Surround speakers (SR and SL)  
Speaker placement  
The speaker layout below shows the standard ITU-R  
speaker setting. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP and  
multi-channel audio sources.  
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround  
sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening  
position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m above the  
floor.  
*
Surround back speakers (SBR and SBL)  
The surround back speakers supplement the surround  
speakers and provide for more realistic front-to-back  
transitions. Place these speakers directly behind the  
listening position and at the same height as the surround  
speakers. They should be positioned at least 30 cm apart.  
Ideally, they should be positioned at the same width as the  
front speakers.

ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU  
(International Telecommunication Union).

Subwoofer  
The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active  
Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only  
for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels,  
but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low-  
frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and  
DTS software. 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  
front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the  
room to reduce wall reflections.

Presence speakers (PR and PL)  
Presence speakers supplement the sound from the front  
speakers with extra ambient effects produced by CINEMA  
DSP (see page 49). These effects include sounds that  
filmmakers intend to locate a little farther back behind the  
screen in order to create more theater-like ambience. Place  
these speakers at the front of the room about 0.5 – 1 m  
outside the front speakers, facing slightly inwards, and  
about 1.8 m above the floor.

Front speakers (FR and FL)  
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus  
effect sounds. Place these speakers an equal distance from  
the ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker  
from each side of the video monitor should be the same.  
Center speaker (C)  
The center speaker is for the center channel 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. Align the front  
face of the center speaker with the front face of your video  
monitor. Place the speaker centrally between the front  
speakers and as close to the monitor as possible, such as  
directly over or under it.

Tighten the knob to secure the wire.  
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R),  
“+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are  
faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the  
polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound  
will be unnatural and lack bass.

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

to the OPTIMIZER MIC jack on the front  
panel.

SILENT CINEMA  
If auto setup stops and error messages appear on the screen,  
follow the troubleshooting on page 28.  
YPAO performs the following checks and makes  
appropriate adjustments to give you the best possible  
sound from your system.  
WIRING:  
Notes  
Checks which speakers are connected and the polarity of  
each speaker.  
After you have completed the auto setup procedure, be sure to  
disconnect the optimizer microphone.  
The optimizer microphone is sensitive to heat.  
– Keep it away from direct sunlight.  
– Do not place it on top of this unit.  
SIZE:  
Checks the speakers frequency response and sets the  
crossover/high cut frequency for the subwoofer to improve  
the sound relationship between the speakers and the  
subwoofer.  
2
Place the optimizer microphone on a flat  
level surface with the omni-directional  
microphone head upward, at your normal  
listening position.  
If possible, use a tripod (etc.) to affix the optimizer  
mic at the same height as your ears would be when  
you are seated in your listening position.  
DISTANCE:  
Checks the distance of each speaker from the listening  
position and adjusts the delay of each channel so that the  
sound from each speaker reaches the listening position at  
the same time. Also checks the phase of each speaker.  
Optimizer microphone position  
EQUALIZING:  
Adjusts frequency and levels of each channel’s parametric  
equalizer to reduce coloration across the channels and  
create cohesive sound field. This is particularly  
a
important if you use different brands or sizes of speakers  
for some channels or have a room with unique sonic  
characteristics.  
YPAO equalizing calibration incorporates three  
parameters (frequency, level and Q factor) for each of the  
seven bands in its parametric equalizer to provide highly  
precise automatic adjustment of frequency characteristics.  
LEVEL:  
Checks and adjusts the sound level (volume) of each  
speaker.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS  
This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multi-channel playback from  
almost any sound source (stereo or multi-channel). This unit is also equipped with a YAMAHA digital sound field  
processing (DSP) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience.  
Most of these sound field programs are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments found in famous  
concert halls, music venues, and movie theaters.  
y
The YAMAHA CINEMA DSP modes are compatible with all Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Surround sources. Set the input mode to  
AUTO (see page 37) to enable this unit to automatically switch to the appropriate digital decoder according to the input signal.  
Notes  
This unit’s DSP sound field programs are recreations of real-world acoustic environments made from precise measurements taken in  
the actual hall, etc. Thus you may notice variations in the strength of the reflections coming from the front, back, left and right.  
Feel free to choose sound field program based on your listening preference, and not purely on the name of the program itself.  
a
For movie/video sources  
You can select from the following sound fields when playing movie or video sources. The sound fields marked “MULTI”  
can be used with multi-channel sources, like DVD, digital TV, etc. Those marked “2-CH” can be used with 2-channel  
(stereo) sources like TV programs, video tapes, etc.  
Program selection methods vary depending on sound field program types. For details on how to  
select sound field programs, see “Selecting sound field programs” on pages 32 to 36.

