PREPARATION

SPEAKER SETUP

Speakers

This unit has been designed to provide the best soundfield quality with a 6-speaker system, using main left and right speakers, rear left and right speakers, a center speaker, and a rear center speaker. If you use different brands of speakers (with different tonal qualities) in your system, the tone of a moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the same manufacturer or speakers with the same tonal quality.

The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from your present stereo system. The rear speakers are used for effect and surround sounds. The center speaker is for the center sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.). The rear center speaker supplements the rear (left and right) speakers and provides for more realistic front-to-back transitions.

The main speakers should be high-performance models and have enough power-handling capacity to accept the maximum output of your audio system. The other speakers do not have to be equal to the main speakers. For precise sound localization, however, it is ideal to use the models of equivalent performance with the main speakers.

Use of a subwoofer expands your

sound field

It is also possible to further expand your system with the addition of a subwoofer. The use of a subwoofer is effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels, but also for reproducing the LFE

(low-frequency effect) channel with high fidelity when playing back Dolby Digital or DTS signals. The

YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for natural and lively bass reproduction.

Speaker placement

Refer to the following diagram when you place the speakers.

Center speaker Main speaker (R)

Rear speaker (R)

Main speaker (L)

Subwoofer

1.8 m (6 feet)

Rear center speaker

Rear speaker (L)

Main speakers

Place the main left and right speakers an equal distance from the ideal listening position. The distance between each speaker and each side of the video monitor should also be the same.

Center speaker

Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face of your video monitor. Place the speaker as close to the monitor as possible (such as directly over or under the monitor) and centrally between the main speakers.

Rear speakers

Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (6 feet) above the floor.

Rear center speaker

Place the rear center speaker in the center between the rear left and right speakers at the same height from the floor as the rear speakers.

Subwoofer

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 main speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.

Note

• If you do not use any of effect speakers (rear, center and/or rear center), change the settings of SPEAKER SET items at the

SET MENU to designate the signals to other terminals you connect speakers to.

CAUTION

Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor.

0103V630_9-18_EN(U) 9 12/27/01, 7:45 PM

SPEAKER SETUP

Connecting the speakers

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.

CAUTION

• Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear panel of this unit.

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or the speakers.

If necessary, use the SET MENU to change the speaker mode settings according to the number and size of the speakers in your configuration after you finish connecting your speakers.

Speaker cables

10 mm (3/8”)

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 ridge.

1

Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation from each of the speaker cables.

ADJUSTING SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS

This section explains how to adjust speaker output levels using the test tone generator. When this adjustment is complete, the output level heard at the listening position should be the same from each speaker. This is important for best performance of the digital sound field processor, and the various decoders (Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro

Logic, Dolby Pro Logic and DTS).

Note

• Since this unit cannot enter the test mode while headphones are connected to this unit, be sure to unplug the headphones from the PHONES jack when using the test tone.

Before you begin

Using the test tone

Use the test tone to balance the output levels of the speakers. The adjustment of each speaker output level should be made at your listening position using the remote control.

• If “1E BASS” on the SET MENU is set to MAIN, the test tone will be circulated skipping the subwoofer.

y

• It is not necessary to readjust the speaker levels once they are set (as long as you do not change the speakers). You can enjoy listening to or watching the input source at the desired volume simply by adjusting the VOLUME knob (or VOLUME +/– on the remote control).

• If the output level of the effect speakers (center, rear left, rear right, and rear center) cannot be increased enough to match the level of the main speakers, set “1F MAIN Lv” on SET MENU to –10 dB (see page 43). This setting decreases the main speaker output level to about one-third of the normal level.

After you have set “1F MAIN Lv” on the SET MENU to

–10 dB, adjust the levels for the center and rear speakers again.

AUTO:

DTS:

In this mode, the input signal is selected automatically as follows:

1) Digital signal

2) Analog signal

In this mode, only the digital input signal encoded with DTS is selected, even if another signal is input at the same time.

ANALOG: In this mode, only the analog input signal is selected, even if a digital signal is input at the same time.

Notes

• When AUTO is selected, this unit automatically determines the type of signal. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting.

• When playing a disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS on some LD or DVD players, the sound output delays for a moment when playback resumes after a search because the digital signal is selected again.

