This unit creates a sound field by reflecting sound beams on the walls of your listening room and broadening the
cohesion between speaker channels. Just as you would arrange the speaker position of other audio systems, you need to
set the beam angle to enjoy the best possible sound from this unit.
This unit employs the beam optimization feature and the YAMAHA Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO)
technology with the aid of the supplied optimizer microphone, allowing you to avoid troublesome listening-based
speaker setup and achieving highly accurate sound adjustments that best match your listening environment.
The beam optimization is the automated feature of BASIC SETUP, which creates the best possible surround sound fiekt
without manually setting the parameters for your listening room.
The YAMAHA Parametric Room Aconstic Optimizer (YPAO) technology performs the following checks and
automatically makes appropriate sound adjustments.
DISTANCE:
Checks the phase and the distance of each beam from this unit and adjusts the delay of each channel so that each sound
beam reaches the listening position at the same time.
EQUALIZING:
Adjusts frequency and levels of each channel's parametric equalizer to reduce coloration across the channels and create a
cohesive sound field. 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 output level of each channel.
This unit performs a series of checks to optimize the beam angle, delay, volume and quality. You can choose to optimize
all or part of the parameters.

environment. Follow the procedure below to connect the optimizer microphone to this unit and make sure that the
optimizer microphone is placed in a proper location and that there are no large obstacles between the optimizer
microphone and the walls in your listening room.
• Alter you have completed the AUTO SETUP procedure, be sure to disconnect the optimizer microphone.
• The optimizer microphone is sensitive to heat.
Keep it away li+omdirect sunlight+
Do not place it on top of this unit+
• Do not connect the optimizer microphone to an extension cable as doing so may result in an inaccurate sound optimization.
• An error may occur during the AUTO SETUP procedure if the optimizer microphone is not properly placed in your listening room. To
avoid the possibility of an error:
Do not place the optimizer microphone to the extrmne right or lelt l?om the center of this unit.
Do not place the optimizer microphone within 2 m from the front of this unit.
Do not place the optimizer microphone more than 1 m from the center height of this unit.
• Make sure that there are no obstacles bep,veen the optimizer microphone and the walls in your listening room as these objects obstruct
the path of sound beams. However, any ohjects that are in contact with the walls will be regarded as a protruding part of the walls.
• The best possible results are achieved if the optimizer microphone is placed at the same height as your ears would be when you are
seated in your listening position. However. if this is not possible, you can manually fine-tune the sound beam angle and balance the
sound beam output levels using MANUAL SETUP (see page 63) once the AUTO SETUP procedure is completed.
• If a subwoofer with a@lstable volume and crossover/high cut frequency controls is connected to this unit. set the volume between 9
and 12 o'clock as viewed on a conventional clocklace and set the crossover/high cut frequency to the maximum.

This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multi-channel playback from
stereo or nmlti-channel sources. This unit is also equipped with a YAMAHA CINEMA DSP (digital sound field
processing) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience. Most
of the sound field programs are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments t_unct in famous concert halls,
music venues and movie theaters.
The YAMAHA CINEMA DSP modes are compatible with all Dolby Digital. DTS and Dolby Surround sources.
Choose a sound field progr:un based on your listening preference and do not purely rely on the name of the sound field program itself.
A significant factor that creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument are the multiple reflections from the walls of the
room. In addition to nmking the sound live, these reflections enable the listener to tell where the player is situated as well
as the size and shape of the room in which the listening is sitting.
• Elements of a sound field
In any environment, there are two distinct types of sound reflections that combine with the direct sound coming straight
to our ears from the player's instrument to make up the sound field.
Early reflections
Reflected sounds reach onr ears extremely rapidly (50 ms to 100 ms after the direct sound) after reflecting from one
surface only (l_om the ceiling or a wall, for example). Early reflections help add clarity to the direct sound.
Reverberations
These are caused by reflections from more than one surface (i.e. wall, ceiling, tile back of the room, etc.) so numerous
that they merge together to form a continuous sonic afterglow. They are non-directional and lessen the clarity of the direct
sonnd.
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 yon 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 a listening room of virtually any size at all. This ability to create sound fields at will is exactly what
YAMAHA has clone with the CINEMA DSP technology.
49
You can select from three different sound field programs
(MUSIC, MOVIE and SPORTS) depending on the type of
sources you want to enjoy.
• The CINEMA DSP programs are not available if the stereo
mode (see page 42) or the target mode (see page 43) is selected

• Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives
you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3
front channels Cleft, center, and right), and 2 surronnd
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 maximunl to minimmn
volume) reproduced by the 5 fnll-range channels and the
precise sound orientation generated using digital sound
processing provide listeners with previously nnheard of
excitement and realism.
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up
to a 5. l-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 nnmbers 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). Music and Game modes are also available for
2-channel sources in addition to the Movie mode.
• Dolby Surround
Dolby Surround uses a 4 channel analog recording system
to reproduce realistic and dynanfic sound effects: 2 front
left and right channels (stereo), a center channel t_r dialog
0nonanral), and a surround channel for special sound
effects (monaural). The surround channel reproduces
sound within a narrow t_equency 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 volnme on each channel to
enhance moving sound effects and directionality.
• DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
Digital Surround
DTS digital surround "a,as developed to rephtce tire 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 prodnces
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. l-
channels). The unit incorporates a DTS-ES decoder that
enables 6.1- channel reprodnction by adding the surround
back channel to existing 5. l-channel format.
• Neo:6
Neo:6 decodes tire 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.
• PCM (Linear PCM)
Linear PCM is a signal t_rmat under which an analog
audio signal is digitized, recorded and transnfitted 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.
• LFE 0.1 channel
This channel is for the reproduction of low bass signals.
The t?equency 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 fnll-r:mge
reproduced by the other 5/6 channels in Dolby Digital or
DTS 5.1/6. l-channel systems.
