QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
11 Power Sources – This product should be operated only from  
the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If  
you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,  
consult your product dealer or local power company. For  
products intended to operate from battery power, or other  
sources, refer to the operating instructions.  
12 Grounding or Polarization – This product may be equipped  
with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having  
one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the  
power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you  
are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try  
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact  
your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not  
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.  
13 Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be  
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched  
by items placed upon or against them, paying particular  
attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the  
point where they exit from the product.  
14 Lightning – For added protection for this product during a  
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for  
long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and  
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent  
damage to the product due to lightning and power-line  
surges.  
15 Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be  
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other  
electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such  
power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna  
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching  
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be  
fatal.  
16 Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension  
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result  
in a risk of fire or electric shock.

SPEAKER SETUP  
Surround back speakers (SBR and SBL)  
Speaker placement  
The surround back speakers supplement the surround  
speakers and provide for more realistic front-to-back  
transitions. Place these speakers directly behind the  
listening position and at the same height as the surround  
speakers. They should be positioned at least 30 cm (12 in)  
apart. Ideally, they should be positioned at the same width  
as the front speakers.

Subwoofer  
The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active  
Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only  
for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels,  
but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low-  
frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and  
DTS software. The position of the subwoofer is not so  
critical, because low bass sounds are not highly  
directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the  
front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the  
room to reduce wall reflections.

The speaker layout above shows the standard ITU-R speaker  
setting. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP, multi-channel  
audio sources and THX.  
Presence speakers (PR and PL)  
Presence speakers supplement the sound from the front  
speakers with extra ambient effects produced by  
CINEMA DSP (see page 41). These effects include  
sounds that filmmakers intend to locate a little farther  
back behind the screen in order to create more theater-like  
ambience. Place these speakers at the front of the room  
about 0.5 - 1 m (1 - 3 ft) outside the front speakers, facing  
slightly inwards, and about 1.8 m (6 ft) above the floor.

■ Di-pole speaker layout  
Either di-pole or direct radiating speaker types can be used  
for THX surround. If you choose di-pole speakers, please  
place the surround and surround back speakers according  
to the speaker layout below.  
Front speakers (FR and FL)  
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus  
effect sounds. Place these 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.  
FL  
FR  
C
Center speaker (C)  
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds  
(dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it is not practical  
to use a center speaker, you can do without it. Best results,  
however, are obtained with the full system. Align the front  
face of the center speaker with the front face of your video  
monitor. Place the speaker centrally between the front  
speakers and as close to the monitor as possible, such as  
directly over or under it.

■ Video jacks  
This unit has three types of video jacks. Connection  
depends on the availability of input jacks on your monitor.  
The signals input through the VIDEO jack on this unit can  
be output through the S VIDEO and COMPONENT  
VIDEO jacks (see page 56). The signals input through the

COMPONENT VIDEO jacks  
For component signals, separated into luminance (Y) and  
color difference (PB, PR) to provide the best quality in  
picture reproduction.  
■ Digital jacks  
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 compatible with 96-kHz sampling digital  
signals.  
Note  
When signals are input through both the S VIDEO and VIDEO  
jacks, signals input through the S VIDEO jack have priority.  
Note  
This unit handles digital and analog signals independently. Thus  
audio signals input to the analog jacks are only output to the  
analog OUT (REC) jacks. Likewise audio signals input to the  
digital (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jacks are only output to the  
DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.

AUTO SETUP  
AUTO SETUP  
Introduction  
Optimizer microphone setup  
This receiver employs YAMAHA Parametric Room  
Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) technology which lets you  
avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and  
achieves highly accurate sound adjustments. The supplied  
optimizer microphone collects and analyzes the sound  
your speakers produce in your actual listening  
environment.

