Establishing a wireless connection
Yamaha’s proprietary AirWired technology enables the wireless
connection of the center unit and subwoofer. Wireless connection
of the subwoofer allows for subwoofer installation without
concern for cables. When the transmitter (YIT-W12TX) is used,
iPods or computers can be connected wirelessly to play music
stored on these devices through this unit.
For details of YIT-W12TX, refer to “Safety and Accessory
Information” (separate booklet).
When playing content from a TV or Blu-ray disc player, the
center unit transmits audio signals that are received by the
subwoofer. When YIT-W12TX is used to play songs stored on an
iPod or computer, YIT-W12TX sends audio signals that are
received by the center unit and subwoofer.
The same group ID must be assigned to all components. By
default, the center unit, subwoofer, and YIT-W12TX are assigned
a group ID of A1. This group ID does not need to be changed.
Group IDs
The center unit, subwoofer, and YIT-W12TX can be assigned a
group ID from three possible sets: A1–A3, B1–B3, C1–C3.
Use set C1–C3 when playing music stored on a computer via
YIT-W12TX. For details of YIT-W12TX, refer to “Safety and
Accessory Information” (separate booklet).
In all other cases, select a group ID from set A1–A3, B1–B3, or
C1–C3 to achieve a stable wireless connection.
To prevent wireless connection of another AirWired Yamaha
sound system or device installed near this unit or the
YIT-W12TX, assign a different group ID to this unit and the
YIT-W12TX.

Auto setup for appropriate
surround effects (IntelliBeam)
Due to differences in room sizes and shapes, positioning of this
unit, and the lifestyle of users, settings for each channel must be
adjusted in order for this unit to provide the optimal listening
experience.
This unit is equipped with IntelliBeam, which automatically
adjusts settings for each channel. IntelliBeam offers two features,
“beam optimization” and “sound optimization”.
Beam optimization:
This feature optimizes the beam angle so that the parameter best
matches your listening environment.
Sound optimization:
This feature optimizes the beam delay, volume, and quality so
that the parameters best match your listening environment.
This unit performs these two automatic optimizations with the aid
of the supplied IntelliBeam microphone.
Notes
• The AUTO SETUP procedure may not be run successfully if this
unit is installed in one of the rooms described in “Conditions that
make it difficult for sound beams to achieve surround sound” on
page 11. The My Surround function can be used to enjoy rich
surround sound in these types of rooms as well. See “Changing
the audio output method for surround playback” (☞p. 36, 37) for
more information.
• Do not connect the IntelliBeam microphone to an extension
cable as doing so may result in an inaccurate sound optimization.
• After you have completed the AUTO SETUP procedure, be sure
to disconnect the IntelliBeam microphone.
• The IntelliBeam microphone is sensitive to heat.
– Keep the IntelliBeam microphone away from direct sunlight.
– Do not place the IntelliBeam microphone on top of this unit.
Installing the IntelliBeam microphone
Place the IntelliBeam microphone at your
normal listening position.
• Use the supplied cardboard microphone stand or a tripod to
place the IntelliBeam microphone at the same height as your
ears would be when you are seated.
• Position the IntelliBeam microphone so that it is parallel with
the floor.

