The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source  
as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this  
unit itself is turned off. This state is called the standby  
mode. In this state, this unit is designed to consume a  
very small quantity of power.  
CAUTION  
Use of controls or adjustments or performance  
of procedures other than those specified herein  
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.  
ATTENTION  
L’appareil n’est pas isolé de la source d’alimentation aussi  
longtemps qu’il reste branché sur une prise murale,  
même lorsqu’il est éteint. Il est alors dit en mode «Veille».  
Dans ce mode, l’appareil consomme très peu de courant.  
L’emploi de commandes, de réglages ou un  
choix de procédures différents des  
spécifications de cette brochure peut entraîner  
une exposition à d’éventuelles radiations  
pouvant être dangereses.  
Das Gerät ist nicht vom Netz getrennt, solange der  
Netzstecker noch mit der Wandsteckdose verbunden  
ist, selbst wenn das Gerät ausgeschaltet wurde. Dieser  
Betriebszustand wird als Bereitschaftsmodus bezeichnet.  
In diesem Zustand nimmt das Gerät eine sehr geringe  
Menge Strom auf.  
ACHTUNG  
Die Verwendung von Bedienungselementen  
oder Einstellungen oder die Durchführung von  
Bedienungsvorgängen, die nicht in dieser  
Anleitung aufgeführt sind, kann zu einem  
Kontakt mit gefährlichen Laserstrahlen führen.  
Enheten är inte urkopplad från nätet så länge som den är  
ansluten till vägguttaget även om enheten i sig självt är  
avstängd. Detta kallas för beredskapsläge och i detta  
tillstånd konsumerar apparaten minimalt med ström.  
OBSERVERA  
Användning av kontroller och justeringar eller  
genomförande av procedurer andra än de som  
specificeras i denna bok kan resultera i att du  
utsätter dig för farlig strålning.  
L’unità non è scollegata dall’impianto elettrico di casa  
sintanto che rimane collegata ad una presa di corrente  
anche se è spenta. Questo modo viene chiamato “modo  
di attesa”. In esso, l’unità consuma una quantità molto  
bassa di energia per mantenere in memoria le  
impostazioni da voi fatte.  
ATTENZIONE  
Uso di controlli o regolazioni o procedure non  
specificamente descritte può causare  
l’esposizione a radiazioni di livello pericoloso.  
Aunque el propio aparato se encuentre apagado, éste no  
se desconectará de la fuente de CA siempre que se  
mantenga enchufado a la toma de corriente. Este estado  
recibe el nombre de “modo de espera”. En este estado,  
este aparato ha sido diseñado para consumir una  
cantidad muy pequeña de energía.  
PRECAUCIÓN  
El uso de los controles o los procedimientos de  
ajuste o utilización diferentes de los  
especificados en este manual pueden causar  
una exposición peligrosa a la radiación.  
VOORZICHTIG  
De stroomtoevoer naar het toestel is niet afgesloten  
zolang de stekker nog in het stopcontact zit, zelfs niet als  
het toestel zelf uitgeschakeld is. Deze toestand wordt  
“standby” (waak- of paraatstand) genoemd. Het toestel  
is ontworpen om in deze toestand.  
Gebruik van bedieningsorganen of instellingen,  
of uitvoeren van handelingen anders dan staan  
beschreven in deze handleiding kunnen leiden  
tot blootstelling aan gevaarlijke stralen.  
ПРЕДУПРЕЖДЕНИЕ  
Данное устройство не отсоединено от  
источника переменного напряжения до тех  
пор, пока оно подключено к настенной  
розетке, даже если само данное устройство  
выключено. Это состояние называется  
режимом готовности. В этом состоянии данное  
устройство потребляет очень малое  
количество электроэнергии.  
Использование органов управления или  
настроек или выполнение процедур, отличных  
от описанных в данном руководстве, могут  
привести к опасному облучению.