ZONE 2 (RX-V757 ONLY)  
This unit allows you to configure a multi-room audio system. You can control this unit from the second room using the  
supplied remote control.  
Only analog signals are sent to the second room. Any source you want to listen to in the second room must be  
connected using the analog (AUDIO L/R) input jacks on this unit.  
Zone 2 connections  
You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-room functions of this unit:  
An infrared signal receiver in the second room.  
An infrared emitter in the main room. This emitter transmits the infrared signals from the remote control in the second  
room to the main room (to a CD player, for example).  
An amplifier and speakers for the second room.  
y
Since there are many possible ways to connect and use this unit in a multi-room installation, we recommend that you consult with your  
nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center about the Zone  
2
connections that best meet your requirements.  
Some YAMAHA models are able to connect directly to the REMOTE CONTROL OUT jack of this unit. If you own these products,  
you may not need to use an infrared emitter. Up to

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS  
EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS  
What is a sound field  
Changing parameter settings  
What really creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument  
are the multiple reflections from the walls of the room. In  
addition to making the sound “live”, these reflections  
enable us to tell where the player is situated, and the size  
and shape of the room in which we are sitting.  
You can enjoy good quality sound with the factory preset  
parameters. Although you do not have to change the initial  
settings, you can change some of the parameters to better  
suit the input source or your listening room.

These are caused by reflections from more than one  
surface – walls, ceiling, the back of the room – so  
numerous that they merge together to form a continuous  
sonic “afterglow”. They are non-directional, and lessen  
the clarity of the direct sound.

Direct sound, early reflections and subsequent  
reverberation taken together help us to determine the  
subjective size and shape of the room, and it is this  
information that the digital sound field processor  
reproduces in order to create sound fields.

Select the sound field program you want to  
adjust.  
If you could create the appropriate early reflections and  
subsequent reverberations in your listening room, you  
would be able to create your own listening environment.  
The acoustics in your room could be changed to those of a  
concert hall, a dance floor, or virtually any size room at  
all. This ability to create sound fields at will is exactly  
what YAMAHA has done with the digital sound field  
processor.

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS  
SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS  
You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your  
listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.  
DSP LEVEL (DSP level)  
Function:  
Description:  
Adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range.  
Depending on the acoustics of your listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP  
effect level relative to the level of the direct sound.  
Control range: –6 dB to +3 dB  
INIT. DLY/P. INIT. DLY (Initial delay)  
Function:  
Changes the apparent distance from the source sound by adjusting the delay between the direct sound  
and the first reflection heard by the listener.  
Description:  
Control range:  
The smaller the value, the closer the sound source seems to the listener. The larger the value, the farther  
it seems. For a small room, set to a small value. For a large room, set to a large value.

ROOM SIZE/P. ROOM SIZE (Room size)  
Function:  
Adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround  
sound field becomes.  
Description:  
As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between  
the original reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the  
reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from  
one to two, doubles the apparent length of the room.

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS  
LIVENESS (Liveness)  
Function: Adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early reflections  
decay.  
Description:  
The early reflections of a sound source decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall  
surfaces than in one which has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces  
is referred to as “dead”, while a room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as “live”. The  
LIVENESS parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the “liveness” of the  
room.

Function:  
Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the surround back sound field.  
Control Range:  
1 to 49 msec  
SB ROOM SIZE (Surround back room size)  
Function: Adjusts the apparent size of the surround back sound field.  
Control Range: 0.1 to 2.0

REV.TIME (Reverberation time)  
Function:  
Adjusts the amount of time it takes for the dense, subsequent reverberation sound to decay by 60 dB (at  
1 kHz). This changes the apparent size of the acoustic environment over an extremely wide range.  
Set a longer reverberation time for “dead” sources and listening room environments, and a shorter time  
for “live” sources and listening room environments.

