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.
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.
• 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.
y
• If an error occurs during the “Auto Setup” procedure and an
error or warning message appears in the GUI screen or in the
front panel display, see the “Auto Setup” section in
“TROUBLESHOOTING” on pages 147 and 148 for a complete
list of error and warning messages and proper remedies.
• The initial setting for each parameter is indicated in bold.
• If the volume level and the crossover frequency of your
subwoofer can be adjusted, set the volume level to about half
way (or slightly less) and set the crossover frequency to the
maximum.

It is recommended that you use a tripod (etc.) to affix the

when you are seated in your listening position. You can use a 6
mm diameter screw to fix the optimizer microphone to a tripod
(etc.).
