FEATURES OF THE SOUND EFFECTS

Welcome to the exciting world of digital home entertainment.
This unit is one of the most complete and advanced AV
receivers available. Some of the more advanced features may
not be familiar to you, but they are easy to use. State-of-the-art
technologies such as Dolby Digital and Digital Theater Systems
(DTS) may be new to your home, but you have probably
experienced the amazing realism they bring to feature films in
theaters around the world.

Digital Sound Field Processing

What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced
sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to
the sound of a live performance, but the chances are that you’ll
still notice something missing — the acoustic environment of
the live concert hall. Extensive research into the exact nature
of the sonic reflections that create the ambience of a large hall
has made it possible for YAMAHA engineers to bring you this
same sound to your listening room, so you’ll feel all the sound
of a live concert.

To make the listening experience even more enjoyable, this unit
includes a number of exclusive, digitally created listening
environments known as digital sound fields. Choosing a sound
field program is like transporting yourself to such venues as an
outdoor arena, a European church, or a cozy jazz club. Take
some time now to read more about these features and enjoy
the new experiences this unit brings to your home theater.

Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated
measuring equipment, have even made it possible to capture
the acoustics of a variety of actual concert halls, theaters, etc.
from around the world, to allow you to accurately re-create any
one of these live performance environments, all in your own
home.

Dolby Pro Logic

Dolby Surround has been used in movie theaters since the mid­seventies. It has also been available in home entertainment
systems since the late eighties and continues to be a popular
format for home theater systems. It uses four discrete channels
and five speakers to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound
effects: two main channels (left and right), a center channel for
dialog, and a rear channel for special sound effects. The rear
channel reproduces sound within a narrow frequency range.

Most video tapes and laser discs include Dolby Surround
encoding, as do many TV and cable broadcasts. The Dolby Pro
Logic decoder built into this unit employs a digital signal
processing system that stabilizes each channel for even more
accurate sound positioning than is available with standard
analog processors.

5

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is the next level of the Dolby Surround sound
system that was developed for 35 mm-film movies by
employing low bit-rate audio coding.
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that provides
completely independent multi-channel audio to you. Dolby
Digital provides five full-range channels in what is sometimes
referred to as a “3/2” configuration: three front channels (left,
center and right), and two surround channels. A sixth bass-only
effect channel is also provided for output of LFE (low frequency
effect), or low bass effects that are independent of other
channels. (This is called the “LFE channel”.) This channel is
counted as 0.1, thus giving rise to the term 5.1 channels in
total.
Compared to Dolby Surround, which is referred to a “3/1”
system (left front, center, right front and just one surround
channel), Dolby Digital features two surround channels, called
stereo or split surrounds, each offering the same full-range
fidelity as the three front channels.

By using the built-in Dolby Digital decoder, you can experience
the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Digital theater sound
in your home.
The wide dynamic range of sound reproduced by the five full­range channels and precise sound orientation by digital sound
processing provides listeners with excitement and realism that
have never been experienced before.

Dolby Digital forms 5.1 channels as already mentioned, but it
can also form fewer channels, for example 2-channel stereo
and monaural. You may be able to find some 2-channel stereo
and/or monaural sources encoded with Dolby Digital in the
market.
Laser disc and DVD are home audio/video program sources
that could benefit from Dolby Digital. In the near future, Dolby
Digital will also be applied to DBS, CATV and HDTV. The
ongoing release of Dolby Digital theatrical films now underway
will provide an immediate source of Dolby Digital encoded
video software.

DTS Digital Surround

DTS (Digital Theater Systems) was developed to replace
analog soundtracks of movies with six discrete channels of
digital soundtracks, and it is now installed in many theaters
around the world. The DTS digital playback system changed
the way we experienced movies in theaters with six discrete
channels of superb digital audio.

