What you can do with the unit

The unit is equipped with the various useful features.

Playing back TV audio in surround sound with a single HDMI cable connection (Audio Return Channel: ARC) (p.33)

When using an ARC-compatible TV, you only need one HDMI

cable to enable video output to the TV, audio input from the

TV, and the transmission of HDMI Control signals.

More advanced ENTERTAINMENT sound programs (p.67)

By processing front left and front right sound fields

individually, the ENTERTAINMENT sound programs are

further improved in acoustic positioning and sound

transition. These programs allow you to enjoy clearer vocal

and instrumental sounds, distinct narrations, and more

dynamic sound effects.

Providing a realistic feel and surround effect optimized for the scene of the content (SURROUND:AI) (p.66)

The AI incorporated in the DSP analyzes the scene of the

content and creates the optimal surround effect for it.

This AI instantaneously analyzes scenes by focusing on

sound elements such as “dialogue”, “background music”,

“ambient sounds” and “sound effects” as well as optimizes

the surround effect in real time.

This creates a compelling sense of realism with expressive

power beyond conventional sound field effects.

Various wireless connection methods (p.56)

The unit supports the Wi-Fi feature that allows the unit to

connect to your wireless router (access point) without a

network cable connection.

Home Audio Network with MusicCast (p.62)

The unit supports the MusicCast feature that allows you to

link a MusicCast compatible device to another device in a

different room and play them back simultaneously, or

control all MusicCast compatible devices with the dedicated

application “MusicCast CONTROLLER”.

Backlit remote control (p.18)

This unit’s backlit remote control provides excellent

visibility, making it easy to use, even in a dark room.

Additional Features (p.66)

This unit is equipped with a function for connecting speakers

wirelessly. Content being played back by this unit can be

sent to a Bluetooth device (speakers, headphones, etc.)

(p.153).

In addition, if a device that supports the MusicCast Surround

function is used, the surround speakers and subwoofer can

also be wireless. (p.155)

Time

The excitement of a concert hall and the powerful sense of being inside a movie - we all want to enjoy these experiences in our own living room. Yamaha has pursued the fulfillment of these desires

for more than 30 years, and this fulfillment has now taken shape as the Yamaha AV receivers.

What is a sound field?

We perceive sound from a voice or an instrument not only as the sounds that are heard directly

but also as the “reflected” or “reverberant” sound that has been reflected by the walls or

ceiling of the building. The character of the reflected and reverberant sound is affected by the

shape, size, and material of the building, and all of these sounds taken together are what give

us the auditory sensation of being in that specific place.

This unique acoustical character of a specific space is what we call the “sound field”.

CINEMA DSP

Yamaha has accumulated a massive amount of acoustical data by analyzing the actual sound

fields of concert halls and performance spaces around the world. “CINEMA DSP” allows this

data to be applied to create sound fields. This unit contains a wide variety of sound programs

using CINEMA DSP.

By selecting a sound program that is appropriate to the content of the playback source such as

movies, music, or games, you can maximize the acoustical effectiveness of that specific

content. (For example, a sound program designed for movies can give you the sensation of

actually being in that scene.)

CINEMA DSP HD

“CINEMA DSP HD3” is Yamaha’s flagship 3D sound field playback technology that takes full

advantage of the massive amount of acoustic reflection data included in the sound field data.

It delivers more than twice as much capability for generating acoustic reflections as

conventional CINEMA DSP 3D, in addition to high-frequency playback capability, delivering an

utterly natural and powerful spatial sound field.

High

YPAO is Yamaha original automatic calibration system to optimizing your sound and surround environment by using microphone measurement. It can be create ideal listening environment for

maximizing high sound quality contents playback by adjusting various speakers setting and the sound field automatically.

YPAO-R.S.C.

In typical home, the sound has problems such as a blurred low-frequency range or a smearing

of the acoustical sound image caused by undesirable sound reflection from the walls or ceiling.

“YPAO-R.S.C.” is technology that reduces only the unwanted reflections and produces the

acoustic perfection for your listening environment.

YPAO Volume

YPAO Volume automatically adjusts the high and low frequency levels at any volume level so

that you hear natural sounds even at low volume.

YPAO 3D measurement

The direction (angle) of front, surround and presence speakers, and the height of presence

speakers as seen from the listening position is measured, and compensation is applied to

maximize the 3D sound field effectiveness of the CINEMA DSP.

the network parameters (such as the IP address) will be assigned automatically to it. You only need to configure

the network settings if your router does not su pport DHCP or i f you want to configure the network parameters

manually (p.136).

