Yamaha RX-V557 User Manual

■

This unit is equipped with 6 additional input jacks (left and right FRONT, CENTER, left and right SURROUND and 
SUBWOOFER) for discrete multi-channel input from a multi-format player, external decoder, sound processor or pre-
amplifier.
Connect the output jacks on your multi-format player or external decoder to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks. Be sure to 
match the left and right outputs to the left and right input jacks for the front and surround channels.

• When you select MULTI CH INPUT as the input source, this unit automatically turns off the digital sound field processor, and you 

cannot select sound field programs.

• This unit does not redirect signals input to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks to accommodate for missing speakers. We recommend that 

you connect at least a 5.1-channel speaker system before using this feature.

• When headphones are used, only front left and right channels are output.