The basic setup feature (page 28) is useful if you want to set up  
your system quickly and with minimal effort. However, we  
recommend that you come back and perform auto setup later to  
take advantage of YPAO and enjoy even higher fidelity.  
SILENT EMA  
Notes  
• Loud test tones are output during the auto setup procedure.  
Please be ready!  
• If auto setup stops and error messages appear on the OSD,  
follow the troubleshooting on page 27.  
2
Place the optimizer microphone on a flat  
level surface with the omni-directional  
microphone head upward, at your normal  
listening position.  
• If possible, use a tripod (etc.) to affix the optimizer  
mic at the same height as your ears would be when  
you are seated in your listening position.  
YPAO performs the following checks and makes  
appropriate adjustments to give you the best possible  
sound from your system.  
WIRING  
Checks which speakers are connected and the polarity of  
each speaker.  
Optimizer microphone position  
DISTANCE  
Checks the distance of each speaker from the listening  
position and adjusts the timing of each channel.  
SIZE  
Checks the speaker’s frequency response and sets the  
appropriate low frequency crossover for each channel.  
EQUALIZING  
Adjusts frequency and levels of each channel’s parametric  
equalizer to reduce coloration across the channels and  
create a cohesive sound field. This is particularly  
important if you use different brands or sizes of speakers  
for some channels or have a room with unique sonic  
characteristics.  
YPAO equalizing calibration incorporates three  
parameters (frequency, level and Q factor) for each of the  
seven bands in its parametric equalizer to provide highly  
precise automatic adjustment of frequency characteristics.  
LEVEL  
Checks and adjusts the sound level (volume) of each  
speaker.

Presetting stations  
• Any stored station data existing under a preset number is  
cleared when you store a new station under that preset number.  
• If the number of the received stations does not reach 40 (E8)  
E8, automatic preset tuning has automatically stopped after  
searching all stations.  
• Only FM stations with sufficient signal strength are stored  
automatically by automatic preset tuning. If the station you  
want to store is weak in signal strength, tune in to it manually in  
the monaural mode, and store it by following the procedure in  
“Manually presetting stations”.  
■ Automatically presetting FM stations  
You can use the automatic preset tuning feature to store  
FM stations. This function enables this unit to  
automatically tune in to FM stations with strong signals,  
and to store up to 40 (8 stations x 5 groups, A1-E8) of  
those stations in order. You can then recall any preset  
station easily by selecting the preset station number.

The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to  
digitally record the DTS bitstream will result in noise  
being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit to  
record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them,  
the following considerations and adjustments need to be  
made.  
For LDs, DVDs and CDs encoded with DTS, when your

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS  
This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multichannel playback from  
almost any sound source (stereo or multichannel). This unit is also equipped with a YAMAHA digital sound field  
processing (DSP) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience.  
Most of these sound field programs are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments found in famous  
concert halls, music venues, and movie theaters.  
y
The Yamaha CINEMA DSP modes are compatible with all Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Surround sources. Set INPUT MODE to  
AUTO (see page 34) to enable this unit to automatically switch to the appropriate digital decoder according to the input signal.  
For movie/video sources  
You can select from the following sound fields when playing movie or video sources. The sound fields marked “MULTI”  
can be used with multi-channel sources, like DVD, digital TV, etc. Those marked “2-CH” can be used with 2-channel  
(stereo) sources like TV programs, video tapes, etc.

REMOTE CONTROL FEATURES  
Controlling each component  
Once you set the appropriate manufacturer codes, you can use this remote to control your other components. Note that  
some buttons may not correctly operate the selected component. Use the input selector buttons to select the component  
you want to operate. The remote control automatically switches to the appropriate control mode for that component.

• To control a component without changing the receiver’s input mode, use SELECT k/nto select the component.  
• TV POWER, TV VOL –/+, TV INPUT, and TV MUTE will operate your TV without switching the input if the manufacturer code for  
your TV is set up in the DTV areas. If a component other than TV is set up in the DTV area, you can control your TV by setting up  
your TV in the PHONO area. If your TV is set up in both the DTV and PHONO areas, priority is given to the signal in the DTV area.

