How to connect speakers
nConnecting the speaker
Connect a speaker cable between the negative (–) terminal of the unit and the
negative (–) terminal of the speaker, and between the positive (+) terminal of the unit
and the positive (+) unit of the speaker.
Notice
When connecting the speaker cables, take notice of the following:
▪ Prepare speaker cables in a place away from the unit, to avoid accidentally dropping wire strands into
the unit's interior which could result in a short circuit or malfunction of the unit.
▪ Improper connecting of the speaker cables may cause a short circuit and also damage the unit or the
speakers.
– Twist the bare wires of the speaker cables firmly together.
– Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable touch one another.
– Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable come into contact with the unit’s metal parts (rear panel
and screws).

For details on the speaker system with the presence speakers, see the following:
▪ “Using 7.1/5.1.2-channel system” (p.21)
▪ “Using 5.1.2-channel system” (p.22)
About Dolby Atmos®
▪ Dolby Atmos contents are decoded as Dolby TrueHD or Dolby Digital Plus in the following situations.
(Dolby Atmos PCM format is always decoded as Dolby Atmos.)
– Neither surround back nor presence speakers are used.
– Headphones are used (2-channel playback).
▪ When the Dolby Atmos decoder is selected, virtual surround processing (such as Virtual CINEMA
FRONT) does not work. For details, see the following:
– “Enjoying sound field effects without surround speakers (Virtual CINEMA DSP)” (p.50)
– “Enjoying surround sound with 5 speakers placed in front (Virtual CINEMA FRONT)” (p.50)
About DTS:X™
▪ When DTS:X contents are played back, you can adjust the volume of dialogue sounds in “DTS
Dialogue Control” in the “Option” menu. For details, see the following:
–“Adjusting the volume of dialogue sound during DTS:X™ playback” (p.95)
▪ When the DTS:X decoder is selected, virtual surround processing (such as Virtual CINEMA FRONT)
does not work. For details, see the following:

Enjoying music in multiple rooms
Playing back music in multiple rooms
The multi-zone function allows you to play back different input sources in the room
where the unit is installed (Main zone) and in another room (Zone2).
For example, while you are watching TV in the living room (Main zone), another person
can listen to radio in the study room (Zone2).
Two methods for connecting the device that will be used in Zone2 to the unit are
available; using the unit’s internal amplifier or using an external amplifier. When using
an external amplifier, you can select 7.1/5.1.2-channel speaker system in Main zone.
• “Connecting Zone2 speakers using the unit’s internal amplifier” (p.55)
• “Connecting Zone2 speakers using an external amplifier” (p.57)

Listening to DAB radio (U.K., Europe, Russia and Australia models)
Preparing the DAB tuning
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) uses digital signals for clearer sound and more
stable reception compared to analog signals. The unit can also receive DAB+ (an
upgraded version of DAB) that allows for more stations using MPEG-4 HE-AAC v2
audio codec, which has a more efficient transmission method.
Note
▪ The unit supports Band III (174 to 240 MHz) only.
▪ Be sure to check the DAB coverage in your area in that not all areas are currently being covered. For a list
of nationwide DAB statuses and worldwide DAB frequencies, check WorldDMB online at
http://www.worlddab.org/.
▪ For details on the antenna connection, see the following:
– “Connecting the DAB/FM antenna (U.K., Europe, Russia and Australia models)” (p.35)
Before tuning into DAB radio stations, perform an initial scan.
1Press TUNER to select “TUNER” as the input source.

adventure movies precisely. The sound field restrains reverberations, but
puts emphasis on reproducing a sensation of expansiveness on both
sides, powerful space expanded widely to the left and right. The
restrained depth creates a clear and powerful space, while also
maintaining the articulation of the sounds and the separation of the
channels.
Drama
This program features stable reverberations that match a wide range of
movie genres, from serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The
reverberations are modest, but suitably stereophonic. The sound effects

