Installing Batteries in the Remote

Control

Insert the batteries in the correct direction by aligning the

+ and – marks on the batteries with the polarity markings

(+ and –) inside the battery compartment.

■ Notes on batteries

• Change the batteries periodically.

• Do not use old batteries together with new ones.

• Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline

and manganese batteries) together. Read the packaging

carefully as these different types of batteries may have

the same shape and color.

GETTING STARTED

Checking the Package Contents

Check your package to make sure it has the following items.

■ Changing batteries

As the batteries lose power, the operating range of the

remote control decreases and the indicator does not flash

or its light becomes dim. When you notice any of these

conditions, change all of the batteries.

If the remote control is without batteries for more than

2 minutes, or if exhausted batteries remain in the

remote control, the contents of the memory may be

cleared. When the memory is cleared, insert new

batteries, set up the manufacturer code that may have

been cleared.

Note

• If the batteries have leaked, dispose of them immediately.

Avoid touching the leaked material or letting it come into

contact with clothing, etc. Clean the battery compartment

thoroughly before installing new batteries.

SPEAKER SETUP

Speakers to Be Used

This unit has been designed to provide the best sound-

field quality with a 5-speaker system, using left and right

main speakers, left and right rear speakers, and a center

speaker. If you use different brands of speakers (with

different tonal qualities) in your system, the tone of a

moving human voice and other types of sound may not

shift smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers

from the same manufacturer to ensure even tonal quality.

The main speakers are used for the main source sound

plus the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers

from your present stereo system. The rear speakers are

used for the effect and surround sounds, and the center

speaker is for the center sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.). If

for some reason it is not practical to use a center speaker,

you can do without it. Best results, however, are obtained

with the full system.

The main speakers should be high-performance models

and have enough power-handling capacity to accept the

maximum output of your audio system. The other

speakers do not have to be equal to the main speakers.

For precise sound localization, however, it is ideal to use

high-performance models that can reproduce sounds over

the full range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.

■ Use of a subwoofer expands your

sound field

It is also possible to further expand your system with the

addition of a subwoofer. The use of a subwoofer is

effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from

any or all channels, but also for reproducing the LFE

(low-frequency effect) channel with high fidelity when

the Dolby Digital signal or the DTS signal is played back.

The YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer

System is ideal for natural and lively bass reproduction.

Speaker Placement

Refer to the following diagram when you place the

speakers.

Main

speaker (L)

Center speaker

Main speaker (R)

Rear speaker (R)

Rear speaker (L)

1.8 m

■ Main speakers

Place the left and right main speakers an equal distance

from the ideal listening position. The distance of each

speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the

same.

■ Rear speakers

Place these speakers behind your listening position,

facing slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet)

above the floor.

■ Center speaker

Align the front face of the center speaker with the front

face of your video monitor. Place the speaker as close to

the monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the

monitor and centrally between the main speakers.

Note

• If the center speaker is not used, the center channel sound will

be heard from the left and right main speakers. In this case,

“1A CENTER SP” on the SET MENU is set to NONE.

■ Subwoofer

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because

low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better

to place the subwoofer near the main speakers. Turn it

slightly toward the center of the room to reduce the wall

reflections.

CAUTION

Please use magnetically shielded speakers. Sometimes

a video monitor may be adversely affected even when

magnetically shielded speakers are used. Separate the

speakers from the monitor if this happens.

CONNECTIONS

Before Connecting Components

CAUTION

Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been

completed.

• Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Some

components require different connection methods and have different jack names. Refer to the operation instructions

for each component to be connected to this unit.

• When you connect other YAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or

changer), connect them to the jack with the same number labels as !, @, # etc.

• After you have completed all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.

Connecting Audio Components

■ Connecting to digital jacks

This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of

digital signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables.

You can use the digital jacks to input PCM, Dolby Digital

and DTS bitstreams. When you connect components to

both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, priority is given

to the input signals from the COAXIAL jack. All digital

input jacks are acceptable for 96-kHz sampling digital

signals.

y

• You can designate the input for each digital jack according to

your component by using “4 I/O ASSIGNMENT” on the SET

MENU.

