OUTLINE OF THIS UNIT

Dolby Digital and DTS

This unit features a built-in Dolby Digital decoder and a DTS decoder for reproducing surround sounds of sources encoded

with Dolby Digital or DTS. With such state-of-the-art technologies, this unit can bring the same audio experience to your

home as they have brought to feature films in quality theaters around the world.

Take some time now to read more about these features and enjoy the new experiences this system brings to your home

theater.

 DTS (Digital Theater System)

Digital Surround

DTS was developed to replace the 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 offers 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.

 Dolby Surround

Dolby Surround 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 surround channel for special sound effects.

The surround 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.

 Dolby Digital

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.

The wide dynamic range of sound reproduced by the five

full-range channels and precise sound orientation by digital

sound processing provides listeners with excitement and

realism that have never been experienced before.

Typical surround system Virtual 3D

Early sound

Reverberation

Direct sound

Surround sound typically requires several speakers

situated in front of and behind the listening position, which

requires a substantial amount of space that may not always

be available.

In addition to ordinary surround sound reproduction using

several speakers, this unit enables you to enjoy surround

sound effects with only two speakers by using Yamaha’s

unique “Virtual 3D” (three-dimensional) technology.

Virtual 3D, which is used by this unit’s sound field

programs, simulates the surround effect provided by

surround and center speakers, creating “virtual” surround

speakers, as shown, so even with only two front speakers,

you can still enjoy surround sound.

Digital Sound Field Processing (DSP)

When you listen to a performance in a concert hall, jazz

club, or other live music venue, you not only hear the direct

sound coming from the musical instruments and singers,

but also the “early reflections” and natural reverberation.

Early reflections are the initial sound waves that bounce off

the floor, ceiling, and walls. Natural reverberation is made

up of sound waves that gradually attenuate as they bounce

repeatedly off multiple surfaces.

Since the way you hear early reflections and reverberation

depends on the shape and size of the building as well as

the material and construction of the walls and ceiling, each

venue has its own unique “sound,” called its “sound field.”

At Yamaha, we have measured all the elements that make

up a typical sound field—direction and level of the

reflections, band-width characteristics, and delay times—at

famous concert halls and opera houses around the world.

The information gained in this process has been converted

into programs that can be reproduced using Yamaha’s DSP

technology. Using its on-board DSP, this unit can process

any audio source and recreate the atmosphere of the

original venue.

Feature

This program simulates the sound field of a medium-

sized hall, with a beautiful and rich reverberation.

This program simulates the sound field of a famous

New York jazz club.

This program simulates the sound field of a Gothic

church, with the unique effect of sound reverberating

back and forth in a domed ceiling.

This program adds depth and surround effects to

computer games, enhancing the gaming experience.

The realism provided by this program gives the

impression that you’re actually in the scene.

This program produces an enthusiastic atmosphere

and lets you feel that you are in the midst of the

action, as if attending an actual jazz or rock concert.

This program reproduces the surround sound of a

source encoded with Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital

● Be careful not to mix up the left and right connections.

● If you wish to record analog sound signals inputted to

this unit, connect the analog inputs of a tape deck or

MD recorder to this unit’s REC OUT.

Digital connections

If you wish to record digital sound signals inputted to this

unit, connect the optical digital input of an MD recorder or a

DAT deck to this unit’s DIGITAL OPT OUT.

Notes

● When playing an ordinary CD on this unit following

playback of a CD or an LD encoded with DTS, some

operations, such as resetting the input selector keys, may be

required.

● If some data processing (e.g. volume level changes) is applied

to DTS-encoded signals on the CD, DVD or LD player, this

unit will not recognize the signals as DTS-encoded signals.

Because of this, this unit cannot reproduce a DTS-encoded

source played on such a player even if it is connected to this

unit with a digital connection.

● When an error occurs in the player’s digital output data

during playback of an LD or CD encoded with DTS,

playback may be disrupted. If this occurs, stop playback and

repower the player.

● When digital sound signals from the computer are played,

errors in WAV signals, etc. may occur resulting in noise or a

playback failure.

Notes

● Connecting a turntable

A turntable cannot be connected to this unit directly. Use a

commercially available phono preamp to connect a turntable to

this unit, or connect a turntable incorporated with a phono

equalizer amplifier.

● The REC OUT and DIGITAL OPT OUT can be used at the

same time since they output signals independently.

Connecting speakers

To reproduce multi-channel surround sounds with this unit,

connect five speakers (Yamaha NS-U40P, etc.) to this unit

as follows: a pair of front speakers to the FRONT L and R

terminals, a center speaker to the CENTER terminal, and a

pair of surround speakers to the REAR L and R terminals.

