Overview

It is generally accepted that in order to fully enjoy the benefits of surround sound at home, you must endure the agony of wiring and installing a great number of speakers in the hope that your listening room will give you the same kind of surround sound experience as your local movie theater. Yamaha HTY-750 Digital Sound Projector challenges this preconception that complicated speaker setup and troublesome wiring go hand-in-hand with the enjoyment of multi-channel surround sound. This slimline unit does away with the need for complicated wiring and installation worries, leaving you with a unit that is not only easy to set up, but is also capable of reproducing the kind of powerful surround sound you have been waiting for from its built-in 2 woofers and 16 full-range small speakers. You can fine-tune the parameters of this unit to adjust the delay time for separate sound beams, resulting in highly directional sound that comes in on the listening position from all directions. The HTY-750 projects sound beams containing surround sound information for the front right (R), front left (L), surround right (SR), and surround left (SL) speaker positions, which are reflected off the walls of your listening room before reaching the actual listening position. With the addition of center (C) sound beams, this Digital Sound Projector creates true-to-life 5.1-channel surround sound that makes you feel as if there are actual speakers around the room. Sit back and enjoy the real sound experience of this simple, yet stylish Digital Sound Projector.

Features

Digital Sound Projector™

The Digital Sound Projector technology allows one slim unit to control and steer multiple channels of sound to generate multi-channel surround sound, thus eliminates the need for satellite loudspeakers and cabling normally associated with conventional surround sound systems. This unit also employs the beam modes that let you enjoy the surround sound (5 Beam, Stereo plus 3 Beam, 3 Beam, and My Surround), stereo playback, and My Beam.

My Surround

In addition to the above mentioned beam modes, this unit is equipped with My Surround beam mode that allows you to enjoy surround system even in a small listening area. My Surround is a function integrated and optimized with DiMAGIC’s Euphony technology and Yamaha’s Beam reproduction system.

My Beam

This unit employs My Beam that ensures a clear sound in a noisy environment. You can adjust the beam angle manually or automatically using the supplied remote control to the maximum of 30°, rightward and leftward.

Versatile Remote Control

The supplied remote control comes with preset remote control codes used to control the DVD player, VCR, cable TV tuner, and digital satellite tuner connected to this unit. In addition, the remote control is equipped with the macro capability that enables a series of operations with the press of a single button.

AUTO SETUP (IntelliBeam)

This unit employs the automatic sound beam and acoustic optimization technology with the aid of the supplied IntelliBeam microphone. You can avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieve highly accurate sound beam adjustments that best match your listening environment.

Compatibility with the Newest Technologies

This unit employs decoders compatible with Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS Neo:6.

◆ Dolby Digital This is the standard audio signal format used on various digital media such as DVD, Blu-ray, and HD DVD. This surround technology delivers high-quality digital audio for up to 5.1 discrete channels to produce a directional and more realistic effect.

◆ DTS This is the standard audio signal format used on various digital media such as DVD, Blu-ray, and HD DVD. This surround technology delivers high-quality digital audio for up to 5.1 discrete channels to produce a directional and more realistic effect.

◆ Dolby Pro Logic This sophisticated, matrix decoding technology up-converts any 2-channel source audio to a 5.1-channel full bandwidth playback, resulting in a surround sound experience.

◆ Dolby Pro Logic II This is a redesigned version of Dolby Pro Logic that employs 2 stereo surround channels, a subwoofer, and a greatly enhanced steering logic. This improved technology provides an exceptionally stable sound field that simulates 5.1 to a much greater degree than the original Dolby Pro Logic.

◆ DTS Neo:6 This technology decodes the conventional 2-channel sources for 6-channel playback, enabling playback with the full-range channels with higher separation. Music mode and Cinema mode are available to play back music and movie sources respectively.
