5 Optimizing the speaker settings automatically (YPAO) The Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) function detects speaker connections, measures the distances from them to your listening position(s), and then automatically optimizes the speaker settings, such as volume balance and acoustic parameters, to suit your room. • During the measuring process, test tones are output at high volume. Ensure that the test tones do not frighten small children. Also, refrain from using this function at night when it may be a nuisance to others. • During the measuring process, you cannot adjust the volume. • During the measuring process, keep the room as quiet as possible. • Do not connect headphones. • Do not stand between the speakers and the YPAO microphone during the measurement process (about 3 minutes). • Move to the corner of the room or leave the room. Preparing for YPAO Turn on the subwoofer and set the volume to half. If the cross-over frequency is adjustable, set it to maximum.
