Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

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.

RESET button

•

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.

•

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.

1 Open the battery compartment cover.

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.

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.)

4 Replace the cover as pressing until it snaps

into place.

PREPARATION

SPEAKER SETUP

Speakers to Be Used

Speaker Placement

This unit has been designed to provide the best sound-

field quality with a 6-speaker system, using left and right

main speakers, left and right rear 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.

Refer to the following diagram when you place the

speakers.

Center speaker

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.).

Rear center

speaker

Rear speaker (L)

I Main 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.

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 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 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.

Note

• If the center speaker is not used, the center channel sound will

be heard from the left and right main speakers. In this case,

“1A CENTER SP” on the SET MENU is set to NONE (see

page 51 for details).

I Rear speakers

Place these speakers behind your listening position,

facing slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (6 feet) above the

floor.

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.

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.

CAUTION

Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of

speakers still creates the interference with a monitor,

place the speakers away from the monitor.

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.

2 Twist the exposed wires of the cable

together to prevent short circuits.

I Connecting to the SPEAKERS terminals

1 Unscrew the knob.

Red: positive (+)

Black: negative (–)

2 Insert one bare wire into the hole in the side

of each terminal.

3 Tighten the knob to secure the wire.

I MAIN SPEAKERS terminals

One or two speaker systems can be connected to these terminals. If you use only one speaker system, connect it to either

of the MAIN A or B terminals.

I REAR SPEAKERS terminals

A rear speaker system can be connected to these terminals.

I CENTER SPEAKER terminals

A center speaker can be connected to these terminals.

I SUBWOOFER jack

When using a subwoofer with built-in amplifier, including the YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System,

connect the input jack of the subwoofer system to this jack. Low bass signals distributed from the main, center and/or

rear channels are directed to this jack if they are assigned to this jack. (The cut-off frequency of this jack is 90 Hz.) The

LFE (low-frequency effect) signals generated when Dolby Digital or DTS is decoded are also directed if they are

assigned to this jack.

Notes

• Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on the subwoofer. It is also possible to adjust the volume level by using the

remote control of this unit (see ADJUSTING THE LEVEL OF THE EFFECT SPEAKERS on page 61).

• Depending on the settings of “1 SPEAKER SET” and “10 LFE LEVEL” on the SET MENU, some signals may not be output from

the SUBWOOFER jack.

CONNECTIONS

Before Connecting Components

CAUTION

Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been

completed.

•

Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Some

components require different connection methods and have different jack names. Refer to the operation instructions

for each component to be connected to this unit.

When you connect otherYAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or

changer), connect them to the jack with the same number labels as !, #, $ etc. YAMAHA applies this labeling

system to all its products.

After you have completed all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.

Connecting Video Components

I About the video jacks

There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the VIDEO jacks are the conventional composite video

signals. Video signals input through the S VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals.

The S-video signals achieve high-quality color reproduction. Video signals input through the COMPONENT VIDEO

jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (P^B/C^B, P^R/C^R) video signals. The jacks are also separated

into three for each signal. The description of the component video jacks may be different depending on the component

(e.g. Y, C^B, C^R/Y, P^B, P^R/Y, B-Y, R-Y etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction.

If your video component has an S-video output or component video output, you can connect it to this unit. Connect the

S-video signal output jack on your video component to the S VIDEO jack or connect the component signal output jacks

on your video component to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

COMPONENT VIDEO

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 also handle

96-kHz sampling digital signals. (To utilize this, use a

source that supports 96-kHz sampling digital signals and

set the player for digital output. Refer to the operation

instructions for the player.) Note the following when a 96-

kHz sampling digital signal is input to this unit:

– DSP programs cannot be selected. Sound will be output

as normal 2-channel stereo sound from only the left and

right main speakers.

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 57 for details).

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.

Note

• If “1B MAIN SP” on the SET MENU is set to SMALL and

“1E LFE/BASS OUT” is set to SWFR, or “1E LFE/BASS

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.

I Recreating a sound field

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.

Hi-Fi DSP Programs

The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in

mind that most of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments.

CONCERT HALL 1 Europe Hall A

Features

This is a large fan-shaped concert hall with approximately 2500 seats.

There is relatively little reflection from the walls, and sound spreads

finely and beautifully.

Europe Hall B

U.S.A. Hall C

Live Concert

This is a large shoe-box type concert hall with less than 2400 seats

located in Frankfurt. This hall has a very solid, powerful sound. The

listener’s virtual seat is in the center-right section on the first floor.

CONCERT HALL 2

This is a large 2600 seat concert hall in the United States which features

a fairly traditional European design. The middle and high frequencies

are richly and beautifully reinforced.

