PROFILE OF THIS UNIT

This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your listening room. This unit has a total of 10 digital sound field processor (DSP) modes. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field

(this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments.

In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder and Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video sources.

The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital

(AC-3) decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding

DSP program including combined operations of the Yamaha

DSP and the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder.

Digital Sound Field Processing

What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to the sound of a live performance, but chances are you’ll still notice something missing, the acoustic environment of the live concert hall. Extensive research into the exact nature of the sonic reflections that create the ambience of a large hall has made it possible for Yamaha engineers to bring you this same sound in your own listening room, so you’ll feel all the sound of a live concert.

Dolby Pro Logic Surround

This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby

Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro

Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro

Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel (used for dialog), and the rear surround sound channels (used for sound effects, background noise, and other ambient noises). The center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from the action on the screen while experiencing good stereo imaging.

Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated measuring equipment, have even made it possible to capture the acoustics of a variety of actual concert halls, jazz clubs, theaters, etc. from around the world, to allow you to accurately recreate any one of these live performance environments, all in your own home.

Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of pre-recorded video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable broadcasts. When you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder decodes the signal and distributes the surround-sound effects.

This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital signal processing system. This system improves the stability of sound at each channel and crosstalk between channels, so that positioning of sounds around the room is more accurate compared with conventional analog signal processing systems.

In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance control. This always assures you the best performance without manual adjustment.

Dolby Digital (AC-3)

The built-in Dolby Digital (AC-3) Decoder leads you into a totally new sound experiences.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) is a new generation of multi-channel digital audio technology, or the newest spatial sound processing format developed for 35 mm film-movies by employing a new kind of low bit-rate audio coding.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) is a digital surround sound system that provides completely independent multi-channel audio to consumers. In multi-channel form, Dolby Digital (AC-3) provides five full range channels in what is sometimes referred to as a “3/2” configuration: three front channels (left, center and right), plus two surround channels. A sixth bass-only effect channel is also provided for output of LFE (low frequency effect), or low bass effects that are independent of other channels. This channel is counted as 0.1, thus giving rise to the term 5.1 channels in total.

Compared to Dolby Pro Logic that is referred to a “3/1” system

(left front, center, right front and just one surround channel),

Dolby Digital (AC-3) features two surround channels, called stereo or split surrounds, each offering the same full range fidelity as the three front channels.

Sound of wide dynamic range reproduced by the five full range channels presents listeners much excitement that has never been experienced before. Precise sound orientation by the discrete digital sound processing expands realism that the original movie possesses.

Laser Disc and DVD are home audio formats that could benefit from Dolby Digital (AC-3). In the near future, Dolby Digital (AC-

3) will also be applied to DBS, CATV and HDTV. The ongoing release of Dolby Stereo Digital theatrical films now underway will provide an immediate source of Dolby Digital (AC-3) encoded video software.

Dynamic range (sound scale) of source can be changed so that it will be suitable for the listening conditions.

Output of low bass from any channel can be assigned to either the MAIN SPEAKERS terminals or

SUBWOOFER terminal to maximize system performance.

Output of LFE can be assigned to either the MAIN

SPEAKERS terminals or SUBWOOFER terminal to maximize system performance.

Dolby Surround + DSP (CINEMA DSP)

Dolby Surround sound system shows its full ability in a large movie theater, because movie sounds are originally designed to be reproduced in a large movie theater using many speakers. It is difficult to create a sound environment similar to that of a movie theater in your listening room, because the room size, materials of inside walls, the number of speakers, etc. of your listening room is much different from those of a movie theater.

Dolby Pro Logic + 2 Digital Sound Fields

Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the rear surround side of the Dolby Pro Logic Surrounddecoded sound field respectively. They create a wide acoustic environment and emphasize surround-effect in the room, letting you feel much presence as if you are watching a movie in a popular Dolby Stereo theater.

This combination is available when the sound field program

No. 2, No. 3 or No. 4 is selected, and the input signal of source is analog, PCM audio or encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) in 2-channels.

Yamaha DSP technology made it possible to present you with nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in your listening room by compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your listening room with its original digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround sound field.

