Frequently asked questions
The following section covers popular functions and frequently asked questions about the 
sound bar.
• AIR SURROUND XTREME 
Enjoy 7.1 channel surround sound, which creates a wide and deep soundstage, as 
if speakers are set not only on the left and right, but also behind of the listener 
(p.9).
• Sophisticated sound technology
Enjoy powerful bass sound for the surround playback with the Yamaha original 
bass boost technology.
• Bluetooth® connection    
(YAS-103 only)
Content on a Bluetooth compatible smartphone, tablet, or computer can be played 
back easily (p.10).
You can enjoy deep and fresh sound as close to the original by the Compressed 
Music Enhancer. Also, you can operate the sound bar easily using the dedicated 
controlling application “HOME THEATER CONTROLLER.”
• TV’s remote control learning function
Operate the sound bar with the TV’s remote control (p.12).
• TV Remote Repeater function
Enables the TV’s remote signal to path through the sound bar. If the installed

function provides a convenient solution (p.14).
• Clear  voice
Makes voice sound (such as dialogues and narrations) clear (p.9).

Q1
Can I operate the sound bar using the remote control of the TV? 
Switching between the remote controls of the TV and sound bar is 
inconvenient.

Yes. You can control the sound bar using your TV’s remote control by the 
“TV’s remote control learning” function (p.12).
This function is available only for the IR (infrared) remote control. Check your 
TV’s remote control type.

The TV’s remote control does not work after the sound bar is installed in 
front of the TV.

Repeater” function (p.14).

clearer using the “clear voice” function (p.9).
Q4
How do I connect the sound bar if the TV does not have an optical 
output?
A4
If the TV has analog audio outputs (red and white terminals), connect to 
ANALOG input of the sound bar with an RCA stereo cable (p.7). In this case, 
select ANALOG for the input source of the sound bar (p.8).
Q5
Can I set the sound bar to turn off automatically when I am not using it?
