SPEAKER SETUP  
SPEAKER SETUP  
Center speaker (C)  
Speaker placement  
Since CINEMA DSP and THX are different surround  
post-processing technologies, we recommend the  
following speaker setup in order to enjoy the best surround  
sound of each technology.  
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds  
(dialog, vocals, etc.). Align the front face of the center  
speaker with the front face of your video monitor. Place  
the speaker centrally between the front speakers and as  
close to the monitor as possible, such as directly over or  
under it.  
CINEMA DSP speaker layout  
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.  
PL  
PR  
C
FL  
FR  
Surround back speakers (SBR and SBL)  
The surround back speakers supplement the surround  
speakers and provide for more realistic front-to-back  
transitions. Place these speakers directly behind the  
listening position and at the same height as the surround  
speakers. They should be positioned at least 30 cm (12 in.)  
apart. Ideally, they should be positioned at the same width  
as the front speakers.

Subwoofer  
more than 30 cm (12 in.)  
The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active  
Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only  
for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels,  
but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low-  
frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and  
DTS software. The position of the subwoofer is not so  
critical, because low bass sounds are not highly  
directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the  
front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the  
room to reduce wall reflections.  
y
The speaker layout above shows the standard ITU-R speaker  
setup. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP, multi-channel  
audio sources and THX.  
1.8 m (6 ft)  
1.8 m (6 ft)  
Presence speakers (PR and PL)  
Presence speakers supplement the sound from the front  
speakers with extra ambient effects produced by CINEMA  
DSP (see page 38). These effects include sounds that  
filmmakers intend to locate a little farther back behind the  
screen in order to create more theater-like ambience. Place  
these speakers at the front of the room about 0.5 - 1 m  
(1 - 3 ft) outside the front speakers, facing slightly  
inwards, and about 1.8 m (6 ft) above the floor.  
Front speakers (FR and FL)  
The front speakers are used for the main source sound.  
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.

SPEAKER SETUP  
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables  
Di-pole speaker layout  
running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped  
differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridges.  
Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red)  
terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain  
cable to the “–” (black) terminals.  
Either di-pole or direct radiating speaker types can be used  
for THX surround. If you choose di-pole speakers, please  
place the surround and surround back speakers according  
to the speaker layout below.

Speaker connections  
Tighten the knob to secure the wire.  
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R),  
“+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are  
faulty, no sound can be heard from the speakers, and if the  
polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound  
will be unnatural and lack bass.

CAUTION  
If you intend to use 6-ohm speakers, be sure to set this  
unit’s speaker impedance setting to 6 ohms before  
using (see page 28).

Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this  
unit’s power is off.  
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or  
any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit  
and/or the speakers.

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

jacks. Connect red plugs to the right jacks and white plugs  
to the left jacks.  
Notes  
• When signals are input simultaneously through the  
COMPONENT VIDEO, S VIDEO and VIDEO jacks, the input  
priority is as follows: COMPONENT VIDEO, S VIDEO then  
VIDEO.  
Digital jacks  
This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital  
signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You  
can use the digital jacks to input PCM, Dolby Digital and  
DTS bitstreams. When you connect components to both  
the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, priority is given to  
the input signals from the COAXIAL jack. COAXIAL  
jacks are compatible with digital signals with sampling  
frequencies up to 192 kHz, and OPTICAL jacks with  
sampling frequencies up to 96 kHz.  
• Video signal conversion is only possible for signals input  
through the COMPONENT VIDEO jack when Resolution is set  
to 480i/576i. Signals will not be converted when Resolution is  
set to 480p/576p, 720p or 1080i (see page 72).  
Note  
This unit handles digital and analog signals independently. Thus,  
audio signals input to the analog jacks are only output to the  
analog OUT (REC) jacks. Likewise audio signals input to the  
digital (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jacks are only output to the  
DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.

Connecting a turntable  
Connect your turntable to the GND terminal to reduce noise in  
the signal. However you may hear less noise by not connecting to  
the GND terminal with some record players.  
PHONO jacks are for connecting a turntable with an MM  
or high-output MC cartridge. If you have a turntable with  
a low-output MC cartridge, use an in-line boosting  
transformer or MC-head amplifier when connecting to  
these jacks.

