I Notes on batteries
•
Change all of the batteries if you notice the condition
like; the operating range of the remote control
decreases, the indicator does not flash or its light
becomes dim.
•
•
Do not use old batteries together with new ones.
Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline
and manganese batteries) together. Read the packaging
carefully as these different types of batteries may have
the same shape and color.
RESET button
•
If the batteries have leaked, dispose of them
immediately. Avoid touching the leaked material or
letting it come into contact with clothing, etc. Clean
the battery compartment thoroughly before installing
new batteries.
If the remote control is without batteries for more than
3 minutes, or if exhausted batteries remain in the
remote control, the contents of the memory may be
cleared. When the memory is cleared, insert new
batteries, set up the manufacturer code and program
any acquired functions that may have been cleared.
1 Open the battery compartment cover.
2 Insert three supplied batteries (LR6) in the
correct direction by aligning the + and –
marks on the batteries with the polarity
markings (+ and –) on the inside of the
battery compartment.
3 After new batteries are correctly inserted,
press the RESET button in the battery
compartment using a ball point pen or
similar object. (This does not clear the
contents of the memory.)

PREPARATION
SPEAKER SETUP
Speakers to Be Used
This unit has been designed to provide the best sound-
field quality with an 8-speaker system, using left and right
main speakers, left and right rear speakers, left and right
front effect speakers and a center and rear center
speakers. 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 manufacturer or speakers with the same
tonal quality.
I Use of a subwoofer expands your
sound field
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
the Dolby Digital signal or the DTS signal is played back.
The YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer
System is ideal for natural and lively bass reproduction.
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.). The
front effect speakers are used for the effect sound. If for
some reason it is not practical to use one of speakers (for
example, a center speaker), you can do without it. Best
results, however, are obtained with the full system.
CAUTION
Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of
speakers still creates the interference with a monitor,
place the speakers away from the monitor.
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 the
models of equivalent performance with the main
speakers.

I Main speakers
I Rear center speaker
Place the rear center speaker in the center between the left
and right rear speakers at the same height from the floor
as the rear speakers.
Place the left and right main speakers an equal distance
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each
speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the
same.
I Front effect speakers
Place the front effect speakers about 0.5 - 1 m (1 - 3 feet)
outside the main speakers and in front of the room, facing
slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (6 feet) above the floor.
I Center speaker
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front
face of your video 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.
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.
I Rear speakers
Place these speakers behind your listening position,
facing slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (6 feet) above the
floor.
Note
• If you do not use any effect speakers (rear, front effect, center and/or rear center), change the settings of SPEAKER SET items in the
SET MENU to designate the signals to other terminals you connect speakers to.

SPEAKER SETUP
Connecting the 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
• Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear panel of this unit.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could
damage this unit and/or speakers.
If necessary, use the SET MENU to change the speaker mode settings according to the number and size of the speakers
in your configuration after you finish connecting your speakers.
I Speaker cables
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables
running side by side. One of the cables is colored or
10 mm (3/8”)
shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge.
1 Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of
insulation from each of the speaker cables.

signal.
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.
Note
• 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.
Notes
• DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks and analog OUT (REC) jacks are
independent. Only digital signals are output from DIGITAL
OUTPUT jacks and analog signals from OUT (REC) jacks.
• 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.
I Connecting a turntable
PHONO jacks are for connecting a turntable with an MM
or high-output MC cartridge. If you have a turntable with
a low-output MC cartridge, use an in-line boosting
transformer or MC-head amplifier when connecting to
these jacks.
y
• Connect your turntable to the GND terminal to reduce noise in
the signal. However you may hear less noise without the
connection to the GND terminal for some record players.

Input Modes and Indications
This unit comes with various input jacks. You can set the
priority of the input signal among different types of input
signals.
The digital input jacks of this unit can handle up to a

a higher digital signal than 48 kHz, be aware of the
following points.
• Sound effect will be added to the signals after converting the
sampling frequency to 48 kHz or below.
Press (INPUT) MODE (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 front panel display and on the
video monitor.
• When the sound effect is turned off by pressing STEREO/
EFFECT, this unit reproduces sound in 2-channel stereo at the
sampling frequency of the input signal.

