PREPARATION  
SPEAKER SETUP  
Speakers to Be Used  
Speaker Placement  
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality  
with a 5-speaker system, using main speakers, rear speakers  
and a center speaker. If you use different brands of speakers  
(with different tonal qualities) in your system, the tone of a  
moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift  
smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the  
same manufacture to ensure even tonal quality.  
Refer to the following diagram when you place the  
speakers.  
Main speaker (R)  
Rear speaker (R)  
Subwoofer  
Main  
speaker (L)  
1.8 m  
The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus  
the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from  
your present stereo system. The rear speakers are used for  
the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker is for  
the center sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it  
is not practical to use a center speaker, you can do without  
it. Best results, however, are obtained with the full system.  
Center speaker  
Rear speaker (L)  
I Main speakers  
Place the right and left main speakers an equal distance  
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each  
speaker from each side of the TV monitor should be the  
same.  
The main speakers should be high-performance models and  
have enough power-handling capacity to accept the  
maximum output of your audio system. The other speakers  
do not have to be equal to the main speakers. For precise  
sound localization, however, it is ideal to use high-  
performance models that can reproduce sounds over the full  
range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.  
I Rear speakers  
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing  
slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) above the  
floor.  
I Use of a subwoofer expands your  
sound field  
I Center speaker  
It is also possible to further expand your system with the  
addition of a subwoofer. The use of a subwoofer is effective  
not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all  
channels, but also for reproducing the LFE (low frequency  
effect) channel with high fidelity when playing back a  
source encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS. The YAMAHA  
Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for  
natural and lively bass reproduction.  
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face  
of your TV monitor. Place the speaker as close to the  
monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the  
monitor and centrally between the main speakers.  
Note  
• If the center speaker is not used, the sound will be heard from the  
right and left main speakers. In that case, “CENTER SP” in the  
SET MENU is set to the NON position.  
I Subwoofer  
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low  
bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to  
place the subwoofer near the main speakers. Turn it slightly  
toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reflections.  
CAUTION  
Please use magnetically shielded speakers.  
Sometimes a video monitor may be adversely affected  
even when magnetically shielded speakers are used.  
Separate the speakers from the monitor if this happens.

CONNECTIONS  
Before Connecting Components  
CAUTION  
Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been  
completed.  
Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Some  
components require different connection methods and have different terminal names. Refer to the instructions for each  
component to be connected to this unit.  
When you connect other YAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or changer), connect  
it to the jacks with the same number labels as !, #, $ etc.  
Use RCA-type pin plug cables for connecting audio/video components with the exception described later.  
The input and output jacks for pin plugs can be distinguished as follows:  
V

This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital  
signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You can  
use the digital jacks to input PCM, Dolby Digital and DTS  
bitstreams. When you connect components to both the  
COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, priority is given to the  
input signals from the COAXIAL jack. All digital input  
jacks are acceptable for 96-kHz sampling digital signals.  
When you connect your recording component to both the analog  
and digital input and output jacks, the priority is given to the  
digital signal.

component to the AUDIO jacks.  
Notes  
y
• When you connect a recording component to this unit, keep its  
power on while using this unit. If the power is off, this unit may  
distort the sound from other components.  
• You can designate the input for each digital jack according to  
your component by using “3 I/O ASSIGN” in the SET MENU.  
HTR-5450 only  
All digital input jacks are acceptable for 96-kHz sampling digital  
signals.  
•
HTR-5450 only  
•
Since digital output and analog output (REC OUT) are  
independent of each other, the analog signal is output only to the  
analog jack, while the digital signal is output only to the digital  
jack.  
HTR-5440 only  
•
When making connections between the digital signal jacks, you  
should connect the components to the same-named analog audio  
signal jacks of this unit, because a digital signal cannot be  
recorded by a recording component connected to this unit.  
Connecting an External Decoder  
• All digital signal input jacks are applicable to sampling  
This unit is equipped with 6 additional input jacks (left and  
right MAIN, CENTER, left and right SURROUND and  
SUBWOOFER) for discrete multi-channel input from an  
external decoder, sound processor or pre-amplifier.  
frequencies of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.  
About the dust protection cap  
Pull out the cap from the optical jack before  
you connect the fiber optic cable. Do not  
discard the cap. When you are not using the  
optical jack, be sure to put the cap back in  
place. This cap protects the jack from dust.  
Connect the output jacks on your external decoder to the  
6CH INPUT jacks. Be sure to match the left and right  
outputs to the left and right input jacks for the main and  
surround channels.  
Note  
• The OPTICAL jacks on this unit conform to the EIA standard. If  
you use a fiber optic cable that does not conform to this standard,  
this unit may not function properly.  
Notes  
• When you select 6CH INPUT as the input source, this unit  
automatically turns off the digital sound field processor, and you  
cannot listen to DSP programs.  
• When you select 6CH INPUT as the input source, changing items  
of “1 SPEAKER SET” in the SET MENU is not affected (except  
“MAIN LVL”).  
I Connecting a CD player  
y
• The COAXIAL jack is available for a CD player which has  
coaxial digital output jack.  
• When you connect a CD player to both the analog and digital  
jacks, priority is given to the input signals from the digital jack.

