Connecting to an External

Amplifier

If you want to increase the power output to the speakers, or want to use another amplifier, connect an external amplifier to the OUTPUT jacks as follows.

Notes

•When RCA pin plugs are connected to the OUTPUT jacks for output to an external amplifier, it is not necessary to use the corresponding SPEAKERS terminals. Set the volume of the amplifier connected to this unit to the maximum.

•No signals will be output from any other OUTPUT jacks than MAIN jacks when SPEAKER A is turned off with ZONE B selected for “1G SP B SET” on the SET MENU.

3SUBWOOFER jack

When using a subwoofer with built-in amplifier, including the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, connect the input jack of the subwoofer system to this jack. Low bass signals distributed from the main, center and/or rear channels are directed to this jack if they are assigned to this jack. (The cut-off frequency of this jack is 90 Hz.) The LFE (low-frequency effect) signals generated when Dolby Digital or DTS is decoded are also directed if they are assigned to this jack.

Notes

•Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on the subwoofer. It is also possible to adjust the volume level by using the remote control of this unit (see ADJUSTING THE LEVEL OF THE EFFECT SPEAKERS on page 69).

•Depending on the settings of “1 SPEAKER SET” and “10 LFE LEVEL” on the SET MENU, some signals may not be output from the SUBWOOFER jack.

Connecting to the 6CH INPUT

Jacks

This unit is equipped with 6 additional input jacks (left and right MAIN, CENTER, left and right SURROUND and SUBWOOFER) for discrete multi-channel input from an external decoder, sound processor or pre-amplifier.

Connect the output jacks on your external decoder to the 6CH INPUT jacks. Be sure to match the left and right outputs to the left and right input jacks for the main and surround channels.

Notes

•When 6CH INPUT is selected, the signals input to the 6CH INPUT jacks have priority over any other input source.

•When you select 6CH INPUT as the input source, this unit automatically turns off the digital sound field processor, and you cannot listen to DSP programs.

•When you select 6CH INPUT as the input source, settings of “1 SPEAKER SET (1A to 1E)” on the SET MENU do not apply.

•When headphones are used, only main L/R channels are output.

•Setting for “15 6CH INPUT SET” on the SET MENU will be applied when 6CH INPUT is selected.