• When playing a LD source that has not been digitally recorded, the sound may not be output for some LD players. In this case, set the input mode to ANALOG.

BASIC PLAYBACK

Notes on 96-kHz sampling digital

signals

The digital input jacks of this unit can handle 96-kHz sampling digital signals. Note the following when 96-kHz sampling digital signal is input to this unit:

– DSP programs cannot be selected.

– Sound will be output as 2-channel stereo from only the main left and right speakers. (There may be sound output from the subwoofer depending on the

SPEAKER MODE settings on the SET MENU.)

Therefore, the level of the effect speakers cannot be adjusted while listening to such a source.

Notes on playing DTS-CD/LDs

• If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform

DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection between this unit and the player.

• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set the input mode to ANALOG, this unit may reproduce the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. In this case, connect the source to a digital input jack and set the input mode to AUTO or DTS.

• If you switch the input mode to ANALOG while playing a source encoded with a DTS signal, this unit reproduces no sound.

• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal with the input mode set to AUTO;

– This unit automatically switches to the DTSdecoding mode (The “t” indicator lights up) after having detected the DTS signal. When playback of the DTS source is completed, the “t” indicator may flash. While this indicator is flashing, only DTS source can be played. If you want to play a normal

PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO.

– When the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or skip operation is performed during playback of a

DTS source, the “t” indicator may flash. If this status continues for longer than 30 seconds, this unit will automatically switch from “DTS-decoding” mode to PCM digital signal input mode. The “t” indicator will turn off.

SILENT CINEMA DSP

You can enjoy a powerful sound field similar to what you could expert from actual speakers with SILENT

CINEMA DSP. You can listen to SILENT CINEMA DSP by connecting your headphones to the PHONES jack while the digital sound field processor is on. Enjoy all the

DSP program using the headphones. The “SILENT” indicator lights up on the front panel display. (When sound effects are off, you listen to the source with normal stereo reproduction.)

Notes

• This feature is not available when 6CH INPUT is selected or

96-kHz sampling digital signals are input to this unit.

• The sound of LFE channel will be mixed and output from the headphone.

Notes

• If you turn off the sound effects, no sound is output from the center speaker, rear speakers, or rear center speaker.

• If you turn off the sound effects while a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is being output, the dynamic range of the signal is automatically compressed and the sounds of the center and rear speaker channels are mixed and output from the main speakers.

• The volume may be greatly reduced when you turn off the sound effects or if you set “4 D. RANGE” on the SET MENU to MIN. In this case turn on the sound effect.

• The sound of LFE channel will be directed to the main left and right or the subwoofer (or both) channels depending on the setting of “1E BASS” on the SET MENU.

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSING (DSP)

Understanding sound fields

A sound field is defined as the “characteristic sound reflections of a particular space.” In concert halls and other music venues, we hear early reflections and reverberations as well as the direct sound produced by the artist(s). The variations in the early reflections and other reverberations among the different music venues is what gives each venue its special and recognizable sound quality.

YAMAHA sent teams of sound engineers all around the world to measure the sound reflections of famous concert halls and music venues, and collect detailed sound field information such as the direction, strength, range, and delay time of those reflections. Then we stored this enormous amount of data in the ROM chips of this unit.

Recreating a sound field

Recreating the sound field of a concert hall or an opera house requires localizing the virtual sound sources in your listening room. The traditional stereo system that uses only two speakers is not capable of recreating a realistic sound field. YAMAHA’s DSP requires four effect speakers to recreate sound fields based on the measured sound field data.

The processor controls the strength and delay time of the signals output from the four effect speakers to localize the virtual sound sources and fully encompass the listener.

Hi-Fi DSP programs

The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments.

Features

A large round concert hall with a rich surround effect. Pronounced reflections from all directions emphasize the extension of sounds. The sound field has a great deal of presence, and your virtual seat is near the center, close to the stage.

This is the sound field at stage front in “The Bottom Line”, a famous New York jazz club, that seats up to 300 people. Its wide left to right seating arrangement offers a real and vibrant sound.

The ideal program for lively, dynamic rock music. The data for this program was recorded at

LA’s “hottest” rock club. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center-left of the hall.

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a big city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, “immediate” sound.

Using this program increases the listening position range. This is a sound field suitable for background music at parties, etc.