A large round concert hall with a rich surround effect. Pronounced

reflections from all directions emphasize the extension of sounds. The

sound field has a great deal of presence, and your virtual seat is near the

center, close to the stage.

CHURCH

Freiburg

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a big church located

in south Germany. The reverberation delay is very long while the early

reflections are smaller than with other sound field programs.

Royaumont

This program features the sound field created by the refectory (dining

hall) of a beautiful medieval Gothic monastery located in Royaumont on

the outskirts of Paris.

CINEMA-DSP

Sound Design of 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.

CINEMA-DSP

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

on each of the Dolby Digital or DTS signals for the front,

left surround and right surround channels. This processing

Presence DSP

sound field

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.

I Dolby Digital Matrix 6.1/DTS ES + DSP sound field effect

These programs provide you with the maximum experience of the spacious surround effects since an extra rear center

DSP sound field created from the rear center channel is added.

I Dolby Pro Logic + DSP sound field effect

Most movie software has 4-channel (left, center, right and

Presence DSP

sound field

surround) sound information encoded by Dolby Surround

matrix processing and stored on the left and right tracks.

These signals are processed by the Dolby Pro Logic

decoder. The MOVIE THEATER programs are designed

to recreate the spaciousness and delicate nuances of

sound that tend to be lost in the 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

discrete full-range channels (3 channels in front and 2 or 3 channels in rear). They also provide two modes; MOVIE/

CINEMA for movies and MUSIC for 2-channel source.

Sci-Fi

This program creates the extremely wide sound field of a 70-mm movie theater. It

precisely reproduces the source sound in detail, making both the video and the sound

field incredibly real. This is ideal for any kind of video source encoded with Dolby

Surround, Dolby Digital or DTS (especially large-scale movie productions).

THEATER 1

This program clearly reproduces dialog and sound effects in the latest sound form of

science fiction films, thus creating a broad and expansive cinematic space amid the

silence. You can enjoy science fiction films in a virtual-space sound field that includes

Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital and DTS-encoded software employing the most advanced

techniques.

MOVIE

THEATER 2

Adventure

General

This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of the newest 70-mm

and multichannel soundtrack films. The sound field is made to be similar to that of the

newest movie theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as

much as possible.

This program is for reproducing sounds from 70-mm and multichannel soundtrack films,

and is characterized by a soft and extensive sound field. The presence sound field is

relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen, restraining the

echo effect of conversations without losing clarity.

Enhanced Mode

This program ideally simulates the multi-surround speaker systems of the 35-mm film

theaters. Dolby Pro Logic decoding, Dolby Digital decoding or DTS decoding and digital

sound field processing create precise effects without altering the original sound

orientation.

The surround effects produced by this sound field wrap around the viewer naturally from

the back to the left and right, and toward the screen.

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.

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. These reflections fall into specific patterns as

shown in the diagram on page 65 for any particular

environment, and provide vital information to our ears.

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.

pages 65 to 68.

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 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.

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.

Function:

This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the surround sound.

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

Function:

This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field.

I S. LIVENESS (Surround Liveness)

Control Range 0 –10

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.

Function:

This parameter adjusts the amount of time it takes for the dense, subsequent reverberation sound to

decay by 60 dB (at 1 kHz). This changes the apparent size of the acoustic environment over an

extremely wide range.

Description:

Set a longer reverberation time for “dead” sources and listening room environments, and a shorter time

for “live” sources and listening room environments.

GLOSSARY

I Dolby Surround

I DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

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.

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

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).

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 Dolby Digital

I DTS Neo: 6

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).

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 LFE 0.1 channel

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.

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.

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.

With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up

to a 5.1-channel configuration can be freely selected for

your enjoyment.

I Dolby Pro Logic

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.

I SILENT CINEMA DSP

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.

GLOSSARY

I Virtual CINEMA DSP

I Sampling frequency and number

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.

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.

It is even possible to enjoy virtual CINEMA DSP in a

minimum two-speaker system that does not include a

center speaker.

I S VIDEO signal

With 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.

I I/O assignment (SET MENU)

Although component is normally connected according to

jack names shown on the rear panel, this unit includes a

function that assigns jacks according to the component

being connected. If the component being used differs

from the component name shown for this unit’s

component video input jacks or digital input/output jacks,

it is possible to assign jacks according to the component

being connected. This makes it possible to change the

jack assignment and effectively connect more component.

I Component video signal

With the component video signal system, the video signal

is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the

P^B/C^Band P^R/C^Rsignals 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 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.