DTS technology, through intense research and development
has made it possible to deliver similar encode/decode discrete
technology to home audio surround-sound entertainment.
DTS Digital Surround is an encode/decode system which
delivers six channels of master-quality, 20-bit audio; technically,
it is 5.1 channels, which means 5 full-range (left, center, right
and two surround) channels, plus a subwoofer (LFE) channel
(as “0.1”). It is compatible with the 5.1 speaker configurations
that are currently available for home theater systems.

The DTS Digital Surround algorithm is designed to encode the
six channels of 20-bit audio on to some laser discs, compact
discs and DVDs with considerably less data compression.

By using the DTS decoder built into this unit, you can
experience the dramatic realism and impact of the DTS­installed theater’s high quality sound in your home.

Laser disc, compact disc and DVD are home audio formats by
which DTS can present its high-quality multi-channel audio. (In
addition to movies on laser discs, many exciting new multi­channel music recordings will also become available in the
form of DTS-encoded compact discs.)

CINEMA DSP: Dolby Surround + DSP / DTS + DSP

English

The Dolby Surround sound and DTS systems show their full
ability in a large movie theater, because movie sounds are
originally designed to be reproduced in a large movie theater
that uses a multitude of speakers. Trying to create a sound
environment similar to that of a movie theater in your home is
difficult because of the room size, material inside the walls, the
number of speakers, and so on. In other words, your listening
room is very different from a movie theater.

Dolby Pro Logic + 2 Digital Sound Fields

Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the
rear surround side of the Dolby Pro Logic-decoded sound
field, respectively. They create a wide acoustic environment
and emphasize the surround effect in the room, letting you
feel as much presence as if you were watching a movie in a
popular Dolby Stereo theater.

Refer to pages 37 to 38 for the DSP program.

However, YAMAHA DSP technology allows you to create nearly
the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in
your home by compensating for the lack of presence and
dynamics in the listening room with original digital sound fields
combined with Dolby Surround or DTS Digital Surround
sounds.

CINEMA DSP

The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those programs
that are created by the combination of YAMAHA DSP
technology and Dolby Surround or DTS.

Dolby Digital or DTS + 3 Digital Sound Fields

Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the
independent left and right surround sides of the Dolby Digital­decoded or DTS-decoded sound field, respectively. They
create a wide acoustic environment and strong surround
effect in the room without losing high-channel separation. With
the wide dynamic range of Dolby Digital or DTS sound, this
sound field combination lets you feel as if you were watching
a movie in the newest Dolby Digital theater or DTS-installed
theater. This is the most ideal home theater sound at the
present time.

Refer to pages 37 to 38 for the DSP program.

SPEAKERS TO BE USED

English

SPEAKER SETUP

This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with
a 5-speaker configuration, using main speakers, rear speakers
and a center speaker.
The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus
the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from
your present stereo system. The rear speakers are used for
the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker is for
the center 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 with the full system.

The main speakers should be high-performance models and
have enough power-handling capacity to accept the maximum
output of your audio system.
The other speakers do not have to be equal to the main
speakers. For precise sound localization, however, it is ideal to
use high-performance models that can reproduce sounds over
the full range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

Refer to the following diagram when you place the speakers.

Use of a subwoofer expands your sound field

It is also possible to further expand your system with the
addition of a subwoofer. The use of a subwoofer is effective
not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all
channels, but also for reproducing the LFE (low frequency
effect) sound with high fidelity when playing back a source that
is Dolby Digital or DTS-decoded. The YAMAHA Active Servo
Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for natural and lively
bass reproduction.

CONNECTING TO DIGITAL (COAXIAL AND/OR OPTICAL) TERMINALS

English

If your DVD (LD) player, TV/DBS tuner, etc. are equipped with
coaxial or optical digital audio signal output terminals, they can
be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL digital
signal input terminals.

Digital audio signals are transmitted with less loss than analog
audio signals. In addition, digital audio signal connections are
necessary, especially for an LD player or a DVD player, to send
signals encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS to this unit.