Notes
• If digital signals are input from both the COAXIAL and
OPTICAL jacks, the digital signal from the COAXIAL jack
has precedence over the OPTICAL jack.
• In playing the disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS on
some LD or DVD players, the sound output delays for a
moment when playback resumes after a search because the
digital signal is selected again.
• When playing the LD source that has not been digitally
recorded, the sound may not be output for some LD players. In
this case, set the input mode to ANALOG.
y
• 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.
• When you turn on the power of this unit, the input mode is set
according to “8 INPUT MODE” on the SET MENU (see page

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSING (DSP)
Understanding Sound Fields
A sound field is defined as the “characteristic sound reflections of a
particular space.” In concert halls and other music venues, we hear
early reflections and reverberations as well as the direct sound
produced by the artist(s). The variations in the early reflections and
other reverberations among the different music venues is what gives
each venue its special and recognizable sound quality.
YAMAHA sent teams of sound engineers all around the world to
measure the sound reflections of famous concert halls and music
venues, and collect detailed sound field information such as the
direction, strength, range, and delay time of those reflections. Then
we stored this enormous amount of data in the ROM chips of this
unit.
Hi-Fi DSP Programs
Recreating the sound field of a concert hall or an opera house requires localizing the virtual sound sources in your
listening room. The traditional stereo system that uses only two speakers is not capable of recreating a realistic sound
field. YAMAHA’s DSP requires four effect speakers to recreate sound fields based on the measured sound field data.
The processor controls the strength and delay time of the signals output from the four effect speakers to localize the
virtual sound sources in a full circle around the listener.
CINEMA-DSP
Filmmakers intend the dialog to be located right on the screen, the effect sound a little farther back, the music spread
even farther back, and the surround sound around the listener. Of course, all of these sounds must be synchronized with
the images on the screen.
CINEMA-DSP is an upgraded version of YAMAHA DSP specially designed for movie soundtracks. CINEMA-DSP
integrates the DTS, Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro Logic surround sound technologies with YAMAHA DSP sound field
programs to provide the surround sound field. It recreates the most complete movie sound design in your audio room. In
CINEMA-DSP sound field programs, YAMAHA’s exclusive DSP processing is added to the right and left Main and
Center channels, so the listener can enjoy realistic dialogue, depth of sound, smooth transition between sound sources,
and a surround sound field that goes beyond the screen.
When a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is detected, the CINEMA-DSP sound field processor automatically chooses the
most suitable sound field program for that signal.

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSING (DSP)
Straight Decode
This unit is equipped with various precise decoders;
• Dolby Digital/DTS decoder for multi-channel reproduction of the original sound
• Dolby Digital EX/DTS ES decoder for an additional rear center channel
• DTS 96/24 decoder for the high quality playback of the DTS 96/24 signal at the sampling frequency 96 kHz.
• Dolby Pro Logic/Pro Logic /DTS Neo:6 decoder for multi-channel reproduction of 2-channel sources
Select any of the STRAIGHT DECODE modes in Program 11 (except for the sub-program “Enhanced.”) to use any of
these decoders for reproducing the original sound without any sound effects added. In this case, no DSP effect is applied
and the DSP indicator turns off.
Sound Field Effect
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 programs provide the same quality of sound and sound
localization that 6-channel soundtracks do. The built-in Dolby Digital or DTS decoder brings the professional-quality
sound designed for movie theaters into your home. With this unit’s MOVIE THEATER programs, you can recreate a
dynamic sound that gives you the feeling of being at a public theater in your listening room by using Dolby Digital or
DTS technology.
I Dolby Digital/DTS + DSP sound field effect
These programs use YAMAHA’s tri-field DSP processing
Presence DSP
sound field
on each of the Dolby Digital or DTS signals for the front,
left surround and right surround channels. This processing
enables this unit to reproduce the immense sound field
and surround expression of a Dolby Digital- or DTS-
equipped movie theater without sacrificing the clear
separation of all channels.

These signals are processed by the Dolby Pro Logic

encoding and decoding processes.
I Dolby Pro Logic /DTS Neo: 6
Dolby Pro Logic and DTS Neo: 6 equipped on this unit decode the 2-channel Dolby Surround software into five or
six full range channels. They also provide two modes; MOVIE/CINEMA for movies and MUSIC for 2-channel sources.

