How to connect speakers
Connecting the speaker
Connect a speaker cable between the negative (–) terminal of the unit and the negative (–) terminal of the
speaker, and between the positive (+) terminal of the unit and the positive (+) unit of the speaker.
Remove the unit’s power cable from an AC wall outlet before connecting the speaker.
NOTICE
(
Prepare speaker cables in a place away from the unit, to avoid accidentally dropping wire strands into the unit's interior which
could result in a short circuit or malfunction of the unit.
(
Improper connecting of the speaker cables may cause a short circuit and also damage the unit or the speakers.
(
Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable touch one another.
(
Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable come into contact with the unit’s metal parts (rear panel and screws).
1Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation from the ends of the speaker
cable, and twist the bare wires of the cable firmly together.
2Loosen the speaker terminal.
3Insert the bare wires of the cable into the gap on the side of the terminal.
4Tighten the terminal.
This completes the connection.

[Search tag]#Q02 Connect TV
NOTE
(
Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo. We recommend using a cable as short as possible to prevent signal quality
degradation.
(
Use a Premium High Speed HDMI Cable or Premium High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet to enjoy 3D or 4K Ultra HD videos.
(
When using eARC/ARC, connect a TV with an HDMI cable that supports eARC/ARC (such as a High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet).
(
You may need setting on the TV. Refer to the instruction manual for the TV.
Using eARC/ARC function
n
If your TV supports eARC/ARC, the TV audio is played back on the unit with only one HDMI cable. When using
ARC, set the HDMI Control function to “On”.
NOTE
(
“ARC” is an abbreviation of Audio Return Channel. “ARC” allows that the TV audio is played back on AV products (such as AV
receiver, sound bar), by connecting the HDMI input jack that supports ARC of your TV to the HDMI OUT jack that supports ARC of
your AV products with only an HDMI cable, without a digital optical cable.
(
“eARC” is an abbreviation of enhanced Audio Return Channel. “eARC”, enhanced the function of ARC, supports uncompressed 5.1channel via compatible TV with the HDMI cable.

Configuring the speaker settings
Flow of the speaker configurations
Before using the unit, adjust the speaker settings such as volume balance and acoustic parameters. With the
supplied YPAO microphone, the unit detects speaker connections and measures the distances from them to
your listening position(s) that is measuring position(s). And then, the unit automatically optimizes the
speaker settings such as volume balance and acoustic parameters. (YPAO: Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic
Optimizer)
NOTE
(
During the measuring process, test tones are output at high volume. You cannot adjust the volume.
(
During the measuring process, stay in a back corner of the room and note the following for accurate measurement.
(
Keep the room as quiet as possible.
(
Do not block sound between the speakers and the YPAO microphone.
(
Do not connect headphones.
1Select the unit’s speaker impedance settings as necessary.
2Configure the corresponding speaker settings.
3Set the volume of the subwoofer to half. If the crossover frequency is adjustable,
set it to maximum.
4Place the YPAO microphone at your listening position (same height as your ears).
We recommend the use of a tripod as a microphone stand and adjust your listening position
(same height as your ears). You can use the tripod screws to stabilize the microphone.

clearly at the center, while the atmosphere inside the stadium is realistically conveyed by
the peripheral delivery of the sounds of the fans in a suitable space.

of, and emphasis on, various effects makes the player feel like they are right in the middle of
the action, allowing for greater concentration. Use this program in combination with
Compressed Music Enhancer for a more dynamic and strong sound field.

the original acoustic positioning of multichannel audio. Its design is based on the concept of
the ideal movie theater, in which the audience is surrounded by beautiful reverberations
from the left, right, and rear.
This program delivers the scale and grandeur of spectacular movie productions. It delivers
an expansive sound space to match the cinemascope wide-screen, and boasts a broad
dynamic range, providing everything from small delicate sounds to powerful loud booms.
This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the latest Sci-Fi and
SFX movies. You can enjoy a variety of cinematographically created virtual spaces
reproduced with clear separation between dialogue, sound effects, and background music.
This program is ideal for reproducing the sound design of action and adventure movies
precisely. The sound field restrains reverberations, but puts emphasis on reproducing a
sensation of expansiveness on both sides, powerful space expanded widely to the left and
right. The restrained depth creates a clear and powerful space, while also maintaining the
articulation of the sounds and the separation of the channels.
This program features stable reverberations that match a wide range of movie genres, from
serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest, but suitably
stereophonic. The sound effects and background music are reproduced with a gentle echo
that does not impinge on the articulation of the dialogue. You’ll never get tired listening for
long periods.
This program reproduces monaural video sources, such as classic movies, in an atmosphere
of a good old movie theater. The program creates a pleasant space with depth, by adding
breadth and the appropriate reverberation to the original audio.

stations automatically.

DAB uses digital signals for clearer sound and more stable reception compared to analog signals. The unit can also receive DAB+
(an upgraded version of DAB) that allows for more stations using MPEG-4 HE-AAC v2 audio codec, which has a more efficient
transmission method.
(
Be sure to check the DAB coverage in your area in that not all areas are currently being covered. For a list of nationwide DAB
statuses and worldwide DAB frequencies, check WorldDMB online at http://www.worlddab.org/.

start an initial scan again.

desired DAB channel label. The reception strength of DAB channel label is displayed in 0 (none) to 100 (best).