CINEMA DSP

The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those programs are created by the combination of Dolby Surround and

YAMAHA DSP technology.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) + 3 Digital Sound Fields

Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the independent left and right surround sides of the Dolby

Digital (AC-3)-decoded sound field respectively. They create a wide acoustic environment and much surround effect in the room without losing high channel separation.

With wide dynamic range of Dolby Digital (AC-3) sound, this sound field combination lets you feel as if you are watching a movie in the newest Dolby Stereo Digital theater. This will be the most ideal home theater sound at the present time.

This combination is available when the sound field program

No. 2, No. 3 or No. 4 is selected, and the input signal of source is encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) (except in

2-channels).

SPEAKER SETUP

SPEAKERS TO BE USED

This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5 speaker configuration, using main speakers, rear speakers and a center speaker.

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.). 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.

The main speakers should be high performance models and have enough power handling capacity to accept the maximum output of your audio system.

Other speakers do not have to be equal to the main speakers.

For precise sound localization, however, it is ideal to use high performance models that can reproduce sounds in full range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.

Use of a subwoofer expands your sound field

It is also possible to further expand your system with the addition of a subwoofer and amplifier. 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) sound with high fidelity when playing back a source with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded. You may wish to choose the convenience of a Yamaha Active Servo Processing

Subwoofer System, which has its own built-in power amplifier.

SPEAKER CONFIGURATION

Notes on connecting with an LD player equipped with an AC-3 RF output

If your LD player has AC-3 RF signal output terminal and no digital signal output terminal for AC-3 discrete audio signals, connect the AC-3 RF signal output terminal to this unit’s

OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) digital signal input terminal by using an RF demodulator (separate purchase).

First, connect the AC-3 RF signal output terminal of the LD player to the AC-3 RF signal input terminal of the RF demodulator. Next, connect the optical (or coaxial) digital signal output terminal of the RF demodulator to the OPTICAL

(or COAXIAL) digital signal input terminal of this unit.

This connection is necessary for sending audio signals encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) from the LD player to this unit.

It is also necessary to connect the LD player to this unit’s analog audio signal input terminals regardless of the AC-3 RF signal connection, for playing back an LD source with the

Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoded or in normal stereo (or monaural).

If desired, you can also connect the digital signal output terminal (for 2-channel audio signals) of the LD player to this unit. If you will do so, connect it to the COAXIAL digital signal input terminal of this unit, and connect the RF demodulator to the OPTICAL digital signal input terminal of this unit.

By this connection, if the input mode of the DVD/LD source is in “AUTO”, you can enjoy listening to sounds with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) decoded when you play a disc encoded with the

Dolby Digital (AC-3) though signals are input to both OPTICAL and COAXIAL digital signal input terminals of this unit simultaneously (because signals input to the OPTICAL terminal take priority of signals input to the COAXIAL terminal).

See page 29 for details about switching the input mode.

Notes

●

If your LD player has an OPTICAL digital output terminal

(for 2-channel audio signals), be sure not to connect it to

this unit’s OPTICAL digital input terminal. If you do so, when you play a disc encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3), the Dolby Digital (AC-3) will not be decoded because the 2channel audio signals input to this unit’s OPTICAL digital input terminal are selected prior to the signals encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) input to this unit’s COAXIAL digital input terminal by way of an RF demodulator.

●

●

If, for example, you play a CD on the LD player (which can play a CD also), there is no input to the OPTICAL terminal, so the signals input to the COAXIAL terminal take priority. In this case, switch off the RF demodulator to listen to CD sound surely. However, if your RF demodulator is the

Yamaha model APD-1, you do not have to switch it off.

When you want to play a source encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) without decoding the Dolby Digital (AC-3), you must switch off the power to the RF demodulator.

SPEAKER BALANCE ADJUSTMENT

This procedure lets you adjust the sound output level balance between the main, center, and rear speakers using the built-in test tone generator. When this adjustment is performed, the sound output level heard at the listening position will be the same from each speaker. This is important for the best performance of the digital sound field processor, the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder and the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder.

The adjustment of each speaker output level should be done at your listening position with the remote control transmitter.

Otherwise, the result may not be satisfactory.

Notes

●

Once you have completed these adjustments, you can adjust whole sound level on your audio system by using the VOLUME control (or the MASTER VOLUME keys on

●

● the remote control transmitter) only.