A channel is an audio type that has been divided based on the
range and other characteristics.
Ex. 7.1 channel
• For front speakers, Left (1ch), Right (1ch)
• For center speaker (1ch)
• For surround speakers, Left (1ch), Right (1ch)
• For surround back speakers, Left (1ch), Right (1ch)
• For the subwoofer (1ch × 0.1* = 0.1ch)
* In contrast to a full 1-channel band, a component designed to
enhance low frequency sound for added effect.
Deep Color
Deep Color is a type of video signal that can be transmitted by the
HDMI jacks of this unit. Deep Color refers to the use of various
color depths in displays, up from the 24-bit depths in previous
versions of the HDMI specification. This extra bit depth allows
HDTVs and other displays go from millions of colors to billions
of colors and eliminate on-screen color banding for smooth tonal
transitions and subtle gradations between colors. The increased
contrast ratio can represent many times more shades of gray
between black and white. Also Deep Color increases the number
of available colors within the boundaries defined by the RGB or
YCbCr color space.
Digital Sound Projector
This front surround speaker system is a revolutionary system
capable of true surround sound. The Digital Sound Projector
synthesizes up to five channels of sound beams and outputs front,
center, and surround channel signals from the center unit. By
reflecting front and rear beams off of walls, this system enables
true surround sound. 7-channel playback can also be achieved by
combining front and surround signals.
This unit uses the subwoofer for an additional 0.1 channel. A
typical speaker system requires seven speakers (two front
speakers, a center speaker, two surround speakers, two surround
back speakers, and a subwoofer) in addition to an amplifier to
achieve 7.1-channel playback.
The sound image of the system
Dolby Digital
Digital surround sound system which is developed by Dolby
Laboratories provides completely independent multi-channel
audio. With 3 front channels (left, center, and right) and 2
surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides five full-range
audio channels. By using 2 channel stereo for the surround
speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and surround
sound environment are possible than with Dolby Surround.
Dolby Digital Plus
Dolby Digital Plus is an advanced audio technology developed
for high-definition programming and media including HD
broadcasts, and Blu-ray Disc. Selected as an audio standard for
Blu-ray Disc, this technology delivers multichannel sound with
discrete channel output. Supporting bitrates up to 6.0 Mbps,
Dolby Digital Plus can carry up to 7.1 discreet audio channels
simultaneously. Supported by HDMI and designed for the optical
disc recorders and AV receivers/amplifiers of the future, Dolby
Digital Plus also remains fully compatible with the existing
multichannel audio systems that incorporate Dolby Digital.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a new technology enabling discrete
multichannel playback from 2-channel or multi-channel sources.
There are three modes available: “Music mode” for music
sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources (for 2-channel sources
only) and “Game mode” for game sources.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is an advanced lossless audio technology
developed for high-definition disc-based media including Blu-ray
Disc. Selected as an audio standard for Blu-ray Disc, this
technology delivers sound that is bit-for-bit identical to the studio
master, offering a high-definition home theater experience.
Supporting bitrates up to 18.0 Mbps, Dolby TrueHD can carry up
to 8 discr
Dolby TrueHD also remains fully compatible with the existing

Glossary
DTS
Digital surround sound system developed by DTS, Inc., which
provides 5.1 channel audio. With an abundance of audio data, it is
able to provide authentic-sounding effects.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio is a high resolution audio
technology developed for high-definition disc-based media
including Blu-ray Disc. Selected as an audio standard for Blu-ray
Disc, this technology delivers sound that is virtually
indistinguishable from the original, offering a high-definition
home theater experience. Supporting bitrates up to 6.0 Mbps for
Blu-ray Disc, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio can carry up to
7.1 discrete channels of 24-bit/96 kHz audio simultaneously.
DTS-HD Master Audio
The lossless high quality audio format created for an optical disc
such as Blu-lay Disc. It is selected as an audio standard for
Blu-ray Disc. Supporting bitrates up to 24.5 Mbps for Blu-ray
Disc, DTS-HD High Master Audio can carry up to 7.1 discrete
channels of 24-bit/96 kHz audio simultaneously.
HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the industry
supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. When
used in combination with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection), HDMI provides a secure audio/video
interface that meets the security requirements of content
providers and system operators.
Sampling frequency
The number of sampling (process for digitalizing analog signals)
per second. In principle, the higher the sampling rate, the wider
the frequency range that can be played back, and the higher the
quantized bit rate, the finer the sound that can be reproduced.
Sound beam
The Digital Sound Projector features a number of compact beam
speakers installed in orderly rows. Optimized audio signals are
output as sound from each speaker for precise directional
focusing of sounds. These focused sounds are called sound
beams.
x.v.Color
x. v. Color is a type of video signal that can be transmitted by the
HDMI jacks of this unit. It is a more extensive color space than
sRGB, and allows the expression of colors that could not be
expressed before. While remaining compatible with the color
gamut of sRGB standards, “x.v.Color” expands the color space
and can thus produce more vivid, natural images. It is particularly
effective for still pictures and computer graphics.
Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog audio
signal is digitized, recorded, and transmitted without using any
compression. This is used as a method of recording CDs and
DVD audio. The PCM system uses a technique for sampling the
size of the analog signal per very small unit of time. Standing for
pulse code modulation, the analog signal is encoded as pulses and
then modulated for recording.
