PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
■ To assure the finest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
■ Choose the installation location of this unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat.
Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive
dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of
hum such as transformers and electric motors.
■ Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat,
possibly causing damage.
■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set,
contact your dealer.
■ The openings on the cabinet assure proper ventilation of
the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the temperature
inside the cabinet will rise rapidly. Therefore, avoid
placing objects against these openings, and install the unit
in well-ventilated condition. Be sure to allow a space of at
least 20 cm behind, 20 cm on the both sides and 30 cm
above the top panel of the unit. Otherwise it may not only
damage the unit, but also cause fire.
■ Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before
starting an audio source play: increase the volume
gradually to an appropriate level after play has started.
■ When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time
(ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the
wall outlet.
■ Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken
so that the grounding or polarization of the unit is not
defeated.
■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires.
When moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and
the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the

outlet is rated to provide.
■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before
you finish all connections.
■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified
on this unit. Using this unit with a higher voltage than
specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other
types of accidents causing damage. YAMAHA will not be
held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this
unit with a voltage other than specified.
■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on
speaker location and other factors. Care should be taken
to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which
may occur when turning on the unit with the volume control
setting at high, and to continuous high levels of sound.
■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in

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.
Graphic Equalizer
● 5-Band Adjustable Graphic Equalizer
● 4 Preset Graphic Equalizer Modes
Selectable According to the Music Source
(ROCK, BLUES, RAP and JAZZ)
● 4 Sound Field and 4 Equalizer Control Mode
Storing Capability
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
Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder
decodes the signal and distributes the surround-sound
effects.
In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance
control. This always assures you the best performance
without manual adjustment.

This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5-speaker configuration: a pair of front speakers, a pair of rear
speakers and a center speaker. You may omit the center speaker, if, for some reason, it is not practical to use a center speaker.
(Refer to the “4-Speaker Configuration” shown below.)
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.).
Speaker configuration
(1)
(1)5-Speaker Configuration
This configuration is the most effective and recommended
one. In this configuration, the center speaker is
necessary as well as the rear speakers. If the sound field
program DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY 3 STEREO is
selected, conversations will be output from the center
speaker and the ambience will be excellent.
● Set the center channel mode to the “NORMAL”
position. (For details, refer to page 14.)
English

Center
Front L
Front R
(2)4-Speaker Configuration
The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If the
sound field program DOLBY PRO LOGIC is selected, the
center sound is output from the left and the right front
speakers, although the program DOLBY 3 STEREO is
useless in this configuration. However, the sound effect
of other programs can be the same as that of the 5speaker configuration.
● Be sure to set the center channel mode to the
“PHANTOM” position. (For details, refer to page 14.)
Note
Be sure to use two rear speakers. If you connect one rear
speaker only, sound will not be output from the rear speaker.
Speaker placement
Front speakers:In normal position.
Rear speakers:Behind your listening position, facing
slightly inward. Nearly 1.8 m (approx.
six feet) up from the floor.
Center speaker:Precisely between the front speakers.

This procedure lets you adjust the sound output level balance
between the front, center, and rear speakers using the built-in
test tone generator. When this adjustment is performed, the
sound output level heard at the listening position will be the
same from each speaker. This is important for the best
performance of the built-in Dolby Pro Logic surround decoder.
The adjustment of each speaker output level should be
done at your listening position with the remote control
transmitter. Otherwise, the result may not be satisfactory.
Before operation
Set the CENTER MODE switch on the rear panel of this unit
to the position suitable for your speaker system configuration.
(Refer to page 7 for details.)
NORMAL (For 5 speaker configuration):
Select this position when you use the center speaker.
PHANTOM (For 4 speaker configuration):
Select this position when you do not use the center
speaker. The center sound will be output from the left
and right front speakers.

Notes
The automatic preset tuning search will be performed
•
through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the
number of received stations is less than 40, the search will
stop after searching all frequencies.
* Since FM stations are searched for first, there may be a
case that 40 preset stations are occupied by FM
stations only.
The unit is originally set so that only RDS stations are
•
searched instead of all FM stations by this operation. (FM
stations that employ no RDS network service cannot be
programmed.)
However, you can change the setting so that the unit can
program not only RDS stations but also other FM stations.
(Refer to page 29 for details.)
With this function, only stations with sufficient signal
•
strength are stored automatically. If the station you want
to program is weak in signal strength, tune to it in
monaural manually and program it by following the

PRO LOGIC HALL ARENA
3 STEREO
The Sound Field Processor built into this unit presents you with the ambience of an actual concert hall etc. by adding effects as
sonic reflections or reberverations that create the sound environment of a hall etc. This unit provides preset sound field programs
shown below. You can enjoy an excellent audio sound field by selecting one of them, and adding desired adjustments.
This unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video
sources. The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding sound field
program.
Brief Overview of Sound Field Programs
English
PROGRAM
PRO LOGIC
3 STEREO
HALL
ARENA
FEATURE
This program is used for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround.
Sounds are reproduced as movie creaters designed by using five speakers. You can experience the
dramatic realism and impact of a movie theater.
This program is effective not only for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround, but also for
sources not encoded with Dolby Surround or TV programs with 2-channel stereo sound. With this
program, 2-channel stereo sound is converted into 3-channels (left front, center and right front), so the
dialogs are emphasized on the center position by the use of the center speaker. As no sound is output
from the rear speakers, this program is also effective in a simple Audio/Video system without rear
speakers.
In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the front speakers, creating an expansive
large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music are suited for this sound field.
This program simulates the sound environment of a big hall with long reverberation time and many
reflections of high frequencies.