Introduction  
Optimizer microphone setup  
This unit employs YAMAHA Parametric Room Acoustic  
Optimizer (YPAO) technology which lets you avoid  
troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieves  
highly accurate sound adjustments. The supplied  
optimizer microphone collects and analyzes the sound  
your speakers produce in your actual listening  
environment.

• Please be advised that it is normal for loud test tones to be  
output during the auto setup procedure.  
• If auto setup stops and an error message(s) appear on the GUI  
display, follow the troubleshooting on page 35.  
YPAO performs the following checks and makes  
appropriate adjustments to give you the best possible  
sound from your system.  
Note  
After you have completed the auto setup procedure, be sure to  
disconnect the optimizer microphone. If it is left connected to this  
unit, no sound will be output from the speakers.  
Wiring  
Checks the polarity of each speaker.  
2
Place the optimizer microphone on a flat  
level surface with the omni-directional  
microphone head upward, at your normal  
listening position.  
Distance  
Checks the distance of each speaker from the listening  
position and adjusts the timing of each channel.  
Size  
* If possible, use a tripod (etc.) to affix the optimizer  
microphone at the same height as your ears would  
be when you are seated in your listening position.  
Checks the speaker’s frequency response and sets the  
appropriate low frequency crossover for each channel.  
Equalizing  
Adjusts frequency and levels of each channel’s parametric  
equalizer to reduce coloration across the channels and  
create a cohesive sound field. This is particularly  
important if you use different brands or sizes of speakers  
for some channels or have a room with unique sonic  
characteristics.  
Optimizer microphone position  
YPAO equalizing calibration incorporates three  
parameters (Frequency, Level and Q factor) for each of the  
10 bands in its parametric equalizer (plus 5 subwoofer  
bands) to provide highly precise automatic adjustment of  
frequency characteristics.  
Level  
Checks and adjusts the sound level (volume) of each  
speaker.

• Do a test recording before you start an actual recording.  
• When this unit is set in the standby mode, you cannot record  
between other components connected to this unit.  
• The setting of TONE CONTROL, VOLUME, “Speaker Level”  
(page 69) and programs does not affect the recorded material.  
• A source connected to this unit’s MULTI CH INPUT jacks  
cannot be recorded.  
• S video and composite video signals pass independently  
through this unit’s video circuits. Therefore, when recording or  
dubbing video signals, if your video source component is  
connected to provide only an S video (or composite video)  
signal, you can record only an S video (or composite video)  
signal to your VCR.  
• A given input source is not output on the same REC OUT  
channel. (For example, the signal input from VCR 1 IN is not  
output on VCR 1 OUT.)  
• Check the copyright laws in your country to record from  
records, CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may  
infringe copyright laws.  
• Dolby Digital RF signals are not output from the DIGITAL  
OUTPUT jacks.  
• Signals input through an i.LINK connection are only output to  
the DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks when REC OUT/ZONE 2 is set  
to SOURCE/REMOTE (priority is given to input signals from  
the OPTICAL and COAXIAL jacks).  
• Audio signals from CD or DVD video discs input through an  
i.LINK connection are only output if they come un-encrypted  
from the playback device. In other words, copy-protected  
signals input through an i.LINK connection will not be output  
to the REC OUT jacks.

Special considerations when recording  
DTS software  
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to  
digitally record the DTS bitstream will result in noise  
being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit to  
record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them,  
the following considerations and adjustments need to be  
made.  
For LDs, DVDs and CDs encoded with DTS, when your  
player is compatible with the DTS format, follow its  
operation instructions to make a setting so that the analog  
signal is output from the player.

Programming macro operations  
You can program your own macros and use the macro  
feature to transmit several remote control commands in  
sequence at the press of a button. Be sure to set up  
manufacturer codes or perform learning operations before  
programming the macro. We do not recommend  
programming continuous operations such as volume  
control in a macro.  
You can set up to 10 steps (10 functions). After you  
have set 10 steps, “FULL” appears and the remote  
control automatically exits from the macro mode.