To make a connection between optical digital audio signal
terminals, remove the cover from each terminal, and then
connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber
cable that conforms to EIAJ standards. Other cables might not
function correctly.

Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the COAXIAL (or
OPTICAL) terminal of this unit, you must keep the unit
connected with the same-named analog audio signal terminals
of this unit, because a digital signal cannot be recorded by a
tape deck, MD recorder or VCR connected to this unit. You can
easily switch the selection of input signals between “digital” and
“analog.” (See page 26 for details.)

Notes

• When connecting an audio/video unit to both the digital and
analog terminals of this unit, make sure to connect between
both terminals of the same name.

• Be sure to attach the covers when the OPTICAL terminals
are not being used in order to protect them from dust.

• The input signal from the DVD/LD input terminals is selected
in the following order of priority with the input mode set to the
AUTO position:
1 COAXIAL terminal
2 OPTICAL terminal
3 Analog terminal

• If the DIGITAL OUT data of the player has been processed in
any way, you may not be able to perform DTS playback even
if you make a digital connection between this unit and the
player.

• All digital audio signal input terminals are applicable to
sampling frequencies of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.

the video image will not be interrupted.

• When you select an input source by INPUT, the DSP
program (or no DSP program) that was being used when the
same input source was selected the last time will be auto­matically recalled.

• If “DATA ERR” appears on the display while playing a CD or
LD encoded with DTS, stop playback and turn the player off
and then on again.

Switching the input mode
(for DVD/LD and TV/DBS)

This unit allows you to switch the input mode for sources that
send two or more types of signal to this unit.
The following three input modes are provided.

AUTO

This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the
power of this unit.
In this mode, the input signal is automatically selected in the
following order of priority:

Notes on input mode selection

• The input mode for a TV/DBS source is selected with the
function “INPUT” in the SET MENU mode. (See page 43 for
details.)

• Set the input mode to AUTO to play a DVD/LD source
encoded with Dolby Digital.

• Set the input mode to ANALOG to play a normal 2-channel
source with a Dolby Surround program.

• The sound output may be interrupted in some LD and DVD
players in the following situation:
The input mode is set to AUTO. A search is made while
playing the disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, and then
disc playing is restored. The sound output is interrupted for a
moment because the digital input signal was selected again.

• The input mode cannot be changed for the PHONO, TUNER,
TAPE/MD, CD, VCR and VIDEO AUX sources because only
analog signals are used.

• The present input mode appears on the display when the
input source is changed to DVD/LD or TV/DBS, or the input
mode is changed.

Notes on playing a source encoded with DTS

If you play a CD or LD encoded with DTS while the AUTO
mode is selected, there will be a short noise at first while the
unit identifies the DTS signal and activates the DTS decoder.
This is not a malfunction, and can be avoided by setting the
input mode to DTS beforehand. In addition, If you continue
to play a CD or LD encoded with DTS with the input mode
setting left at AUTO, this unit automatically switches to the
“DTS-decoding” mode to prevent noise from being gener­ated during future operation. (The red “dts” indicator lights
up on the display.)
No sound will be heard if a normal PCM CD or LD is played
in this mode. (The red “dts” indicator will flash.) To play a
normal disk, return the input mode from DTS to AUTO.

1. Digital signal encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, or normal
digital input signal (PCM)

2. Analog input signal (ANALOG)

* For a DVD/LD source, if digital signals are input from both the

OPTICAL and COAXIAL terminals, the digital signal from the
COAXIAL terminal is selected.

DTS

In this mode, only a digital input signal encoded with DTS is
selected, even though other signals are input at the same time.

ANALOG

In this mode, only an analog input signal is selected, even
though digital signals are input at the same time.
Select this mode when you want to use an analog input signal
instead of digital input signals.

Notes

• You can manually replace a preset station with another FM or AM station by simply following the procedure in the section “To
store stations” on page 29.

• An automatic preset tuning search will be performed through all RDS network frequencies until stations have been stored up to
E8. Even if the number of received stations is not enough to be stored up to E8, the search is automatically ended after search­ing all frequencies.

