CONNECTIONS

This unit uses acoustic field effects and sound decoders to bring you the impact of a real movie theater or concert hall. These effects will be brought to you with ideal speaker positioning and

connections in your listening environment.

Speaker channels and functions

■

Front left and right speakers

The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds (stereo sound) and effect sounds.

Front speaker layout:

Place these speakers at an equal distance from the ideal listening position in the front of the room.

When using a projector screen, the appropriate top positions of the speakers are about 1/4 of the screen

from the bottom.

■

Center speaker

The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.).

Center speaker layout:

Place it halfway between the left and right speakers. When using a TV, place the speaker just above or

just under the center of the TV with the front surfaces of the TV and the speaker aligned.

When using a screen, place it just under the center of the screen.

■

Surround left and right speakers

The surround speakers are for effect and vocal sounds with the 5.1-channel speakers providing rear-

area sounds.

Surround speaker layout:

Place the speakers at the rear of the room on the left and right sides facing the listening position. They

should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position and with the speaker

tops at a height of 1.5 – 1.8 m from the floor.

■

Subwoofer

The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and low-frequency effect (LFE) sounds included in

Dolby Digital and DTS. Use a subwoofer that is equipped with an internal amplifier.

Subwoofer speaker layout:

Place it exterior to the front left and right speakers facing slightly inward to reduce echoes from the

wall.

Connecting speakers

Connect your speakers to their respective terminals on the rear panel.

• Connect at least two speakers (front left and right).

• If you cannot connect all five speakers, give priority to the surround speakers.

• The surround speakers should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position.

■ CRT monitors

We recommend that you use magnetically shielded speakers to avoid video distortion, especially for

the front and center speakers near the screen.

If your screen still gets interference from magnetically shielded speakers, move the speakers farther

away from your TV.

CAUTION

• Remove the AC power cord of this unit from the power outlet before connecting the speakers.

• Generally speaker cables consist of two parallel insulated cables. One of these cables is a different

color, or has a line running along it, to indicate different polarity. Insert the different colored (or lined)

cable into the “+” (positive, red) terminal on this unit and the speakers, and the other cable into the “-”

(minus, black) terminal.

• Be careful that the core of the speaker cable does not touch anything or come into contact with the metal

areas of this unit. This may damage this unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit,

“CHECK SP WIRES!” will appear on the front panel display when this unit is switched on.

This sound field is suitable when listening to music sources such as CDs.

in the table indicates the sound field program for CINEMA DSP.

Standard This program creates a sound field emphasizing the surround feeling without disturbing the

original acoustic positioning of multi-channel audio such as Dolby Digital and DTS. It has

been designed with the concept of an ideal movie theater, in which the audience is

surrounded by beautiful reverberations from the left, right and rear.

Spectacle This program represents the spectacular feeling of large-scale movie productions. It

reproduces a broad theater sound field that matches cinemascope and wider-screen movies

with an excellent dynamic range providing everything from very small sound effects to

large, impressive sounds.

Sci-Fi This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the latest science

fiction and special effects-featuring movies. You can enjoy a variety of cinematographically

created virtual spaces reproduced with clear separation between dialog, sound effects and

background music.

Adventure This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of action and adventure

movies. The sound field restrains reverberations but puts emphasis on reproducing a

powerful space expanded widely to the left and right. The reproduced depth is also

restrained relatively to ensure the separation between audio channels and the clarity of the

sound.

Drama This sound field features stable reverberations that match a wide range of movie genres from

serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest but offer an

optimum 3D feeling, reproducing effects tones and background music softly but cubically

around clear words and center positioning in a way that does not fatigue the listener even

after long hours of viewing.

Mono Movie This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources such as a classic movie in

an atmosphere of a good old movie theater. The program produces the optimum expansion

and reverberation to the original audio to create a comfortable space with a certain sound

depth.

Sports This program allows the listeners to enjoy stereo sport broadcasts and studio variety

programs with enriched live feeling. In sports broadcasts, the voices of the commentator and

sportscaster are positioned clearly at the center while the atmosphere of the stadium expands

in an optimal space to offer the listeners a feeling of presence in the stadium.

