DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP)
The Digital Sound Field Processor (DSP) built into this system takes advantage of Yamaha’s undisputed leadership in
the field of digital audio processing to bring you a whole new world of listening experiences. Follow the instructions in
this manual carefully when setting up your system, and this unit will sonically transform your room into a wide range of
listening environments –movie theater, concert hall, and so on. In addition, you get incredible realism from sources
encoded with Dolby Surround using the built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder.
Please read this operation manual carefully and store it in a safe place for later reference.
Digital Sound Field Processing
What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s
advanced sound reproduction technology lets you get
extremely close to the sound of a live performance, but
chances are you’ll still notice something missing: the
acoustic environment of the live concert hall. Extensive
research into the exact nature of the sonic reflections
that create the ambience of a large hall has made it
possible for Yamaha engineers to bring you this same
sound in your own listening room, so you’ll feel all the
sound of a live concert.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder
similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in
many movie theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic
Surround decoder, you can experience the dramatic
realism and impact of Dolby Surround movie theater
sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic employs a
four channel five speaker system. The Pro Logic
Surround system divides the input signal into four levels:
the left and right main channels, the center channel
(used for dialog), and the rear surround sound channels
(used for sound effects, background noise, and other
ambient noises). The center channel allows listeners
seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the
dialog originating from the action on the screen while
experiencing good stereo imaging.
Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of prerecorded video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable
broadcasts. When you play a source encoded with Dolby
Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated
measuring equipment, have even made it possible to
capture the acoustics of a variety of venues such as an
actual concert hall, theater, etc. to allow you to
accurately recreate one of several actual live
performance environments, all in your own home.
Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround
decoder decodes the signal and distributes the
surround-sound effects.
This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a
digital signal processing system. This system improves
the stability of sound at each channel and minimizes
crosstalk between channels, so that positioning of
sounds around the room is more accurate compared
with conventional analog signal processing systems.
In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input
balance control. This always assures you the best
performance without manual adjustment.

Dolby Pro Logic Surround + DSP
Dolby Surround sound system shows its full ability in a
large movie theater, because movie sounds are
originally designed to be reproduced in a large movie
theater using many speakers. It is difficult to create a
sound environment similar to that of a movie theater in
your listening room, because the room size, materials of
inside walls, the number of speakers, etc. of your
listening room is much different from those of a movie
theater.
Yamaha DSP technology made it possible to present
you with nearly the same sound experience as that of a
large movie theater in your listening room by
compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your
listening room with its original digital sound fields
combined with Dolby Surround sound field.
The combination of Dolby Pro Logic Surround and DSP
is used on the sound field program “ PRO LOGIC
ENHANCED”.
The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates these
programs are created by the combination of Dolby Pro
Logic and YAMAHA DSP technology.

Speaker configuration
This system employs a 6 speaker configuration: 2 front
speakers, 2 rear speakers, a center speaker and a
subwoofer.
The front speakers are used for the main source sound
plus the effect sounds. The rear speakers are used for
the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker
is for the center sounds (dialog etc.). The subwoofer is
for reinforcing low frequencies of the main source sound
and the center sounds.
Placing speakers
Front speakers: On both sides of the TV and in
almost the same height as the TV.
Rear speakers: Behind your listening position,
facing slightly inward. Nearly six
feet (approx. 1.8 m) up from the
floor.
Center speaker: Precisely between the front
speakers.
Subwoofer: The position of the subwoofer is not
so critical because low bass tones
are not highly directional.

Connect the provided speakers (NX-AV1) to the
SPEAKERS terminals on the rear of SW-AV1.
All of the speakers (NX-AV1) are identical.
The speakers connected to the FRONT R and L
terminals should be used as the right and left front
speakers.
The speaker connected to the CENTER terminal
should be used as the center speaker.
The speakers connected to the REAR R and L
terminals should be used as the right and left rear
speakers.
Notes
● Do not connect speakers other than the provided
ones to SW-AV1.
● Use the provided speaker cords for the connections.
Normally, use the short cords to connect with the
front and center speakers, and use the long ones to
connect with the rear speakers.
● The provided tag sheet for speaker cords is useful
for preventing wrong connections between speakers
and SW-AV1.
How to Connect:
Connect the provided speaker cords between the
SPEAKERS terminals on the power
amplifier/subwoofer (SW-AV1) and the speaker
terminals on each speaker (NX-AV1) properly as
shown below. If the connections are faulty, no sound
will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the
polarity of the speaker wires is correct, that is the + and
– markings are observed. If these wires are reversed,
the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
As a sure method, connect the wire with a silver line to
the + terminals on both the power amplifier/subwoofer
(SW-AV1) and speaker, and connect the wire with no
line to the – terminals on both of them.
Caution
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other
as this could damage SW-AV1 and/or speakers.
On SW-AV1:
Red: positive (+)
Black: negative (–)
On NX-AV1:
Red: positive (+)
Black: negative (–)
Press up the tab.

■ Antenna connection
(1) Supplied FM antenna
Connect the FM antenna wire to the corresponding
terminal and direct the FM antenna wire to the direction
where the strongest signal can be received.
(2) Supplied AM (MW/LW) loop antenna
Connect the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna wires to the
corresponding terminals. Position the AM (MW/LW)
loop antenna for optimum reception. Place the AM
(MW/LW) loop antenna on a shelf etc., or install it on
the rack or wall with screws (not provided).
Notes
When static is still heard even after adjusting the
•
position of the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna, try
reversing the wire connections (right to left).
Do not place the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna on the
•
unit. It will result in noise generation, since the unit
is equipped with digital electronics. Place the AM
(MW/LW) loop antenna away from the unit.
English
(3) External FM antenna
Use an external FM antenna instead of an indoor FM
antenna if you need better reception. Consult your
dealer.
(4) External AM (MW/LW) antenna
Use an external AM (MW/LW) antenna if you need
better reception. Consult your dealer.
Note
When using an external AM (MW/LW) antenna, be
sure to keep the wire of the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna
connected.
