CONNECTIONS

The speaker layout below shows the standard ITU-R*

speaker setting. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP,

multi-channel audio sources and THX.

*ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU

(International Telecommunication Union).

Front speakers (FR and FL)

The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus

effect sounds. Place these 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.

Center speaker (C)

The center speaker is for the center channel 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. Align the front

face of the center speaker with the front face of your video

monitor. Place the speaker centrally between the front

speakers and as close to the monitor as possible, such as

directly over or under it.

Surround speakers (SR and SL)

The surround speakers are used for effect and surround

sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening

position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m above the

floor.

Surround back speakers (SBR and SBL)

The surround back speakers supplement the surround

speakers and provide for more realistic front-to-back

transitions. Place these speakers directly behind the

listening position and at the same height as the surround

speakers. They should be positioned at least 30 cm apart.

Ideally, they should be positioned at the same width as the

front speakers.

Subwoofer

The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active

Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only

for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels,

but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low-

frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and

DTS software. 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

front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the

room to reduce wall reflections.

Presence speakers (PR and PL)

Presence speakers supplement the sound from the front

speakers with extra ambient effects produced by CINEMA

DSP (see page 58). These effects include sounds that

filmmakers intend to locate a little farther back behind the

screen in order to create more theater-like ambience. Place

these speakers at the front of the room about 0.5 – 1 m

outside the front speakers, facing slightly inwards, and

about 1.8 m above the floor.

Surround back and presence speakers do not output sound

simultaneously. You can set to prioritize either set of speakers

using the PR/SB Priority parameter in Manual Setup (see

page 79).

PREPARATION English

■Di-pole speaker layout

Either di-pole or direct radiating speaker types can be used

for THX surround. If you choose di-pole speakers, please

place the surround and surround back speakers according

to the speaker layout below.

Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R),

“+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are

faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the

polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound

will be unnatural and lack bass.

• If you will use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set this unit’s speaker

impedance setting to 6 ohms before using (see page 31). If you

will use 8 ohm speakers, use this unit’s initial setting for

speaker impedance.

• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit is

disconnected from the power source.

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let

them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage this

unit and/or speakers.

• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speaker still

creates interference with the monitor, place the speakers away

from the monitor.

A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side

by side. One cable is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a

stripe, groove or ridges. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable

to the “+” (red) terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect

the plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals.

■Connecting to the speaker terminals

FRONT terminals

Connect one or two speaker systems to these terminals.

If you use only one speaker system, connect it to either of

the FRONT A or B terminals.

The Canada model cannot output to two pairs of speaker systems

simultaneously.

CENTER terminals

Connect a center speaker to these terminals.

SURROUND ZONE 2(3) terminals

Connect surround speakers to these terminals.

SUBWOOFER jack

Connect a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, such as the

YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System,

to this jack.

SURROUND BACK terminals

Connect surround back speakers to these terminals.

If you only connect one surround back speaker, connect it

to the left (L) terminals.

(General model)

CONNECTIONS

PREPARATION English

Some of the speakers commercially available these days

have speaker wire connections that allow bi-wiring or bi-

amplification to enhance the performance of the speaker

system. This unit allows you to make bi-wire and bi-AMP

connections to one speaker system. Check if your speakers

support bi-wiring or bi-amplification. As these speakers

are shipped to you, you will note gold-plated shorting bars

or bridges, one connecting the two red input terminals and

the other connecting the two black input terminals.

Remove these shorting bars or bridges only if you plan to

bi-wire or bi-AMP your speakers.

■Conventional connection

If you want to connect your speakers as traditional

loudspeakers using the conventional connection method,

connect your speakers using the regular left and right

speaker wire connections and ignore the second set of

terminals.

■Bi-wire connection

The bi-wire connection separates the woofer from the

combined midrange and tweeter section. A bi-wire

compatible speaker has four binding post terminals. These

two sets of terminals allow the speaker to be split into two

independent sections. This split connects the mid and high

frequency drivers to one set of terminals and the low

frequency driver to the other pair.

• Remove the shorting bars or bridges to separate the LPF (low

pass filter) and HPF (high pass filter) crossovers.

• To use the bi-wire connections, press SPEAKERS A on the

front panel so that SP A lights up in the front panel display.

■Bi-AMP connection

The bi-AMP connection uses two amplifiers for both

speakers. One amplifier is connected to the woofer section

of a loudspeaker while the other is connected to the

combined mid and tweeter section. With this arrangement

each amplifier operates over a restricted frequency range.

This restricted range presents each amplifier with a much

simpler job and each amplifier is less likely to influence

the sound in some way. The internal crossover of the

speaker consists of a LPF (low pass filter) and a HPF (high

pass filter). As its name implies, the LPF passes

frequencies below a cutoff and rejects frequencies above

the cutoff frequency. Likewise, the HPF passes

frequencies above its cutoff.

• Remove the shorting bars or bridges to separate the LPF (low

pass filter) and HPF (high pass filter) crossovers.