DSD (Direct Stream Digital)
DSD (Direct Stream Digital) technology stores audio signals on digital storage media, such as
SACD (Super Audio CDs). The signals are stored at a high-frequency sampling rate (such as 11.2
MHz). The highest frequency response is equal to or higher than 100 kHz, with a dynamic range
of 120 dB. This technology offers better audio quality than that used for CDs.
FLAC
FLAC is a file format for lossless audio data compression. FLAC is inferior to lossy compressed
audio formats in compression rate but provides higher audio quality.
MP3
One of the compressed digital audio format used by MPEG. With psychoacoustic technologies,
this compression method achieves a high compression rate. Reportedly, it is capable of
compressing data quantity by about 1/10 maintaining a certain level of audio quality.
MPEG-4 AAC
An MPEG-4 audio standard. It is used for mobile telephones, portable audio players, and audio
streaming services on Internet because it allows a high compression rate of data while
maintaining better audio quality than MP3.
Neural:X
Neural:X is the latest downmixing/upmixing and spatial remapping technology from DTS. It is built
in to DTS:X to provide upmix of Neural:X-encoded and non-encoded (PCM) data. In DTS:X for
AVRs and Sound Bars, Neural:X can produce up to 11.x channels.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
PCM is a signal format under which an analog audio signal is digitized, recorded, and transmitted.
This technology is the basis of all other audio format. This technology is used as a lossless audio
format called Linear PCM for audio on a variety of media, including CDs.
Sampling frequency/Quantization bit
Sampling frequency and quantization bits indicate the quantity of information when an analog
audio signal is digitized. These values are noted as in the following example: “48 kHz/24-bit”.
• Sampling frequency
Sampling frequency (the number of times the signal is sampled per second) is called the
sampling rate. When the sampling frequency is higher, the range of frequencies that can be
played back are wider.
• Quantization bit
The number of quantization bits indicate the degree of accuracy when converting the sound
level into a numeric value. When the number of quantized bits is higher, the expression of the
sound level is more accurate.
WAV
Windows standard audio file format, which defines the method of recording the digital data
obtained by converting audio signals. By default, the PCM method (no compression) is used, but
you can also use other compression methods.
WMA (Windows Media Audio)
One of the compressed digital audio formats developed by Microsoft Corporation. With
psychoacoustic technologies, this compression method achieves a high compression rate.
Reportedly, it is capable of compressing data quantity by about 1/20 maintaining a certain level of
audio quality.
nGlossary of audio information other than audio
decoding format
This is a glossary of the technical terms related to audio information used in this
manual.
Bi-amplification connection (Bi-amp)
A bi-amplification connection uses two amplifiers for a speaker. When you use the bi-amplification
connection, the unit drives the tweeter and woofer in a speaker with the discrete amplifiers. As a
consequence, the tweeter and woofer provide clear audio signal without the interference.
LFE (Low Frequency Effects) 0.1 channel
This channel reproduces low-frequency bass signals and has a frequency range from 20 Hz to
120 Hz. This channel is added to the channels for all bands with Dolby Digital or DTS to enhance
low frequency audio effects. This channel is labeled 0.1 because it is limited to only low frequency
audio.
Lip sync
Video output sometimes lags behind audio output due to the complexity of signal processing
caused by an increase in video signal capacity. Lip sync is a technique for automatically
correcting the timing lag between audio and video output.
Glossary of HDMI and video information
This is a glossary of the technical terms related to HDMI and video information used in
this manual.
Component video signal
With the component video signal system, the video signal is separated into the Y signal for
luminance and the Pb and Pr signals for chrominance. Color can be reproduced more faithfully
with this system because each of these signals is independent.
Composite video signal
With the composite video signal system, color, brightness, and synchronization data signals are
combined and transmitted with a single cable.
En

