A Living Tradition in Sound

A piano comes into this world through the perfect synergy of advanced technical skill and artistry. Such a piano can create sound that truly reflects the player’s feelings.

The final stage in piano production is called “voicing”. It is here that the instrument is given its soul.

A highly skilled expert concentrates his mind and sensitivity on the sound of each key, finely adjusting the dynamic feel of the hammers, bringing the tone and vibrancy of all 88 keys together perfectly; a truly stunning achievement. It is a quality of sound that can only be determined by an astute, sensitive ear. We apply this very same concept to the manufacture of our audio products. The technician performs exhaustive listening tests and every component is considered, in order to finally achieve the ideal sound.

Yamaha’s tradition of audio quality stretches back over 125 years, and continues to live on in all Yamaha products today.

Controls and functions

■ Program playback

In the program playback mode, you can play back tracks in a programmed sequence.

Notes

• This operation is ineffective for MP3 or WMA discs.

• The programmed tracks are erased in the following cases: – when the disc is ejected – when this unit is turned off or goes to STANDBY mode – when an audio source other than the disc is selected – when the playback layer of a hybrid Super Audio CD is

switched between SA-CD and CD

1 Press PROGRAM while playback is stopped.

This unit is set to the program editing mode.

2 Select a track by using the numeric buttons

and press ENTER.

3 Repeat step 2 to program the next track.

You can program up to 24 tracks.

4 Press the p (Play) key.

Playback starts from the beginning of the programmed sequence.

■ Setting the DPLL (Digital Phased Lock Loop) bandwidth

The audio DAC (ES9018) of this unit employs DPLL to generate accurate clock signals synchronized with the clock of the input digital audio signal. The 7-step DPLL bandwidth setting gives the unit tolerance for fluctuation of the clock of the input digital signal and adjustment of the accuracy of the operating clock in the DAC.

1 Press SOURCE to select the audio source to

be played back.

The DPLL bandwidth can be set for each audio source, respectively.

2 Within 5 seconds after selecting the audio

source, press ENTER.

The unit enters the setting mode, and the DPLL bandwidth currently set appears on the information display.

3 Select the DPLL bandwidth using the

(pause) key and the (stop) key.

Each time the (pause) key is pressed, the bandwidth changes in the following order. If you press the (stop) key, it changes in reverse order.

14 En

(default)

4 Press ENTER.

The setting value flashes for 3 seconds, then the unit resumes to normal mode. To cancel the setting, press CLEAR.

Notes

• As the DPLL bandwidth setting value approaches “Lowest,” the accuracy of the operating clock in the DAC improves, but the unit may be susceptible to a change in the clock of the external component. The sound from such a component may more easily skips.

• As the DPLL bandwidth setting value approaches “Highest,” the accuracy of the operating clock in the DAC deteriorates, but the unit is far less susceptible to a change in the clock of the external component, and the sound from such a component hardly skips.

■ Setting the AUTO POWER STANDBY function

The AUTO POWER STANDBY function can be set to ON or OFF. When set to ON, if the unit is not operated for 30 minutes with no audio signal detected, it automatically goes to STANDBY mode. When set to OFF, the unit does not go to STANDBY mode automatically.

1 Open the disc tray and remove any currently-

loaded disc from the unit.

Skip step 1 to 3 if “NO DISC” appears on the information display.

2 Close the disc tray.

3 Press SOURCE to select “DISC” as the audio

source.

“NO DISC” appears on the information display.

4 Press and hold the (Stop) key or (Play)

key on the front panel for about 2 seconds to switch the setting.

(Stop) key: The AUTO POWER STANDBY

function switches to ON, and “AutoSTBY ON” appears on the information display.

(Play) key: The AUTO POWER STANDBY

function switches to OFF, and “AutoSTBY OFF” appears on the information display.

Notes

• The default setting for the AUTO POWER STANDBY function

is ON.

• This setting is retained even if you turn off this unit.