Dolby Surround  
Audio formats  
Dolby Surround uses a 4 channel analog recording system  
to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front  
left and right channels (stereo), a center channel for dialog  
(monaural), and a surround channel for special sound  
effects (monaural). The surround channel reproduces  
sound within a narrow frequency range.  
Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes  
and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as  
well. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit  
employs a digital signal processing system that  
automatically stabilizes the volume on each channel to  
enhance moving sound effects and directionality.  
Dolby Digital  
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives  
you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3  
front channels (left, center, and right), and 2 surround  
stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range audio  
channels. With an additional channel especially for bass  
effects, called LFE (low frequency effect), the system has  
a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel). By  
using 2-channel stereo for the surround speakers, more  
accurate moving sound effects and surround sound  
environment are possible than with Dolby Surround. The  
wide dynamic range (from maximum to minimum  
volume) reproduced by the 5 full-range channels and the  
precise sound orientation generated using digital sound  
processing provide listeners with previously unheard of  
excitement and realism.  
DTS 96/24  
DTS 96/24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality  
for multi-channel sound on DVD-Video, and is fully  
backward-compatible with all DTS decoders. “96” refers  
to a 96 kHz sampling rate (compared to the typical 48 kHz  
sampling rate). “24” refers to 24-bit word length. DTS 96/  
24 offers sound quality transparent to the original 96/24  
master, and 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-  
motion video for music programs and motion picture  
soundtracks on DVD-video.  
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up  
to a 5.1-channel configuration can be freely selected for  
your enjoyment.  
Dolby Digital EX  
Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output  
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a  
matrix decoder that derives 3 surround channels from the  
2 in the original recording. For the best results, Dolby  
Digital EX should be used with movie sound tracks  
recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this  
additional channel, you can experience more dynamic and  
realistic moving sound especially with scenes with  
“flyover” and “fly-around” effects.  
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
Digital Surround  
DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog  
soundtracks of movies with a 6-channel digital sound  
track, and is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie  
theaters around the world. Digital Theater Systems Inc.  
has developed a home theater system so that you can enjoy  
the depth of sound and natural spatial representation of  
DTS digital surround in your home. This system produces  
practically distortion-free 6-channel sound (technically, a  
left, right and center channels, 2 surround channels, plus  
an LFE 0.1 channel as a subwoofer, for a total of 5.1-  
channels). The unit incorporates DTS-ES decoder that  
enables 6.1-channel reproduction by adding the surround  
back channel to existing 5.1-channel format.  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
Dolby Pro Logic II is an improved technique used to  
decode vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround software.  
This new technology enables a discrete 5-channel  
playback with 2 front left and right channels, 1 center  
channel, and 2 surround left and right channels (instead of  
only 1 surround channel for conventional Pro Logic  
technology). Music and Game modes are also available for  
2-channel sources in addition to the Movie mode.  
Neo:6  
Neo:6 decodes the conventional 2-channel sources for 6  
channel playback by the specific decoder. It enables  
playback with the full-range channels with higher  
separation just like digital discrete signal playback. Two  
modes are available: “Music mode” for playing music  
sources and “Cinema mode” for movies.  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a new technology enabling discrete  
multi-channel playback from 2-channel or multi-channel  
sources. There is a Music mode for music, a Movie mode  
for movies and a Game mode for games.

Sound field programs  
Audio information  
CINEMA DSP  
ITU-R  
Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were  
originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect  
is best felt in a theater having many speakers and designed  
for acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room  
size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can  
differ so widely, it’s inevitable that there are differences in  
the sound heard as well. Based on a wealth of actually  
measured data, YAMAHA CINEMA DSP uses  
YAMAHA original sound field technology to combine  
Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS systems to  
provide the visual and audio experience of movie theater  
in the listening room of your own home.  
ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU  
(International Telecommunication Union). ITU-R  
recommends a standard speaker placement which is used  
in many critical listening rooms, especially for mastering  
purposes.  
LFE 0.1 channel  
This channel is for the reproduction of low bass signals.  
The frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz.  
This channel is counted as 0.1 because it only enforces a  
low frequency range compared to the full-range  
reproduced by the other 5/6 channels in Dolby Digital or  
DTS 5.1/6.1-channel systems.  
SILENT CINEMA  
PCM (Linear PCM)  
YAMAHA has developed a natural, realistic sound effect  
Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog  
audio signal is digitized, recorded and transmitted without  
using any compression. This is used as a method of  
recording CDs and DVD audio. The PCM system uses a  
technique for sampling the size of the analog signal per  
very small unit of time. Standing for “pulse code  
modulation”, the analog signal is encoded as pulses and  
then modulated for recording.  
DSP algorithm for headphones.  
Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound  
field so that accurate representations of all the sound field  
programs can be enjoyed on headphones.  
Virtual CINEMA DSP  
YAMAHA has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP  
algorithm that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field  
surround effects even without any surround speakers by  
using virtual surround speakers.  
It is even possible to enjoy Virtual CINEMA DSP using a  
minimal two-speaker system that does not include a center  
speaker.  
Sampling frequency and number of  
quantized bits  
When digitizing an analog audio signal, the number of  
times the signal is sampled per second is called the  
sampling frequency, while the degree of fineness when  
converting the sound level into a numeric value is called  
the number of quantized bits.  
The range of rates that can be played back is determined  
based on the sampling rate, while the dynamic range  
representing the sound level difference is determined by  
the number of quantized bits. In principle, the higher the  
sampling frequency, the wider the range of frequencies  
that can be played back, and the higher the number of  
quantized bits, the more finely the sound level can be  
reproduced.

Video signal information  
Component video signal  
With the component video signal system, the video signal  
is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the PB  
and PR signals for the chrominance. Color can be  
reproduced more faithfully with this system because each  
of these signals is independent. The component signal is  
also called the “color difference signal” because the  
luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal.  
A monitor with component input jacks is required in order  
to use the component signal for output.  
Composite video signal  
With the composite video signal system, the video signal  
is composed of three basic elements of a video picture;  
color, brightness and synchronization data. A composite  
video jack on a video component transmits these three  
elements combined.  
S-video signal  
With the S-video signal system, the video signal normally  
transmitted using a pin cable is separated and transmitted  
as the Y signal for the luminance and the C signal for the  
chrominance through the S-video cable. Using the  
S VIDEO jack eliminates video signal transmission loss  
and allows recording and playback of even more beautiful  
images.
