SPEAKER SETUP
Speaker Placement
Refer to the following diagram when you place the
speakers.
Speakers to Be Used
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality
with a 5-speaker system, using main speakers, rear speakers
and a 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 manufacture or speakers with the same tonal quality.
The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus
the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from
your present stereo system. The rear speakers are used for
the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker is for
the center 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.
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 high-
performance models that can reproduce sounds over the full
range for the center speaker and the rear 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 a
source encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS. The YAMAHA
Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for
natural and lively bass reproduction.

1.8 m
■ Main speakers
Place the right and left main speakers an equal distance
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each
speaker from each side of the TV monitor should be the
same.
■ Rear speakers
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing
slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) above the
floor.
■ Center speaker
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face
of your TV 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.
Note
• If the center speaker is not used, the sound will be heard from the
right and left main speakers. In that case, “CENTER SP” in the
SET MENU is set to the NONE position. (Refer to page 34 for
details.)
■ 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 the wall reflections.
CAUTION
Some types of speakers interfere with a TV monitor. If
this problem occurs, move the speakers away from the
monitor. If you cannot avoid installing the center speaker
or subwoofer near the TV monitor, use magnetically
shielded speakers.

Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Some
components require different connection methods and have different terminal names. Refer to the instructions for each
component to be connected to this unit.
When you connect other YAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or changer), connect
it to the terminals with the same number labels as !, #, $ etc. YAMAHA applies this labeling system to all its products.
Use RCA-type pin plug cables for connecting audio/video components with the exception described later.
The input and output terminals for pin plugs can be distinguished as follows:
Yellow video signals (composite)
White analog audio signals for the left channel
Red analog audio signals for the right channel
coaxial digital signals
After completing all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.

Connecting the Antennas
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal
strength. However, a properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor
reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality.
Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals.
■ Indoor FM antenna (included)
Firmly insert the connector into the FM ANT terminal. The
indoor FM antenna is only a simple antenna. For reception
with better sound quality, installing the outdoor FM antenna
(commercially available) is recommended.
Note
• Do not connect an outdoor FM antenna and the indoor FM
antenna at the same time.
■ Outdoor FM antenna
You may be unable to obtain good FM radio reception
depending on your local conditions (distance from the
broadcasting station, interposing buildings and
mountains, etc.). Consult your dealer or authorized service
center and be sure to install an antenna that suits your local
conditions.
Install the outdoor FM antenna (commercially available) in
a high place as far away from any roads as possible to avoid
being affected by automobile ignition noise.

■ AM loop antenna (included)
The AM loop antenna can be removed from the stand and
attached to a wall, etc. However, note that the reception
sensitivity may deteriorate if the antenna is attached to a
metal or steel reinforced wall.
Notes
• The AM loop antenna should be placed away from this unit.
• The AM loop antenna should always be connected, even if an
outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
■ Connecting the AM loop antenna
1 Press the tab and unlock the terminal hole.
2 Insert the AM loop antenna lead wires into the
AM ANT and GND terminals.
3 Return the tab to its original position to lock
the lead wires. Lightly pull the lead wires to
confirm a good connection.
4 Attach the loop antenna to the antenna stand.
5 Orient the AM loop antenna so that the best
reception is obtained.
■ Outdoor AM antenna
If you cannot obtain good reception with the AM loop
antenna, connect 5 m to 10 m of vinyl covered wire to the
AM ANT terminal and extend it outdoors from a window.
■ Ground (GND terminal)
For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect
the antenna GND terminal to a good earth ground. A good
earth ground is a metal stake driven into moist earth.

Connecting an Audio Component
■ PHONO terminals
These terminals are used to connect a turntable with an MM
or high-output MC cartridge. If you have a turntable with a
low-output MC cartridge, use an inline boosting transformer
or MC head amplifier when connecting to these terminals.
y
Connecting the ground (earth) wire of the turntable to the GND
terminal will normally minimize hum, but in some cases, better
results may be obtained with the ground wire disconnected.
CONNECTIONS
Be sure to connect the right channel (R), left channel (L),
input (IN) and output (OUT) properly.

Connecting a Video Component
■ Audio signal terminals
Be sure to connect the right channel (R), left channel (L),
input (IN) and output (OUT) properly.
■ Video signal terminals
Be sure to connect the input (IN) and output (OUT)
properly.
■ Digital audio signal terminals
If your DVD/LD player, TV/digital TV or satellite
tuner, etc. has coaxial or optical digital signal output
terminals, they can be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL
and/or OPTICAL digital signal input terminals. To make a
connection between the optical digital signal terminals,
remove the cover from each terminal, and then connect
them by using a commercially available optical fiber cable
that conforms to EIA standards. Other cables might not
function correctly.
When making connections between the digital signal
terminals, you should connect the components to the same-
named analog audio signal terminals of this unit, because a
digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck, MD
recorder or VCR connected to this unit.
Notes
• Be sure to attach the covers when the OPTICAL terminals are not
being used in order to protect them from dust.
• If your LD player has a Dolby Digital RF signal output terminal,
be sure to use the RF demodulator (separately purchased).
• No sound will be heard when connecting your LD player’s Dolby
Digital RF signal output terminal directly to this unit’s COAXIAL
DVD/LD digital signal input terminal.
y
• The input signal from the DVD/LD input terminals is selected in
the following order of priority with the input mode set to AUTO:
COAXIAL terminal → OPTICAL terminal → Analog terminal.
Refer to page 22 for details.
• All digital signal input terminals are applicable to sampling
frequencies of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.
