• This unit is configured for 8-ohm speakers at the factory. When
connecting 6-ohm speakers, set the speaker impedance of this
unit to “6 Ω MIN”. For details, see “Setting the speaker
impedance” (p.16) in “Owner’s Manual”.

• Be careful that the core of the speaker cable does not touch
anything or come into contact with the metal areas of this unit.
This may damage this unit or the speakers. If the speaker
cables short circuit, “CHECK SP WIRES” will appear on the
front display when this unit is turned on.

Connecting speaker cables
Speaker cables have two wires. One is for connecting
the negative (-) terminal of the unit and the speaker, and
the other is for the positive (+) terminal. If the wires are
colored to prevent confusion, connect the black wire to
the negative and the other wire to the positive.

5 Optimizing the speaker settings automatically (YPAO)
By using the Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) function, this unit automatically detects speaker
connections and distances from the listening position, and optimizes the speaker settings such as volume balance and
acoustic parameters to suit your room.
• During the measuring process, the test tones are output at high volume. Take care
that the test tone does not frighten small children. Also, refrain from using this
function at night when it may be a nuisance to others.
