Yamaha RX-797 Guia Do Utilizador

■ Adjusting the BALANCE control

Adjusts the sound output balance of the left and right 
speakers to compensate for sound imbalance caused by 
speaker locations or listening room conditions.

■ Using the CD DIRECT AMP button

Routes input signals from your CD player directly to the 
specially built-in amplifier for the CD player. As a result, 
the input signals bypass the INPUT selector and the 
BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls 
and then sent to the power amplifier, thus eliminating any 
alterations to the CD signals and creating the purest 
possible sound. The CD DIRECT AMP indicator lights up 
and the front panel display turns off after a few seconds.

■ Using the PURE DIRECT button

Routes input signals from your audio sources so that the 
input signals bypass the BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE and 
LOUDNESS controls, thus eliminating any alterations to 
the audio signals and creating the purest possible sound.

If both the CD DIRECT AMP and the PURE DIRECT buttons 
are turned on, only the CD DIRECT AMP button will function.

■ Adjusting the BASS and TREBLE 

Adjust the high and low frequency response.

BASS
Increases or decreases the low frequency response.

TREBLE
Increases or decreases the high frequency response.

■ Adjusting the LOUDNESS control

Retains a full tonal range at any volume level, thus 
compensating for the human ears’ loss of sensitivity to 
high and low-frequency ranges at a low volume level.

If the CD DIRECT AMP or the PURE DIRECT button is turned 
on with the LOUDNESS control set at a certain level, the input 
signals bypass the LOUDNESS control, resulting in a sudden 
increase in the sound output level. To prevent your ears or the 
speakers from being undesirably damaged, be sure to press the 
CD DIRECT AMP or the PURE DIRECT button after lowering 
the sound output level or after checking that the LOUDNESS 
control is properly set.