■ Special considerations for DTS software  
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. If you attempt to  
send the DTS signal to the second/third room you will  
only hear digital noise (that may damage your speakers).  
Thus, the following considerations and adjustments need  
to be made when playing DTS encoded discs.  
For LDs or DVDs encoded with DTS  
Only 2 channel analog audio signals may be sent to the  
second/third room.  
•
for LDs: Set your LD player’s left and right outputs to  
the analog soundtrack.  
•
for DVDs: Use the disc menu to set the DVD player’s  
mixed 2-channel left and right audio outputs to the  
PCM or Dolby Digital soundtrack.  
For CDs encoded in DTS  
To avoid unexpected noise, DO NOT USE the Zone 2/  
Zone 3 feature with CDs encoded in DTS.

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS  
EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS  
What is a sound field  
Changing parameter settings  
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.  
You can enjoy good quality sound with the factory preset  
parameters. Although you do not have to change the initial  
settings, you can change some of the parameters to better  
suit the input source or your listening room.

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.  
Turn on the video monitor  
and press ON SCREEN

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.

• You cannot change parameter values when MEMORY  
GUARD is set to “ON”. If you want to change the parameter  
values, set MEMORY GUARD to “OFF” (see page 56).  
Memory back-up  
The memory back-up circuit prevents the stored data  
from being lost even if this unit is set in the standby  
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 values will return to the  
factory settings. If this happens, edit the parameter  
value again.  
■ Resetting parameters to the factory  
preset values  
To reset a certain parameter  
Select the parameter you want to reset, then press –/+  
repeatedly until the asterisk mark (*) next to the parameter  
name disappears from the video monitor.  
To reset all parameters  
Use PARAM.INI (see page 57).

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS  
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.  
■ DSP LEVEL  
Function:  
This parameter adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range.  
Depending on the acoustics of you listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP effect  
level relative to the level of the direct sound.  
Description:  
Control range: –6 dB – +3 dB  
■ INIT. DLY/P. INT. DLY (Initial delay)  
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  
it seems. For a small room, set to a small value. For a large room, set to a large value.  
Control range: 1 – 99 msec

■ ROOM SIZE/P. ROOM SIZE (Room size)  
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.

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS  
■ LIVENESS  
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.

■ S. INIT. DLY (Surround initial delay)  
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 surround  
channels are used.  
Control Range: 1 – 49 msec  
■ S. ROOM SIZE (Surround room size)  
Function:  
This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field.  
Control Range: 0.1 – 2.0  
■ S. LIVENESS (Surround liveness)  
Function:  
This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual walls in the surround sound field.  
Control Range: 0 – 10  
■ SB INIT. DLY (Surround back initial delay)  
Function:  
This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the surround back  
sound field.  
Control Range: 1 – 49 msec  
■ SB ROOM SIZE (Surround back room size)  
Function:  
This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround back sound field.  
Control Range: 0.1 – 2.0  
■ SB LIVENESS (Surround back liveness)  
Function:  
This parameter adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual wall in the surround back sound field.  
Control Range: 0 – 10

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS  
■ REV.TIME (Reverberation time)  
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.