Action Game This sound field is suitable for action games such as car racing and FPS games. It uses

reflection data that limits the effects range per channel in order to offer a powerful playing

environment that makes the listener feel as if they are right there by enhancing various

effects tones while maintaining a clear sense of directions.

Roleplaying Game This sound field is suitable for role-playing and adventure games. It combines the sound

field effects for movies and the sound field designs for “Action Game” to represent the depth

and 3D feeling of the field during play, while offering movie-like surround effects in the

movie scenes in the game.

Hall in Munich This sound field simulates a concert hall with approximately 2500 seats in Munich, using

stylish wood for the interior finishing as normal standards for European concert halls. Fine,

beautiful reverberations spread richly, creating a calming atmosphere. The listener’s virtual

seat is at the center left of the arena.

Hall in Vienna This is an approximately 1700-seat, middle-sized concert hall with a shoebox shape that is

traditional in Vienna. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections from

all around the audience, producing a very full, rich sound.

Chamber This program creates a relatively wide space with a high ceiling like an audience hall in a

palace. It offers pleasant reverberations that are suitable for courtly music and chamber

music.

Cellar Club This program simulates a live house with a low ceiling and homey atmosphere. A realistic,

live sound field features powerful sound as if the listener is in a row in front of a small stage.

The Roxy Theatre This is the sound field of a rock music live house in Los Angeles, with approximately 460

seats. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the hall.

The Bottom Line This is the sound field at stage front in The Bottom Line, a famous New York jazz club once.

The floor can seat 300 people to the left and right in a sound field offering real and vibrant

sound.

Music Video This sound field offers an image of a concert hall for live performance of pop, rock and jazz

music. The listener can indulge oneself in a hot live space thanks to the presence sound field

that emphasizes the vividness of vocals and solo play and the beat of rhythm instruments,

and to the surround sound field that reproduces the space of a big live hall.

Audio information

Audio and video synchronization (lip sync)

Lip sync, an abbreviation for lip synchronization, is a technical term that

involves both a problem, and the capability of maintaining audio and video

signals synchronized during post-production and transmission.

Whereas the audio and video latency requires complex end-user

adjustment, HDMI version 1.3 incorporates an automatic audio and video

syncing capability that allows devices to perform this synchronization

automatically and accurately without user interaction.

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives you completely

independent multi-channel audio. With 3 front channels (front L/R and

center), and 2 surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range

audio channels. With an additional channel especially for bass effects,

referred to as 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

environments are possible than with Dolby Surround. The wide dynamic

range from maximum to minimum volumes that are reproduced by the 5

full-range channels, and the precise sound orientation generated using

digital sound processing provides listeners with unprecedented excitement

and realism. 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 sources. 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. There are three modes available:

“Music mode” for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources, and

“Game mode” for game sources.

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, as well as in many TV and cable broadcasts.

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.

DTS Digital Surround

DTS Digital Surround was developed to replace the analog soundtracks of

movies with a 5.1-channel digital sound track, and is now rapidly gaining

popularity in movie theaters around the world. DTS, 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 5.1-channel sound (technically, left,

right and center channels, 2 surround channels, plus an LFE 0.1 channel as

a subwoofer, for a total of 5.1-channels).

DSD

Direct Stream Digital (DSD) technology stores audio signals on digital

storage media, such as Super Audio CDs. Using DSD, signals are stored as

single bit values at a high-frequency sampling rate of 2.8224 MHz, while

noise shaping and oversampling are used to reduce distortion, a common

occurrence with very high quantization of audio signals. Due to the high

sampling rate, better audio quality can be achieved than that offered by the

PCM format used for normal audio CDs. The frequency is equal to or

higher than 100 kHz, with a dynamic range of 120 dB. This unit can

transmit or receive DSD signals via the HDMI jack.

LFE 0.1 channel

This channel reproduces low-frequency bass signals, and has a frequency

range from 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 Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1-channel systems.

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

accuracy 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, whereas 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 accurately the sound level can be reproduced.