The memory back-up circuit prevents the stored data
(input source, volume level, set menu settings and so
on) from being lost even if this unit is in the standby
mode (disconnected from the AC outlet). However if
the timer is turned off for more than one week, the
stored data will be lost.
• Setting REC OUT to SOURCE and using the BGV function
(see page 29) allows the recording of audio and video from a
different source.

REMOTE CONTROL FEATURES
The remote control can operate other A/V components of YAMAHA and other manufacturers as well as this unit. To
control those components, you must set up remote control with the manufacturer codes.
This remote control also has two sophisticated features: Learn and Macro. The Learn feature allows it to acquire
functions from the remote controls of other components in your system (or other household appliances) equipped with
an infrared remote control receiver. The Macro feature allows you to program a series of operations in sequence for
operation by a single button, or to use the factory-set macros to operate otherYAMAHA components. These features
make it possible for you to reduce the number of remote control in your entertainment room.
Notes
• For the operating distance of the remote control and notes about batteries, see pages 3 and 7.
• For the name and function of each part and button, see pages 6 and 7.

Use this feature to adjust the output level of the
subwoofer so it matches that of the other speakers in your
configuration. Change the setting with the remote control

I About the test tone
The test tone is produced by the tone generator.
The tone generator produces a narrow-band noise
centered on a specified frequency by the band pass filter
beside a wide-band noise.
1 Press –/+ to set “TEST TONE” to ON, and
adjust the volume with VOLUME +/– so you
can hear the tone.
You can change this center frequency from 35 Hz through
250 Hz in one-sixth octave steps.
2
LOW FRQ TEST
You can use the test tone not only for adjusting the
subwoofer level, but also for checking the low-frequency
characteristics of your listening room. Low-frequency
sounds are especially affected by the listener’s position,
speaker placement, subwoofer polarity and other
conditions.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM PARAMETER EDITING
What Is a Sound Field?
Sound Field Program Parameters
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, and the size
and shape of the room in which we are sitting.
DSP programs consist of some parameters to determine
the apparent room size, reverberation time, distance from
you to the performer, etc. In each program, these
parameters are set with values precisely calculated by
YAMAHA to create a sound field unique to the program.
It is recommended to use DSP programs without
changing the values of parameters; however, this unit also
allows you to create your own sound fields. Starting with
one of the built-in programs, you can adjust those
parameters.
I Elements of a sound field
In any environment, in addition to the direct sound
coming straight to our ears from the player’s instrument,
there are two distinct types of sound reflections that
combine to make up the sound field:
Each DSP program has a set of parameters that allow you
to change the characteristics of the acoustic environment
to precisely create the effect you want. These parameters
correspond to the many natural acoustic factors that create
the sound field you experience in an actual concert hall or
other listening environment. The size of the room, for
example, affects the length of time between the early
reflections. The “ROOM SIZE” parameter provided in
many of the DSP programs alters the timing between
these reflections, thus changing the shape of the “room”
you are listening. In addition to room size, the shape of
the room and the characteristics of its surfaces have a
significant effect on the final sound. Surfaces that absorb
sound, for example, cause the reflections and
reverberations to die out more quickly, while highly
reflective surfaces allow the reflections to carry on for a
longer period of time. The digital sound field parameters
allow you to control these and many other factors that
contribute to your personal sound field, allowing you to
essentially “redesign” the concert halls, theaters, etc.
provided to create custom-tailored listening environments
that ideally match your mood and music.
Early reflections
Reflected sounds reach our ears extremely rapidly
(50 ms – 100 ms after the direct sound), after reflecting
from one surface only — for example, from the ceiling or
a wall. Early reflections actually add clarity to the direct
sound.
Reverberations
These are caused by reflections from more than one
surface — walls, ceiling, the back of the room — 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
reverberation 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 virtually any size room at
all. This ability to create sound fields at will is exactly
what YAMAHA has done with the digital sound field
processor.
See “DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PARAMETER
DESCRIPTIONS” on pages 71 to 74.

mode, the power cord is disconnected from the AC
outlet, or the power supply is temporarily cut due to
power failure. However, if the power is cut for more
than one week, the parameter value you edited will
return to the factory setting. If so, edit the parameter