• To activate the bi-AMP connections, set BI-AMP to ON in

ADVANCED SETUP (see page 95).

• To make the bi-AMP connections, use the FRONT and

SURROUND BACK terminals as shown below.

■Cable indications

■Analog jacks

You can input analog signals from audio components by

connecting audio pin cables to the analog jacks on this

unit. Connect red plugs to the right jacks and white plugs

to the left jacks.

■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

signals input at the COAXIAL jack. All digital input jacks

are compatible with 96-kHz sampling digital signals.

This unit handles digital and analog signals independently. Thus

audio signals input at the analog jacks are only output at the

analog OUT (REC) jacks. Likewise, audio signals input at the

digital (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jacks are only output at the

DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.

AUTO SETUP

This receiver employs YAMAHA Parametric Room

Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) technology which lets you

avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and

achieves highly accurate sound adjustments. The supplied

optimizer microphone collects and analyzes the sound

your speakers produce in your actual listening

environment.

• Please be advised that it is normal for loud test tones to be

output during the AUTO SETUP procedure.

• If the AUTO SETUP procedure stops and error messages

appear on the screen, follow the troubleshooting on page 119.

YPAO performs the following checks and makes

appropriate adjustments to give you the best possible

sound from your system.

Wiring

Checks which speakers are connected and the polarity of

each speaker.

Distance

Checks the distance of each speaker from the listening

position and adjusts the timing of each channel.

Size

Checks the speaker’s frequency response and sets the

appropriate low frequency crossover for each channel.

Equalizing

Adjusts frequency and levels of each channel’s parametric

equalizer to reduce coloration across the channels and

create a cohesive sound field. This is particularly

important if you use different brands or sizes of speakers

for some channels or have a room with unique sonic

characteristics.

YPAO equalizing calibration incorporates three

parameters (frequency, level and Q factor) for each of the

seven bands in its parametric equalizer to provide highly

precise automatic adjustment of frequency characteristics.

Level

Checks and adjusts the volume level of each speaker.

1Connect the supplied optimizer microphone

to the OPTIMIZER MIC jack on the front

panel.

• After you have completed the AUTO SETUP procedure, be sure

to disconnect the optimizer microphone.

• The optimizer microphone is sensitive to heat.

– Keep it away from direct sunlight.

– Do not place it on top of this unit.

2Place the optimizer microphone on a flat

level surface with the omni-directional

microphone head upward, at your normal

listening position.

If possible, use a tripod (etc.) to affix the optimizer

mic at the same height as your ears would be when

you are seated in your listening position.

■Notes on Dialogue Normalization

(Dial Norm)

Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is a feature of Dolby

Digital and DTS, which is used to keep the programs at

the same average listening level so the user does not have

to change the volume control between Dolby Digital and

DTS programs. When playing back software which has

been encoded in Dolby Digital and DTS, sometimes you

may see a brief message in the front panel display which

will read “Dial Norm X dB” (X being a numeric value).

The display is showing how the program level relates with

THX calibration level. If you want to play the program at

calibrated theatrical levels, you may wish to adjust the

volume.

For example, if you see the following message:

“Dial Norm + 4 dB” in the front panel display, to keep the

overall output level at THX calibrated loudness, just turn

down the volume control by 4dB. However, unlike a

movie theater where the playback loudness is preset, you

can choose your preferred volume setting for best

enjoyment.

through the video circuits of this unit. Therefore, when

recording or dubbing video signals, if your video source

component is connected to provide only an S-video or only a

composite video signal, you can record only an S-video or only

a composite video signal to your VCR.

• Digital signals input at the DIGITAL INPUT jacks are not

output at the analog AUDIO OUT L/R jacks for recording.

Likewise, analog signals input at the AUDIO IN L/R jacks are

not output at the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack. Therefore, if your

source component is connected to provide only digital or analog

signals, you can only record digital or analog signals.

• A given input source is not output on the same OUT (REC)

channel. For example, the signal input at VCR 1 IN is not

output at VCR 1 OUT.

records, CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may

infringe copyright laws.

• Some HDMI audio signals input at the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN

2 jack of this unit may not be output at the DIGITAL AUDIO

(OPTICAL) jacks depending on the type of those HDMI audio

signals.

■Notes on the DTS software

The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to

digitally record the DTS bitstream will result in noise

being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit to

record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them,

the following considerations and adjustments need to be

made.

For DVDs and CDs encoded in DTS, when your player is

compatible with the DTS format, follow its operation

instructions to make a setting so that the analog signal will

be output from the player.

OPERATION English

Radio Data System is a data transmission system used by

FM stations in many countries. The Radio Data System

function is carried out among the network stations.

This unit can receive various Radio Data System data such

as PS (Program Service name), PTY (Program Type), RT

(Radio Text), CT (Clock Time), EON (Enhanced Other

Networks) when receiving Radio Data System

broadcasting stations.

