PROFILE OF THIS UNIT
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 full advantage of Yamaha’s undisputed leadership in the
field of digital audio processing to bring you a whole new world of listening experiences. Follow the instructions in
this manual carefully when setting up your system, and this unit will sonically transform your room into a totally
new listening environments –movie theater, concert hall, and so on. In addition, you get incredible realism from
Dolby-encoded video sources using the built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder.
Please read this owner’s manual carefully and store it in a safe place for later reference.
this same sound in your own listening room, so you’ll
feel all the sound of a live concert.
Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisti-
cated measuring equipment, have even made it
possible to capture the acoustics of a variety of venues
such as an actual concert hall, theater, etc. to allow
you to accurately recreate one of several actual live
performance environments, all in your own home.
Digital Sound Field Processing
What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s
advanced sound reproduction technology lets you get
extremely close to the sound of a live performance,
but chances are you’ll still notice something missing:
the acoustic environment of the live concert hall.
Extensive research into the exact nature of the sonic
reflections that create the ambience of a large hall has
made it possible for Yamaha engineers to bring you
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
The Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder program lets
you experience the dramatic realism and impact of
Dolby Surround movie theater sound in your own
home. Dolby Pro Logic gets its name from its profes-
sional-grade steering logic circuitry, which provides
greater effective front and rear channel separation for
a much higher degree of realism than the “passive”
Dolby Surround circuits found in less sophisticated
home audio/video equipment. Dolby Pro Logic
Surround provides a true center channel, so that there
are four independent channels, unlike passive Dolby
Surround which has in effect only three channels: left,
right, and rear. This center channel allows listeners
seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the
dialog originating from action on the screen while
getting a stereo effect as well.
This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a
digital signal processing system. This system in-
creases sound stability at each channel and minimizes
crosstalk between channels compared to conventional
analog Dolby signal processing.
In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic
input balance control. This circuit always presents
you the best surround conditions without performing
manual adjustments.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround + DSP
You can also enjoy Dolby Pro Logic with two modes
of Digital Sound field processing. These combinations
expand the surround effect. One is the “EN-
HANCED” Dolby Pro Logic Surround which recre-
ates the surround effect of the 35 mm film movie
theater. The other is the sound field program ”70 mm
MOVIE THEATER”. Which recreates the listening
experience of a 70mm film theater.
Directional Enhancement Circuit + DSP
The newly featured directional enhancement circuit
expands and focuses the digital sound field by
emphasizing position of sound.
This effect puts you in the midst of the action, while
centering and focusing your attention to the screen.
This circuit is available on the sound field program
“TV THEATER” and “SPORTS”.
CINEMA DSP
The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates
these programs are created by the combination of
Dolby Pro Logic and YAMAHA DSP technology.

SPEAKER SETUP FOR THIS UNIT
SPEAKERS TO BE USED
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a fivespeaker configuration. The speakers to be
used with this unit will be front speakers, rear speakers, and a center speaker.
The front speakers are used for the main source sound. These are usually a much larger, high-quality loudspeaker
than you will use for the surround sound effects. The center speaker is used for the center sound (dialog, etc.)
encoded with the Dolby Surround. And the rear speakers are used for special effects that enhance the surround
sound. The rear and center speakers do not need to be equal to the front speakers. However, all the speakers
should have high enough power handling to accept the maximum output of this unit.
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION
Five-Speaker Configuration
This configuration is the most effective and recom-
mended one. In this configuration, the center speaker
is used for dialog when you select the digital sound
field program DOLBY PRO LOGIC, DOLBY PRO
LOGIC ENHANCED, 70mm MOVIE THEATER, TV
THEATER, or SPORTS.
Set the center channel mode to the “NORMAL” or
“WIDE” position. (For details, refer to page 19.)

stereo speaker setup)
Center: Precisely between the front speakers. (To avoid
interference with TV sets, use a magnetically
shielded speaker.) When two center speakers are
used, place these to the right and left of your TV
set or video monitor.
Rear: Behind your listening position, facing slightly
inward. Nearly six feet (approx. 1.8 m) up from the

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.

Connecting the AM loop antenna
123
The AM loop antenna should be placed apart from the main unit. The antenna may be hung on a wall.
The AM loop antenna should be kept connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
GND terminal
For maximum safety and minimum interference,
connect the GND terminal to a good earth ground.
A good earth ground is a metal stake driven into
moist earth.
Notes:
When connecting the indoor FM
antenna, insert its connector into the
FM ANT terminal firmly.
If you need an outdoor FM antenna to
improve FM reception quality, either
300-ohm feeder or coaxial cable may be
used. In locations troubled by electrical
interference, coaxial cable is preferable.
Orient so that the best
reception is obtained.

ADJUSTMENT BEFORE OPERATION
SPEAKER BALANCE ADJUSTMENT
This procedure lets you adjust the sound output level balance between the front, center, and rear speakers using
the built-in test tone generator. With this adjustment, 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. Otherwise, the result may not be satisfactory.

Notes:
Once you have completed these adjustments, you can
adjust whole sound level on your audio system by using
the VOLUME control (or the MASTER VOLUME keys
on the remote control transmitter).
If you use external power amplifiers, their volume
controls may also need to be adjusted to achieve the
proper balance.
If there is insufficient sound output from the center
and rear speakers, you may decrease the front speaker
output level by setting the FRONT LEVEL switch on
the rear panel to “–10 dB”.
Note:
If the center channel mode is in the “PHANTOM”
position, the sound output level of the center speaker
cannot be adjusted. This is because in this mode, the
center sound is automatically output from the left and
right front speakers.
If you press the LEVEL +/– switch without previously
pressing the CENTER, or REAR switch, the last
channel selected will be changed.