If your TV (or other equipment) has an S-video  
(S1) input, you can use the S-video output on  
this player instead of the standard (composite)  
output for a better quality picture.  
Use an S-video cable (not supplied) to  
connect the S-VIDEO OUT to an S-video  
input on your TV (or monitor or AV  
receiver).  
Line up the small triangle above the jack with

FAQ

Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for  
your player. The region number should be  
printed on the disc; check it against the  
region number of the player (which you can  
regions on page 37.  
If the region number is OK, it may be that  
the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc  
page 35.  
• Why won’t the disc I loaded play?  
First check that you loaded the disc the  
right way up (label side up), and that it’s  
clean and undamaged. See Taking care of  
your player and discs on page 35 for  
information on cleaning discs.  
If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s  
probably an incompatible format or disc  
type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM. See  
Disc/content format playback compatibility  
on page 5 for more on disc compatibility.  
• I have a widescreen TV so why are there  
black bars at the top and bottom of the  
screen when I play some discs?  
Some movie formats are such that even  
when played on a widescreen TV, black  
bars are necessary at the top and bottom of  
the screen. This is not a malfunction.  
• I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the player  
to show widescreen DVDs in pan & scan  
format, so why do I still get black bars top  
and bottom with some discs?  
Some discs override the display  
preferences of the player, so even if you  
have 4:3 (Pan & Scan) selected, those  
discs will still be shown in letter box format.  
This is not a malfunction.

• Virtual Surround doesn’t work with DTS,

When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low  
volume, it’s easy to lose the quieter sounds  
completely—including some of the dialog.  
Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic Range  
Control) to on can help by bringing up the  
quieter sounds, while controlling loud peaks.  
• 96kHz linear PCM audio is automatically  
downsampled to 48kHz if Virtual Surround  
is switched on.  
• If the player is outputting Dolby Digital,  
DTS or MPEG bitstream audio (in other  
words, no conversion to PCM), Virtual  
Surround has no effect on the audio from  
the digital output. See Digital Audio Out  
settings on page 30 for how to set up the  
digital output formats.  
How much of a difference you hear depends on  
the material you’re listening to. If the material  
doesn’t have wide variations in volume, you  
may not notice much change.  
Note  
• How good the surround effect is varies with  
the disc.  
• Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby

Cleaning discs  
Taking care of your player and  
discs  
Fingerprints and dust on discs can affect  
playback performance. Clean using a soft, dry  
cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to  
the outside edge as shown below.  
General  
Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole  
and edge.  
When you're not using a disc, return it to its  
case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in  
excessively cold, humid, or hot environments  
(including under direct sunlight).  
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a  
commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to  
clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use  
benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents,  
including products designed for cleaning vinyl  
records.  
Don't glue paper or put stickers on to discs. Do  
not use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-  
tipped writing instrument to write on the disc.  
Cleaning the unit’s exterior  
Don’t use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as  
these can cause the disc to warp slightly  
during playback causing distortion in the  
picture and/or sound.  
Unplug the unit before cleaning.  
Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the  
surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth  
dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or  
six times with water and wrung out well, then  
wipe again with a dry cloth.  
Damaged and shaped discs  
Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or  
otherwise damaged discs as they may damage  
the player.  
Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never  
use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or  
other chemicals on or near this unit.  
If you use a chemical-impregnated cleaning  
cloth, read the instructions carefully before  
use. These cloths may leave smear marks on  
half-mirror finish surfaces; if this happens,  
finish with a dry cloth.  
This player is designed to be used only with  
conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use  
shaped discs. YAMAHA disclaims all liability  
arising in connection with the use of shaped  
discs.

