CONNECTIONS  
I Connecting to digital jacks  
Before connecting components  
This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of  
digital signals through either a coaxial or fiber optic  
cable. You can use the digital jacks to input PCM, Dolby  
Digital and DTS bitstreams. Use digital connections if  
you wish to enjoy the multi-channel sound track of DVD  
material, etc. with DSP effects. Both digital input jacks  
are acceptable for 96 kHz sampling digital signals.  
CAUTION

mains power until all connections between the  
components have been completed.  
Note  
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel  
(R), +(red) and “–” (black) properly. Some  
components require different connection methods and  
have different jack names. Refer to the operation  
instructions for each component you wish to connect to  
this unit.  
After you have completed all connections, check them  
again to make sure they are correct.  
The jack names correspond to the names on the input

Subwoofer  
Connecting the speakers  
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

1.8 m (6 ft)  
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.  
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.  
Surround speakers (SR and SL)  
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround  
sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening  
position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m (6 ft) above  
the floor.

CONNECTIONS  
I Speaker connections  
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.  
Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the power of this unit is off.  
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could  
damage this unit and/or speakers.  
Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place  
the speakers away from the monitor.  
Connecting to the FRONT A SPEAKERS terminals  
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped differently,  
perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridges. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the +(red) terminals on this unit  
and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals.

with your SPEAKER SET selections.  
Notes  
The cut-off frequency of the SUBWOOFER jack is 90 Hz.  
If you do not use a subwoofer, allocate the signals to the front left and right speakers by changing the setting of SOUND 1

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. 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 and fully encompass the listener.  
HiFi DSP programs  
The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the sound field programs. Keep  
in mind that most of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments.

CINEMA DSP  
Sound design of CINEMA DSP  
Filmmakers intend for 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 a surround sound field. It recreates comprehensive movie sound design in your audio room. In  
CINEMA DSP sound field programs, YAMAHAs exclusive DSP processing is added to the Front left and right, 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.

for multi-channel sources and Dolby Digital + Matrix 6.1 or DTS + Matrix 6.1 decoder for adding a surround back  
channel (the surround back channel is outputted from virtual surround back speaker). You can select CINEMA DSP  
programs to optimize these decoders and the DSP sound patterns depending on the input source.

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.

Straight Decode  
Enhanced Mode  
The built-in decoder reproduces source sounds and sound-effects precisely.  
No DSP effect is applied in this program.  
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 orienta-  
tion.  
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.  
Straight Decode  
This unit is equipped with various precise decoders;  
Dolby Digital/DTS decoder for multi-channel reproduction of the original sound  
Dolby Pro Logic/Pro Logic II decoder for multi-channel reproduction of 2-channel sources  
Select any of the Straight Decode modes in Program No. 9 (except for the sub-program Enhanced) as shown in the  
above list 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.  
Note  
When playing a monaural source with a CINEMA DSP program, the source signal is directed to the center channel, and the front  
and surround speakers output effect sounds.

SOUND 3 LFE LEVEL  
Use to adjust the output level of the LFE (low-frequency  
effect) channel according to the capacity of your  
subwoofer or headphones. The LFE channel carries low-  
frequency special effects which are only added to certain  
scenes. This setting is effective only when this unit  
decodes Dolby Digital or DTS signals.  
Use this feature to manually input the distance of each  
speaker and adjust the delay applied to respective  
channel. Ideally, each speaker should be the same  
distance from the main listening position. However, this is

amount of delay must be applied to the sound from each  
speaker so that all sound will arrive at the listening  
position at the same time.

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS  
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  
Function:  
This parameter adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range.  
Depending on the acoustics of your listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP  
effect level relative to the level of the direct sound.  
Description:  
Control Range: 6 dB to +3 dB  
I 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.  
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.  
Description:  
Control range: 1 99 msec

GLOSSARY  
CINEMA DSP  
DTS (Digital Theater Systems) Digital  
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.  
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).  
Dolby Digital  
ITU-R  
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).  
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.  
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 channels in a Dolby Digital or  
DTS 5.1 channel systems.  
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.  
Matrix 6.1  
The unit incorporates Matrix 6.1 decoder for Dolby  
Digital and DTS multi-channel software that enables 6.1-  
channel reproduction by adding the surround back  
channel to existing 5.1-channel format. (The surround  
back channel is created from surround left and right  
channels, and outputted from virtual surround back  
speaker.) With this additional channel, you can experience  
more dynamic and realistic moving sound especially with  
scenes with “fly-over ” and “fly-around ” effects.  
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up  
to a 5.1-channel configuration can be freely selected for  
your enjoyment.  
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). A music mode is also available for 2-  
channel sources in addition to the movie mode.  
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.  
Dolby Surround  
Dolby Surround uses a 4 channel analog recording system  
to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front  
left and right channels (stereo), a center channel for  
dialog (monaural), and a surround channel for special  
sound effects (monaural). The surround channel  
reproduces sound within a narrow frequency range.  
Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes  
and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as  
well. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit  
employs a digital signal processing system that  
automatically stabilizes the volume on each channel to  
enhance moving sound effects and directionality.

GLOSSARY  
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.  
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 using headphones.  
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 2-speaker system that does not include a center  
speaker.
