Yamaha Speaker Stand SPS-200 (Option)
With the SPS-200 Speaker Stands, you can set the Front
Speakers and Surround Speakers on the floor. (2 stands/set)
SPS-200
Using Commercially Available Speakers or Cables
• Use speakers of the same manufacturer and quality, if possible. If thequality 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-200 stands may not be available in certain regions.

Adjusting the Speaker Volume Level
The default settings of the Speakers are suitable for most conditions.
However, depending on room conditions or listening position, you may
need to adjust the Speaker volume level, especially when changing
speaker or furniture position.
This adjustment is important because it brings out the maximum effect of
the DSP Program, and faithfully reproduces the acoustic personalities of
Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Pro Logic 
II, Dolby Digital and DTS.
Even after performing the test tone, you may still like to adjust the
speaker volume level for some sources. In this case see page 61,
“ Adjusting the Speaker Volume Level During Playback ”.
• You cannot adjust the volume level while connected to headphones. To adjust, disconnect
your headphones.
Adjust the volume so that it is the same for each speaker
from your listening position.
• To adjust the sound, use the Remote Control from your listeningposition.
Press AMP.
Press TEST.

• If you raise the volume level of the Center and Surround L/R Speakers to\
 + 10 dB and this is still less than the Front Speakers,
set the “* F. Level” in the SET MENU to -10 dB and lower the volume level of the Front Speakers by abou\
t 1/3. If you change
the volume level of the Front Speakers, adjust the volume level of the C\
enter and Surround L/R Speakers once again.
Adjust the overall sound using the VOLUME +/-
so that you can hear the test tone.
The picture on the left shows the test tone order: LEFT
(Front L Speaker)  → CENTER (Center Speaker)  →
RIGHT (Front R Speaker)  → R SUR. (Surround R
Speaker)  → L SUR. (Surround L Speaker)  →
SUBWOOFER (Subwoofer). Each speaker outputs sound
for about 2 seconds. The speaker currently outputting a
test tone appears in the CinemaStation Display.
While a test tone is outputting from the speaker
you want to adjust, press  q or  w and tune it to
the same volume level as the Front Speakers.
Only the speaker currently being adjusted produces a test
tone.
• While in test tone mode you cannot adjust the volume level of the
Front Speakers which serve as the standard. If you need to adjust the
volume level of the Front Speakers, exit the test tone mode and press
VOLUME +/-.
When adjustment is finished, press TEST.
The test tone stops.
Note
• If “* CENTER” in the SET MENU is set to “NON”, the Center Sp\
eaker signal is distributed to the Front L/R Speakers at thesame volume level and output. In this case, you cannot adjust the audio \
output level of the Center Speaker.
• If “* SUR”. in the SET MENU is set to “NON”, you cannot adjust the volume level of the S\
urround L/R Speakers. The test tone skips the Surround L/R Speakers and continues its cycle.
• If “* BASS” in the SET MENU is set to “FRONT”, the test tone\
 skips the Subwoofer and continues its cycle.
• The test tone for Subwoofer is different from the others, but this is not a defect.

Adjusting the Speaker Volume Level During Playback
• The volume level adjustment range is +10 dB to -10 dB.
• You cannot adjust the Left and Right Surround Speakers individually. The same adjustment level will be applied to both.If the level adjusted during the sound test was different for Left and Right and one speaker was then tuned to a maximum of\
 +10
dB or a minimum of -10 dB, the value cannot be adjusted any further up o\
r down.
• We recommend that you first adjust the speaker balance with a test tone. \
See page 59,  “Adjusting the Speaker Balance
with a Test Tone ”.
• If you change the speaker volume level with the SW, CENTER or SURR buttons, the levels you adjust with the test tone also change.
