What you can do with this unit
FEATURES ➤ What you can do with this unitEn4
Achieve true 3D surround sound including height
The sound image of the system
channel audio with the unit alone
Unrestricted playback of music over a network using
MusicCast CONTROLLER
Until now, digital sound projectors have reproduced a two-dimensional sound field with
five distinct sound beams: left front, right front, center, left surround, and right surround.
This unit reproduces a three-dimensional sound field offering a greater sense of
immersion and depth by directing additional two sound beams (left height and right
height) upward. It also enables playback in the DTS:X or Dolby Atmos format, which
uses height channel audio signals as input sources. It further incorporates CINEMA
DSP 3D, which produces a more effective sound field.
Dialog Lift function
When playing movies, this feature can be adjusted so that audio such as narratives and
dialog is output from the center speakers, as in a movie theater where speakers are
installed behind the screen, allowing for a sense of integration of conversation with the
movements of the actors (p. 42).
The free dedicated app for mobile devices, MusicCast CONTROLLER, allows you to
listen to music stored on mobile devices such smartphones, or on servers, or to listen to
Internet radio stations and many kinds of major streaming services.
This app also allows you to distribute content to other MusicCast-enabled devices for
synchronized playback.

• The SPM-K30 may not be available in some countries or regions.
• When the unit will be installed using the wall mount bracket, all installation work should be performed by a
qualified contractor or experienced retail staff. The customer should not attempt to install the unit
themselves. Improper installation may cause the unit to fall, resulting in personal injury.
• Installation must be secure enough to bear the weight of the unit and the wall mount bracket, possibly for
years to come, and must also be secure enough to withstand vibrations, such as those caused by
earthquakes. Improper installation may cause the unit to fall, resulting in personal injury.
• To prevent the unit from falling, attach it to a wall constructed of drywall (plasterboard).
• Be sure to use screws capable of supporting the weight of the wall mount bracket and the unit (with steps 2
and 7). Using items other than the specified screws, such as shorter screws, nails, or double-sided tape,
may cause the unit to fall, resulting in personal injury.
• To ensure safety, all screws must be tightened securely. Loose screws may cause the unit to fall, resulting
in personal injury.
• Be sure to leave adequate space for ventilation around the unit so that heat generated by the unit is allowed
to dissipate. Failure to provide adequate space around the unit may cause the unit to overheat internally,
resulting in a fire.
• Do not lean on the unit or apply excessive force to the top of the unit. Doing so may cause the unit to fall,
resulting in personal injury.
• Fix cables in place so that they will not become loose. If a foot or hand becomes accidentally entangled in,
or catches on, a loose cable, the unit may fall, resulting in personal injury.
• Once the unit is installed, safety checks should be conducted on a regular basis. When the unit is used
over an extended period of time, screws can become loose and the installation can weaken due to the
passage of time, vibrations, etc.
• Note that Yamaha cannot be held liable for accidents, including falling of the unit, resulting from improper
installation of the unit, or for damage to walls.

choose one of the following connections. We recommend using an HDMI connection if the video device has an HDMI output jack.
HDMI connection
Connect a video device to the unit with an HDMI cable (not supplied).
• This unit supports HDCP version 2.2, a copy protection technology. When using an HDCP 2.2-compliant
playback device, such as a set-top box, connect it to the unit via the HDMI IN 1 jack. When connecting
playback devices that do not support HDCP version 2.2, any HDMI IN jack (1–4) may be used.

The audio/video played on the video device will be output though the unit by switching
input to HDMI 1–4 using the HDMI 1–4 key on the remote control.
• Once the HDMI control function has been activated (p. 35), video and audio content from playback devices
can be output from the TV even when this unit is off (HDMI signal pass-through).
• Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo printed on it. A cable with a maximum length of 5 m is
recommended to prevent degradation of signal quality.
• For playback of 3D and 4K video content, use a high-speed HDMI cable.
• When audio from the video device cannot be output via the HDMI jack, use an optical cable to connect the
video device to the unit via the digital optical output jack on the video device and the OPTICAL jack on the
unit. If the video device is connected to the unit in this way, change “Audio Assign” to “Optical” in option
menu (p. 85).
Optical connection
Connect a video device to this unit via the optical cable. Next, connect the video
device’s video output to the TV’s video input.

Connecting a subwoofer
A subwoofer can be connected to the unit for use with the unit. There are two ways to
connect a subwoofer to the unit: use a third-party RCA monaural cable, or use the
wireless subwoofer kit SWK-W16 to connect via a wireless connection.
Connecting a subwoofer via cable
Use a third-party RCA monaural cable to connect the subwoofer to the unit via the
monaural input jack on the subwoofer and the SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the unit.
When connecting a Yamaha subwoofer equipped with a system connector, connect a
system control cable (or third-party 3.5mm monaural mini plug cable) to the SYSTEM
CONNECTOR on the unit. This connection is required to turn the unit and subwoofer on
and off at the same time.