Please note that some movie aspect ratios are  
wider than 16:9, so even though you have a  
widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a  
‘letter box’ style with black bars at the top and  
bottom of the screen.  
Cleaning the pickup lens  
The DVD player’s lens should not become dirty  
in normal use, but if for some reason it should  
malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your  
nearest YAMAHA authorized service center.  
We do not recommend using commercially  
available lens cleaners for CD players.  
Standard TV users  
If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen  
setting (page 31) of this player should be set to  
4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan),  
depending on which you prefer.  
Condensation  
Condensation may form inside the player if it is  
brought into a warm room from outside, or if  
the temperature of the room rises quickly.  
Although the condensation won’t damage the  
player, it may temporarily impair its  
performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer  
temperature for about an hour before  
switching on.  
Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are  
shown with black bars top and bottom.  
Moving the player  
Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan), widescreen discs are  
shown with the left and right sides cropped.  
Although the picture looks larger, you don’t  
actually see the whole picture.  
If you need to move the player, first press  
STANDBY/ON on the front panel to turn the  
player off. Wait for -OFF- to disappear from the  
display, then unplug the power cable. Never lift  
or move the unit during playback—discs rotate  
at a high speed and may be damaged.  
DVD-Video discs come in several different  
screen aspect ratios, ranging from TV  
programs, which are generally 4:3, to  
CinemaScope widescreen movies, with an  
aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.  
Please note that many widescreen discs  
override the player’s settings so that the disc is  
shown in letter box format regardless of the  
setting.  
Televisions, too, come in different aspect  
ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.  
Note  
• Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a  
standard 4:3 TV, or either of the 4:3 settings  
with a widescreen TV, will result in a  
distorted picture.  
Widescreen TV users  
If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen  
setting (page 31) of this player should be set to  
16:9 (Wide).  
When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format,  
you can use the TV controls to select how the  
picture is presented. Your TV may offer various  
zoom and stretch options; see the instructions  
that came with your TV for details.

Thank you for selecting this YAMAHA NS-P110/NS-P116 Speaker Package.  
CAUTION: Read this before operating your unit.  
To assure the finest performance, please read this manual  
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.  
Do not plug in this unit to a wall outlet until all connections are  
completed.  
Install the speakers in a cool, dry, clean place – away from  
windows, heat sources, sources of excessive vibration, dust,  
moisture and cold. Avoid sources of humming (transformers,  
motors). To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose the  
speakers to rain or water.  
The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on  
the rear panel. Using this unit with a higher voltage than  
specified is dangerous and may cause fire, damage to this unit,  
and/or personal injury. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for  
any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other  
than specified.  
To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do not  
place the speakers where they will be exposed to direct sunlight  
or excessive humidity.  
To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug  
when there is an electric storm.  
Avoid installing the speakers where foreign objects may fall onto  
them and/or where they may be exposed to liquid dripping or  
splashing.  
Super-bass frequencies reproduced by this unit may cause a  
turntable to generate a howling sound. In such a case, move this  
unit away from the turntable.  
Do not place the following objects on top of the speakers:  
This unit may be damaged if certain sounds are continuously  
outputted at high volume level. For example, if 20 Hz–50 Hz sine  
waves from a test disc, bass sounds from electronic instruments,  
etc. are continuously outputted, or when the stylus of a turntable  
touches the surface of a disc, reduce the volume level to prevent  
this unit from being damaged.  
Other components, as they might cause damage and/or  
discoloration on the surface of the speakers.  
Burning objects (i.e. candles), as they might cause fire,  
damage to the speakers and/or personal injury.  
Containers with liquid in them, as they might cause electric  
shock to the user and/or damage to the speakers.  
If you hear distorted noise (i.e. unnatural, intermittent “rapping” or  
“hammering” sounds) coming from this unit, reduce the volume  
level. Extremely loud playing of a movie soundtrack’s low  
frequency, bass-heavy sounds or similarly loud popular music  
passages can damage this speaker system.  
Do not place the speakers where they are liable to be knocked  
over or struck by falling objects. Stable placement will also  
ensure better sound performance.  
Placing the speakers on the same shelf or rack as the turntable  
can result in feedback.  
Vibration generated by super-bass frequencies may distort  
images on a TV. In such a case, move this unit away from the TV  
set.  
Secure placement or installation is the owner’s responsibility.  
YAMAHA shall not be liable for any accident caused by improper  
placement or installation of speakers.  
When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, grasp  
the plug; do not pull the cord.  
Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your  
amplifier to a lower setting. Never allow your amplifier to be  
driven into “clipping”. Otherwise the speakers may be damaged.  
When not planning to use this unit for a long period (i.e. vacation,  
etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.  
When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher than  
the nominal input power of the speakers, care should be taken  
never to exceed the speakers’ maximum input.

SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS  
Before making connections, place all speakers in their respective positions. The positioning of the speakers is important  
because it controls the whole sound quality of this system.  
Place the speakers depending on your listening position by following the instructions below.  
Speaker configuration  
Placing speakers  
Front speakers: On both sides of and at approximately  
the same height as the TV set.  
<NS-P110>  
This speaker package employs a 6 speaker configuration: 2  
front speakers, 2 rear speakers, a center speaker and a  
subwoofer.  
Rear speakers:  
Behind your listening position, facing  
slightly inward. About 1.8 m (approx. 6  
feet) from the floor.  
The front speakers emit main source sound. The rear  
speakers emit surround sounds, and the center speaker  
emits center sounds (dialog etc.). The subwoofer emits  
reinforcing low frequencies on your audio system.  
Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers.  
Rear center speaker (for NS-P116):  
Precisely between the rear speakers.  
<NS-P116>  
Subwoofer:  
The position of the subwoofer is not so  
critical because low bass tones are not  
highly directional.  
This speaker package employs a 7 speaker configuration: 2  
front speakers, 2 rear speakers, a center speaker, a rear  
center speaker and a subwoofer.  
Refer to “Placing the subwoofer” on  
page 4 for a recommended positioning  
of the subwoofer.  
The front speakers emit main source sound. The rear and  
rear center speakers emit surround sounds, and the center  
speaker emits center sounds (dialog etc.). The subwoofer  
emits reinforcing low frequencies on your audio system.

Placing the subwoofer  
It is recommended to place the subwoofer on the outside of  
either the right or the left front speaker. (See fig. Å .) The  
placement shown in fig. ı is also possible, however, if the  
subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the  
bass effect may die because the sound from it and the  
sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. To  
prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer system at  
an angle as shown in fig. Å.  
Å
ı
Note  
There may be a case that you cannot obtain enough super-  
bass sounds from the subwoofer when listening in the  
center of the room. This is because “standing waves” have  
been developed between two parallel walls and they cancel  
the bass sounds.  
(
: Subwoofer,  
: Front speaker)  
In such a case, face the subwoofer obliquely to the wall. It  
also may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces by  
placing bookshelves etc. along the walls.  
Use the nonskid pads  
Put the provided nonskid pads at the four corners on the  
bottom of the subwoofer to prevent the subwoofer from  
moving by vibrations etc.  
Placing the center speaker  
You can place the speaker on top of the TV if the top is flat,  
on the floor under the TV, or inside the TV rack . Be sure to  
place the speaker in a stable position.  
When placing the speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the  
speaker from falling, attach the provided fasteners at two  
points on the bottom of the speaker and on the top of the  
TV.  
Screen  
Notes  
Do not place the speaker on top of a TV whose area is  
smaller than the bottom of the speaker. If placed, the  
speaker may fall and cause injury.  
Do not place the speaker on top of a TV if the top is  
inclined.  
Fastener  
Do not touch the adhesive surface after peeling off  
the seal as this will weaken its adhesive strength.  
Thoroughly wipe clean the surface where the fastener  
is to be applied. Note that adhesive strength is  
weakened if the surface is dirty, oily or wet and that  
this may cause the center speaker to fall.  
Peel off  
the seal