If you use external power amplifiers, you may also use their volume controls to achieve proper balance.

If the function “4. CENTER SPEAKER” in the SET MENU

● mode is set in the “PHNTM (phantom)” position, in step

10, the sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted. This is because in this mode, the center sound is automatically output from the left and right main speakers.

If there is insufficient sound output from the center and rear speakers, you may decrease the main speaker output level by setting the MAIN LEVEL switch on the rear panel to “–10 dB”.

DESCRIPTIONS OF THE FUNCTIONS

1. CENTER DELAY (Adjusting the delay of center sounds (dialog etc.))

Control range: 0 ms to 5 ms (in 1 ms step)

Preset value: 0 ms

* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital

(AC-3) is decoded and the signals of selected source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) contain centerchannel signals.

Adjusts the delay between the main sounds (at the main channels) and dialog etc. (at the center channel).

The larger the value, the later the dialog etc. is generated.

This is for making sounds from the left main, center and right main speakers reach your listening position at the same time by delaying the sound from the center speaker if the distance from the center speaker to your listening position is shorter than the distance from the left or right main speaker to your listening position.

2. DYNAMIC RANGE (Adjusting dynamic range)

Choices: MAX/STD/MIN

Preset position: MAX

* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital

(AC-3) is decoded.

MIN:

Dolby Digital (AC-3) technology also made it possible to reduce an original sound track’s dynamic range for a home audio format by “compressing” the data of sound.

In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) is reproduced in the “compressed” dynamic range of the source suitable for low level listening.

In this position, dynamic range is more reduced than in the STD position. Selecting this position will be effective when you must listen to a source in extremely low level.

3. LFE LEVEL (Adjusting the output level at the LFE (low frequency effect) channel)

Control range: –14 dB to 0 dB (in 2 dB step)

Preset value: 0 dB

* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital (AC-

3) is decoded and the signals of selected source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) contain LFE signals.

Adjusts the output level at the LFE (low frequency effect) channel. If the LFE signals are mixed with signals at other channels to output them from the same speakers, the ratio of

LFE signal level to the level of other signals are adjusted. (See page 6 for details about the LFE channel.)

MAX: “Dynamic range” is the difference between the maximum level and the minimum level of sounds.

Sounds on a movie originally designed for movie theaters feature very wide dynamic range.

Dolby Digital (AC-3) technology can bring the original sound track into a home audio format with this wide dynamic range unchanged.

In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby

Digital (AC-3) is reproduced in the original sound track’s wide dynamic range providing you with powerful sounds like a movie theater.

Selecting this position will be more ideal if you can listen to a source in a high output level in a room specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment.

STD (Standard):

Powerful sounds of extremely wide dynamic range are not always suitable for home use. Depending upon the condition of your listening environment, it may not be possible to increase the sound output level as high as a movie theater. However, in a level suitable for listening to in your room, the low level parts of source sound cannot be heard well because they will be lost among noises in your environment.

4. CENTER SPEAKER

5. REAR SPEAKER

6. MAIN SPEAKER

7. LFE/BASS OUT

See pages 22 to 23 for details. (Once you have selected proper modes, you do not have to make a setting change until any alteration is made in your speaker system.)

8. TV/DBS INPUT (Selecting the initial input mode of the sources connected to the TV/DBS input terminals)

For the sources connected to the TV/DBS input terminals of this unit only, you can designate the input mode that is automatically selected when the power of this unit is switched on.

AUTO: In this position, the AUTO input mode is always selected when the power of this unit is switched on.

LAST: In this position, the input mode you have selected last time is memorized and will not be changed even if the power of this unit is switched on.

*

See page 29 for details about switching the input mode.

Switching the input mode (for DVD/LD and

TV/DBS)

This unit allows you to switch the input mode only for sources connected to the DVD/LD and TV/DBS input terminals (on the rear of this unit) that input two or three types of signals to this unit.

The following two input modes are provided.

AUTO:

For the source connected to the DVD/LD input terminals:

This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the power to this unit. In this mode, input signal is automatically selected by the following order of priority.