■PS (Program Service name) mode

The name of the Radio Data System station being received

is displayed.

■PTY (Program Type) mode

There are 15 program types to classify Radio Data System

stations.

■RT (Radio Text) mode

Information about the program (such as the title of the

song or name of the singer) on the Radio Data System

station being received is displayed using a maximum of 64

alphanumeric characters, including the umlaut symbol. If

other characters are used for RT data, they are displayed

with an underbar (_).

■CT (Clock Time) mode

The current time is displayed and updated every minute.

If the data are accidentally cut off, “CT WAIT” may

appear.

■EON (Enhanced Other Networks)

See “EON function” on page 55.

Four modes are available for displaying Radio Data

System data. The PS, PTY, RT and/or CT indicators that

correspond to the Radio Data System data services offered

by the station light up in the front panel display.

1Set AMP/SOURCE/TV to SOURCE, then press

TUNER on the remote control to set this unit

to the tuner mode.

2Press FREQ/TEXT repeatedly on the remote

control to display the various Radio Data

System data offered by the transmitting

station.

• Do not press FREQ/TEXT until a Radio Data System indicator

lights up in the front panel display. You cannot change the mode

if you press the button prior to this. This is because this unit has

not finished receiving all of the Radio Data System data from

the station.

• Radio Data System data not offered by the station cannot be

selected.

• This unit cannot utilize the Radio Data System data source if

the signal received is not strong enough. In particular, the RT

mode requires a large amount of data, so it is possible that the

RT mode may not be displayed even if other Radio Data System

modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.

• Radio Data System data may not be received under poor

reception conditions. In such cases, press TUNING MODE

(AUTO/MAN’L MONO) so that the AUTO indicator

disappears from the front panel display. Although this will

change the reception mode to manual, Radio Data System data

may be displayed when you change the display to Radio Data

System mode.

• If the signal strength is weakened by external interference

during the reception of a Radio Data System station, the Radio

Data System data service may be cut off suddenly and

“...WAIT” will appear in the front panel display.

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS

A significant factor that creates the rich, full tones of a live

instrument are the multiple reflections from the walls of

the room. In addition to making the sound live, these

reflections enable us to tell where the player is situated,

and the size and shape of the room in which we are sitting.

■Elements of a sound field

In any environment, in addition to the direct sound coming

straight to our ears from the player’s instrument, there are

two distinct types of sound reflections that combine to

make up the sound field:

Early reflections

Reflected sounds reach our ears extremely rapidly (50 ms

– 100 ms after the direct sound), after reflecting from one

surface only — for example, from the ceiling or a wall.

Early reflections help add clarity to the direct sound.

Reverberations

These are caused by reflections from more than one

surface — walls, ceiling, the back of the room — so

numerous that they merge together to form a continuous

sonic afterglow. They are non-directional, and lessen the

clarity of the direct sound.

Direct sound, early reflections and subsequent

reverberation taken together help us to determine the

subjective size and shape of the room, and it is this

information that the digital sound field processor

reproduces in order to create sound fields.

If you could create the appropriate early reflections and

subsequent reverberations in your listening room, you

would be able to create your own listening environment.

The acoustics in your room could be changed to those of a

concert hall, a dance floor, or virtually any size room at

all. This ability to create sound fields at will is exactly

what YAMAHA has done with the digital sound field

processor.

You can enjoy good quality sound with the factory preset

parameters. Although you do not have to change the initial

settings, you can change some of the parameters to better

suit the input source or your listening room. The following

parameters are not always found in every program.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS

This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multi-channel playback from

almost any sound source (stereo or multi-channel). This unit is also equipped with a YAMAHA digital sound field

processing (DSP) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience.

Most of these sound field programs are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments found in famous

concert halls, music venues, and movie theaters.

The YAMAHA CINEMA DSP modes are compatible with all Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Surround sources. Set the input mode to

AUTO (see page 44) to enable this unit to automatically switch to the appropriate digital decoder according to the input signal.

• This unit’s DSP sound field programs are recreations of real-world acoustic environments made from precise measurements taken in

actual halls, etc. Thus you may notice variations in the strength of the reflections coming from the front, back, left and right.

• Feel free to choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, and not purely on the name of the program itself.

You can select from the following sound fields when playing movie or video sources. The sound fields marked MULTI

can be used with multi-channel sources, like DVD, digital TV, etc. Those marked 2-CH can be used with 2-channel

(stereo) sources like TV programs, video tapes, etc.

Program selection methods vary depending on sound field program types. For details on how to

select sound field programs, see “Basic operations” on page 37.

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS

SOUND FIELD

PROGRAMS English

You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your

listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.

■DSP Level (DSP level)

Function: Adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range.

Description: Depending on the acoustics of your listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP

effect level relative to the level of the direct sound.

Control Range: –6 dB to +3 dB

■Init. Delay (Initial delay)

Function: Changes the apparent distance the sound source is from the reflection face by adjusting the delay

between the direct sound and the first reflection heard by the listener.