Automatic power-switching function  
If the source being played is stopped and the input signal is  
cut off for 7 to 8 minutes, the subwoofer automatically  
switches to the standby mode. (When the subwoofer  
switches to the standby mode by the automatic power-  
switching function, the power indicator lights up in red.)  
When you play a source again, the power of the subwoofer  
turns on automatically by sensing audio signals input to the  
subwoofer.  
This function will operate by sensing a certain level of low  
frequency input signal. Usually set the AUTO STANDBY  
switch to the LOW position. However, if the power is not  
switched on or to the standby mode smoothly, set the switch  
to the HIGH position. In the HIGH position, the power will  
turn on even with a low level of input signal. But please be  
aware that the subwoofer may not switch to the standby  
mode when there is an extremely low input signal.  
* The power might turn on unexpectedly by sensing noise  
from other appliances. If that occurs, set the AUTO  
STANDBY switch to the OFF position and use the  
POWER switch to switch the power between ON and  
OFF manually.  
* This function detects the low-frequency components  
below 200 Hz of the input signals (i.e., the explosion in  
the action movie, the sound of the bass guitar or the bass  
drum, etc.).  
* The minutes required to switch the subwoofer to the  
standby mode might change by sensing noise from other  
appliances.  
This function is available only when the power of the  
subwoofer is on (by pressing the POWER switch).  
Adjusting the subwoofer before use  
Before using the subwoofer, adjust the subwoofer to obtain the optimum volume balance between the subwoofer and the front  
speakers by following the procedures described below.

volume of your whole sound system by using the  
amplifiers volume control.  
1 Set the VOLUME control to minimum (0).  
2 Turn on the power of all the other  
components.  
However, if you change the front speakers (NX-E130)  
to others, you must make this adjustment again.  
For adjusting the VOLUME control, refer to  
Frequency characteristicsbelow.  
3 Press the POWER switch to the ON position.  
*
The power indicator on the front panel lights  
up in green.  
4 Play a source containing low-frequency  
components and adjust the amplifier’s  
volume control to the desired listening level.  
5 Increase the volume gradually to adjust the  
volume balance between the subwoofer and  
the front speakers.  
Normally, set the control to the level where you  
can obtain a little more bass effect than when  
this unit is not used.

ADVANCEDYAMAHA ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY  
(for SW-P130)  
The theory of Yamaha Active Servo Technology has been  
based upon two major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and  
negative-impedance drive. Active Servo Processing  
speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air  
woofer”, which is a port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet.  
This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions  
of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system.  
Thus, signals of low amplitude within the cabinet can,  
according to the Helmholtz resonance theory, be outputted  
from this opening as waves of great amplitude if the size of  
the opening and the volume of the cabinet are in the correct  
proportion to satisfy a certain ratio.  
By employing negative-impedance drive circuits, the  
amplifier is able to generate precise, low-amplitude, low-  
frequency waves with superior damping characteristics.  
These waves are then radiated from the cabinet opening as  
high-amplitude signals. The system can, therefore, by  
employing the negative-impedance output drive amplifier  
and a speaker cabinet with the Helmholtz resonator,  
reproduce an extremely wide range of frequencies with  
amazing sound quality and less distortion.  
The features described above, then, are combined to be the  
fundamental structure of the conventional Yamaha Active  
Servo Technology.  
In order to accomplish this, moreover, the amplitudes within  
the cabinet must be both precise and of sufficient power  
because these amplitudes must overcome the “load”  
presented by the air that exists within the cabinet.  
Our new Active Servo Technology — Advanced Yamaha  
Active Servo Technology — adopted Advanced Negative  
Impedance Converter (ANIC) circuits, which allows the  
conventional negative impedance converter to dynamically  
vary in order to select an optimum value for speaker  
impedance variation. With this new ANIC circuits, Advanced  
Yamaha Active Servo Technology can provide more stable  
performance and improved sound pressure compared with  
the conventional Yamaha Active Servo Technology, resulting  
in more natural and dynamic bass reproduction.  
Thus it is this problem that is resolved through the  
employment of a new design in which the amplifier supplies  
special signals. If the electrical resistance of the voice coil  
could be reduced to zero, the movement of the speaker unit  
would become linear with respect to signal voltage. To  
accomplish this, a special negative-impedance output-drive  
amplifier for subtracting output impedance of the amplifier is  
used.