Special considerations for DTS software  
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. If you attempt to  
send the DTS signal to the second room you will only hear  
digital noise (that may damage your speakers). Thus, the  
following considerations and adjustments need to be made  
when playing DTS encoded discs.

for DVDs: Use the disc menu to set the DVD player’s  
mixed 2-channel left and right audio outputs to the  
PCM or Dolby Digital soundtrack.  
• The source in Zone 2 and the source available for recording are  
always the same.  
• “Zone 2” appears in the display window only when kis

USING I.LINK  
USING i.LINK  
This unit is fitted with two i.LINK (AUDIO) connectors.  
By connecting components that support i.LINK (AUDIO)  
connections, in addition to digital transmission of 2-ch  
linear PCM signals and audio signals that have been  
compressed in multi-channel format, you can also send  
and receive uncompressed multi-channel audio signals,  
such as DVD audio and Super Audio CD signals for which  
digital transmission was not previously possible.  
Connecting i.LINK components  
You can connect i.LINK-compatible devices to this unit  
using either the daisy chain or tree connections.  
Daisy chain connections  
Use to link components together in a single chain. You can  
link up to 17 different components (including this unit)  
with this method.  
What is i.LINK?  
i.LINK is a high-speed and bi-directional digital interface  
in compliance with the IEEE1394 international standard.  
i.LINK  
component  
i.LINK  
component  
i.LINK  
component  
This unit supports i.LINK (AUDIO) for digital  
transmission of conventional 2-channel PCM signals  
and compressed multi-channel audio signals, as well as  
DVD audio (multi-channel PCM) and Super Audio CD  
(DSD) multi-channel audio signals using a single  
IEEE1394 cable connected from an i-LINK (AUDIO)-  
compatible component.  
Tree connections  
Use to link components in a branched configuration when  
3 or more i.LINK connectors are available. You can link  
up to 63 different components (including this unit) with  
this method.  
i.LINK  
The i.LINK transmission format supports the A&M  
Protocol (Audio and Music Data Transmission  
Protocol).  
i.LINK supports transmission speeds up to S400.  
Because i.LINK supports DTCP (Digital Transmission  
Content Protection), digital audio signals can be  
transmitted without any degradation in signal quality.

y
• When making connections, use a 4-pin IEEE1394 cable that  
supports the S400 transmission speed. We also recommend  
using a cable less than 3.0 m (12 ft) in length.  
• This unit supports hot plugging, a function that allows you to  
disconnect or connect the IEEE1394 cable while the power is  
turned on.  
This unit’s i.LINK interface was based on the  
following design standards:  
IEEE Std 1394a-2000 (Standard for a High  
Performance Serial Bus)  
Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol 2.0  
This unit’s i.LINK interface supports the following  
AM824 sequence adaptation layers: IEC60958  
bitstream, DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD.  
Notes  
• The system will not work if components are connected in a loop  
(where the output signal is returned to the original component).  
When connecting multiple i.LINK components, be sure not to  
connect them in a loop. If a loop connection is detected, the  
message “Loop Connection” is displayed on this unit’s front  
panel display. If this happens, disconnect the IEEE1394 cable,  
and use a recommended connection method.  
• Do not disconnect or connect the IEEE1394 cable from this unit  
or other i.LINK components while data is being transferred.  
Doing so may disrupt playback or cause noise.  
• When connecting the IEEE1394 cable to this unit’s i.LINK  
connectors, be sure to confirm the orientation of the connector  
before connecting the cable. Using excessive force to connect  
the cable to the connector in the wrong orientation will damage  
the connector.

