8 Optimizing the speaker settings automatically (YPAO)
The YPAO microphone (supplied) detects the status of speaker
connections and the distance between these speakers and the
listening position, and adjusts the volume balance and the tone
settings automatically (YPAO: Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic
Optimizer).
• Be aware of the following when using YPAO.
- After completing the connection of a TV, speakers, and so on, start YPAO
measurement.
- The test tone is output at a high volume while measuring. Please take care that
the test tone does not frighten any small children. Also, avoid using YPAO at
night, so as to not make your neighbors troubled.
- Keep your room quiet while measuring.
- Do not connect headphones to the unit.
- YPAO can be performed by viewing the front display of the unit.
