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 advantage of Yamahas 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 wide range of listening environments movie theater, concert hall, and so on. In addition, you get incredible realism from sources encoded with Dolby Surround using the built-in Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder. Please read this owners manual carefully and store it in a safe place for later reference.
What is it that makes live music so good? Todays advanced sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to the sound of a live performance, but chances are youll 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 this same sound in your own listening room, so youll feel all the sound of a live concert.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel (used for dialog), and the rear surround sound channel (used for sound effects, background noise, and other ambient noises). The center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from the action on the screen while experiencing good stereo imaging. Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of pre-recorded video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable broadcasts. When you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder decodes the signal and distributes the surround-sound effects.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround + DSP
A Dolby Surround sound system shows its full ability in a large movie theater, because movie sounds are originally designed to be reproduced in a large movie theater using many speakers. It is difficult to create a sound environment similar to that of a movie theater in your listening room, because the room size, materials of inside walls, the number of speakers, etc. of your listening room is much different from those of a movie theater. Yamaha DSP technology made it possible to present you with nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in your listening room by compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your listening room with its original digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround sound field.
Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated 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.
This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital signal processing system. This system improves the stability of sound at each channel and minimizes crosstalk between channels, so that positioning of sounds around the room is more accurate compared with conventional analog signal processing systems. In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance control. This always assures you the best performance without manual adjustment.

The combination of Dolby Pro Logic Surround and DSP is used on the sound field program PRO LOGIC ENHANCED.

SPEAKER SETUP SPEAKERS TO BE USED
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5 speaker configuration. The most effective speakers to use with this unit are main speakers, rear speakers and a center speaker. You may omit the center speaker. (Refer to the 4-Speaker Configuration shown below.) The main speakers are used for the majority of the sound output as well as effect sounds. The rear speakers are used for the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker is for the center sounds (dialog, etc.) within programs encoded with Dolby Surround. The center speaker needs to be equal in power to the main speakers, though the rear speakers should be slightly lower in power. However, all the speakers should have high enough power handling to accept the maximum output of this unit.
5-Speaker Configuration This configuration is the most effective and recommended one. In this configuration, the center speaker is necessary as well as the rear speakers. If the program DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED is selected, conversations will be output from the center speaker and the ambience will be excellent. Set the center channel mode to the NORMAL or WIDE
position. (For details, refer to page 20.)
Main L Main R Main L Main R
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
The recommended 5-speaker configuration requires a pair of main speakers, a center speaker, and a pair of rear speakers (sometimes referred to as surround speakers). When arranging your speakers, refer to the illustration and information below.
Main: Position the main speakers at equal distances away from the listening position and at equal distances on either side of the center speaker.
Rear: Position rear speakers directly behind the listening position at a height of approximately 1.8m (6 feet) up from the floor, facing slightly inward. If the speakers cannot be placed behind the listening position, they may also be placed at the side of the listening position, facing toward the listening position.
Center: Position the center speaker directly in front of the listening position between the main speakers. (When placing on or near a television, use a magnetically shielded speaker to avoid unwanted interference.)
4-Speaker Configuration The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If the program DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED is selected, the center sound is output from the left and the right main speakers. However, the sound effect of other programs can be the same as that of the 5-speaker configuration. Be sure to set the center channel mode to the PHANTOM
position. (For details, refer to page 20.)