Sound field program information

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 designed for acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as

room size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can differ so

widely, it is inevitable that there are differences in the sound that is heard.

Based on a wealth of actually measured data, Yamaha CINEMA DSP uses

Yamaha’s original DSP technology to combine Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby

Digital, and DTS systems to provide the audiovisual experience of a movie

theater in the listening room of your own home.

Compressed music enhancer

The Compressed music enhancer feature of this unit enhances your

listening experience by regenerating the missing harmonics in compression

artifacts. As a result, it compensates for flattened complexity due to the loss

of high-frequency fidelity as well as lack of bass due to the loss of low-

frequency bass, providing improved performance for the overall sound

system.

SILENT CINEMA

Yamaha has developed a natural, realistic sound effect DSP algorithm for

headphones. Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound field

program, so that accurate representations of all the sound field programs

can be enjoyed on headphones.

Virtual CINEMA DSP

Yamaha has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm that allows you

to enjoy DSP 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.

Video information

Component video signal

With the component video signal system, the video signal is separated into

the Y signal for luminance and the P

B and PR signals for 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 output

component signals.

Composite video signal

With the composite video signal system, the video signal comprises the

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.

Deep Color

Deep Color refers to the use of various color depths in displays, up from the

24-bit depths in previous versions of the HDMI specification. This extra bit

depth allows HDTVs and other displays increase from millions of colors to

billions of colors and eliminate on-screen color banding for smooth tonal

transitions and subtle gradations between colors. The increased contrast

ratio can represent many times more shades of gray between black and

white. Additionally, Deep Color increases the number of available colors

within the boundaries defined by the RGB or YCbCr color space.

HDMI

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry

supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. Providing an

interface between any sources (such as set-top boxes or AV receivers) and

audio/video monitors (such as digital TV), HDMI supports standard,

enhanced or high-definition video as well as multichannel digital audio

using a single cable. HDMI transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and

supports 8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to accommodate

future enhancements and requirements.

When used in combination with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content

Protection), HDMI provides a secure audio/video interface that meets the

security requirements of content providers and system operators. For

further information on HDMI, visit the HDMI website at “http://

www.hdmi.org/.”

“x.v.Color”

A color space standard supported by HDMI version 1.3. It is a more

extensive color space than sRGB, and allows the expression of colors that

were not hitherto possible. While remaining compatible with the color

gamut of sRGB standards, “x.v.Color” expands the color space, and can

thus produce more vivid, natural images. It is particularly effective for still

pictures and computer graphics.

En 8 CONNECTIONS Connecting speakers This unit uses acoustic field effects and sound decoders to bring you the impact of a real movie theater or concert hall. These effects will be brought to you with ideal speaker positioning and connections in your listening environment. ■ Surround left and right speakers Speaker channels and functions The surround speakers are for effect and vocal sounds with the 5.1-channel speakers providing reararea sounds. ■ Front left and right speakers The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds (stereo sound) and effect sounds. Ex. Ex. Front speaker layout: Place these speakers at an equal distance from the ideal listening position in the front of the room. When using a projector screen, the appropriate top positions of the speakers are about 1/4 of the screen from the bottom. ■ Center speaker Surround speaker layout: Place the speakers at the rear of the room on the left and right sides facing the listening position. They should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position and with the speaker tops at a height of 1.5 – 1.8 m from the floor. ■ Subwoofer The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and low-frequency effect (LFE) sounds included in Dolby Digital and DTS. Use a subwoofer that is equipped with an internal amplifier. The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.). Ex. Center speaker layout: Place it halfway between the left and right speakers. When using a TV, place the speaker just above or just under the center of the TV with the front surfaces of the TV and the speaker aligned. When using a screen, place it just under the center of the screen. Ex. Subwoofer speaker layout: Place it exterior to the front left and right speakers facing slightly inward to reduce echoes from the wall.