• With this function, only RDS stations with sufficient signal strength are automatically stored. If the station you want to store is
weak in signal strength, tune in to it manually in monaural sound and store it by following the procedure in the section “To store
stations” on page 29.
* There may be a case that this function cannot receive a station which could be received by the automatic tuning method. This

is because this function receives a large volume of PI (Program Identification) data along with the station.

RECEIVING RDS STATIONS

Radio Data System (RDS) is a data transmission system gradually being introduced by FM stations in many countries. Stations
using this system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the normal radio signal.
RDS data contains various information such as PI (Program Identification), PS (Program Service name), PTY (Program Type), RT
(Radio Text), CT (Clock Time), EON (Enhanced Other Networks), etc.
The RDS function is used by network stations.

DESCRIPTION OF RDS DATA

This unit can receive PI, PS, PTY, RT, CT, and EON data when receiving RDS broadcast stations.

English

PS (Program Service name) mode:

The name of the RDS station being received is displayed.

PTY (Program Type) mode:

The type of program on the RDS station being received is
displayed. There are 15 program types to classify RDS
stations. You can make this unit search for a station which is
broadcasting a program of the desired type. See page 34 for
details.

RT (Radio Text) mode:

Information about the program (such as the title of a song,
name of the singer, etc.) on the RDS station being received is
displayed by a maximum of 64 alphanumeric characters,
including the umlaut sign. If other characters are used for RT
data, they are displayed with under-bars.

CT (Clock Time) mode:

The current time is displayed and updated every minute.
If the data is accidentally cut off, “CT WAIT” may appear.

EON (Enhanced Other Networks):

See page 35.

CHANGING THE RDS MODE

When an RDS station is being received, PS, PTY, RT and/or CT that correspond to the RDS data services employed by the station
light up on the display. By pressing RDS MODE, you can change the display mode among the RDS modes employed by the
received station in the order shown below. Illumination of the RDS modes indicator shows that the corresponding RDS mode has
been selected.
* When an RDS station is being received, do not press RDS MODE until one or more names of RDS modes light up on the display.

If the button is pressed before one or more names light up on the display, the mode cannot be changed. This is because the unit

has not yet received all of the RDS data on the station.
* If no RDS mode lights up on the display, the mode cannot be changed.
* An RDS mode not employed by the station cannot be selected.

Front panel

PS PTY RT CT

mode mode mode mode

Notes

• The RDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the received signal is not strong enough. In particular, the RT mode

requires a large amount of data to be received, so it is possible that the RT mode cannot be displayed even if other RDS modes

(PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.

• There may be a case that RDS data reception is not possible due to poor reception conditions. If so, press TUNING MODE so

that the “AUTO TUNING” indicator goes off from the display. Although the reception mode is changed to monaural by this

operation, when you change the display to RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.

• If the signal strength is weakened by external interference during the reception of an RDS station, the RDS data service may be

cut off suddenly and “

...

WAIT” will appear on the display.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM

This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. This processor allows you to electronically
expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in
your listening room. You can create outstanding audio sound by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course,
depend on what you are listening to) and adding any desired adjustments.

The operation of built-in decoders (Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS) can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP
program incorporating the combined operation of YAMAHA DSP and Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital or DTS.

The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most
of these are precise digital re-creations of actual acoustic environments.

For details on “CNTR”, “REAR”, “MAIN”, “BASS” and “M.LVL”,
see page 19. (Once you have selected the appropriate
settings, you do not have to change any settings unless an
alteration is made in your speaker system.)

D.D.LFE (Adjusting the level of the LFE
channel for Dolby Digital)

Control range: –20 dB to 0 dB (in 1 dB steps)
Preset value: 0 dB

* This adjustment is effective only when Dolby Digital is being

decoded and the signals of the selected source encoded with
Dolby Digital contain LFE signals.