Rotate INPUT SELECTOR to select the input  
to which you want to assign the i.LINK  
component.  
Assigning i.LINK components  
When an i.LINK component is connected, this unit  
automatically recognizes the connection and registers the  
connected component. Registered i.LINK components,  
such as CD or DVD players, can be assigned to a specific  
input. Assigning an i.LINK component to a specific input  
allows you to select the video input signals from that  
component together with the audio signals received via the  
i.LINK connection for simultaneous playback.  
After selecting, press PURE DIRECT to  
complete the assignment.  
If two or more i.LINK components are connected  
simultaneously, repeat steps 2 and 3 to assign input  
for the other i.LINK components.  
y
• If you do not want to assign a specific input, select  
“MULTI CH” in step 2, then press PURE DIRECT. If you do  
this, the i.LINK component is assigned to MULTI CH INPUT.  
Even after you assign the i.LINK component to a specific input,  
you can still use MULTI CH INPUT to select i.LINK (AUDIO)  
components using INPUT SELECTOR.  
• After recognition in step 1 is complete, the i.LINK component  
is automatically assigned to MULTI CH INPUT if no operation  
is performed within 10 seconds.  
Notes  
• If you connect an i.LINK component that does not support  
i.LINK (AUDIO), or an i.LINK component that does not  
support audio signal transmission, the connected component  
will be registered with this unit, but cannot be assigned to a  
specific input.  
• i.LINK components without a vendor or model name, such as  
IEEE1394 repeater/hub, are not registered.  
You can change the input assignment using the i.LINK Select  
menu (see page 99).

SOUND FIELD OPTIONS  
SOUND FIELD OPTIONS  
What is a sound field  
What 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 where the player is situated, and the size and shape  
of the room in which we 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 instrument, 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 wall. Early reflections actually add clarity to the direct sound.  
Reverberations  
These are caused by reflections from more than one surface — walls, 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 would 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 will is exactly what YAMAHA has done  
with the digital sound field processor.

that room is, the longer the time between the original  
reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By  
controlling the time between the reflected sounds, you can  
change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing  
this parameter from one to two doubles the apparent  
length of the room.  
Control range: 0.1 – 2.0  
DSP Level (DSP level)  
Source sound  
This parameter adjusts the level of all DSP effect sounds  
within a narrow range. Depending on the acoustics of your  
listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the  
DSP effect level relative to the level of direct sound.

SOUND FIELD OPTIONS  
Liveness (Liveness)  
Rev. Time (Reverberation time)  
This parameter adjusts the amount of time it takes for the  
dense, subsequent reverberation sound to decay by 60 dB  
(at 1 kHz). This changes the apparent size of the acoustic  
environment over an extremely wide range. Set a longer  
reverberation time for “dead” sources and listening room  
environments, and a shorter time for “live” sources and  
listening room environments.  
This parameter adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls  
in the hall by changing the rate at which the early  
reflections decay. The early reflections of a sound source  
decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent  
wall surfaces than in one which has highly reflective  
surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces is  
referred to as “dead”, while a room with highly reflective  
surfaces is referred to as “live”. The Liveness parameter  
lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the  
“liveness” of the room.

PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER INFORMATION  
PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER INFORMATION  
This unit employs YAMAHA Parametric Room Acoustic  
Optimizer (YPAO) technology to optimize the frequency  
characteristics of its parametric equalizer to match your  
listening environment. YPAO uses a combination of the  
following three parameters (Frequency, Level and Q  
factor) to provide highly precise adjustment of the  
frequency characteristics.  
Q factor  
The width of the specified frequency band is referred to as  
the Q factor. This parameter is adjustable between the  
values 0.5 and 10.  
Frequency  
This parameter is adjustable in one-third octave  
increments between 63 Hz and 16 kHz.  
YPAO adjusts frequency characteristics to suit your  
listening requirements using a combination of the above  
three parameters (Frequency, Level and Q factor) for each  
equalizer band in this unit’s parametric equalizer. This unit  
has 10 equalizer bands for each channel (plus 5 subwoofer  
bands).  
The use of multiple equalizer bands enables more precise  
adjustments of frequency characteristics (as in Figure 2).  
This is not possible using only a single equalizer band (as  
in Figure 1).  
Level  
This parameter is adjustable in increments of 0.5 dB  
between –20 and +6 dB.