Deep Color
Deep Color is a technology that HDMI specification supports. Deep Color increases the number of
available colors within the boundaries defined by the RGB or YCbCr color space. Conventional
color systems process the color using 8 bits. Deep Color processes the color with 10, 12, or 16
bits. This technology allows HDTVs and other displays to increase from millions of colors to
billions of colors and eliminate on-screen color banding for smooth tonal transitions and subtle
gradations between colors.
HDCP
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a digital copy protection form that prevents
copying of digital contents as it travels across connections (such as HDMI).
HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the world-wide standard interface for digital audio/
video signal transmission. This interface transmits both digital audio and digital video signals
using a single cable without any loss. HDMI complies with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) and provides a secure audio/video interface. For further information on HDMI, visit the
HDMI website at “http://www.hdmi.org/”.
x.v.Color
“x.v.Color” is a technology that the HDMI specification supports. It is a more extensive color
space than sRGB and allows the expression of colors that were not hitherto possible. While
remaining compatible with the color gamut of sRGB standards, “x.v.Color” expands the color
space, and thus can produce more vivid, natural images.
Glossary of network information
This is a glossary of the technical terms related to network information used in this
manual.
SSID
SSID (Service Set Identifier) is a name that identifies a particular wireless LAN access point.
Wi-Fi

Glossary of Yamaha technologies
This is a glossary of the technical terms related to Yamaha technologies used in this
manual.
CINEMA DSP (Digital Sound Field Processor)
Since the surround sound systems were originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect
is best experienced in a theater that has many speakers designed for acoustic effects. Since
home conditions (such as room size, wall material, and number of speakers) can differ so widely,
it is inevitable that there are differences in the sound that you hear. Based on a wealth of actually
measured data, CINEMA DSP, Yamaha’s original DSP technology provides the audiovisual
experience of a movie theater in your own home.
CINEMA DSP 3D
The actually measured sound field data contain the information of the height of the sound images.
CINEMA DSP 3D mode achieves the reproduction of the accurate height of the sound images so
that it creates the accurate and intensive 3D sound fields in a listening room.
Compressed Music Enhancer
The Compressed Music Enhancer feature compensates for missing harmonics in compression
music formats (such as MP3). As a result, this technology provides improved performance for the
overall sound system.
SILENT CINEMA

Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound program, so that accurate
representations of all the sound programs can be enjoyed on headphones.
Virtual CINEMA DSP
Virtual CINEMA DSP allows the system to virtually reproduce the sound field of the surround
speakers with front left and right speakers. Even if the surround speakers are not connected, the
unit creates the realistic sound field in a listening room.
En
182

Virtual CINEMA FRONT
Virtual CINEMA FRONT allows the system to virtually reproduce the sound field of the surround
speakers with front surround speakers. Even if the surround speakers placed in the front, the unit
creates the realistic sound field in a listening room.
Virtual Presence Speaker (VPS)
Virtual Presence Speaker allows the system to virtually reproduce the height of the 3D sound field
without presence speakers. Even if the presence speakers are not connected, the unit creates the
3D sound field in your room.
Virtual Surround Back Speaker (VSBS)
Virtual Surround Back Speaker allows the system to virtually reproduce the sound field of the
surround back speakers with surround speaker. Even if the surround back speakers are not
connected, the unit adds a sense of depth to the rear sound filed of CINEMA DSP.
YPAO (Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimizer)

Additional information on HDMI
HDMI Control and synchronized operations
HDMI Control allows you to operate external devices via HDMI. If you connect a TV
that supports HDMI Control to the unit with an HDMI cable, you can control the unit
(such as power and volume) with TV remote control operations. You can also control
external devices (such as HDMI Control-compatible BD/DVD players) connected to
the unit with an HDMI cable.
Operations available from the TV’s remote control
• Standby
• Volume control including mute
• Switching to input audio from the TV when the TV input is switched to its built-in
tuner
• Switching to input video/audio from the selected playback device
• Switching between audio output devices (the unit or TV speaker)
(Example)
HDMI Control HDMI Control
The unit turns off (standby)
Playback device also

