■ Front left and right speakers (FL and FR)

The front speakers output 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 outputs 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 output effect sounds 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 output 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 outputs 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.

Connecting the speaker cable

Connections

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.

• If your video monitor is a CRT, 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. You can also use 4-ohm speakers as the front speakers when you set “SP IMP.” to “6ΩMIN” (see page 55).

1 Remove approximately 10 mm 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.