GLOSSARY  
GLOSSARY  
Dolby Surround  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
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 surround channel reproduces  
sound within a narrow frequency range.  
Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes  
and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as  
well. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit  
employs a digital signal processing system that  
Dolby Pro Logic II is an improved technique used to  
decode vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround software.  
This new technology enables a discrete 5-channel  
playback with 2 front left and right channels, 1 center  
channel, and 2 surround left and right channels (instead of  
only 1 surround channel for conventional Pro Logic  
technology). The Music and Game modes are also  
available for 2-channel sources in addition to the movie  
mode.  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
automatically stabilizes the volume on each channel to  
enhance moving sound effects and directionality.  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a new technology enabling discrete  
7.1-channel playback from 2-channel or multi-channel  
sources. There is a Music mode for music, a Movie mode  
for movies and a Game mode for games.  
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 surround 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 with previously unheard of  
excitement and realism.  
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
Digital Surround  
DTS digital surround was 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 can 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,  
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 DTS-ES decoder that  
enables 6.1- channel reproduction by adding the surround  
back channel to existing 5.1-channel format.  
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up  
to a 5.1-channel configuration can be freely selected for  
your enjoyment.  
DTS 96/24  
Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output  
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a  
matrix decoder that derives 3 surround channels from the  
2 in the original recording. For the best results, Dolby  
Digital EX should be used with movie sound tracks  
recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this  
additional channel, you can experience more dynamic and  
realistic moving sound especially with scenes with  
“flyover” and “fly-around” effects.  
DTS 96/24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality  
for multi-channel sound on DVD-Video, and is fully  
backward-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.

GLOSSARY  
Neo:6  
S VIDEO signal  
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.  
With the S VIDEO signal system, the video signal  
normally transmitted using a pin cable is separated and  
transmitted as the Y signal for the luminance and the C  
signal for the chrominance through the S VIDEO cable.  
Using the S VIDEO jack eliminates video signal  
transmission loss and allows recording and playback of  
even more beautiful images.  
LFE 0.1 channel  
Component video signal  
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 a Dolby Digital or  
DTS 5.1/6.1 channel systems.  
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.  
CINEMA DSP  
Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were  
originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect  
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 widely, 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.  
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.  
SILENT CINEMA DSP  
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, while the dynamic range  
representing the sound level difference is determined by  
the number of quantized bits. In principle, 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.  
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 allows you to enjoy DSP sound field  
surround effects even without any surround speakers by  
using virtual surround speakers.  
It is even possible to enjoy Virtual CINEMA DSP using a  
minimal two-speaker system that does not include a center  
speaker.  
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.

GLOSSARY  
THX Cinema processing  
Adaptive Decorrelation  
THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies  
established by the world-renowned film production  
company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX grew from George Lucas’  
personal desire to make your experience of the film  
soundtrack, in both movie theatres and in your home  
theatre, as faithful as possible to what the director  
intended.  
Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theatres  
called dubbing stages and are designed to be played back  
in movie theatres with similar equipment and conditions.  
This same soundtrack is then transferred directly onto  
Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is not changed for  
playback in a small home theatre environment.  
THX engineers developed patented technologies to  
accurately translate the sound from the movie theatre  
environment into the home, correcting the tonal and  
spatial errors that occur. On this product, when the THX  
indicator is on, THX features are automatically added in  
Cinema modes (e.g. THX Cinema, THX Surround EX).  
In a movie theatre, a large number of surround speakers  
help create an enveloping surround sound experience, but  
in a home theatre there are usually only two speakers. This  
can make the surround speakers sound like headphones  
that lack spaciousness and envelopment. The surround  
sounds will also collapse into the closest speaker as you  
move away from the middle seating position. Adaptive  
Decorrelation slightly changes one surround channel's  
time and phase relationship with respect to the other  
surround channel. This expands the listening position and  
creates – with only two speakers – the same spacious  
surround experience as in a movie theatre.  
A.S.A. (Advanced Speaker Array)  
ASA is a proprietary THX technology which processes  
the sound fed to 2 surround and 2 surround back speakers  
to provide the optimal surround sound experience. When  
you set up your home theater system using all eight  
speaker outputs (Left, Center, Right, Surround Right,  
Surround Back Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Left  
and Subwoofer), placing the two Surround Back speakers  
close together facing the front of the room as shown in the  
diagram will provide the largest sweet spot. If for practical  
reasons you have to place the Surround Back speakers  
apart, you will need to go to the THX Audio Set-up screen  
and choose the setting that most closely corresponds to the  
speaker distance, which will re-optimize the surround  
sound field. ASA is used in two new surround modes;  
THX Ultra2 Cinema and THX Music Mode.  
Re-Equalization  
The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively  
bright and harsh when played back over audio equipment  
in the home because film soundtracks were designed to be  
played back in large movie theatres using very different  
professional equipment. Re-Equalization restores the  
correct tonal balance for watching a movie soundtrack in a  
small home environment.  
Timbre Matching  
THX ULTRA2 CINEMA MODE  
The human ear changes our perception of a sound  
depending on the direction from which the sound is  
coming. In a movie theatre, there is an array of surround  
speakers so that the surround information is all around  
you. In a home theatre, you use only two speakers located  
to the side of your head. The Timbre Matching feature  
filters the information going to the surround speakers so  
that they more closely match the tonal characteristics of  
the sound coming from the front speakers. This ensures  
seamless panning between the front and surround  
speakers.  
THX Ultra2 Cinema mode plays 5.1 movies using all 8  
speakers giving you the best possible movie watching  
experience. In this mode, ASA processing blends the side  
surround speakers and back surround speakers providing  
the optimal mix of ambient and directional surround  
sounds. This mode permits the playback of a non  
Surround EX/ES encoded 5.1 movie to be played back  
over a 7.1 system. DTS-ES (Matrix and 6.1 Discrete) and  
Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded soundtracks will be  
automatically detected, if the appropriate flag has been  
encoded. Some Dolby Digital Surround EX soundtracks  
are missing the digital flag that allows automatic  
switching. If you know that the movie that you are  
watching is encoded in Surround EX, you can manually  
select the THX Surround EX playback mode, otherwise  
THX Ultra2 Cinema mode will apply ASA processing to  
provide optimum replay.

