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.

I Connecting a CD player  
This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of  
digital signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables.  
You can use the digital jacks to input PCM, Dolby Digital  
and DTS bitstreams. When you connect components to  
both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, priority is given  
to the input signals from the COAXIAL jack. All digital  
input jacks are acceptable for 96-kHz sampling digital  
signals.  
y
The COAXIAL CD and OPTICAL CD jacks are available for a  
CD player which has coaxial or optical digital output jacks.  
When you connect a CD player to both the COAXIAL CD and  
OPTICAL CD jacks, priority is given to the input signals from  
the COAXIAL CD jack.  
I Connecting an MD recorder, tape  
deck or CD recorder  
y
y
You can designate the input for each digital jacks according to  
your component by using 7 I/O ASSIGNMENTon the SET  
MENU (see page 62 for details).  
DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks and analog OUT (REC) are  
independent. Only digital signals are output from DIGITAL  
OUTPUT jacks and analog signals from OUT (REC) jacks.  
When you connect your recording component to both the  
analog and digital input jacks, the priority is given to the digital  
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.

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 SPEAKERSon page 67).

I Notes on the digital signal  
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  
96 kHz sampling digital signal. However when inputting  
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.  
I Notes on playing DTS-CD/LDs  
If the digital output data of the player has been  
processed in any way, you may not be able to perform  
DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection  
between this unit and the player.

after having detected the DTS signal. When playback  
of the DTS source is completed, the tindicator  
may flash. While this indicator is flashing, only DTS  
source can be played. If you want to play a normal  
PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO.  
The tindicator may flash when a search or  
skip operation is performed while the DTS source is  
playing back with the input mode set to AUTO. If  
this status continues for longer than 30 seconds, this  
unit will automatically switch from DTS-decoding”

indicator will turn off.  
1) Digital signal  
2) Analog signal  
In this mode, only the digital input signal  
encoded with DTS is selected even if  
another signal is input at the same time.  
ANALOG: In this mode, only the analog input signal is  
selected even if a digital signal is input at  
the same time.  
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 MODEon 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. YAMAHAs 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, YAMAHAs 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 units 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 units 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 YAMAHAs 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.

I Dolby Digital EX/DTS ES + DSP sound field effect  
These programs provide you with the maximum experience of the spacious surround effects since an extra rear center

a timer, turn the volume down.  
3 Start playback (or select a broadcast station)  
on the source component.  
4 Start recording on the recording component.  
Memory back-up  
y
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.

The Macro feature makes it possible to perform a series of operations by pressing just one button. For example, when  
you want to play a CD, normally you would turn on the components, select the CD input, and press the play button to  
start playback. The Macro feature lets you perform all those operations by simply pressing the CD macro button. The  
macro buttons (the input selector buttons, Å and ı buttons, SYSTEM POWER and STANDBY) are factory set with  
macro programs. You can also program your own macros (see page 46).

*1 In order to turn on some components (including YAMAHA components) connected to this unit, connect those  
components to the AC OUTLET(S) on the rear panel. (Power control may not be synchronized with this unit  
depending on the component. For details, please refer to the operation instruction for the connected component.)  
*2 If the macro you select includes power control functions, the component may be turned off if it is already on when  
you press the macro button. For example, if your TV is on and you press the SYSTEM POWER macro button, the  
TV is turned off.  
*3 By factory setting, playback can be started with any YAMAHA remote control-compatible MD recorders, CD  
players, CD recorders, DVD players, and LD players. When using macros to operate other components, it is either  
necessary to program the PLAY button on the control area of that component (see pages 43 and 44) or to set up a  
manufacturer code (see page 42).  
*4 When TUNER is selected as the input source, YAMAHA tuners receive the last station when this unit is set in the  
standby mode.

The factory-set macro is not cleared when a new macro is  
programmed for a button. The factory-set macro can be used  
again when the programmed macro is cleared.  
It is not possible to add a new signal (macro step) to the  
factory-set macro. Programming a macro changes all macro  
contents.  
A macro programming is used to transmit learning or setup (or  
YAMAHA preset) button signals of this remote control to a  
macro button. If necessary, set up the manufacturer code or  
program a function with the remote control for your  
component.

Use this feature to adjust the delay of the Center and the  
Rear Center channel sounds. This feature works when  
there is sound output from the center speakers with a

the Center speaker or the Rear Center speaker is placed in  
line with the Main speakers or the Rear speakers. By  
delaying the sound from the Center speaker and the Rear  
Center speaker, the apparent distance from the Center  
speaker and the Rear Center speaker to the main listening  
position can be adjusted to make it seem the same as the

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 players 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 SIZEparameter 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 redesignthe 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.

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.

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 livenessof 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.

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 modefor playing music  
sources and Cinema modefor 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 signalbecause  
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, its 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.  
I I/O assignment (SET MENU)  
I S VIDEO signal  
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 units  
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.  
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.