Description: The smaller the value, the closer the reflection face seems to the sound source. The larger the value, the

farther it seems. For a small room, set to a small value. For a large room, set to a large value.

Control range: 1 to 99 ms

■Room Size (Room size)

Function: Adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround

sound field becomes.

Description: As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between

the original reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the

reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from

one to two, doubles the apparent length of the room.

Control range: 0.1 to 2.0

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS

■Liveness (Liveness)

Function: Adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early reflections

decay.

Description: The early reflections of a source sound decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall

surfaces than in one which has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces

is referred to as dead, while a room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as live.

The LIVENESS parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the liveness of the

room.

Control range: 0 to 10

■Sur. Init. Delay (Surround initial delay)

Function: Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection on the surround side of the sound

field. You can only adjust this parameter when at least two front channels and two surround channels

are used.

Control range: 1 to 49 ms

■Sur. Room Size (Surround room size)

Function: Adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field.

Control range: 0.1 to 2.0

■Sur. Liveness (Surround liveness)

Function: Adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual walls in the surround sound field.

Control range: 0 to 10

■SB. Init. Delay (Surround back initial delay)

Function: Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the surround back sound field.

Control range: 1 to 49 ms

■SB. Room Size (Surround back room size)

Function: Adjusts the apparent size of the surround back sound field.

Control range: 0.1 to 2.0

■Rev. Time (Reverberation time)

Function: Adjusts the amount of time it takes for the dense, subsequent reverberation sound to decay by 60 dB

(at 1 kHz). This changes the apparent size of the acoustic environment over an extremely wide range.

Description: The longer the reverberation time, the more live the listening room environment seems. The shorter the

reverberation time, the more dead the listening room environment seems.

Control range: 1.0 to 5.0 s

■Rev. Delay (Reverberation delay)

Function: Adjusts the time difference between the beginning of the direct sound and the beginning of the

reverberation sound.

Description: The larger the value, the later the reverberation sound begins. A later reverberation sound makes you

feel like you are in a larger acoustic environment.

Control range: 0 to 250 ms

■Rev. Level (Reverberation level)

Function: Adjusts the volume of the reverberation sound.

Description: The larger the value, the stronger the reverberation becomes.

table below to understand the speaker layout for each sound field program.

Be advised that there may be no or not enough sound output from speakers depending on the type of input source being played back.

Furthermore, there may be some channels that can only be used partially when they are adjusted to specific aspects of movies, such as

special sound effects, etc.

The abbreviations and symbols used in each diagram are as follows:

*1 When the q EX / q PL IIx / ES indicators are turned off

*2 When the q EX / q PL IIx / ES indicators are lit up and PR/SB Priority is set to Presence (see page 79)

Audio Delay (Audio delay)

Use to delay the sound output and synchronize it with the

video image. This may be necessary when using certain

LCD monitors or projectors.

Control range: 0 to 240 (ms)

Max Volume (Maximum volume)

Use to set the maximum volume level so that the sound

output level will not increase beyond the limited volume

level. For example, the original volume range is –30.0 dB

to –80 dB. However, if Max Volume is set to –5 dB, the

volume range becomes –5 dB to –90 dB.

Control range: –30.0dB to –80dB

Control step: 5 dB

• When a test tone is output, the Max Volume setting is

automatically deactivated because the volume level is

automatically set to 0 dB regardless of the current Max Volume

setting.

• The Max Volume setting takes priority over the Initial Volume

setting (see below). For example, if Initial Volume is set to 5 dB

and then Max Volume is set to 3 dB, the volume level is

automatically set to 3 dB when you turn on the power of this

unit next time. However, the Initial Volume setting is kept as

5 dB.

Initial Volume (Initial volume)

Use to set the volume level of the main room when the

power of this unit is turned on.

Choices: Off, –80dB to +16.5dB

Control step: 0.5 dB

The Max Volume setting (see above) takes priority over the Initial

Volume setting. Therefore, Initial Volume cannot be set beyond

the existing Max Volume setting.

PR/SB Priority (Presence/surround back speaker

priority)

Surround back and presence speakers do not output sound

simultaneously. You can select to prioritize either speaker

set when playing sources that contain surround back

channel signals using CINEMA DSP sound field

programs.

Choices: Presence, Surround Back

• Select “Presence” to use presence speakers even when

surround back channel signals are input. The signals

for the surround back channel will be output from

surround speakers.

• Select “Surround Back” to use surround back speakers

when a surround back channel signal is detected in a

CINEMA DSP sound field program. Presence channel

signals will be output from front speakers.

■Conversion (Video conversion)

Use this feature to activate or deactivate the video

conversion as well as the HDMI up-conversion of the

analog video signals input at the composite video, S-video

and component video jacks.

Choices: Off, On

• Select “Off” to deactivate the video conversion as well

as the HDMI up-conversion of the analog video

signals.

