessary, refer to the other component’s operating instructions.

There are two pairing methods: pairing by using “START PAIRING” in “SET MENU” and quick pairing.

■ Pairing by using “SET MENU”

Use this feature to perform pairing with the video monitor. Select “START PAIRING” in “INPUT MENU”. See page 95 for details.

■ Quick pairing

To ensure security, a time limit of 8 minutes is set for the pairing operation. You are recommended to read and fully understand all the instructions before starting.

Note

If the Bluetooth adapter is not connected to the DOCK terminal of this unit, “No BT adapter” appears in the front panel display.

4 Check that the Bluetooth component detects

the Bluetooth adapter.

If the Bluetooth component detects the Bluetooth adapter, “YBA-10 YAMAHA” (example) appears in the Bluetooth device list.

5 Select the Bluetooth adapter in the Bluetooth

device list and then enter the pass key “0000” on the Bluetooth component.

When the pairing procedure is successful, “Completed” appears in the front panel display.

Note

The Yamaha Bluetooth adapter can be paired with up to eight Bluetooth components. When pairing is conducted successfully with a ninth component and the pairing data is registered, the pairing data for the least recently used other component is cleared.

• The source connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks of this unit cannot be recorded.

• The XM Satellite Radio and SIRIUS Satellite Radio signals cannot be output at the AUDIO OUT (REC) jacks.

• Digital signals input at the DIGITAL INPUT jacks are not output at the analog AUDIO OUT (REC) jacks for recording.

• A given input source is not output on the same AUDIO OUT (REC) channel.

• S-video and composite video signals pass independently through the video circuits of this unit. Therefore, when recording or dubbing video signals input from a video source component that provides only an S-video or a composite video signal, you can only record an S-video or a composite video signal on your VCR.

• The analog audio signals input at the DOCK terminal can be output at the analog AUDIO OUT (REC) jacks for recording.

• Check the copyright laws in your country to record from CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright laws.

Advanced sound configurations

■ Basic configuration of sound field programs

Each sound field program has some parameters defining the characteristics of the program. To customize the selected sound field program, adjust “DSP LEVEL” and/ or “DIALG.LIFT” first, and then try other parameters.

To change sound field parameter settings, see page 72 for details.

Adjusting the effect sound level of the sound field programs (DSP LEVEL)

Sound field programs add effect sounds (DSP effect sounds) to the original source sound to create sound field in the listening room. Use the “DSP LEVEL” parameter to adjust the level of the effect sounds.

The DSP effect

sound level is low.

Adjust “DSP LEVEL” in the following cases:

Increase the value of “DSP LEVEL”

• The effect sound of the selected sound field

program is too weak.

• You cannot recognize any difference between the

sound field programs.

Decrease the value of “DSP LEVEL”

• The sound is vague.

• You feel that the additional sound effect is

excessive.

Control range: –6 dB to +3 dB

The DSP effect sound

level is high.

Adjusting the vertical dialogue position (DIALG.LIFT)

Use this feature to adjust the vertical position of the dialogues in movies. The ideal position of the dialogues is at the center of the video monitor screen.

The ideal dialogue position.

If the dialogues are heard at the lower position of the video monitor screen, increase the value of “DIALG.LIFT”.

Move up to the ideal dialogue position.

Choices: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 “0” (initial setting) is the lowest position, and “5” is the highest position.

Notes

• “DIALG.LIFT” is only available only “EXTRA SP ASSIGN” is set to “PRESENCE” (see page 72).

• You cannot move the dialogue position down from the initial dialogue position.

■ Sound field parameters for the advanced configurations

Use the following sound field parameters to customize sound field programs in detail.

To change sound field parameter settings, see page 72 for details.

Sound field parameter Features

INIT.DLY P.INIT.DLY S.INIT.DLY SB INI.DLY

Initial delay. Presence, surround, and surround back sound field initial delay. Changes the apparent distance from the source sound by adjusting the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection heard by the listener. The smaller the value, the closer the sound source seems to the reflection face.

When you adjust the initial delay parameters, we also recommend that you adjust the corresponding room size parameters likewise. This adjustment is especially effective for the CINEMA DSP programs.

ROOM SIZE P.ROOM SIZE S.ROOM SIZE SB ROOM SIZE

LIVENESS S.LIVENESS SB LIVENESS

Room size. Presence, surround, and surround back room size. Adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround sound field becomes. As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between the original reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from one to two doubles the apparent length of the room.

When you adjust the room size parameters, we also recommend that you adjust the corresponding initial delay parameters likewise. This adjustment is especially effective for the CINEMA DSP programs.

Control range: 0.1 to 2.0

Liveness. Surround and surround back sound field liveness. Adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early reflections decay. The early reflections of a sound source decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall surfaces than in one which has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces is referred to as “dead”, while a room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as “live”. This parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate and thus the “liveness” of the room.

Note

The adaptive dynamic range control feature does not function when this unit is in the Pure Direct mode (see page 52).

Maximum volume MAX VOL.

Use this feature to set the maximum volume level in the main zone. This feature is useful to avoid the unexpected loud sound by mistake. For example, the original volume range is –80.0 dB to +16.5 dB. However, when “MAX VOL.” is set to –5.0 dB, the volume range becomes –80.0 dB to –5.0 dB. Control range: –30.0 dB to +15.0 dB, +16.5 dB Control step: 5.0 dB

Notes

• When this unit is in the auto setup procedure, the volume level is automatically set to 0 dB regardless of the current “MAX VOL.” setting.

• The “MAX VOL.” setting takes priority over the initial volume setting. For example, if “INI.VOL.” is set to –20.0 dB and “MAX VOL.” is set to –30.0 dB, the volume level is automatically set to –30.0 dB when you turn on the power of this unit next time.

• Use “MAX VOL.” in “ZONE SET” to set the initial volume level in Zone 2.