Whereas the audio and video latency requires complex end-user adjustment, HDMI version 1.3 incorporates an automatic audio and video syncing capability that allows devices to perform this synchronization automatically and accurately without user interaction. Dolby Digital Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3 front channels (front L/R and center), and 2 surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range audio channels. With an additional channel especially for bass effects, referred to as LFE (Low-Frequency Effect), the system has a total of 5.1channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel). By using 2-channel stereo for the surround speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and surround sound environments are possible than with Dolby Surround. The wide dynamic range from maximum to minimum volumes that are reproduced by the 5 full-range channels, and the precise sound orientation generated using digital sound processing provides listeners with unprecedented excitement and realism. 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 sources. 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. There are three modes available: “Music mode” for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources, and “Game mode” for game sources. Dolby Surround PCM (Linear PCM) 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, as well as in many TV and cable broadcasts. 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. 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. DTS Digital Surround DTS Digital Surround was developed to replace the analog soundtracks of movies with a 5.1-channel digital sound track, and is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie theaters around the world. DTS, 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 5.1-channel sound (technically, left, right and center channels, 2 surround channels, plus an LFE 0.1 channel as a subwoofer, for a total of 5.1-channels). 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 accuracy 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, whereas 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 accurately the sound level can be reproduced. Sound field program information DSD Direct Stream Digital (DSD) technology stores audio signals on digital storage media, such as Super Audio CDs. Using DSD, signals are stored as single bit values at a high-frequency sampling rate of 2.8224 MHz, while noise shaping and oversampling are used to reduce distortion, a common occurrence with very high quantization of audio signals. Due to the high sampling rate, better audio quality can be achieved than that offered by the PCM format used for normal audio CDs. The frequency is equal to or higher than 100 kHz, with a dynamic range of 120 dB. This unit can transmit or receive DSD signals via the HDMI jack. LFE 0.1 channel This channel reproduces low-frequency bass signals, and has a frequency range from 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 Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1-channel systems. 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 designed for acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can differ so widely, it is inevitable that there are differences in the sound that is heard. Based on a wealth of actually measured data, Yamaha CINEMA DSP uses Yamaha’s original DSP technology to combine Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital, and DTS systems to provide the audiovisual experience of a movie theater in the listening room of your own home. Compressed music enhancer The Compressed music enhancer feature of this unit enhances your listening experience by regenerating the missing harmonics in compression artifacts. As a result, it compensates for flattened complexity due to the loss of high-frequency fidelity as well as lack of bass due to the loss of lowfrequency bass, providing improved performance for the overall sound system. En 52 APPENDIX Glossary SILENT CINEMA HDMI Yamaha has developed a natural, realistic sound effect DSP algorithm for headphones. Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound field program, so that accurate representations of all the sound field programs can be enjoyed on headphones. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. Providing an interface between any sources (such as set-top boxes or AV receivers) and audio/video monitors (such as digital TV), HDMI supports standard, enhanced or high-definition video as well as multichannel digital audio using a single cable. HDMI transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements. When used in combination with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), HDMI provides a secure audio/video interface that meets the security requirements of content providers and system operators. For further information on HDMI, visit the HDMI website at “http:// www.hdmi.org/.” Virtual CINEMA DSP Yamaha has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm that allows you to enjoy DSP 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. Video information “x.v.Color” Component video signal With the component video signal system, the video signal is separated into the Y signal for luminance and the PB and PR signals for 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 output component signals. A color space standard supported by HDMI version 1.3. It is a more extensive color space than sRGB, and allows the expression of colors that were not hitherto possible. While remaining compatible with the color gamut of sRGB standards, “x.v.Color” expands the color space, and can thus produce more vivid, natural images. It is particularly effective for still pictures and computer graphics. Composite video signal With the composite video signal system, the video signal comprises the 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. Deep Color Deep Color refers to the use of various color depths in displays, up from the 24-bit depths in previous versions of the HDMI specification. This extra bit depth allows HDTVs and other displays increase from millions of colors to billions of colors and eliminate on-screen color banding for smooth tonal transitions and subtle gradations between colors. The increased contrast ratio can represent many times more shades of gray between black and white. Additionally, Deep Color increases the number of available colors within the boundaries defined by the RGB or YCbCr color space.