• Select “On” to activate the video conversion as well as

the HDMI up-conversion of the analog video signals.

For optimal video performance, THX recommends setting

Conversion to Off.

• Even when Conversion is set to On, HDMI digital signals are

not converted to analog video signals.

• If Conversion is set to Off, the Component I/P and HDMI Up-

Scaling features are deactivated.

• Converted video signals are only output at the MONITOR OUT

jacks. When recording, you must make the same type of video

connections (composite or S-video) between each component.

• When converting composite video or S-video signals from a

VCR to component video signals, the picture quality may suffer

depending on your VCR.

• The GUI display becomes grayed out under the following

circumstances:

– If Conversion is set to Off.

– If the selected HDMI Up-Scaling setting is not supported by

the HDMI component connected to the HDMI OUT jack on

the rear panel of this unit.

– If the resolution of the analog video signals being input is

either 1080i or 720p.

– If the selected HDMI Up-Scaling setting is lower than the

resolution of the analog video signals being input.

• Unconventional signals (such as those output from a game

console, etc.) input at the composite video, S-video or

component video jacks cannot be converted even if Conversion

is set to On.

• If unconventional signals are being input at the composite

video, S-video or component video jacks, the video output may

be abnormal as a result. In such cases, set Conversion to Off.

• Even if Conversion is set to Off, each video signal is converted

to display the GUI display menu and is output at the MONITOR

OUT jacks.

■Component I/P (Component interlace/

progressive)

Use this feature to activate or deactivate the analog I/P up-

conversion of the analog video signals input at the

composite, S-video and component video jacks so that the

analog video signals deinterlaced from 480i to 480p

(NTSC) or 576i to 576p (PAL) are output at the

MONITOR OUT jacks.

Choices: Off, On

• Select “Off” to deactivate the analog I/P up-conversion

of the analog video signals.

• Select “On” to activate the analog I/P up-conversion of

the analog video signals.

menu if Conversion is set to Off.

• If your video monitor does not support the analog video signals

with 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL) of resolution, the system

options menu items may not be displayed on your video

monitor when Component I/P is set to On.

■HDMI Up-Scaling (HDMI up-scaling)

Use this feature to activate or deactivate the HDMI up-

conversion of the analog video signals input at the

composite video, S-video and component video jacks so

that the up-scaled analog video signals (480i (NTSC) or

576i (PAL) → 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL) /1080i/720p

and 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL) → 1080i/720p) are

output at the HDMI OUT jack.

Choices: Through, 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL), 1080i,

720p

• Select “Through” not to up-scale any analog video

signals.

• Select “480p” (NTSC) or “576p” (PAL), “1080i” or

“720p” to up-scale analog video signals to 480p

(NTSC) or 576p (PAL), 1080i or 720p of resolution.

This menu item is not available and hence not visible in the GUI

menu if Conversion is set to Off.

indicated in the respective step, or when you press more than

one button simultaneously.

• The supplied remote control does not contain all possible codes

for commercially available audio and video components

(including YAMAHA components). If operation is not possible

with any of the remote control codes, program the new remote

control function using the Learn feature (see “Using LEARN”)

or use the remote control supplied with the component.

• Function programmed using the learn feature take priority over

remote control code functions.

You can program remote control codes from other remote

controls. Use the LEARN feature if you want to program

functions not included in the basic operations covered by

the remote control codes, or an appropriate remote control

code is not available. You can program any of the buttons

available in the component control area (see page 96). The

buttons can be programmed independently for each

component.

This remote control transmits infrared rays. If the other remote

control also uses infrared rays, this remote control can learn most

of its functions. However, you may not be able to program some

special signals or extremely long transmissions. (Refer to the

operating instructions for the other remote control.)

1Set AMP/SOURCE/TV to SOURCE.

2Press an input selector button to select a

source component.

3Place this remote control about 5 to 10 cm

apart from the other remote control on a flat

OPERATION English

The MACRO feature makes it possible to perform a series of operations with the press of a single button. For example,

when you want to play a CD, normally you would turn on the components, select the CD input, and press the play button

to start playback. The MACRO feature lets you perform all of these operations simply by pressing the CD macro button.

The buttons listed as macro buttons below are factory set with macro programs. You can also program your own macros

(see page 104).

*1 You can turn on some components (including YAMAHA components) connected to this unit by connecting them to the AC

OUTLETS on the rear panel of this unit. (Power control may not be synchronized with this unit depending on the component.

For details, refer to the operating instructions for the connected component.)

*2 When the remote control code for your TV is set up for either DTV or PHONO (see page 98), you can turn on the power of your TV

without selecting an input source. The remote control code set up for DTV takes priority over the one for PHONO.

*3 When TUNER is selected as the input source, this unit plays the last station received before the unit was set in the standby mode.

*4 Playback can be started for any YAMAHA remote control-compatible MD recorder, CD player, CD recorder, DVD player, or DVD

recorder. When using macros to operate other components, you will need to program the play button on the control area of that

component (see page 100) or set a remote control code (see page 98).

