You are the proud owner of a Yamaha stereo receiver –an extremely sophisticated audio component. The Digital Sound Field Processor (DSP) built into this unit takes advantage of Yamaha’s undisputed leadership in the field of digital audio processing to bring you a whole new world of listening experiences.
SPEAKER SETUP SPEAKERS TO BE USED This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5 speaker configuration. The most effective speakers to use with this unit are front speakers, rear speakers and a center speaker. You may omit the center speaker. (Refer to the “4-Speaker Configuration” shown below.) The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from your present stereo system.
Before attempting to make any connections to or from this unit, be sure to first switch OFF the power to this unit and to any other components to which connections are being made. English CONNECTIONS CONNECTIONS WITH OTHER COMPONENTS When making connections between this unit and other components, be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Also, refer to the owner’s manual for each component to be connected to this unit.
Connecting with a Dolby Digital (AC-3) Decoder If you have a Dolby Digital (AC-3) Decoder unit or an LD player etc. which incorporates a Dolby Digital (AC-3) Decoder, its discrete outputs can be connected to this unit. Dolby Digital (AC-3) Decoder unit OUTPUT MAIN CENTER SURROUND SUBWOOFER AC-3 RF IN 1 CD FM ANT 75Ω UNBAL.
Note on a subwoofer connection: You may wish to add a subwoofer to reinforce the bass frequencies. Connect the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal of this unit to the INPUT terminal of the subwoofer amplifier, and connect the speaker terminals of the subwoofer amplifier to the subwoofer. With some subwoofers, including the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, the amplifier and subwoofer are in the same unit. * The SUBWOOFER OUT terminal is for output to a monaural amplifier driving a subwoofer.
How to Connect: Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire of the proper gauge, cut as short as possible. 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. Caution Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch any metal part of this unit.
English ANTENNA CONNECTIONS ● ● Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following diagram. Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.

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 digital sound field processor. The adjustment of each speaker output level should be done at your listening position with the remote control transmitter.

English PRESET TUNING MANUAL PRESET TUNING This unit can store station frequencies selected by tuning operation. With this function, you can recall any desired station by only selecting the preset station number where it is stored. Up to 40 stations (8 stations x 5 groups) can be stored. 3, 1 4, 3 2 2, 5 To store stations 1 To recall a preset station 1 Tune to a desired station. (Refer to the previous page for tuning procedure.) Select the group of preset stations.
AUTOMATIC PRESET TUNING You can also make use of an automatic preset tuning function for FM stations only. By this function, this unit performs automatic tuning and stores FM stations with strong signals sequentially. Up to 40 stations are stored automatically in the same way as in the manual preset tuning method on page 23. * Only RDS stations can be stored by this function.
English EXCHANGING PRESET STATIONS You can exchange the places of two preset stations with each other as shown below. 2, 4 Example) If you want to shift the preset station on E1 to A5, and vice versa. 1 Recall the preset station on E1 (by following the method of “To recall a preset station” on page 23). 4 KEY MODE 2 EDIT KEY MODE MEMO AUTO PRESET EDIT Press and hold for about 3 seconds. 3 Flashes. Next, recall the preset station on A5 by following the same method with step 1.
In areas where RDS broadcasts cannot be received, the RDS broadcast functions do not operate. (The procedures from page 26 to page 30 are not necesssary.) RECEIVING RDS STATIONS Europe and U.K. models only RDS (Radio Data System) is a data transmission system gradually being introduced by FM stations in many countries. Stations using this system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the normal radio signal.
English Program types in the PTY mode NEWS News: Short accounts of facts, events and publicly expressed views, reportage and actuality. AFFAIRS Current affairs: Topical program expanding or enlarging upon the news, generally in different presentation style or concept, including documentary debate, or analysis. INFO Information: Program whose purpose is to impart advice in the widest sense, including meteorological reports and forecasts, consumer affairs, medical help, etc.
Changing the RDS modes When an RDS station is received, “PS”, “PTY” and/or “RT” that correspond to the RDS data services employed by the station light up on the display. By pressing the RDS MODE/FREQ button once or more, you can change the display mode among the RDS modes employed by the received station in the order shown below. (The RDS mode not employed by the station cannot be selected.
English Calling a program of your desired program type from among preset RDS stations (PTY SEEK) By designating a program type, the unit automatically searches all preset stations for an RDS station which broadcasts a program of that program type. * There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations. For details, refer to page 27. 2 1 1 Turn the unit into the PTY SEEK mode. 3 3 Begin searching all preset RDS stations. PTY SEEK PTY SEEK MODE MODE START START Flashes.
Making this unit call a program of your desired program type automatically when its broadcast starts This function uses the EON (Enhanced Other Networks) data service on the RDS station network. By only selecting a desired program type (NEWS, INFO, AFFAIRS or SPORT), this unit automatically searches all preset RDS stations for a station that broadcasts a program of that program type in the background, and, if found, receives a program when its broadcast starts in place of the program now being received.
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your listening room. This unit has a total of 6 digital sound field processor (DSP) programs.

English Adjustment of the CENTER LEVEL If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of the center speaker even if the output level is already set in “SPEAKER BALANCE ADJUSTMENT” on page 19. 1 Press once or more so that “CNTR” appears on the display. Notes This adjustment can be made only when the digital sound field program DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED is selected, or the “DVD 5cH” input source mode is selected.
Adjustment of DELAY TIME You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of the source sound and the beginning of the effect sound. This adjustment can be made to all programs individually. By applying more or less delay, sound effects, background noise, and ambient noise coming at you from the rear speakers can be enhanced or subdued for extra effect. 1 Press once or more so that “DELAY” appears on the display.