Turn off the TV
Operations available from the unit’s remote control
• Starting playback on the playback device and turning on the TV with a scene
selection
• Switching the TV input to display the “Setup” menu (when SETUP is pressed)
• Controlling the external device from which video is displayed on the TV (playback
and menu operations)
• Controlling the TV when you select TV audio input that is set in “TV Audio Input” in
the “Setup” menu
• Controlling the TV with the color (RED/GREEN/YELLOW/BLUE) keys of the remote
control when “TV Control” is set for the color keys
(Example)
HDMI Control HDMI Control
Press SCENE1
Playback starts Turns on and displays video
from the playback device
Note
▪ HDMI Control might not work properly.
▪ For details on the scene selection, see the following:
– “Selecting a registered scene” (p.87)
▪ For details on TV audio input, see the following:
– “Setting the audio jack used for TV audio input” (p.128)
▪ For details on the functions for the RED/GREEN/YELLOW/BLUE keys, see the following:
– “Setting the unit's functions for the RED/GREEN/YELLOW/BLUE keys of the remote control” (p.144)
To use HDMI Control, you need to perform the following HDMI Control link setup after
connecting the TV and playback devices.
For details on settings and operating your TV, refer to the instruction manual for the TV.
Note
This setup is required every time you add a new HDMI Control-compatible device to your system.
1Turn on the unit, TV, and playback devices.
2Enable the HDMI Control function on the unit, TV and HDMI
Control-compatible playback devices (such as BD/DVD players).
In order to enable the HDMI Control function on the unit, set “HDMI
Control” in the “Setup” menu to “On”, and then configure the settings in
related items (“TV Audio Input”, “Standby Sync” and “ARC”). For details,
see the following:
▪“Setting the use of HDMI Control” (p.128)
3Turn off the main power of the TV and then turn off the unit and
playback devices.

4Turn on the unit and playback devices and then turn on the TV.
5Switch the TV input to display the video from the unit.
6Check that the input, to which the playback device is connected
on the unit, is selected.
If not, select the input source manually.
7Check that the video from the playback device is displayed on the
TV.
8Check that the unit is properly synchronized with the TV by
turning off the TV or adjusting the TV volume with the TV remote
control.
Note
▪ If HDMI Control does not work properly, the problem may be solved by turning the playback device off and
on again, or by unplugging the power plug and plugging it in again. Also, HDMI Control may not work
properly if the number of connected devices exceeds the limit. In this case, disable HDMI Control on
devices not in use.
▪ If the unit is not synchronized to the TV’s power operations, check the priority of the audio output setting
on the TV.
▪ We recommend using TV and playback devices from the same manufacturer so that HDMI Control works
more effectively.
Audio Return Channel (ARC)
ARC allows you to input TV audio to the unit with the HDMI cable which transmits video
signal to the TV.
Check the following after the HDMI Control settings.
Note
For details on the HDMI Control settings, see the following:
▪ “HDMI Control and synchronized operations” (p.186)
1Select a TV program with the TV remote control.
2Check that the input source of the unit will be automatically
switched to “AUDIO1” and the TV audio will be played back on the
unit.
If you cannot hear the TV audio, check the following:
• “ARC” in the “Setup” menu is set to “On”. For details, see the following:
– “Setting the use of ARC” (p.128)
• The HDMI cable is connected to the ARC-compatible HDMI jack (HDMI jack marked
“ARC”) on the TV.
Some HDMI jack on the TV is not compatible with ARC. For details, refer to the
instruction manual for the TV.
Note
▪ If the audio is interrupted while using ARC, set “ARC” in the “Setup” menu to “Off” and use a digital optical
cable to input TV audio to the unit. For details, see the following:
– “Setting the use of ARC” (p.128)
– “OPTICAL jack” (p.177)
▪ When using ARC, connect a TV with an HDMI cable that supports ARC.
▪ “AUDIO1” is set as TV audio input at the factory. If you have connected any external device to the AUDIO
1 jacks, use “TV Audio Input” in the “Setup” menu to change the TV audio input assignment. To use the
SCENE function, you also need to change the input assignment for SCENE (7). For details, see the
following:
– “Setting the audio jack used for TV audio input” (p.128)
–“Registering a scene” (p.89)