This unit allows you to configure a multi-room audio system. The Zone 2 and Zone 3 features enable you to set this unit

to reproduce separate input sources in the main room, second room (Zone 2) and third room (Zone 3). You can control

this unit from the second or third room using the supplied remote control.

You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-room functions of this unit:

• An infrared signal receiver in the second and/or third room.

• An infrared emitter in the main room. This emitter transmits the infrared signals from the remote control in the second

and/or third room to the main room (to a CD player or DVD player, for example).

• An amplifier and speakers for the second and/or third room.

• A video monitor for the second room.

• You do not need an extra amplifier and speakers for the second and/or third room if you want to use the internal amplifiers of this unit.

• Since there are many possible ways to connect and use this unit in a multi-room configuration, we recommend that you consult with

your nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center for the Zone 2 and Zone 3 connections that best meet your requirements.

• Some YAMAHA models are able to connect directly to the CONTROL OUT jack on this unit. If you own these products, you may not

need to use an infrared emitter. Up to six YAMAHA components can be connected as shown.

■Using the external amplifiers

To use an external amplifier in Zone 2, select EXT in Zone2 Amplifier (see page 89).

• When not using the main room, turn down the volume of this unit in the main room. Adjust the Zone 2/Zone 3 volume by using the

HDMI

112

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first

industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital A/V (audio/

video) interface.

Providing an interface between any A/V source (such as a

set-top box or A/V receiver) and an audio/video monitor

(such as a digital television – DTV), HDMI supports

standard, enhanced or high-definition video as well as

multi-channel digital audio using a single cable.

HDMI transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports

8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to

accommodate future enhancements and requirements.

When used in combination with HDCP (High-bandwidth

Digital Content Protection), HDMI provides a secure

audio/video interface that meets the security requirements

of content providers and system operators.

For further information on HDMI, visit the HDMI website

at “http://www.hdmi.org/”.

• Analog audio signals input at the audio input jacks other than

the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2 jack cannot be output at the

HDMI OUT jack. However, analog video signals input at the

composite video, S-video and component video jacks can be

up-converted to HDMI so that the digitally up-converted video

signals can be output at the HDMI OUT jack (see page 81).

■Assigning HDMI components

You can assign an HDMI component to the HDMI IN 1 or

HDMI IN 2 jack on the rear panel of this unit so that the

audio and video signals input via HDMI connection can

be simultaneously played back.

Use the I/O Assignment parameter in Input Select to

assign HDMI components (see page 74).

■Converting analog video signals to

HDMI

This unit is equipped with the HDMI up-conversion

feature where the analog video signals input at the

composite video, S-video and component video jacks on

the rear panel of this unit are digitally processed and up-

converted so that they can be output at the HDMI OUT

jack on the rear panel of this unit with all-digital

resolution quality.

Use the HDMI Up-Scaling parameter in the Option menu

to convert analog component video signals to HDMI

(see page 81).

When the analog video signals with 1080i or 720p of resolution

are up-converted to HDMI and output at the HDMI OUT jack, the

picture quality may worsen.

■ASA (Advanced Speaker Array)

ASA is a proprietary THX technology which processes

the sound fed to 2 side and 2 back surround speakers to

provide the optimal surround sound experience. When you

set up your home theater system using all eight speaker

outputs (Left, Center, Right, Surround Right, Surround

Back Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Left and

Subwoofer) placing the two Surround Back speakers close

together facing the front of the room will provide the

largest sweet spot. If for practical reasons you have to

place the Surround Back speakers apart, you will need to

go THX Audio Set-up screen and choose the setting that

most closely corresponds to the speaker spacing, which

will re-optimized the surround sound-field.

ASA is used in three new modes: THX Select2 Cinema,

THX Music Mode and THX Games Mode.

■Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives

you completely independent multi-channel audio. It

provides 5 full-range audio channels; 3 front channels

(left, center, and right), and 2 surround stereo channels.

An additional channel especially for bass effects, called

LFE (low frequency effect) is also provided giving the

system a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is counted as a 0.1

channel). By using 2-channel stereo for the surround

speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and

surround sound environment are possible than with Dolby

Surround. The wide dynamic range (maximum to

minimum volume) reproduced by the 5 full-range

channels and the precise sound orientation generated

using digital sound processing provide listeners with a

previously unheard of excitement and realism.

■Dolby Digital EX

Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output

channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done by using

a matrix decoder that derives 3 surround channels from the

2 in the original recording. For best results, Dolby Digital

EX should be used with movie sound tracks recorded with

Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this additional channel,

you can experience more dynamic and realistic moving

sound especially with scenes that have flyover and fly-

around effects.

■Dolby Pro Logic x

Dolby Pro Logic x is a new technology enabling 6.1 or

7.1 multi-channel playback from 2-channel or multi-

channel sources. There is a Music mode for music, a

Movie mode for movies and a Game mode for games.

