Using the Remote Control

The remote control transmits a directional infrared beam. Be sure to aim the remote control directly at the infrared sensor during operation. When the sensor is covered or there is a large object between the remote control and the sensor, the sensor cannot receive signals. The sensor may not be able to receive signals properly when it is exposed to direct sunlight or a strong artificial light (such as a fluorescent or strobe light). In this case, change the direction of the light or reposition the unit to avoid direct lighting. INTRODUCTION

SPEAKER SETUP

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 highperformance models that can reproduce sounds over the full range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.

Speaker Placement

Refer to the following diagram when you place the speakers. Main speaker (R)
Rear speaker (R) Subwoofer Main speaker (L) 1.8 m

INTRODUCTION PREPARATION

Center speaker Rear speaker (L)

s 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.

s Rear speakers

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

s Center speaker

ADVANCED OPERATION 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.
If the center speaker is not used, the center channel sound will be heard from the right and left main speakers. In that case, CENTER SP on the SET MENU is set to the NONE position. (Refer to page 30 for details.)

s 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. APPENDIX
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.

CONNECTIONS

Before Connecting Components
Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been completed. 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 White Red video signals (composite) analog audio signals for the left channel analog audio signals for the right channel coaxial digital signals

s S Video signal terminals
Use a special S VIDEO cable (commercially available) for the S VIDEO connection.
s Digital audio signal terminals
If your DVD/LD player, TV/digital TV or cable TV/satellite tuner, etc. has coaxial or optical digital signal output terminals, they can be connected to this units 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 samenamed 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.
The input signal from the DVD/LD or CBL/SAT 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 21 for details. All digital signal input terminals are applicable to sampling frequencies of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz and 96 kHz.

ADJUSTING THE SPEAKER BALANCE
This procedure lets you adjust the sound output level balance between the main, center and rear speakers by using the built-in test tone generator. When this adjustment is performed, 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 Dolby Pro Logic decoder, Dolby Digital decoder and DTS decoder.

s Switching the input mode
Press INPUT MODE (or the input selector button that you have pressed to select the input source on the remote control) repeatedly until the desired input mode is shown on the display.

s AUTO

In this mode, the input signal is selected in the following order of priority: 1. Digital signal encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS 2. Normal digital signal (PCM) 3. Analog signal (ANALOG)
Set the input mode to AUTO to play a DVD/LD source encoded with Dolby Digital. The sound output may be interrupted for some LD and DVD players in the following situation: The input mode is set to AUTO. A search is performed while playing the disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, and then disc playing is restored. The sound output is interrupted for a moment because the digital signal was selected again. The input mode cannot be changed for the CD, TUNER, TAPE/ MD, VCR, PHONO and VIDEO AUX sources because only analog signals are used for these. The current input mode appears on the display when the DVD/ LD, TV/digital TV or cable TV/satellite tuner source is selected, or the input mode is changed.
If digital signals are input from both the OPTICAL and COAXIAL terminals, the digital signal from the COAXIAL terminal is selected.
In this mode, only a digital signal encoded with DTS is selected, even if other signals are being input at the same time.

s ANALOG

In this mode, only an analog signal is selected, even if a digital signal is being input at the same time. Select this mode when you want to use an analog signal instead of a digital signal.
0104DSP-A519-24_EN 21 2/29/0, 4:54 PM
s Notes on playing a source encoded with DTS
If DATA ERROR appears on the display while playing an LD source encoded with DTS, stop playback and turn the player off and then on again. 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 an LD source encoded with DTS and set the input mode to ANALOG, there will be the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to connect the source to the digital input terminal 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 DTS and set the input mode to AUTO, there will be a short noise at first while the unit recognizes the DTS signal and turns on the DTS decoder. This is not a malfunction, and can be avoided by setting the input mode to DTS beforehand. In addition, if you continue to play a source encoded with DTS with the input mode setting left to AUTO, this unit automatically switches to the DTS-decoding mode to prevent noise from being generated during subsequent operation. (The t indicator lights up on the display.) The t indicator will flash immediately after playback of a source encoded with DTS has finished. Only a source encoded with DTS can be played back while this indicator is flashing. If you want to play a normal PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO.

s Notes on playing an LD source
Some audio/video components, such as an LD player, output different audio signals through their analog and digital terminals. Change the input mode as necessary. If the input mode is set to AUTO for the LD source, this unit automatically determines which type of signal the LD source contains. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and reproduces 5.1 channel sound. If the LD player is transmitting signals by a non-normal method, this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital or DTS signal. In this case, the decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog. If the LD source does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect the LD player to the analog terminals and set the input mode to AUTO or ANALOG. While you are operating the LD player and playing a disc encoded with Dolby Digital, if you switch from the pause or chapter forwarding function to normal playback, you may hear the PCM or analog sound an instant before the Dolby Digital sound is played.
s Notes on the digital signal
The digital input terminal of this unit can also handle 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals. (To utilize this, use a source that supports 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals and set the player for digital output. Refer to the instructions for the player.) Note the following when a 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signal is input to this unit. 1. The following indicator will appear on the display.
2. DSP programs cannot be selected. Sound will be output as normal 2-channel stereo sound using only the right and left main speakers. 3. Delay time and speaker output level cannot be adjusted.

