To adjust them individually, carry out the "Adjusting the speaker balance with test tones" procedure (page 15). Adjusting the Orientation of the Virtual Surround Speakers This unit employs the Yamaha Air Surround system that enables the surround sound field using six speaker units built in two satellite speakers. To create better acoustic field, please adjust the orientation of the virtual surround speakers suited for your listening environment. You can select from five presets for each satellite speaker (L and R). Note To create better acoustic field, you may need to change the arrangement of the satellite speakers or furniture. For example, the Air Surround system does not work well (or does not work at all) in the following situations. - The satellite speakers are placed inside the rack. - The satellite speakers are not placed perpendicular to the side walls. - There is an obstacle at the front (or diagonally in front) of satellite speakers. - A piece of furniture is placed at the reflection points (A, B). - There are no reflection faces (walls or windows). y • You cannot adjust the orientation of the virtual surround speakers while the DVS function is activated. To adjust it, press qVS to disable the DVS function. • When headphones are connected to the SILENT CINEMA jack on the unit, the adjustment is not available.