■ Dolby Surround  
■ Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
Dolby Surround uses a 4 channel analog recording system  
to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front  
left and right channels (stereo), a center channel for dialog  
(monaural), and a surround channel for special sound  
effects (monaural). The surround channel reproduces  
sound within a narrow frequency range.  
Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes  
and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as  
well. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit  
employs a digital signal processing system that  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a new technology enabling discrete  
7.1-channel playback from 2-channel or multi-channel  
sources. There is a Music mode for music, a Movie mode  
for movies and a Game mode for games.  
■ DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
Digital Surround  
DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog  
soundtracks of movies with a 6-channel digital sound  
track, and is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie  
theaters around the world. Digital Theater Systems Inc.  
has developed a home theater system so that you can  
enjoy the depth of sound and natural spatial representation  
of DTS digital surround in your home. This system  
produces practically distortion-free 6-channel sound  
(technically, a left, right and center channels, 2 surround  
channels, plus an LFE 0.1 channel as a subwoofer, for a  
total of 5.1 channels).  
automatically stabilizes the volume on each channel to  
enhance moving sound effects and directionality.  
■ Dolby Digital  
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives  
you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3  
front channels (left, center, and right), and 2 surround  
stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range audio  
channels. With an additional channel especially for bass  
effects, called LFE (low frequency effect), the system has  
a total of 5.1 channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel). By  
using 2-channel stereo for the surround speakers, more  
accurate moving sound effects and surround sound  
environment are possible than with Dolby Surround. The  
wide dynamic range (from maximum to minimum  
volume) reproduced by the 5 full-range channels and the  
precise sound orientation generated using digital sound  
processing provide listeners with previously unheard of  
excitement and realism.  
The unit incorporates DTS-ES decoder that enables 6.1-  
channel reproduction by adding the surround back channel  
to existing 5.1-channel format.  
■ 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.  
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up  
to a 5.1-channel configuration can be freely selected for  
your enjoyment.  
■ LFE 0.1 channel  
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 5/6 channels in a Dolby Digital or  
DTS 5.1/6.1 channel systems.  
Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output  
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a  
matrix decoder that derives 3 surround channels from the  
2 in the original recording. For the best results, Dolby  
Digital EX should be used with movie sound tracks  
recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this  
additional channel, you can experience more dynamic and  
realistic moving sound especially with scenes with  
"flyover" and "fly-around" effects.  
■ Dolby Pro Logic II  
Dolby Pro Logic II is an improved technique used to  
decode vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround  
software. This new technology enables a discrete 5-  
channel playback with 2 front left and right channels, 1  
center channel, and 2 surround left and right channels  
(instead of only 1 surround channel for conventional Pro  
Logic technology). The Music and Game modes are also  
available for 2-channel sources in addition to the movie  
mode.

■ THX Cinema processing  
■ THX Select  
THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies  
established by the world-renowned film production  
company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX grew from George Lucas’  
personal desire to make your experience of the film  
soundtrack, in both movie theatres and in your home  
theatre, as faithful as possible to what the director  
intended.  
Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theatres  
called dubbing stages and are designed to be played back  
in movie theatres with similar equipment and conditions.  
This same soundtrack is then transferred directly onto  
Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is not changed for  
playback in a small home theatre environment.  
THX engineers developed patented technologies to  
accurately translate the sound from the movie theatre  
environment into the home, correcting the tonal and  
spatial errors that occur. On this product, when the THX  
indicator is on, THX features are automatically added in  
Cinema modes (e.g. THX Cinema, THX Surround EX).  
Before any home theatre component can be THX Select  
certified, it must incorporate all the features above and  
also pass a rigorous series of quality and performance  
tests. Only then can a product feature the THX Select  
logo, which is your guarantee that the Home Theatre  
products you purchase will give you superb performance  
for many years to come. THX Select requirements cover  
every aspect of the product including power amplifier and  
pre-amplifier performance and operation, and hundreds of  
other parameters in both the digital and analog domain.  
■ THX Surround EX  
THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint  
development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX Ltd.  
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been  
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are  
able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added  
during the mixing of the program. This channel, called  
Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in  
addition to the currently available front left, front center,  
front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer  
channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity  
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings  
more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization  
than ever before.  
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital  
Surround EX technology, when released into the home  
consumer market may exhibit wording to that effect on the  
packaging. A list of movies created using this technology  
can be found on the Dolby web site at www.dolby.com. A  
list of available DVD software titles encoded with this  
technology can be found at www.thx.com.  
Only receiver and controller products bearing the THX  
Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX mode,  
faithfully reproduce this new technology in the home.  
This product may also engage the THX Surround EX  
mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material that is  
not Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded. In such case the  
information delivered to the Surround Back channel will  
be program dependent and may or may not be very  
pleasing depending on the particular soundtrack and the  
tastes of the individual listener.  
■ Re-Equalization  
The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively  
bright and harsh when played back over audio equipment  
in the home because film soundtracks were designed to be  
played back in large movie theatres using very different  
professional equipment. Re-Equalization restores the  
correct tonal balance for watching a movie soundtrack in a  
small home environment.  
■ Timbre Matching  
The human ear changes our perception of a sound  
depending on the direction from which the sound is  
coming. In a movie theatre, there is an array of surround  
speakers so that the surround information is all around  
you. In a home theatre, you use only two speakers located  
to the side of your head. The Timbre Matching feature  
filters the information going to the surround speakers so  
that they more closely match the tonal characteristics of  
the sound coming from the front speakers. This ensures  
seamless panning between the front and surround  
speakers.  
■ Adaptive Decorrelation  
In a movie theatre, a large number of surround speakers  
help create an enveloping surround sound experience, but  
in a home theatre there are usually only two speakers. This  
can make the surround speakers sound like headphones  
that lack spaciousness and envelopment. The surround  
sounds will also collapse into the closest speaker as you  
move away from the middle seating position. Adaptive  
Decorrelation slightly changes one surround channel's  
time and phase relationship with respect to the other  
surround channel. This expands the listening position and  
creates--with only two speakers--the same spacious  
surround experience as in a movie theatre.  
■ CINEMA DSP  
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.