• You can check whether the network parameters (such as IP address) are properly assigned to the unit in

“Information” (p.125) in the “Network” menu.

• Some security software installed on your PC or the firewall settings of network devices (such as a router) may

block the access of the unit to the network devices or the Internet. In these cases, configure the security

software or firewall settings appropriately.

• Each server must be connected to the same subnet as the unit.

• To use the service via the Internet, broadband connection is strongly recommended.

Preparing the wireless antenna

If you want to establish a wireless network connection and Bluetooth connection, stand the

wireless antenna up straight.

For information on how to connect the unit to a network device wirelessly, see “Connecting to

disturbing the original acoustic positioning of multichannel audio. Its design is based on the concept of the ideal movie theater, in which the audience is surrounded by beautiful reverberations from the left, right, and rear.

This program delivers the scale and grandeur of spectacular movie productions. It delivers an expansive sound space to match the cinemascope wide-screen, and boasts a broad dynamic range, providing everything from small delicate sounds to powerful loud booms.

This program clearly reproduces t he finely elaborated sound design of the latest Sci-Fi and SFX movies. You can enjoy a variety of cinematographically created virtual spaces reproduced with clear separation between dialogue, sound effects, and background music.

This program is ideal for reproducing the sound design of action and adventure movies precisely. The sound field restrains reverberations, but puts emphasis on reproducing a sensation of expansiveness on both sides, powerful space expanded widely to the left and right. The restrained depth creates a clear and powerful space, while also maintaining the articulation of the sounds and the separation of the channels.

This program features stable reverberations that match a wide range of movie genres, from serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The reverberations are modest, but suitably stereophonic. The sound effects and background music are reproduced with a gentle echo that does not impinge on the articulation of the dialogue. You’ll never get tired listening for long periods.

This program reproduces monaural video sources, such as classic movies, in an atmosphere of a good old movie theater. The program creates a pleasant space with depth, by adding breadth and the appropriate reverberation to the original audio.

This program creates a sound field that emphasizes the dynamic sound transition of 3D object audio. Its design is based on the concept of a movie theater with multi-top speakers, in which the audience is overwhelmed by the natural and powerful sound effects.

ENTERTAINMENT

Disco

This program allows listeners to enjoy the rich vividness of sport broadcasts and light entertainment programs. In sports broadcasts, the commentators’ voices are positioned clearly at the center, while the atmosphere inside the stadium is realistically conveyed by the peripheral delivery of the sounds of the fans in a suitable space.

This program is suitable for action games, such as car racing and fighting games. The reality of, and emphasis on, various effects makes the player feel like they are right in the middle of the action, allowing for greater concentration. Use this program in combination with Compressed Music Enhancer for a more dynamic and strong sound field.

This program is suitable for role-playing and adventure games. This program adds depth to the sound field for natural and realistic reproduction of background music, special effects, and dialogue from a wide variety of scenes. Use this program in combination with Compressed Music Enhancer for a clearer and more spatial sound field.

This program allows you to enjoy videos of pop, rock, and jazz concerts, as if you were there yourself. Immerse yourself in the hot concert atmosphere thanks to the vividness of the singers and solos on stage, a presence sound field that emphasizes the beat of rhythm instruments, and a surround sound field that reproduces the space of a big live hall.

This program controls the amount of reverberations at an optimum level and emphasizes the depth and clarity of human voices to offer the reverberations of an orchestra box in front the listener at the same time as providing the acoustic positioning and feeling of presence on the stage. The surround sound field is relatively moderate, but the data for concert hall effects are used to represent the inherent beauty of music. The listener will not be fatigued even after long hours of opera entertainment.

This program reproduces vocals clearly, letting you feel the spaciousness of a pavilion. Reverberation, which is somewhat delayed, reproduces the live acoustics unique to a pavilion, and helps to make concert scenes more exciting.

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a big city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by high-energy, “immediate” sound.

■ Sound programs suitable for music/stereo playback

(MUSIC)

The following sound programs are optimized for listening to music sources.

You can also select stereo playback.

CLASSICAL

This sound field simulates a concert hall with approximately 2,500 seats in

Hall in USA B

Church in Tokyo

Church in Freiburg

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.

This hall is frequently used for recording orchestral music, and is a shoe-box type concert hall with around 1,300 seats. The hall is constructed from marble, resulting in relatively flat resonance. Further, the high ceiling causes sound to reverberate for longer than usual.