■Dolby Surround

Dolby Surround uses a 4 channel analog recording system

to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front

left and right channels (stereo), a center channel for dialog

(monaural), and a surround channel for special sound

effects (monaural). The surround channel reproduces

sound within a narrow frequency range.

Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes

and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as

well. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit

employs a digital signal processing system that

automatically stabilizes the volume on each channel to

enhance moving sound effects and directionality.

■DTS 96/24

DTS 96/24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality

for multi-channel sound on DVD-Video, and is fully

backward-compatible with all DTS decoders. 96 refers to

a 96 kHz sampling rate (compared to the typical 48 kHz

sampling rate). 24 refers to 24-bit word length.

DTS 96/24 offers sound quality transparent to the original

96/24 master, and 96/24 5.1-channel sound with

full-quality full-motion video for music programs and

motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

■DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

Digital Surround

DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog

soundtracks of movies with a 6-channel digital sound

track, and is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie

theaters around the world. Digital Theater Systems Inc.

has developed a home theater system so that you can enjoy

the depth of sound and natural spatial representation of

DTS digital surround in your home. This system produces

practically distortion-free 6-channel sound (technically,

left, right and center channels, 2 surround channels, plus

an LFE 0.1 channel as a subwoofer, for a total of 5.1-

channels). This unit incorporates a DTS-ES decoder that

enables 6.1- channel reproduction by adding a surround

back channel to the existing 5.1-channel format.

■ITU-R

ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU

(International Telecommunication Union). ITU-R

recommends a standard speaker placement which is used

in many critical listening rooms, such as mastering

studios.

GLOSSARY

Audio information

122

GLOSSARY

■LFE 0.1 channel

This channel is for the reproduction of low bass signals.

The frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz.

This channel is counted as 0.1 because it only enforces a

low frequency range compared to the full-range

reproduced by the other 5/6 channels in Dolby Digital or

DTS 5.1/6.1-channel systems.

■Neo:6

Neo:6 decodes conventional 2-channel sources for

6 channel playback by. It enables playback with the full-

range channels with higher separation comparable to

digital discrete signal playback. Two modes are available;

Music mode for playing music sources and Cinema mode

for movies.

■PCM (Linear PCM)

Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog

audio signal is digitized, recorded and transmitted without

using any compression. This is used as a method of

recording CDs and DVD audio. The PCM system uses a

technique for sampling the size of the analog signal per

very small unit of time. Standing for pulse code

modulation, the analog signal is encoded as pulses and

then modulated for recording.

■Sampling frequency and number of

quantized bits

When digitizing an analog audio signal, the number of

times the signal is sampled per second is called the

sampling frequency, while the degree of fineness when

converting the sound level into a numeric value is called

the number of quantized bits.

The range of rates that can be played back is determined

based on the sampling rate, while the dynamic range

representing the sound level difference is determined by

the number of quantized bits. In principle, the higher the

sampling frequency, the wider the range of frequencies

that can be played back, and the higher the number of

quantized bits, the more finely the sound level can be

reproduced.

■THX Cinema processing

THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies

established by the world-renowned film production

company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX grew from George Lucas’

personal desire to make your experience of the film

soundtrack, in both movie theaters and in your home

theater, as faithful as possible to what the director

intended.

Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theaters

called dubbing stages and are designed to be played back

in movie theaters with similar equipment and conditions.

This same soundtrack is then transferred directly onto

Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is not changed for

playback in a small home theater environment.

THX engineers developed patented technologies to

accurately translate the sound from the movie theater

environment into the home, correcting the tonal and

spatial errors that occur. On this product, when the THX

indicator is on, THX features are automatically added in

Cinema modes (e.g. THX Cinema, THX Surround EX).

Adaptive decorrelation

In a movie theater, a large number of surround speakers

help create an enveloping surround sound experience, but

in a home theater there are usually only two speakers. This

can make the surround speakers sound like headphones

that lack spaciousness and envelopment. The surround

sounds will also collapse into the closest speaker as you

move away from the middle seating position. Adaptive

decorrelation slightly changes one surround channel's time

and phase relationship with respect to the other surround

channel. This expands the listening position and

creates – with only two speakers – the same spacious

surround experience as in a movie theater.

Re-equalization

The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively

bright and harsh when played back over audio equipment

in the home because film soundtracks were designed to be

played back in large movie theaters using very different

professional equipment. Re-equalization restores the

correct tonal balance for watching a movie soundtrack in a

small home environment.

Timbre matching

The human ear changes our perception of sound

depending on the direction from which it is coming. In a

movie theater, there is an array of surround speakers so

that the surround information is all around you. In a home

theater, you use only two speakers located to the side of

your head. The timbre matching feature filters the

information going to the surround speakers so that they

more closely match the tonal characteristics of the sound

coming from the front speakers. This ensures seamless

panning between the front and surround speakers.

processing is applied to the surround channels of all 5.1

encoded music sources such as DTS, Dolby Digital and

DVD-Audio to provide a wide stable rear soundstage.