GLOSSARY  
■ SILENT CINEMA  
YAMAHA has developed a natural, realistic sound effect  
DSP algorithm for headphones.  
Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound  
field so that accurate representations of all the sound field  
programs can be enjoyed on headphones.  
■ S VIDEO signal  
With the S VIDEO signal system, the video signal  
normally transmitted using a pin cable is separated and  
transmitted as the Y signal for the luminance and the C  
signal for the chrominance through the S VIDEO cable.  
Using the S VIDEO jack eliminates video signal  
transmission loss and allows recording and playback of  
even more beautiful images.  
■ Virtual CINEMA DSP  
YAMAHA has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP  
algorithm that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field  
surround effects even without any surround speakers by  
using virtual surround speakers.  
It is even possible to enjoy Virtual CINEMA DSP using a  
minimal two-speaker system that does not include a center  
speaker.  
■ Component video signal  
With the component video signal system, the video signal  
is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the PB  
and PR signals for the chrominance. Color can be  
reproduced more faithfully with this system because each  
of these signals is independent. The component signal is  
also called the “color difference signal” because the  
luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal.  
A monitor with component input jacks is required in order  
to use the component signal for output.  
■ PCM (Linear PCM)  
Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog  
audio signal is digitized, recorded and transmitted without  
using any compression. This is used as a method of  
recording CDs and DVD audio. The PCM system uses a  
technique for sampling the size of the analog signal per  
very small unit of time. Standing for “pulse code  
modulation”, the analog signal is encoded as pulses and  
then modulated for recording.  
■ Sampling frequency and number of  
quantized bits  
When digitizing an analog audio signal, the number of  
times the signal is sampled per second is called the  
sampling frequency, while the degree of fineness when  
converting the sound level into a numeric value is called  
the number of quantized bits.  
The range of rates that can be played back is determined  
based on the sampling rate, while the dynamic range  
representing the sound level difference is determined by  
the number of quantized bits. In principle, the higher the  
sampling frequency, the wider the range of frequencies  
that can be played back, and the higher the number of  
quantized bits, the more finely the sound level can be  
reproduced.  
■ ITU-R  
ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU  
(International Telecommunication Union). ITU-R  
recommends a standard speaker placement which is used  
in many critical listening rooms, especially for mastering  
purposes.  
■ Composite Video signal  
With the composite video signal system, the video signal  
is composed of three basic elements of a video picture;  
color, brightness and synchronization data. A composite  
video jack on a video component transmits these three  
elements combined.