This is a large shoe-box type concert hall with around 2,400 seats located in Frankfurt. This hall has a very solid, powerful sound. The listener’s virtual seat is in the center-right section on the first floor.

This is a large asymmetrical concert hall with around 2,000 seats located in downtown Stuttgart. Sound reflected off the concrete wall located to the left of listeners has a powerful presence.

This program simulates a 1,700-seat, middle-sized concert hall with a shoebox shape that is traditional in Vienna. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reverberations from all around the audience, producing a very full, rich sound.

The large, shoe box shaped hall seats about 2,200 around the circle stage. Reflections are rich and pleasing while the sound travels freely.

This is a large 2,600 seat concert hall in the United States which features a fairly traditional European design. The interior is relatively simple, in the American style. The middle and high frequencies are richly and beautifully reinforced.

This spacious arch-shaped hall has a dome ceiling and can seat 2,600. The ample resonance apparent in the sound is a feature brought about by longer than average period of reverberation. In addition to this, the reflector suspended above the stage allows listeners to experience rich sound from the direction of the stage.

The acoustic environment of an ordinary church with moderate

reverberations. The reverberation lasts 2.5 seconds. This is ideal for

reproducing church organ and choral music.

Located in the south of Germany, this grand, stone-built church has a pointed tower at 120 meters in height. Its long and narrow shape and the high ceiling enable the elongated reverberation time and limited initial reflection time. Thus, the rich reverberation rather than the sound itself reproduces the atmosphere of the church.

Church in Royaumont

Chamber

This program features the sound field created by the refectory (dining hall) of a beautiful medieval Gothic monastery located in Royaumont on the outskirts of Paris.

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.

LIVE/CLUB

Village Gate

Village Vanguard

Warehouse Loft

Cellar Club

The Roxy Theatre

The Bottom Line

Arena

This is the sound field at a jazz club that was in New York. It is in a basement and has a relatively spacious floor area. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the hall.

The Jazz club is on 7th Avenue, New York. This small club with the low ceiling makes the powerful reflections converge toward the stage located in the center.

The warehouse resembles some lofts in Soho. Sound reflects off the concrete walls clearly with a lot of energy.

This program simulates an intimate concert venue with a low ceiling and homey atmosphere. A realistic, live sound field delivers powerful sounds that make you feel as if you are sitting in the front row in front of a small stage.

This program creates the sound field of a 460-seat rock music concert venue in Los Angeles. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the hall.

This program creates 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.

This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, with the extraordinarily spacious feel of a large arena.

STEREO

2ch Stereo

11ch Stereo

Use this program to mix down multichannel sources to 2 channels. When multichannel signals are input, they are down mixed to 2 channels and output from the front speakers (this program does not utilize CINEMA DSP).

Use this program to output sound from all speakers. When you play back multichannel sources, the unit mixes down the source to 2 channels, and then outputs the sound from all speakers. This program creates a larger sound field and is ideal for background music at parties.

CINEMA DSP HD3 (p.66) and Virtual CINEMA DSP (p.69) do not work when “2ch Stereo” or “11ch Stereo” is

selected.

En 68

■ Enjoying sound field effects without surround speakers

(Virtual CINEMA DSP)

If you select one of the sound programs (except 2ch Stereo and 11ch Stereo) when no surround

speakers are connected, the unit utilizes Yamaha’s original virtual surround technology to

reproduce up to 7-channel surround sound and enable you to enjoy the well-oriented sound

field only with the front-side speakers. We recommend using presence speakers in order to

enjoy more effective stereoscopic sound field.

When Virtual CINEMA DSP is working, “VIRTUAL” lights up in the front display.

■ Enjoying surround sound with 5 speakers placed in

front (Virtual CINEMA FRONT)

If you have surround speakers but there is no space to place them in the rear of your room, you

can place them in the front (p.24) and enjoy multichannel surround sound using Virtual

CINEMA FRONT.

When “Layout (Surround)” (p.122) in the “Setup” menu is set to “Front”, the unit creates the

virtual surround speakers in the rear side to allow you to enjoy multichannel surround sound

with the 5 speakers placed in the front.

When Virtual CINEMA FRONT is working, “VIRTUAL” lights up in the front display.

■ Enjoying surround sound with headphones

(SILENT CINEMA)

You can enjoy surround or sound field effects, like a multichannel speaker system, with stereo

headphones by connecting the headphones to the PHONES jack and selecting a sound

program or a surround decoder.