I Subwoofer connection  
When using a subwoofer with built-in amplifier, including  
the YAMAHAActive Servo Processing Subwoofer System,  
connect the input jack of the subwoofer system to this jack.  
Low bass signals distributed from the main, center and/or  
rear channels are directed to this jack. (The cut-off  
frequency of this jack is 90 Hz.) The LFE (low-frequency  
effect) signals generated when Dolby Digital or DTS is  
decoded are also directed if they are assigned to this jack.  
Notes  
• Adjust the subwoofer volume according to the operation  
instructions for the subwoofer. (Fine adjustment is possible using  
this unit’s output level control of the effect speakers.)  
• Depending on the settings of “1 SPEAKER SET”, “LFE LEVEL  
(5 DOLBY D. SET)” and “6 DTS SET” in the SET MENU, some  
signals may not be output from the SUBWOOFER jack.

•
If the digital output data of the player has been processed  
in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS  
decoding even if you make a digital connection between  
this unit and the player.  
This unit comes with various input jacks. If your component  
is connected to more than one type of input jack, you can set  
the priority of the input signal.  
•
If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set  
the input mode to ANALOG, this unit reproduces the  
noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. When you want to  
play a DTS source, be sure to connect the source to a  
digital input jack and set the input mode to AUTO or  
DTS.  
Press INPUT MODE (or the input selector  
button that you have pressed to select the  
input source on the remote control) repeatedly  
until the desired input mode is shown on the  
display.  
•
•
If you switch the input mode to ANALOG while playing  
a source encoded with a DTS signal, this unit reproduces  
no sound.  
The following phenomena may occur if the input mode  
is set to AUTO when playing back a source encoded with  
DTS:

or  
– If you continue to play a source encoded with a DTS  
signal, this unit automatically switches to the “DTS-  
decoding” mode to prevent noise from being generated  
during subsequent operation. (The “t” indicator  
lights up on the display.) The “t” indicator may flash  
immediately after playback of a source encoded with a  
DTS signal has finished. Only a source encoded with a  
DTS signal can be played back while this indicator is  
flashing. (The indicator will flash for less than a minute.)  
If you want to play a normal PCM source soon, set the  
input mode back to AUTO.  
– The “t” indicator may flash when a search or skip  
operation is performed. If this status continues for a  
certain length of time, the unit will automatically switch  
from the “DTS-decoding” mode to PCM digital signal  
input mode and the “t” indicator will go out.

order:  
1) Dolby Digital or DTS signal  
2) Digital (PCM) signal  
3) Analog signal  
In this mode, only the digital input  
signal encoded with DTS is selected  
even if another signal is input at the

Notes  
• If digital signals are input from both the COAXIAL and  
OPTICAL jacks, the digital signal from the COAXIAL jack is  
selected.  
• When AUTO is selected, this unit automatically determines the  
type of signal. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal,  
the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and  
reproduces 5.1 channel source.  
• The sound output may be interrupted for some LD players and  
DVD players in the following situation:  
When the input mode has been set to AUTO and a search is  
performed while playing the source encoded with a Dolby Digital  
or DTS signal, the sound may delay for a moment when playback  
is resumed.  
• Depending on the LD player, playback may not be made when  
playing an LD that is not digitally recorded with the input mode  
set to AUTO. If this happens, set the input mode to ANALOG.

Automatic Preset Tuning (for FM  
stations only)  
You can make use of the automatic preset tuning function  
for FM stations only. This function enables the unit to  
automatically tune in with strong signals and to sequentially  
store up to 40 FM stations (5 groups x 8 stations).  
You can select the preset number from which the unit will  
store FM stations and/or begin tuning toward lower  
frequencies. Before automatic preset tuning begins (after  
pressing MEMORY in step 3),  
1. Press A/B/C/D/E and PRESET/TUNING l or h to  
select the preset number with which the first station will  
be stored. The automatic preset tuning will stop when  
stations have all been stored up to E8.  
2. Press PRESET/TUNING (EDIT) to turn “ z ” off and  
then press PRESET/TUNING l to begin tuning toward  
lower frequencies.

Use this feature to adjust the delay of the center channel

the same distance from the listening position as the left and  
right main speakers. However, in most home situations, the  
center speaker is placed in line with the main speakers. By  
delaying the sound from the center speaker, the apparent  
distance from the center speaker to the listening position can  
be adjusted to make it seem the same as the distance  
between the left and right main speakers to the listening  
position. Adjusting the delay time for the center speaker is  
especially important for giving depth to the dialog.

the later the sound effect is generated. The delay time can be  
individually adjusted to all DSP programs.  
Notes  
• If “CENTER SP” in the SET MENU is set to the NON position,  
the sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted.  
This is because the center channel sound is automatically output  
from the right and left main speakers.  
• Once the sound output level has been adjusted, the level will be  
the same for all DSP programs.

• Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with some  
sources.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM  
I MOVIE THEATER 1 and 2  
Most commercially available movie software has 4-channel (left, center, right and surround) sound information encoded by  
Dolby Surround matrix processing and stored on the left and right tracks. These signals are processed by the Dolby Pro Logic  
decoder. The MOVIE THEATER programs are designed to recreate the spaciousness and delicate nuances of sound that tend  
to be lost in the encoding and decoding processes.  
The 6-channel soundtracks found on 70-mm film produce precise sound field localization and rich, deep sound without using  
matrix processing. This unit’s MOVIE THEATER 70 mm programs provide the same quality of sound and sound localization  
that 6-channel soundtracks do.  
When the input source is analog, PCM or encoded with Dolby Digital in 2-channel

GLOSSARY  
I Dolby Surround  
I LFE 0.1 channel  
Dolby Surround uses a four analog channel recording  
system to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects:  
two left and right main channels (stereo), a center channel  
for dialog (monaural), and a rear channel for special sound  
effects (monaural). The rear channel reproduces sound  
within a narrow frequency range.  
This channel is for the reproduction of low bass signals. The  
frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz. This  
channel is counted as 0.1 because it only enforces a low  
frequency range compared to the full-range reproduced by  
the other 5 channels in a Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel  
systems.  
Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes  
and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as  
well. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit  
employs a digital signal processing system that  
automatically stabilizes the volume on each channel to  
enhance moving sound effects and directionality.  
I CINEMA DSP  
D I G I T A L  
Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were originally  
designed for use in movie theaters, their effect is best felt in  
a theater having many speakers and designed for acoustic  
effects. Since home conditions, such as room size, wall  
material, number of speakers, and so on, can differ so  
widely, it’s inevitable that there are differences in the sound  
heard as well. Based on a wealth of actually measured data,  
YAMAHA CINEMA DSP uses YAMAHA original sound  
field technology to combine Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital  
and DTS systems to provide the visual and audio experience  
of movie theater in the listening room of your own home.  
I Dolby Digital  
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives  
you completely independent multi-channel audio. With  
three front channels (left, center and right), and two rear  
stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides five full-range  
audio channels. With an additional channel especially for  
bass effects, called LFE (low frequency effect), the system  
has a total of 5.1 channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel).  
Using two-channel stereo for the rear speakers, more  
accurate moving sound effects and surround sound  
environment are possible than with Dolby Surround. The  
wide dynamic range (from maximum to minimum volume)  
reproduced by the five full-range channels and the precise  
sound orientation generated using digital sound processing  
provide listeners with previously unheard of excitement and  
realism.  
I SILENT CINEMA  
YAMAHA has developed a natural, realistic sound effect  
DSP algorithm for headphones.  
Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound  
field so that accurate representations of all the sound field  
programs can be enjoyed on headphones.  
I Virtual CINEMA DSP  
YAMAHA has developed a virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm  
that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field surround effects  
even without any rear speakers by using virtual rear  
speakers.  
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up to  
a 5.1-channel configuration can be freely selected for your  
enjoyment.  
It is even possible to enjoy virtual CINEMA DSP in a  
minimum two-speaker system that does not include a center  
speaker.  
I DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
Digital Surround  
DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog  
soundtracks of movies with a six-channel digital sound  
track, and is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie  
theaters around the world. Digital Theater Systems Inc. has  
developed a home theater system so that you can enjoy the  
depth of sound and natural spatial representation of DTS  
digital surround in your home. This system is practically  
distortion-free, clear 6-channel sound (technically, a left,  
right and center channels, two rear channels, plus an LFE  
0.1 channel as a subwoofer, for a total of 5.1 channels).

GLOSSARY  
HTR-5450 only  
I S VIDEO signal  
With S VIDEO signal system, the video signal normally  
transmitted using a pin cable is separated and transmitted as  
the Y signal for the luminance and the C signal for the  
chrominance through the S VIDEO cable. Using the S  
VIDEO jack eliminates video signal transmission loss and  
allows recording and playback of even more beautiful  
images.  
I PCM (Linear PCM)  
Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog audio  
signal is digitized, recorded and transmitted without using  
any compression. This is used as a method of recording CDs  
and DVD audio. The PCM system uses a technique for  
sampling the size of the analog signal per very small unit of  
time. Standing for “pulse code modulation”, the analog  
signal is encoded as pulses and then modulated for  
recording.  
I Sampling frequency and number of  
HTR-5450 only  
quantized bits  
When digitizing an analog audio signal, the number of times  
the signal is sampled per second is called the sampling  
frequency, while the degree of fineness when converting the  
sound level into a numeric value is called the number of  
quantized bits.  
The range of rates that can be played back is determined  
based on the sampling rate, while the dynamic range  
representing the sound level difference is determined by the  
number of quantized bits. In principle, the higher the  
sampling frequency, the wider the range of frequencies that  
can be played back, and the higher the number of quantized  
bits, the more finely the sound level can be reproduced.  
I I/O ASSIGN (SET MENU)  
Although component is normally connected according to  
jack names shown on the rear panel, this unit includes a  
function that assigns jacks according to the component  
being connected. If the component being used differs from  
the component name shown for this unit’s digital jacks, it is  
possible to assign jacks according to the component being  
connected. This makes it possible to change the jack  
assignment and effectively connect more component.