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP) EFFECT

Selecting a DSP Program

You can enhance your listening experience by selecting a DSP program. Refer to pages 26 to 28 for details about each program.

s On the remote control

Make sure that the effect speakers (center and rear) and subwoofer are turned on. Press DSP. The indicator lights up for about three seconds. Use the numeric buttons (1 to 8) to select the desired program before the indicator goes off. The name of the selected program appears on the display.

DSP program name

If the selector dial is set to the DSP/TUN position, you can select a DSP program directly with the numeric buttons.
If desired, adjust the delay time and the sound output level of each speaker. (Refer to pages 33 and 34 for details.)

s On the front panel

You can select a DSP program for each of the input sources. Once you select a program, it is linked with the input source selected at that time. So, when you select the input source next time, the same program is automatically selected. When a monaural source is being played with PRO LOGIC/ Normal or PRO LOGIC/ENHANCED, no sound will be heard from the main speakers and the rear speakers. Sound can only be heard from the center speaker. However, if CENTER SP on the SET MENU is set to the NONE position, the center channel sound is output from the main speakers. When a source connected to the EXTERNAL DECODER INPUT terminals of this unit is selected, the digital sound field processor cannot be used. When high-rate 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals are input to this unit, no DSP program can be selected and the sound is only output from right and left main speakers as a normal 2-channel stereo sound.

INTRODUCTION PREPARATION BASIC OPERATION
Clearly reproduces dialog and sound effects in the latest sound form of science fiction films, thus creating a broad and expansive cinematic space amid the silence. You can enjoy science fiction films in a virtual-space sound field that includes Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital and DTS-encoded software employing the most advanced techniques.

Ideal for precisely reproducing the sound of the newest multi-track films. The sound field is made to be similar to that of the newest movie theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as much as possible. The data for the sound field of an opera house are used for the front presence, so the threedimensional feeling of the sound field is emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on the screen. By using the data for the sound field of a concert hall on the surround sound field, powerful reverberations are generated. You can enjoy watching action, adventure movies, etc. with strong presence.
This program is for reproducing sounds on a multi-track film, and is characterized by a soft and extensive sound field. The front presence of the sound field is relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen, restraining echo effect of conversations without losing clarity. For the surround sound field, the harmony of music or chorus sounds beautifully in a wide space at the rear of the sound field.

PROGRAM MONO MOVIE ( x ) Input source: Output channel: DSP: Monaural 1 channel 1
FEATURES This program is designed specifically to enhance monaural sources. Compared to a strictly mono setting, the sound image is wider and slightly forward of the speaker pair, lending an immediacy to the overall sound. It is particularly effective for old mono movie, news broadcasts and dialog. This program is furnished with a tight sound field in which the sound will not spread excessively at the front, but the rear surround produces dynamic sound expansion. It is the most suitable for sports programs.

SW/BOTH Select either the SW or BOTH position if your system includes a subwoofer. In either position, signals on the LFE channel and low bass signals (below 90 Hz) on the center and rear channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal if CENTER SP is set to the SML or NONE position and REAR SP is set to the SMALL position. In the SW position, low bass signals on the main channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal if MAIN SP is set to the SMALL position. In the BOTH position, low bass signals on the main channels are directed to both the main speakers and the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal.
When playing a 2-channel source (tape, MD, CD, video cassette etc.), select the BOTH position to direct low bass signals (below 90 Hz) to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal.
MAIN Select this position if your system does not include a subwoofer. In this position, besides full-range signals on the main channels, signals on the LFE channel and other low bass signals (below 90 Hz) that are distributed from other channels are directed to the right and left main speakers.

5. MAIN LVL

Choices: NORM (Normal)/10 dB Preset position: NORM (Normal)
7. D-RANGE (Adjusting the dynamic range)
Choices: MAX/STD (Standard)/MIN Preset position: MAX INTRODUCTION
NORM (Normal) Normally select this position. 10 dB Select this position if the sound output from the main speakers is too loud and cannot be balanced with the sound output from the center and rear speakers. In this position, the sound output from the main speakers is attenuated.
This adjustment is only effective when Dolby Digital is being decoded.
The setting of CENTER SP, REAR SP, MAIN SP and BASS OUT have no effect on a source connected to the EXTERNAL DECODER INPUT terminals on the rear of this unit. Once you have adjusted appropriately for CENTER SP, REAR SP, MAIN SP, BASS OUT and MAIN LVL, you do not have to change any settings unless your speaker system is modified.
6. D.D. LFE (Adjusting the output level of the LFE channel for Dolby Digital)
Control range: 20 dB to 0 dB (in 1 dB steps) Preset value: 0 dB
Dynamic range is the difference between the maximum level and the minimum level of sounds. Sounds on a movie originally designed for movie theaters feature a very wide dynamic range. Dolby Digital technology can modify the original sound track into a home audio format with this wide dynamic range unchanged. Powerful sounds of extremely wide dynamic range are not always suitable for home use. Depending on the condition of your listening environment, it may not be possible to increase the sound output to a level as high as that in a movie theater. However, at the normal level suitable for listening in your room, the low-level parts of source sound often cannot be heard well because they will be lost among noise in your environment. Dolby Digital technology has also made it possible to reduce an original sound tracks dynamic range for a home audio format by compressing the sound data. MAX In this position, a source encoded with Dolby Digital is reproduced in the original sound tracks wide dynamic range to provide you with powerful sounds just like those in a movie theater. Selecting this position will be even better if you can listen to a source at a high output level in a room specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment. STD (Standard) In this position, a source encoded with Dolby Digital is reproduced in the compressed dynamic range of the source that is suitable for low-level listening. MIN In this position, the dynamic range is more reduced than in the STD position. Selecting this position will be effective when you must listen to a source at a low level.

