YPAO Acoustic Customisation: 5 Tuning Factors

Zone 2 Power Amplifier Assignment

1) Speaker Connections

Checks for missing connections and

subwoofer phase control (here the right
surround speaker is not connected).

2) Speaker Distance

Measures speaker distances from

the listening point and corrects for
differences down to 5cm.

4) Speaker Frequency Response

Measures and optimises each speaker’s

frequency response using the
parametric equaliser.

5) Sound Pressure Level

Measures and aligns the

sound pressure levels of all
speakers.

Custom Installation Compatibility 

(RX-Z9, RX-V2500, RX-V1500, RX-V757, RX-V657

and RX-V557)

• Multi-Zone Capabilities

These receivers have a variety of features that allow

flexible custom installation for enjoying sound in two or

three rooms (zones) of your home. The RX-V2500 and

RX-V1500 provide audio output to Zones 2 and 3, and

the RX-V2500 offers video output (including S-Video)

for Zone 2 as well. The RX-Z9/RX-V757/RX-V657/

RX-V557 deliver audio output to Zone 2. Zone 2 power

amplifier assignability and speaker terminals mean that

Zone 2 can be fully independent with its own 2-channel

power, while you still enjoy 5.1-channel sound in the

main room (except RX-V557).

• Convenient Control

A switch for selecting Main Zone or Zone 2 power is

conveniently located on the front panel (except 

RX-V1500). All five receivers provide a remote control

for Zone 2, and the RX-V2500 also offers Zone 2 and 

3 volume control, mute and input selection. 

• Other Features

All six receivers include trigger output for automatic

powering of other components (RX-Z9/RX-V2500 has

two), remote control IR code input and output (RX-Z9/

RX-V2500 has two), and an RS-232C interface for using

a PC or touch-screen controller to configure the

receiver. They also provide speaker A, B or A+B selection.

On-Screen Display with GUI and Dedicated

Remote Control (RX-Z9)

The RX-Z9 and RX-V2500 have the best looking

and easiest to use on-screen display you’ve ever

seen. This is due in part to the high quality video

circuitry, which provides sharp, clear images. The

GUI (Graphical User Interface) includes extensive

yet easily understandable setup menus and has

been designed to make it easy to select and

adjust desired functions. 

And to further simplify operation, The RX-Z9

has provided a second remote control dedicated

to GUI use. The large round cursor control in the

centre makes it easy to navigate the on-screen

menus and enter desired commands. It also has

power, volume and mute buttons.

Each generation of Yamaha receivers brings an evolution

of our popular features while adding innovative

enhancements to improve the operating experience. This

is why even though our receivers are the most

technologically advanced, they remain remarkably easy to

use and enjoy. Although these receivers look like

formidable machines, you’ll soon appreciate just how

convenient and enjoyable they are to use.

YPAO Sets the Best Sound for

Your Room — Automatically!

(RX-Z9, RX-V2500, RX-V1500, 

RX-V757, RX-V657, YHT-840BG and DVX-S150)

YPAO automatically modifies the audio output to provide

precisely the best sound for the acoustics of the room.

The unit comes supplied with a high precision Optimiser

Microphone, which you simply place in the position where

you most frequently listen. Activating the YPAO function

causes test tones to be emitted from the speakers. These

tones are picked up by the Optimiser Microphone and

then analysed. Based on the results, a variety of audio

parameters are precisely calibrated to optimise the sound

at the listening position. You enjoy not only better sound,

but the BEST sound for each and every room.

The RX-V2500 has an improved system also adjusts

frequency response, and provides three programmed EQ

patterns, plus the ability to manually adjust parametric

EQ settings. Six YPAO settings can be held in memory and

recalled via two system memory buttons on the remote

control. 

3) Speaker Size

Checks speaker sizes (large or

small) and subwoofer
crossover frequency.