1. Digital input signal from the OPTICAL terminal

2. Digital input signal from the COAXIAL terminal

3. Analog input signal

For the source connected to the TV/DBS input terminals:

This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the power to this unit if the “AUTO” position is selected on “8. TV/DBS INPUT” in the SET MENU mode. (For details, refer to page 27.) In this mode, input signal is automatically selected by the following order of priority.

1. Digital input signal from the COAXIAL terminal

2. Analog input signal

ANALOG:

In this mode, only analog input signal is selected even though digital signal is input at the same time.

Select this mode when you want to use the analog input signal instead of the digital input signal.

Notes on using the input selector buttons

●

Note that pressing on each input selector button selects the source which is connected to the corresponding input

● terminals on the rear panel.

* To select the source connected to the VIDEO AUX terminals on the front panel, press VIDEO AUX.

The selection of TAPE/MD MONITOR cannot be canceled

● by pressing another input selector button. To cancel it, press

TAPE/MD MONITOR again so that the “TAPE MONITOR” indicator disappears from the display.

When you select a button other than TAPE/MD MONITOR, make sure that the “TAPE MONITOR” indicator is not illuminated on the display.

If you select the input selector button for a video source without canceling the selection of TAPE/MD MONITOR, the

●

● playback result will be the video image from the video source and the sound from the audio tape (or MD etc.).

Once you play a video source, its video image will not be interrupted even if the input selector button for an audio source is selected.

When you select an input source by pressing the corresponding input selector button, the DSP program (or the state of no DSP program is used) which was used when the same input source was selected the last time will automatically recalled.

Notes on input mode selection

●

To play back a source with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded,

● set the input mode to “AUTO”.

For the TV/DBS source only, the input mode selected on the

● function “8. TV/DBS INPUT” in the SET MENU mode is selected when you turn on the power of this unit.

When you want to enjoy a source which has normal 2channel signals with a Dolby Pro Logic Surround program,

● select the ANALOG mode.

In the AUTO mode, there may be a case depending on some

LD players or DVD players that when you make a search on a source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) during the play and then the play is restored, sound output is interrupted for a moment because the digital input signal is selected again.

Notes

●

The settings of DSP and the VOLUME, BASS, TREBLE,

BALANCE controls and the BASS EXTENSION switch

● have no effect on the material being recorded.

Composite video and S video signals pass independently through this unit’s video circuits. Therefore, when recording or dubbing video signals, if your video source unit is connected

●

● to provide only a S video (or only a composite video) signal, you can record only a S video (or only a composite video) signal on your VCR.

A source that is connected to this unit between digital terminals only cannot be recorded by a tape deck or VCR connected to this unit.

Please check the copyright laws in your country to record from records, compact discs, radio, etc. Recording of copyright material may infringe copyright laws.

If you watch a video software that uses scramble or encoded signals to prevent it from being dubbed, there may be a case that display information superimposed on the picture and/or the picture itself is disturbed due to those signals.

Selecting the SPEAKER system

Because one or two speaker systems (as main speakers) can be connected to this unit, the SPEAKERS switches allow you to select speaker system A or B, or both at once.

USING DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP)

This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your listening room. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments.

In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder and a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of sources encoded with Dolby Surround. The operation of these decoders can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP program including a combined operation of the YAMAHA DSP and the Dolby Digital (AC-3) or the Dolby Pro

Logic Surround.

For details about digital sound field programs, see page 40 to 41.

If you prefer to cancel the DSP, press the EFFECT button.

The sound will be the normal 2-channel stereo without surround sound effect.

●

When a monaural sound source is played with DOLBY PRO

LOGIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED, no sound is heard from the main speakers and the rear speakers.

Sound is heard only from the center speaker. However, if the center channel mode is in PHANTOM, the main speakers output the sound of the center channel.

●

When this unit’s Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder or Dolby

Digital decoder is used, if the main-source sound is considerably altered by overadjustment of the BASS or

TREBLE control, the relationship between the center and rear channels may produce an unnatural effect.

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF

DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS

The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments. The data for these sound fields was recorded at actual locations using sophisticated sound field measurement equipment.

Note

The channel level balance between the left and right rear effect speakers may vary depending on the sound field you are listening to. This is due to the fact that most of these sound field recreations are actual acoustic environments.