About the dust protection cap

Pull out the cap from the optical jack

before you connect the fiber optic cable.

Do not discard the cap. When you are not

using the optical jack, be sure to put the

cap back in place. This cap protects the

jack from dust.

Note

• The OPTICAL jacks on this unit conform to the EIA standard.

If you use a fiber optic cable that does not conform to this

standard, this unit may not function properly.

■ Connecting a turntable

PHONO jacks are for connecting a turntable with an MM

or high-output MC cartridge. If you have a turntable with

a low-output MC cartridge, use an inline boosting

transformer or MC-head amplifier when connecting to

these jacks.

y

• The GND terminal does not electrically ground the turntable. It

simply reduces noise in the signal. In some cases, you may

hear less noise if you do not connect to the GND terminal.

■ Connecting a tuner

You can listen to an FM or AM broadcasting by

connecting AM/FM tuner.

To get clearer reception, connect the antennas correctly.

Refer to your tuner’s operation instrustions for details.

■ Connecting a CD player

y

• The COAXIAL jack is available for a CD player which has a

coaxial digital output jack.

• When you connect a CD player to both the analog and digital

jacks, priority is given to the input signals from the digital jack.

■ Connecting an MD recorder, CD

recorder or tape deck

y

• When you connect your recording component to both the

analog and digital input and output jacks, the priority is given

to the digital signal.

Notes

• When you connect a recording component to this unit, keep its

power on while using this unit. If the power is off, this unit

may distort the sound from other components.

• Since digital output and analog output (REC OUT) are

independent of each other, the analog signal is output only to

the analog jack, while the digital signal is output only to the

digital jack.

Connecting Video Components

■ About the video jacks

There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the VIDEO jacks are the conventional composit video

signals. Video signals input through the S VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals.

The S-video signals achieve high-quality color reproduction. Video signals input through the COMPONENT VIDEO

jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (P

B

/C

B

, P

R

/C

R

) video signals. The jacks are also separated

into three for each signal. The description of the component video jacks may be different depending on the component

(e.g. Y, C

B

, C

R

/Y, P

B

, P

R

/Y, B-Y, R-Y etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction.

If your video component has an S-video output or component video output, you can connect it to this unit. Connect the

S-video signal output jack on your video component to the S VIDEO jack or connect the component signal output jacks

on your video component to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

VIDEO jack (composite)

S VIDEO jack

COMPONENT VIDEO jacks

y

• Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input

through the composite video, S-video and component jacks are

output through the corresponding composite video, S-video,

and component jacks, respectively.

• If you make S-video connections to this unit, it is not necessary

to make composite video connections. If both types of

connections are made, this unit gives priority to the S-video

signal.

• You can designate the input for the COMPONENT VIDEO A

and B jacks according to your component by using “4 I/O

ASSIGNMENT” on the SET MENU.

Notes

• Use a commercially available S-video cable when connecting to the S VIDEO jack, and commercially available video cables when

connecting to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

• When you are using the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks, check the details in the owner’s manual that came with the component being

connected.

■ Video monitor with a 21-pin connector (Europe and U.K. models only)

Make a connection as shown on page 15 with a commercially available SCART-plug connector cable.

■ VIDEO AUX jacks (on the front panel)

These jacks are used to connect any video input source

such as a game console to this unit.

■ SUBWOOFER jack

When using a subwoofer with built-in amplifier,

including the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing

Subwoofer System, connect the input jack of the

subwoofer system to this jack. Low bass signals

distributed from the main, center and/or rear channels are

directed to this jack. (The cut-off frequency of this jack is

90 Hz.) The LFE (low-frequency effect) signals generated

when Dolby Digital or DTS is decoded are also directed

if they are assigned to this jack.

Notes

• Adjust the subwoofer volume according to the operating

instructions for the subwoofer. (Fine adjustment is possible

using this unit’s output level control of the effect speakers.)