This adjusts the output level of the LFE channel. If the LFE
signals are mixed with signals of other channels and they are
output from the same speakers, the ratio of the LFE signal level
to the level of the other signals can be adjusted.
(See page 6 for details about the LFE channel.)

D.RNG (Adjusting the dynamic range)

Choices: MAX/STD/MIN
Preset position: MAX

* This adjustment is effective only when Dolby Digital is being

decoded.

“Dynamic range” is the difference between the maximum level
and the minimum level of sounds.
Sounds on a movie originally designed for movie theaters
feature a very wide dynamic range.
Dolby Digital technology can modify the original sound track
into a home audio format with this wide dynamic range un­changed.
Powerful sounds of extremely wide dynamic range are not

always suitable for home use. Depending upon the condition of
your listening environment, it may not be possible to increase
the sound output to a level as high as that in a movie theater.

7. D.RNG (DYNAMIC RANGE)

8. DTS LFE (DTS LFE LEVEL)

9. C.DELAY (CENTER DELAY)

10. GUARD (MEMORY GUARD)

11. INPUT (INPUT MODE)

However, at the normal level suitable for listening in your room,
the low-level parts of source sound often cannot be heard well
because they will be lost among noise in your environment.
Dolby Digital technology has also made it possible to reduce an
original sound track’s dynamic range for a home audio format
by “compressing” the sound data.

MAX: In this position, a source encoded with Dolby Digital

is reproduced in the original sound track’s wide
dynamic range to provide you with powerful sounds
just like those in a movie theater.
Selecting this position will be even better if you can
listen to a source at a high output level in a room
specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment.

STD (Standard):

In this position, a source encoded with Dolby Digital
is reproduced in the “compressed” dynamic range of
the source that is suitable for low-level listening.

MIN: In this position, the dynamic range is more reduced

than in the STD position.
Selecting this position will be effective when you
must listen to a sound source at a low level.
* In this position, it may happen that sound is output

faintly or not output normally depending on the
source. In that case, select the MAX or STD
position.

DTS LFE (Adjusting the level of the LFE
channel for DTS)

Control range: –10 dB to +10 dB (in 1 dB steps)
Preset value: 0 dB

* This adjustment is effective only when DTS is being decoded

and the signals of the selected source encoded with DTS
contain LFE signals.

This adjusts the output level of the LFE channel. If the LFE
signals are mixed with signals of other channels and they are
output from the same speakers, the ratio of the LFE signal level
to the level of the other signals can be adjusted.
(See page 6 for details about the LFE channel.)

42

English

C.DELAY [Adjusting the delay of
center sounds (dialog, etc.)]

Control range: 0 ms to 5 ms (in 1 ms steps)
Preset value: 0 ms

* This adjustment is effective only when Dolby Digital or DTS is

being decoded and the signals of the selected source
encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS contain center-channel
signals.

This adjusts the delay between the main sound (on the main
channels) and dialog, etc. (on the center channel).
The larger the value, the later the dialog, etc. is generated.

This is for making sounds from the left main, center and right
main speakers reach your listening position at the same time.
This is achieved by delaying the sound from the center speaker
if the distance from the center speaker to your listening position
is shorter than the distance from the left or right main speaker
to your listening position.

unit besides the analog audio signal
terminal connections.

Select a proper input mode on this unit
to turn on the DTS decoder built into
the unit.

Set the input mode of the currently
selected input source to DTS.

Notes

• It is necessary to use a DTS decoder to play back a source encoded with DTS, so the player which plays back the source must
be connected to a digital audio input terminal of this unit in the way described in this manual. If this connection is not made or
only a D-to-A converter is being used without using a DTS decoder, when you play back the source, only a loud hissing noise will
be heard.

• If you make a search (or skip, etc.) operation while playing back a source encoded with DTS, the “dts” indicator goes out from the
display. This is because this unit automatically changes the DTS-decoding mode to the standard (PCM) digital signal input mode
to prevent a noise from being output.
