SUBWOOFER 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. (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. The subwoofer volume cannot be adjusted from
this unit.
• Depending on the settings of "1 SPEAKER SET", "10A LFE
LEVEL" and "11 DTS LFE LEVEL" on the SET MENU,
some signals may not be output from the SUBWOOFER jack.

Connecting an External Decoder

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 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, changing
items 1A to 1F on the SET MENU is not affected.
