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.
• See page 25 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
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.
If a Yamaha subwoofer is connected via the SYSTEM CONNECTOR jack, it turns on
and off when the unit is turned on and off.
• When the unit is connected to the subwoofer via the cable, set the subwoofer output to “Wired” in the setup
menu (page 74 in the Owner’s Manual).
The wireless subwoofer kit SWK-W16 enables wireless connection of a subwoofer to the
unit. Install the SWK-W16 on or near the subwoofer.
Follow the procedure below to connect the SWK-W16 to the subwoofer.
1
Connect subwoofer cable to the SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the
SWK-W16 and the subwoofer’s input jack.
If a Yamaha subwoofer is connected via the SYS TEM CONNECTOR jack, it
turns on and off when the unit is turned on and off.
2
Plug the power cables for the subwoofer and the SWK-W16 into an
AC wall outlet.
When the unit is turned on, a wireless connection between the unit and
SWK-W16 will be established. The status indicator glows green once the
wireless connection is established.
• See “Troubleshooting” (pages 93 and 99 in the Owner’s Manual) if the indicator on the wireless subwoofer
kit does not glow green.