Placing speakers  
The speaker layout below shows the standard ITU-R  
speaker setting. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP and  
multi-channel audio sources.  
*
Front speakers (FL and FR)  
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus  
effect sounds. Place these speakers at an equal distance  
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each  
speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the  
same.  
*
ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU  
(International Telecommunication Union).  
Center speaker (C)  
FL  
FR  
C
The center speaker is for the center channel 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. Place the  
center speaker centrally between the front speakers and as  
close to the monitor as possible, such as directly over or  
under it.

Surround speakers (SL and SR)  
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround  
sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening  
position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m above the  
floor.  
SB  
Surround back speaker (SB)  
The surround back speaker supplements the surround  
speakers and provides more realistic front-to-back  
transitions. Place this speaker directly behind the listening  
position and at the same height as the surround speakers.

Subwoofer (SW)  
SB  
The use of a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, such as  
the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer  
System, is effective not only for reinforcing bass  
frequencies from any or all channels, but also for hi-fi  
stereo reproduction of the LFE (low-frequency effect)  
channel included in Dolby Digital and DTS sources. 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 front speakers. Turn it  
slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall  
reflections.

CONNECTIONS  
Connecting speakers  
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty,  
no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be  
unnatural and lack bass.  
CAUTION  
Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit is in the standby mode (see page 25).  
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this  
unit. This could damage this unit and/or speakers.  
Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the  
monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor.  
If you are to use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set “SP IMP.” to “6MIN” before using this unit (see  
page 24). 4 ohm speakers can be also used as the front speakers (see page 89).  
Notes  
• A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a  
stripe, groove or ridge. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red) terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the  
plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals.  
• The low-frequency signals of other speakers set to “SML” (or “SMALL”) to “NONE” in “SPEAKER SET” (see page 82) are directed  
to the speakers selected in “BASS OUT” (see page 82).

Press AMP and then press ENHANCER on  
the remote control repeatedly to select the  
desired Compressed Music Enhancer mode.  
The following display is shown in the front panel  
display and the ENHANCER indicator lights up in  
the front panel display.  
Compression artifacts (such as the MP3 format) are  
created by a lossy compression scheme where the audio is  
resampled to lower the bitrate and to remove sounds that  
are indistinguishable to typical human hearing. The  
Compressed Music Enhancer feature of this unit enhances  
your listening experience by regenerating the missing  
harmonics in a compression artifact. As a result, flattened  
complexity due to the loss of the high-frequency fidelity  
as well as lack of bass due to the loss of low-frequency  
bass is compensated, providing the improved performance  
of the overall sound system.

DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) TUNING  
DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) TUNING  
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting), also known as digital radio, is a new way of radio broadcasting. DAB is broadcast  
using digital signals instead of analog signals, resulting in near CD-quality sound. Analog signals (i.e. AM/FM) are  
susceptible to interference (i.e. distorting and noise) caused by electrical equipment, weather conditions, tall buildings,  
mountains, etc. whereas digital signals are not. Thus, with DAB, there is virtually interference-free reception and no hiss  
or crackle.  
Another advantage of DAB is that a large amount of information can be carried within the digital signal. DAB is  
broadcast in blocks of data called ensembles (also known as multiplexes). Several radio programs called services can be  
broadcast simultaneously in each ensemble. This means that you can choose between several radio programs within one  
frequency.  
In addition to the audio signal, service information is also broadcast and displayed in the front panel display of this unit.  
Part of the service information is text data information called Dynamic Label Segment (DLS). For more information, see  
page 59.  
With DAB, there is no need to remember channel frequencies. All broadcasts are selected by simply selecting the service  
name.  
Notes  
• Be sure to check the DAB coverage in your area in that not all  
Ensemble

SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS  
SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS  
What really creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument are the multiple reflections from the walls of the room. In  
addition to making the sound live, these reflections enable us to tell where the player is situated as well as the size and  
shape of the room in which we are sitting.  
Elements of a sound field  
There are two distinct types of sound reflections that combine to make up the sound field in addition to the direct sound  
coming straight to our ears from the player’s instrument.  
Early reflections  
Reflected sounds reach our ears extremely rapidly (50 ms to 100 ms after the direct sound), after reflecting from one  
surface only (for example, from a wall or the ceiling). Early reflections actually add clarity to the direct sound.  
Reverberations  
These are caused by reflections from more than one surface (for example, from the walls, and the ceiling) so numerous  
that they merge together to form a continuous sonic afterglow. They are non-directional and lessen the clarity of the direct  
sound.  
Direct sound, early reflections and subsequent reverberations taken together help us to determine the subjective size and  
shape of the room, and it is this information that the digital sound field processor reproduces in order to create sound  
fields.  
If you could create the appropriate early reflections and subsequent reverberations in your listening room, you would be  
able to create your own listening environment. The acoustics in your room could be changed to those of a concert hall, a  
dance floor, or a room with virtually any size at all. This ability to create sound fields at will is exactly what YAMAHA  
has done with the digital sound field processor.  
Selecting sound field programs  
Notes  
• Choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, not merely on the name of the program.  
• When you select an input source, this unit automatically selects the last sound field program used with the corresponding input source.  
• Sound field programs cannot be selected when the component connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks is selected as the input  
source (see page 36).  
• Sampling frequencies higher than 48 kHz (except for DTS 96/24 signals) are sampled down to 48 kHz and then sound field programs  
are applied.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS  
Sound field program descriptions  
This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multi-channel playback from  
almost any stereo or multi-channel sound source. This unit is also equipped with a YAMAHA digital sound field  
processing (DSP) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience.  
y
The YAMAHA CINEMA DSP modes are compatible with all Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Surround sources. Set “INPUT MODE”  
to “AUTO” (see page 32) to enable this unit to automatically switch to the appropriate digital decoder according to the input signal.  
Notes  
• The DSP sound field programs of this unit are recreations of real-world acoustic environments made from precise measurements taken  
in the actual concert hall, music venue, movie theater, etc. Thus, you may notice variations in the strength of the reflections coming  
from the front, back, left and right.  
• Choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, not merely on the name of the program itself.  
For movie/video sources  
You can select from the following sound fields when playing movie or video sources. The sound fields marked “MULTI”  
can be used with multi-channel sources, like DVD, digital TV, etc. Those marked “2-CH” can be used with 2-channel  
stereo sources like TV programs, video tapes, etc.

To change sound field parameter settings to suit your listening environment, see page 69 for details.  
Sound field parameter  
Features  
DSP level. Adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range. Depending on  
the acoustics of your listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP effect level  
relative to the level of the direct sound.  
DSP LEVEL

Room size. Presence, surround, and surround back room size. Adjusts the apparent size of the  
surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround sound field becomes. As the  
sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between  
the original reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the  
reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter  
from one to two doubles the apparent length of the room.

Liveness. Surround and surround back liveness. Adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the

source decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall surfaces than in one which  
has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces is referred to as  
“dead”, while a room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as “live”. This parameter lets  
you adjust the early reflection decay rate and thus the “liveness” of the room.

