    Notes on the audio jacks
    • You cannot simultaneously use both IN and OUT jacks when
    the jack names are the same as each other. For example, the
    signal input from the VCR IN jack does not output from the
    VCR OUT jack.
    • CinemaStation’s digital and analog signal circuits are
    independent of each other, so analog input signals can only
    output from analog output jacks and digital input signals can
    only output from digital output jacks.
    Notes on recording and playing video
    • Perform a test recording before recording.
    • Do not press ON SCREEN during recording a DVD video. If
    you press ON SCREEN, the On Screen Menu appears, and
    both the video and On Screen Menu will be recorded.
    • It is not possible to record DSP effects.
    • When you turn off the connected VCR power, playback sound
    may become distorted and the volume reduced. In this case,
    turn on the VCR power.
    • Even if you adjust the audio volume, audio quality, or change
    the DSP Program during a video recording, it has no effect on
    the recorded sound.
    • Video recordings that you make cannot be used for any
    purpose other than private enjoyment without the consent of
    the copyright holder.
    • You cannot record from a copy protected DVD disc.
    Connect a game console to a digital input
    If your game console has a digital output jack (optical), it can be
    connected to CinemaStation’s OPTICAL IN jack.
    See page 50, “Connecting Audio Equipment” to learn how
    to connect an optical jack.
    Video output connects to CinemaStation’s VIDEO IN jack.
    Connect a TV to an audio input
    Enjoy TV sound with CinemaStation by connecting the TV
    audio output jack to an AUDIO IN jack.
    Press VIDEO on the Remote Control to input TV sound.

    Advice
    Advice
    • When you assign the OPTICAL IN jack as VIDEO and equipment is
    connected to the VIDEO IN jacks, the OPTICAL IN jack has priority
    over the VIDEO IN jacks if the input mode is set to AUTO.
    • CinemaStation’s digital and analog signal circuits are
    independent of each other, so analog input signals can only
    output from analog output jacks and digital input signals can
    only output from digital output jacks.
    • CinemaStation’s optical digital jack is designed based on EIA
    standards. If you use an optical cable that does not meet EIA
    standards, it may not function properly. • The digital jacks are compatible with PCM, Dolby Digital and
    DTS signals.
    • The OPTICAL IN jack is compatible with a digital signal that
    has a 96 kHz or less sampling frequency.
    • You can use “* Input Assign” in the SET MENU to assign
    VIDEO or VCR to the OPTICAL IN jack. The default setting
    is VIDEO.
    Set to VIDEO (default setting)
    Press VIDEO on the Remote Control to input a signal from CD
    recorder or MD recorder.
    Set to VCR
    Press VCR on the Remote Control to input a signal from CD

    Creating the Best Listening Space
    Creating the Best Listening Space
    Placing the Speakers (NX-P120)
    Make sure the top of the television is level. If the top of the
    television is not level, place the Center Speaker inside the
    TV rack or directly on the floor. In any case, make sure it is
    placed on a level surface.
    When placing on top of the television, use the supplied
    fastener (two pieces) as shown in the picture on the left,
    between the bottom of the Center Speaker and top of the
    television to fasten.
    • Do not place on a television with top narrower than the bottom of the
    speaker. You may get injured if the speaker falls over.
    • Do not place if the top of the television is slanting. You may get
    injured if the speaker falls over.
    • After peeling off the fastener seal, do not touch the bonding surface. If
    you do, the bonding surface weakens, which later may cause the
    speaker to fall over.
    • Before attaching the fastener to the television, wipe the TV top clean.
    If the surface is dirty or wet tape will lose bonding strength, which
    later may cause the speaker to fall over.
    Placing the Center Speaker
    Placing the Subwoofer
    Place the Subwoofer on a level hard floor.
    When placing, use non-skid pads on the bottom of the
    Subwoofer in the four corners as shown in the picture. This
    will prevent the Subwoofer from sliding when it vibrates.
    Also, increasing stability prevents degradation of sound. To get the most out of the sound field effects you need to place the speakers
    in the best positions. To guard against poor acoustics like sound blur make
    sure the speakers are stable. Also read page 7, Preparing the Speakers.

    Creating the Best Listening Space
    • One speaker weighs about 1.1 kg (2.43 lb). Make sure you fasten screws only into a solid wall or pillar. Do not attach to a wall
    that is made of plaster, decorative veneer sheeting or other material that peels easily. If the screws come off and a speaker falls,
    somebody may get injured.
    • Do not attach the speakers using nails or two-sided tape. Vibration during use may cause the nails to loosen, tape to peel off and
    speakers to fall, resulting in injury.
    • CinemaStation may fall over if your feet or hands get caught in the speaker cable. Make sure the cables are fixed in place.
    • After attaching everything, check the overall safety of your installation.
    YAMAHA will bear no responsibility for accidents caused by improperly placed equipment or faulty installation methods.
    Placing the Front and Surround Speakers
    Attach to the wall using the two holes on the back of the Front and
    Surround Speakers.
    Attach 2 screws (3.5 to 4 mm (1/8 to 5/32) dia.,
    commercially available) to each place you want
    to hang a Front or Surround Speaker.
    Hang the speakers on the screws using the
    holes in the back of each speaker.
    • Make sure that the tapping screw enters the narrow part of the hole
    and the speaker is fixed securely in place.
    As shown in the picture, attach the non-skid pads on the bottoms
    of the Front and Surround Speakers in the four corners. This
    stabilizes the speakers to prevent sliding.
    * Place on a stable, flat surface. You can place the Front Speakers and Surround Speakers
    on the floor or a rack, or attach them to a wall. You can also
    mount them on commercially available speaker stands.

    Use the supplied screw to attach the mounting
    bracket to the bottom of the speaker.
    The jutting part of the bracket enters the groove at the
    speaker base.
    Use the bracket holes (60 mm (2
    3/8) spacing) to
    fasten the mounting bracket to the speaker
    stand.
    Use the screws (4 mm (

    • When attaching to the optional SPS-80 Speaker Stands, you do not
    need to attach the supplied mounting brackets.

    With the SPS-80 Speaker Stands, you can set the Front Speakers
    and Surround Speakers on the floor. (2 stands/set)

    Using Commercially Available Speakers or Cables
    • Use speakers of the same manufacturer and quality, if possible. If the
    quality of each speaker differs, the voice of a moving person may
    become unnatural.
    Advice
    You can use commercially available speakers instead of
    the supplied Center Speaker, Front Speakers, Surround
    Speakers, or Subwoofer. You can also use commercially
    available speaker cables instead of the supplied cables.
    • Use a speaker with 6-ohm impedance or more. If a speaker
    with less than 6-ohm impedance is used, the protective circuit
    may trip or the speaker may malfunction.
    • Use magnetically shielded speakers. If these speakers still
    create interference with the monitor, place the speakers away
    from the monitor.
    • Make sure the speaker cable you use is the same thickness as
    the supplied cable. * SPS-80 stands may not be available in certain regions.
