High Sound Quality

Digital ToP-ART and High Current
Amplification

The Digital ToP-ART
design concept combines
the latest and best
technologies, parts and
circuit designs to
maximize sound quality.
High Current Amplification
uses superior
components to achieve
high current power with
low impedance from input
to output.

Pure Direct

Pure Direct is a special listening mode that
provides the highest possible signal purity. It can
be used for both analog and digital sources, with
two-channel or multi-channel inputs. When it is
selected, the signal follows the most direct path
and power to the video and FL display circuit is
shut down. Certain modes are not operational
and even the display is turned off, lighting for
only a few seconds when a function is used. A
blue display indicates that the Pure Direct is
engaged.

Advanced Facilities

YPAO Automatically Sets Best Sound for Any
Room, Any Speaker Placement

Yamaha’s YPAO system uses a small
microphone and sophisticated
equalization to automatically set the
best sound for any room, no matter
where the speakers are. The HTR­5890 has an improved system that is
faster (less than three minutes).

Custom Installation Compatibility

The HTR-5890 offers a variety of features that
make it easy to achieve flexible custom
installation in three different rooms (zones) of the
home. Zone 2 power amplifier assignability and
speaker terminals mean that Zone 2 can be fully
independent with its own 2-channel power, while
you still enjoy 5.1-channel sound in the main
room. The video signal can be output to Zone 2

as well. Zone 3
has its own
volume control,
and there is an
IR port for
remote control
capability and a
trigger output
for automatic
power-on of

Surround Realism

Dialogue Lift

When the centre speaker is below a large screen,
the sound image of the dialogue is oriented below
the picture, which sounds strange. Dialogue Lift
performs signal processing on the centre channel
signal and presence channels signals (located
higher than the centre channel), orienting the sound
image of the dialogue to the proper position. This
results in natural reproduction matching the location
of the dialogue to the screen image.

Quad-Field CINEMA DSP and 16 Surround
Programmes with 2 THX Programmes

Yamaha’s ultra-sophisticated Quad-Field and Tri­Field CINEMA DSP technology creates thrillingly
realistic soundscapes in your room. 16 surround
programmes with 2 THX programmes provide full
format compatibility and extensive listening choices.

Night Listening Enhancer and SILENT CINEMA

During low-volume listening, such as late at night,
dynamic range suffers and you may miss some
sounds. The Night Listening Enhancer offers two
modes, Cinema and Music, with three-level
selectability, which will ensure that you don’t miss
movie dialogue or quiet passages, or lose overall
surround spaciousness. It works for all surround
programmes, including Dolby Pro Logic IIx.

The SILENT CINEMA mode
allows private listening
enjoyment of multi-channel
music or movies, with an
accurate simulation of surround
sound, through ordinary
headphones.

High Picture Quality

Component Video Up Conversion

Up video conversion (composite to S-Video and
component, S-Video to component) as well as down
video conversion (S-video to composite) is automatically
applied to incoming signals. This means that you simply
use the best possible cable between the receiver and
the TV, and then whatever the source is, you are assured
of getting the highest possible quality.