Dolby Surround  
Audio information  
Dolby Digital  
Dolby Surround uses a 4-channel analog recording system  
to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front  
left and right channels (stereo), a center channel for dialog  
(monaural), and a surround channel for special sound  
effects (monaural). The surround channel reproduces  
sound within a narrow frequency range. 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.  
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives  
you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3  
front channels (front L/R and center), and 2 surround  
stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 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). By using 2-channel stereo for the surround  
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 5 full-range channels  
and the precise sound orientation generated using digital  
sound processing provide listeners with unprecedented  
excitement and realism. With this unit, any sound  
environment from monaural up to a 5.1-channel  
configuration can be freely selected for your enjoyment.  
DTS 96/24  
DTS 96/24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality  
for multi-channel sound on DVD video, and is fully  
backward-compatible with all DTS decoders. “96” refers  
to a 96 kHz sampling rate compared to the typical 48 kHz  
sampling rate. “24” refers to 24-bit word length. DTS 96/  
24 offers sound quality transparent to the original 96/24  
master, and 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-  
motion video for music programs and motion picture  
soundtracks on DVD video.  
Dolby Digital EX  
Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output  
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a  
matrix decoder that derives 3 surround channels from the  
2 in the original recording. For the best results, Dolby  
Digital EX should be used with movie sound tracks  
recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this  
additional channel, you can experience more dynamic and  
realistic moving sound especially with scenes with “fly-  
over” and “fly-around” effects.  
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
Digital Surround  
DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog  
soundtracks of movies with a 6.1-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 produces  
practically distortion-free 6.1-channel sound (technically,  
front left and right, center, surround left and right and LFE  
0.1 (subwoofer) channels for a total of 5.1 channels). This  
unit incorporates a DTS-ES decoder that enables 6.1-  
channel reproduction by adding the surround back channel  
to the existing 5.1-channel format.  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
Dolby Pro Logic II is an improved technique used to  
decode vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround sources.  
This new technology enables a discrete 5-channel  
playback with 2 front left and right channels, 1 center  
channel, and 2 surround left and right channels instead of  
only 1 surround channel for conventional Pro Logic  
technology. There are three modes available: “Music  
mode” for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie  
sources and “Game mode” for game sources.  
ITU-R  
ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU  
(International Telecommunication Union). ITU-R  
recommends a standard speaker placement which is used  
in many critical listening rooms, especially for mastering  
purposes.  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a new technology enabling discrete  
multi-channel playback from 2-channel or multi-channel  
sources. There are three modes available: “Music mode”  
for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources (for  
2-channel sources only) and “Game mode” for game  
sources.

GLOSSARY  
LFE 0.1 channel  
This channel reproduces low-frequency signals. The  
frequency range of this channel is from 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 5/6 channels in Dolby Digital or  
DTS 5.1/6.1-channel systems.  
Neo:6  
Neo:6 decodes the conventional 2-channel sources for 6-  
channel playback by the specific decoder. It enables  
playback with the full-range channels with higher  
separation just like digital discrete signal playback. There  
are two modes available: “Music mode” for music sources  
and “Cinema mode” for movie sources.  
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.  
Sampling frequency and number of  
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.

Video information  
Sound field program information  
Component video signal  
CINEMA DSP  
With the component video signal system, the video signal  
is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the PB  
and PR signals for the chrominance. Color can be  
reproduced more faithfully with this system because each  
of these signals is independent. The component signal is  
also called the “color difference signal” because the  
luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal. A  
monitor with component input jacks is required in order to  
output component signals.  
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 designed for  
acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room  
size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can  
differ so widely, it is inevitable that there are differences in  
the sound heard. 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 audiovisual  
experience of movie theater in the listening room of your  
own home.  
Composite video signal  
With the composite video signal system, the video signal  
is composed of three basic elements of a video picture:  
color, brightness and synchronization data. A composite  
video jack on a video component transmits these three  
elements combined.  
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.  
S-video signal  
With the 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.  
Virtual CINEMA DSP  
YAMAHA has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP  
algorithm that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field  
surround effects even without any surround speakers by  
using virtual surround speakers. It is even possible to  
enjoy Virtual CINEMA DSP using a minimal two-speaker  
system that does not include a center speaker.
