AUTO SETUP

This unit employs the YPAO (YAMAHA Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer) technology which lets you avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieves highly accurate sound adjustments automatically. The supplied optimizer microphone collects and this unit analyzes the sound your speakers produce in your actual listening environment.

Using Auto Setup

Once you have connected the supplied optimizer microphone to the OPTIMIZER MIC jack on the front panel and have placed it in a suitable location in your listening room, run “Auto Setup” in the GUI screen.

Notes

•Connect a video monitor to run “Auto Setup” (see page 23).

•Be advised that it is normal for loud test tones to be output during the “Auto Setup” procedure.

•To achieve the best results, make sure the room is as quiet as possible while the “Auto Setup” procedure is in progress. If there is too much ambient noise, the results may not be satisfactory.

1Connect the supplied optimizer microphone to the OPTIMIZER MIC jack on the front panel.