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS
You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your
listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.
I DSP LEVEL
Control Range –6 dB – +3 dB
Function:
This parameter adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range.
Description:
Depending on the acoustics of you listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP effect
level relative to the direct sound.
I INIT. DLY (Initial Delay)
[P. INT. DLY for the presence sound field]
Control Range 1 – 99 msec
Function:
This parameter changes the apparent distance from the source sound by adjusting the delay between the
direct sound and the first reflection heard by the listener.
Description:
The smaller the value, the closer the sound source seems to the listener. The larger the value, the farther
the apparent distance seems. For a small room, this parameter would be set to a small value, and for a
large room, it would be set to a large value.

I ROOM SIZE
[P. ROOM SIZE for the presence sound field]
Control Range 0.1 – 2.0
Function:
This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the
surround sound field becomes.
Description:
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.

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS
I LIVENESS
Control Range 0 – 10
Function:
This parameter adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the
early reflections decay.
Description:
The early reflections of a sound 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”. The
LIVENESS parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the “liveness” of the
room.

depends on the signal format.)
Function:
This parameter adjusts the delay for surround signals and surround sound field.
I S. INIT. DLY (Surround Initial Delay)
Control Range 1 – 49 msec
Function:
This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection on the surround side
of the sound field. You can only adjust this parameter when at least two front channels and two rear
channels are used.
I S. ROOM SIZE (Surround Room Size)
Control Range 0.1 – 2.0
Control Range 0 –10
Function:
This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field.
I S. LIVENESS (Surround Liveness)
Function:
This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual walls in the surround sound field.
I RC INIT. DLY (Rear Center Initial Delay)
Control Range 1 – 49 msec
Function:
This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the rear center
sound field.
I RC ROOM SIZE (Rear Center Room Size)
Control Range 0.1 – 2.0
Function:
This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the rear center sound field.
I RC LIVENESS (Rear Center Liveness)
Control Range 0 – 10
Function:
This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual wall in the rear center sound field.

GLOSSARY
I Dolby Surround
I Dolby Pro Logic
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.
Dolby Pro Logic is the improved technique to decode
vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround programs. This
new technology enables a discrete 5-channel playback
with two left and right main channels, a center channel,
and two left and right rear channels compared with one
limited rear channel for the conventional Pro Logic
technology. Also the music mode is available for 2-
channel sources in addition to the movie mode.
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 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
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).
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).
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 DTS ES (Extended Surround)
This unit is equipped with the DTS ES decoder that can
reproduce 5.1-channel sources adding a rear center
channel. The DTS ES decoder on this unit is compatible
with the two types of format: Discrete 6.1 and Matrix 6.1.
The DTS ES Discrete decoder enables the 6.1-channel
playback by adding a rear center channel recorded
independently from the 5.1 channels. The DTS ES Matrix
decoder enables the 6.1-channel playback by adding a
rear center created from the rear L/R channels. This
decoder is the most suitable to reproduce the music or the
soundtrack of the movies recorded by DTS ES.
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up
to a 5.1-channel configuration can be freely selected for
your enjoyment.
I Dolby Digital Surround EX
This unit is equipped with the Dolby Digital decoder that
can reproduce 5.1-channel sources adding a rear center
channel. (The sound to be output from a rear center
speaker is created by mixing the content of rear L/R
channels.) This decoder is the most suitable to reproduce
the soundtrack for the movies recorded by Dolby Digital
Surround EX. You can enjoy dynamic and realistic sounds
by adding another channel.
I 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. Two
modes are available; “Music mode” for playing music
sources and “Cinema mode” for movies.
I DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 achieves the high quality playback with all 5.1
channels at the sampling frequency 96 kHz / 24 bit by
using the data for extension of a DTS signal, that is
recorded on the DTS 96/24 software.

GLOSSARY
I LFE 0.1 channel
I Component video signal
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.
With the component video signal system, the video signal
is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the
PB/CB and PR/CR 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 use the component signal for output.
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 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
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.
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.
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.
It is even possible to enjoy virtual CINEMA DSP in a
minimum two-speaker system that does not include a
center speaker.

With S VIDEO signal system, the video signal normally
transmitted using a pin cable is separated and transmitted