The SLEEP timer is off (SLEEP OFF). (This is the state before SLEEP is pressed.)

Flashes

The SLEEP indicator soon lights up on the display after the SLEEP timer has been set. The display returns to the previous indication.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the unit fails to operate normally, check the following points to determine whether the fault can be corrected by the simple measures suggested. If it cannot be corrected, or if the fault is not listed in the SYMPTOM column, disconnect the power cord and contact your authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center.

s General

SYMPTOM
The unit fails to turn on when STANDBY/ON (or POWER) is pressed, or enters in the standby mode soon after the power has been turned on. The unit does not work normally.
The power cord is not connected or the plug is not completely inserted. The IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch on the rear panel is not fully set to the right or left position. The internal microcomputer has been frozen by an external electric shock (lightning, excessive static electricity, etc.) or by a power supply with low voltage. Incorrect input or output cable connections. An appropriate input source has not been selected. The speaker connections are not secure. SPEAKERS have not been set properly. The sound is muted. Digital signals other than PCM audio and the signals encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS which this unit cannot reproduce are being input to this unit by a CD-ROM, etc.

REMEDY

Firmly connect the power cord. Set the switch fully to the right or left position when the unit is in the standby mode.

Refer to page

Set the unit in the standby mode and disconnect the AC power cord from the AC power outlet. After about 30 seconds have passed, connect the power and operate the unit again. Connect the cables properly. If the problem persists, the cables may be defective. Select an appropriate input source with INPUT SELECTOR or TAPE/MD MON / EXT. DECODER (or the input selector buttons). Secure the connections. Set SPEAKERS corresponding to the speakers in use to the ON position. Set VOLUME to the m position, press MUTE to cancel a mute and adjust the volume. Play a source whose signals this unit can reproduce.

The player must be connected to a digital audio signal input terminal of this unit besides the analog audio signal terminal connections. Set a proper input mode to turn on the built-in DTS decoder. Set the input mode of the currently selected input source to DTS.
Set the players digital volume control at the maximum, neutral or ineffective position.
In the AUTO mode, the DTS-decoding mode cannot be automatically changed to the normal (PCM) digital signal input mode.
Set the input mode to AUTO again.
It is necessary to use a DTS decoder to play back a source encoded with DTS, so the player which plays back the source must be connected to a digital audio input terminal of this unit in the way described in this manual. If this connection is not made or only a D-to-A converter is being used without using a DTS decoder, only a loud hissing noise will be heard when you play back the source. The t indicator will flash when the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or skip operation is performed while playing back a source encoded with DTS. If this status continues for 30 or more seconds, the unit will automatically switch from DTS-decoding mode to PCM digital signal input mode and the t indicator will go out.

s LFE 0.1 Channel

This channel is for reproduction of low bass signals. The frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz. This channel is called the channel 0.1 because it only reproduces a low frequency range compared to the full-range from 20 Hz to 20 kHz that is reproduced by the 5 channels in a Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel system.
s DTS (Digital Theater System) Digital Surround
DTS was developed to replace the analog soundtracks of movies with six discrete channels of digital soundtracks, and it is now installed in many theaters around the world. The DTS digital playback system changed the way we experienced movies in theaters with six discrete channels of superb digital audio. DTS technology, through intense research and development has made it possible to deliver similar encode/decode discrete technology to home audio surround-sound entertainment. DTS Digital Surround is an encode/decode system which delivers six channels of master-quality, 20-bit audio; technically, it is 5.1 channels, which means 5 full-range (left, center, right and two surround) channels, plus a subwoofer (LFE) channel (as 0.1). It is compatible with the 5.1 speaker configurations that are currently available for home theater systems.

s S VIDEO Signal

The S VIDEO signal is separated and transmitted as the Y signal which indicates the luminance and the C signal which indicates the chroma of the video signal (composite signal). Using the S VIDEO terminal eliminates video signal transmission loss and allows recording and playback of even more beautiful images.
