■ 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

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.

■ 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.

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

and SBR) / Surround back speaker (SB)

The surround back left and right speakers are used for rear

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.

In the 5.1-channel speaker layout, surround back left and right channel sound signals are output from the surround

left and right speakers.

■ Subwoofer (SW)

The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and lowfrequency effect (LFE) sounds included in Dolby Digital

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.

For movie/TV program sources

Program Descriptions

Standard 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.

Spectacle 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.

Sci-Fi 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.

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

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.
