SPEAKER SETUP

Speaker placement

The speaker layout below shows the standard ITTI-R*

speaker setting. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP

and multi-channel audio sources.

* ITU-R IS the radio communication sector of the ITU

(International Telecoimuuiication Union).

Surround speakers (SR and SL)

The surround speakers are used for effect and surround sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m (6 ft) above the floor.

Subwoofer

The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active Serv'o Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only for reinforcing bass freciuencies from any or all channels, but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LEE (lowfrequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and DTS software. The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because lotv bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly tow'ard the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.

Front speakers (FR and FL)

The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus

effect sounds. Place these speakers an equal distance from

the ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker

from each side of the video monitor should be the same.

Center speaker (C)

The center speaker is for the center channel 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 wnth the full system. Align the front

face of the center speaker with the front face of your video monitor. Place the speaker centrally betw'een the front

speakers and as close to the monitor as possible, such as

directly over or under it.

SPEAKER SETUP

Speaker connections

Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and (black) properly. If the connections are

faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

CAUTION

• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the power of this unit is off.

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or speakers.

• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor.

A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped differently, perhaps ivith a stripe, groove or ridges. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red) temiinals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the (black) terminals.

■ Banana plug connections

First, tighten the knob and then insert the banana plug connector into the end of the corresponding terminal.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS

This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multi-channel playback from almost any sound source (stereo or multi-charmel). This unit is also equipped with a YAMAHA digital sound field processing (DSP) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience. Most of these sound field programs are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments found 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. Set the input mode to AUTO (see page 30) to enable this unit to automatically switch to the appropriate digital decoder according to the input signal.

Notes

This unif s DSP sound field programs are recreations of real-world acoustic environments made from precise measurements taken in the actual hall, etc. Thus you may notice variations in the strength of the reflections coming from the front, back, left and right. Feel free to choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, and not purely on the name of the program itself.

For movie/video sources

You can select from the following sound fields when playing movie or video sources. The sound fields marked “MULTF can be used with multi-channel sources, like DVD, digital TV, etc. Those marked “2-CH” can be used with 2-channel (stereo) sources like TV programs, video tapes, etc.

Program selection methods vary depending on sound field program types. For details on how to

select sound field programs, see “Selecting sound field programs” on pages 26 to 30.

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS

\MhB\ is a sound field

jat really creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument are the multiple reflections from the walls of the room. In addition to making the sound “live”, these reflections enable us to tell w'here the player is situated, and the size and shape of the room in wdiich w'e are sitting.

■ Elements of a sound field

In any environment, in addition to the direct sound coming straight to our ears from the player’s instmment, there are two distinct types of sound reflections that combine to

make up the sound field:

Early reflections

Reflected sounds reach our ears extremely rapidly (50 ms

- 100 ms after the direct sound), after reflecting from one surface only - for example, from the ceiling or a rvall. Early reflections actually add clarity to the direct sound.

Reverberations

These are caused by reflections from more than one surface - rvalls, ceiling, the back of the room - so

numerous that they merge together to form a continuous

sonic “afterglow”. They are non-directional, and lessen the clarity of the direct sound.

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 you could create the appropriate early reflections and subsequent reverberations in your listening room, you

wmdd 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 virtually any size room at all. This ability to create sound fields at ivill is exactly

rvhat YAMAHA has done with the digital sound field processor.

Changing parameter settings

You can enjoy good quality sound with the factory preset parameters. Although you do not have to change the initial settings, you can change some of the parameters to better suit the input source or your listening room.

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS

3 Repeat steps 2 through 4 as necessary to

change other program parameters.

Note

You cannot change parameter values when “MEMORY GUARD” IS set to ON. If you want to change the parameter values, set “MEMORY GUARD” to OFF (see page 58).

Memory back-up

The memory back-up circuit prev'ents the stored data from being lost even if this unit is set in the standby mode, the power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet, or the power supply is temporarily cut due to power failure. However, if the power is cut for more than one tveek, the parameter values will return to the factory settings. If this happens, edit the parameter v'alue again.

■ Resetting all parameters to the factory

presets

Use PARAM. INI (see page 58).

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS

Yovi can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your

listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.

■ DSP LEVEL (DSP level)

Function; Adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range. Description: Depending on the acoustics of your listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP

effect level relative to the level of the direct sound.

Control range: -6 dB to +3 dB

■ INIT. DLY (Initial delay)

Function: Changes the apparent distance from the source sound by adjusting the delay between the direet sound

and the first reflection heard by the listener.

Description: The smaller the value, the closer the sound source seems to the listener. The larger the value, the farther

it seems. For a small room, set to a small value. For a large room, set to a large value.

GLOSSARY

Audio formats

■ Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3

front channels (left, center, and right), and 2 surround

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 sun'ouiid speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and surround sound environment are possible than with Dolby Surround. The wide dynamic range (from maximum to minimum volume) reproduced by the 5 full-range channels and the precise sound orientation generated using digital sound processing provide listeners rvith previously unheard of 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 Sunound

softtvare. This netv technology enables a discrete 5channel playback with 2 front left and right channels, 1 center channel, and 2 sun'oimd left and right channels (instead of only 1 sunound 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 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 suri'ound channel reproduces

sound tvithin a narrow frequency range. Dolby Sun'ound is widely used wnth nearly all video tapes and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as w'ell. 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 96/24

DTS 96.''24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality

for multi-channel sound on DVD-Video, and is fully backw ard-compatible with all DTS decoders. “96” refers to a 96 kHz sampling rate (compared to the typical 48 kHz

sampling rate). “24” refers to 24-bit word length. DTS 96,' 24 offers sound quality transparent to the original 96.24 master, and 96.''24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full motion video for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

■ DTS (Digital Theater Systems) Digital Surround

DTS digital surround w^as developed to replace the 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 ean enjoy the depth of sound and natural spatial representation of DTS digital surround in your home. This system produces 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 5.1-channels). The unit incorporates a DTS-ES decoder that enables 6.1- channel reproduction by adding the sunound back channel to existing 5.1-channel format.

■ Neo;6

Neo:6 decodes the 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.

Sound field programs

■ CINEMA DSP

Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effeet is best felt in a theater having many speakers and designed for acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can differ so wddely, it’s inevitable that there are differences in

the sound heard as well. Based on a wealth of actually measured data, YAMAHA CINEMA DSP uses YAMAHA original sound field technology to combine

Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS systems to provide the visual and audio experience of movie theater

in the listening room of your own home.

■ SILENT CINEMA

YAMAHA has developed a natural, realistic sound effect

DSP algorithm for headphones.

Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound

field 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 allow's you to enjoy DSP sound field

surround effects even without any surround speakers by using virtual sun’ound speakers.

It is even possible to enjoy Virtual CINEMA DSP using a minimal two-speaker system that does not include a center

speaker.

Audio information

■ ITU-R

ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU (International Telecommunication Union). ITU-R recommends a standard speaker placement which is used in many critical listening rooms, especially for mastering purposes.

■ LFE 0.1 channel

This channel is for the reproduction of low bass signals. The frequency 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 full-range reproduced by the other 5 6 channels in Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1/6.1-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 fineness 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, tvhile the dynamic range representing the sound level difference is determined by the number of quantized bits. In prineiple, 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 finely the sound level can be reproduced.

GLOSSARY

Video signal information

■ Component video signal

With the component video signal system, the video signal is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the Pb and Pr signals for the 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 use the component signal for output.

■ Composite video signal

With the composite video signal system, the video signal IS composed of 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.