GLOSSARY  
THX MUSIC MODE  
THX Surround EX  
For the replay of multi-channel music the THX Music  
Mode should be selected. In this mode THX ASA  
processing is applied to the surround channels of all 5.1  
encoded music sources such as DTS, and Dolby Digital to  
provide a wide stable rear soundstage. This mode is to be  
used with multi-channel music sources such as DTS 5.1  
music and Dolby Digital 5.1 music.  
THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint  
development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX Ltd.  
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been  
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are  
able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added  
during the mixing of the program. This channel, called  
Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in  
addition to the currently available front left, front center,  
front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer  
channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity  
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings  
more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization  
than ever before.  
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital  
Surround EX technology, when released into the home  
consumer market may exhibit wording to that effect on the  
packaging. A list of movies created using this technology  
can be found on the Dolby web site at www.dolby.com. A  
list of available DVD software titles encoded with this  
technology can be found at www.thx.com.  
B.G.C. (Boundary Gain Compensation)  
If your chosen listening room layout (for practical or  
aesthetic reasons) results in most of the listeners being  
close to the rear wall, the resulting bass level can be  
sufficiently reinforced by the boundary that the overall  
sound quality becomes ‘boomy’. THX Ultra2 receivers  
contain the BGC (Boundary Gain Compensation) feature  
to provide an improved bass balance. BGC can be selected  
by choosing ‘On’ from the ‘BGC’ section of the ‘THX  
Set’ setup menu.  
THX Ultra2  
Before any home theatre component can be THX Ultra2  
certified, it must pass a rigorous series of quality and  
performance tests. Only then can a product feature the  
THX Ultra2 logo, which is your guarantee that the Home  
Theatre products you purchase will give you superb  
performance for many years to come. The THX Ultra2  
specification provides uncompromised eight-channel  
playback of any multi-channel program, whether movie  
soundtracks or music over the widest possible seating  
area. In addition, all Ultra2 controllers and receivers  
incorporate video switching capable of handling all wide-  
bandwidth sources, including HDTV and progressive scan  
DVD, without degrading the picture.  
Only receiver and controller products bearing the THX  
Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX mode,  
faithfully reproduce this new technology in the home.  
This product may also engage the THX Surround EX  
mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material that is  
not Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded. In such case the  
information delivered to the Surround Back channel is  
program dependent and may or may not be very pleasing  
depending on the particular soundtrack and the tastes of  
the individual listener.  
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.