When using the keys to control Yamaha components, identify them with your component’s keys. If these keys are identical, their functions will be the same. For each key function, refer to the corresponding instruction in your component’s manual.

LEARNING NEW CONTROL FUNCTIONS (When the lid is open)

This is a learning remote control transmitter. The shaded keys in the illustration shown below can be programmed to “learn” control functions from other remote control transmitters. By learning key-functions from other remote control transmitter, this unit can then be used in place of one or more other remote control transmitters, thus making operation of your various audio and video components more convenient.

Some of the “learning-capable” keys are originally empty and others have already been preset with functions to control this unit and other Yamaha components. You can store new functions to them (in place of preset functions) as desired.

* See page 50 for the learning method.

* See page 52 for clearing a learned function (or all learned functions).

Note

If the memory capacity of the remote control transmitter becomes full, no further learning is possible even if some learning-capable keys are not occupied with new functions. If, for example, you store Yamaha codes only into this remote control transmitter, up to about 20 functions can be stored. Store new functions to the learnable-capable keys which are useful for you.

According to your plan, store functions from other remote control transmitters into an empty area of those keys. (Refer to page 50 for the learning method.)

•

While playing an audio/video unit, if you want to operate another unit by using the remote control transmitter (for example, if you want to rewind a tape on your VCR while listening to a CD), you should open the lid of the remote control transmitter and use the A/B/C switch and the corresponding keys.

(If you press an input selector key with the lid closed to change the functions of the OPERATION CONTROL keys to the functions for controlling a VCR, the input of currently playing CD source is canceled.)

MACRO OPERATIONS (When the lid is closed)

“Macro” is a command which defines a sequence of several operations.

The keys shown in the illustrations below (as preset macro

keys) are also preset with macros, in addition to individual functions.

Each macro key is preset so that simply pressing it alone will carry out several functions of other keys on this remote control transmitter sequentially. (To know what key functions are sequentially carried out by pressing each preset macro key, see the next page.)

Macros can be used only when the lid is closed and the

MACRO switch is set to “SLOW” or “QUICK”. (If “OFF” is selected, no macro will function even if the lid is closed.)

Preset macro keys are originally preset with macros. If you prefer, however, you can change the contents of a macro key by storing a desired series of functions on it. You can store up to seven functions onto a macro key. (Refer to page 51 for the learning method.)

Setting the MACRO switch

OFF:

In this position, no macro will function even if the lid of remote control transmitter is closed.

QUICK: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each command is transmitted at 0.5 second intervals.

SLOW: In this position, when a macro key is pressed, each command is transmitted at 3 second intervals.

Notes

•

A key in which no function is stored will carry out no command.

•

If it occurs that this unit will not receive the second command because the internal operation of the first command takes a long time, set the MACRO switch to the “SLOW” position, or add no function or repeat the same command between the first command and the next command.

•

If you will program the power on/off switching function of TV,

VCR, etc. as part of a macro sequence, note that it switches the current mode to the other (“on” to “off”, or “off” to “on”).

For example, when you press the macro key, if the power of

TV, VCR, etc. is already on, the power will be turned off even though you may not want it to do so.

•

Once you press a macro key, this unit will not receive the command of another key (even if it is pressed) until this unit finishes carrying out all commands of the macro key. Take notice of this especially when the MACRO switch is in the

“SLOW” position.

•

Once you press a macro key, you must keep the remote control transmitter directed at the main unit’s remote control sensor until the remote control transmitter finishes transmitting all command signals of the macro key.

•

You can use the OPERATION CONTROL keys also while using the macro functions.

If this occurs, restart from step 2. However, if the lid is opened within 5 seconds, the mode before the lid was closed is restored.

There may occasionally be instances in which, due to the signal-coding and modulation employed by the other remote control transmitter, this remote control transmitter will not be able to “learn” its signals.

MAKING A NEW MACRO

A new macro can be programmed onto any preset macro key in place of preset functions. (See page 48 to know what keys are preset macro keys.) You can make as many as 13 new macro keys. A macro key can learn as many as seven functions of other keys.

Note

If you store a continuous command such as lowering of volume level, it will become a short command when it is carried out as a part of macro.