■THX Select2

Before any home theater component can be THX Select2

certified, it must incorporate all the features described in

THX Cinema processing and also pass a rigorous series of

quality and performance tests. Only then can a product

feature the THX Select2 logo, which is your guarantee

that the Home Theater products you purchase will give

you superb performance for many years to come.

THX Select2 requirements cover every aspect of the

product including power amplifier and pre-amplifier

performance and operation, and hundreds of other

parameters in both the digital and analog domain.

■THX Select2 Cinema mode

THX Select2 Cinema mode plays 5.1 movies using all

8 speakers giving you the best possible movie watching

experience. In this mode ASA processing blends the side

surround speakers and back surround speakers providing

the optimal mix of ambient and directional surround

sounds.

DTS-ES (Matrix and 6.1 Discrete) and Dolby Digital

Surround EX encoded soundtracks will be automatically

detected in THX Select2 Cinema mode if the appropriate

flag has been encoded.

Some Dolby Digital Surround EX soundtracks are missing

the digital flag that allows automatic switching. If you

know that the movie that you are watching is encoded in

Surround EX, you can manually select the THX Surround

EX playback mode; otherwise, THX Select2 Cinema

mode will apply ASA processing to provide optimum

replay.

■THX Surround EX

THX Surround EX-Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint

development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX Ltd.

In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been

encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are

able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added

during the mixing of the program. This channel, called

Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in

addition to the currently available front left, front center,

front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer

channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity

for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings

more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization

than ever before.

Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital

Surround EX technology, when released into the home

consumer market may exhibit wording to that effect on the

packaging. A list of movies created using this technology

can be found on the Dolby web site at www.dolby.com.

A list of available DVD software titles encoded with this

technology can be found at www.thx.com.

Only receiver and controller products bearing the

THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX

mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology in the

home.

This product may also engage the THX Surround EX

mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material that is

not Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded. In such cases the

information delivered to the Surround Back channel will

be program dependent and may or may not be pleasing

depending on the particular soundtrack and the tastes of

the individual listener.

GLOSSARY

■Component video signal

With the component video signal system, the video signal

is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the

PB and PR signals for the chrominance. Color can be

reproduced more faithfully with this system because each

of these signals is independent. A monitor with

component input jacks is required in order to use the

component signal for output.

■Composite video signal

With the composite video signal system, the video signal

is composed of three basic elements of a video picture;

color, luminance and synchronization data. A composite

video jack on a video component transmits these three

elements combined.

■S-video signal

With the S-video signal system, the video signal normally

transmitted using a pin cable is separated and transmitted

as the Y signal for the luminance and the C signal for the

chrominance through the S-video cable. Using the

S VIDEO jack eliminates video signal transmission loss

and allows recording and playback of even more beautiful

images.

■CINEMA DSP

Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were

originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect

is best felt in a theater having many speakers and designed

for acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room

size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can

differ so widely, it’s inevitable that there are differences in

the sound heard. Based on a wealth of actually measured

data, YAMAHA CINEMA DSP uses YAMAHA original

sound field technology to combine Dolby Pro Logic,

Dolby Digital and DTS systems to provide the visual and

audio experience of a movie theater in the listening room

of your own home.

■SILENT CINEMA

YAMAHA has developed a natural, realistic sound effect

DSP algorithm for headphones.

Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound

field so that accurate representations of all the sound field

programs can be enjoyed on headphones.

■Virtual CINEMA DSP

YAMAHA has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP

algorithm that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field

surround effects without any surround speakers by using

virtual surround speakers.

It is even possible to enjoy Virtual CINEMA DSP using a

minimal two-speaker system that does not include a center

speaker.

GLOSSARY

ADDITIONAL

INFORMATION English

This unit employs YAMAHA Parametric Room Acoustic

Optimizer (YPAO) technology, together with the

Parametric EQ settings (see page 77), to optimize the

frequency characteristics of its parametric equalizer to

match your listening environment. YPAO uses a

combination of the following three parameters

(Frequency, Gain and Q factor) to provide highly precise

adjustment of the frequency characteristics.

■Frequency

This parameter is adjustable in one-third octave

increments between 63 Hz and 16 kHz.

■Gain

This parameter is adjustable in increments of 0.5 dB

between –20 and +6 dB.

■Q factor

The width of the specified frequency band is referred to as

the Q factor. This parameter is adjustable between the

values 0.5 and 10.

YPAO adjusts frequency characteristics to suit your

listening requirements using a combination of the above

three parameters (Frequency, Gain and Q factor) for each

equalizer band in this unit’s parametric equalizer. This unit

has 7 equalizer bands for each channel.

The use of multiple equalizer bands enables more precise

adjustments of frequency characteristics (as in Figure 2).

This is not possible using only a single equalizer band (as

in Figure 1).