When using only one pair of speakers, connect one

speaker to the FRONT L terminal, and the other to the

FRONT R terminal.

* When the supplied Application Software is installed on

the computer connected to this unit, the Application

enables you to make “Speaker Settings”. In the settings,

you can select the speakers to use and not to use, and

also set the sizes of the speakers to use. Refer to page

27 of the separate “OPERATION MANUAL” for details.

Notes

● Use speakers which do not have a built-in amplifier.

● Use speakers whose impedance is 4Ω or more.

● Connect the left speaker to the left speaker connector on

this unit and the right speaker to the right speaker

connector.

● Make sure that the + and – polarity markings of the

speaker cables are observed and set correctly. If these

cables are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack

bass.

CONNECTIONS

Surround speaker (left)

Front speakers:

On both sides of and at approximately the same height as

your computer monitor.

The distances from each speaker to the listening position

must be the same.

Surround speakers:

Behind your listening position or on both sides of the

listening room. According as the condition of your listening

room, place the surround speakers on the floor or the shelf,

or mount them on the wall.

Center speaker:

Precisely between the front speakers.

* The center speaker can be mounted on the monitor if it

is a magnetically shielded type.

Subwoofer:

On the floor. Place the subwoofer on the position where

you can get the optimum bass performance from the

listening position.

Note

Use magnetically-shielded speakers and subwoofer. If the

monitor picture is disturbed even by using the magnetically-

shielded speakers, set the speakers apart from the monitor.

Setting up the speakers

The role of the respective speakers

In a 5.1-channel surround system, the front speakers are

used for reproducing main channel sound (normal stereo

sound) and effect sound. The surround speakers are used

for surround and effect sounds, and the center speaker is

for center channel sound (dialog, etc.). (The center speaker

can be omitted if you prefer, however, the best result is

obtained with a full five speaker system.)

The subwoofer is used for reproducing low frequency

sounds from the front, center and surround channels. The

subwoofer also reproduces sounds of the subwoofer

channel when a DTS or Dolby Digital encoded source is

played.

Recommended speaker placement

Before making connections, place all speakers in their

respective positions. The positioning of the speakers is

important because it controls the overall sound quality of

this system.

Place the speakers depending on your listening position by

following the instructions below.

Connecting an FM antenna

Connect an FM antenna to the FM ANT terminal of this unit by following the figure and procedures below.

(U.S.A. model)

Plugging in this unit

It is recommended to use an outdoor FM antenna for good

reception.

Depending the area, good reception may not be obtained

because it is far from FM radio stations or obstructed by tall

buildings, mountains, and so on. Select a type of antenna

suitable for your area.

Also, to minimize the effects of automobile ignition noise,

locate the antenna as far away from heavy traffic as

possible.

● Use the supplied indoor FM antenna only in areas with

exceptionally good reception.

Insert the antenna connector securely.

* Set the indoor FM antenna as far away from the

computer and the monitor as possible, and set it to a

position where the best reception is obtained.

● For connecting an outdoor FM antenna

Use a 75Ω coaxial cable for connecting the antenna.

If the antenna is located far from this unit, the use of

5C2V cable is recommended to handle the weak radio

signal.

* If you connect an outdoor FM antenna to this unit, do

not connect the indoor FM antenna to this unit.

After completing all connections, plug the AC power

cord into a household AC outlet.

Note

Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if this unit is

not to be used for a long period of time.

Front speaker (R) E-3 OUTLINE OF THIS UNIT Dolby Digital and DTS This unit features a built-in Dolby Digital decoder and a DTS decoder for reproducing surround sounds of sources encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS. With such state-of-the-art technologies, this unit can bring the same audio experience to your home as they have brought to feature films in quality theaters around the world. Take some time now to read more about these features and enjoy the new experiences this system brings to your home theater. Dolby Surround Dolby Surround 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 surround channel for special sound effects. The surround 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. Dolby Digital 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. The wide dynamic range of sound reproduced by the five full-range channels and precise sound orientation by digital sound processing provides listeners with excitement and realism that have never been experienced before. E-4 DTS (Digital Theater System) Digital Surround DTS was developed to replace the 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 offers 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. OUTLINE OF THIS UNIT Virtual 3D FL C FR Virtual 3D, which is used by this unit’s sound field programs, simulates the surround effect provided by surround and center speakers, creating “virtual” surround speakers, as shown, so even with only two front speakers, you can still enjoy surround sound. FL C OUTLINE OF THIS UNIT Surround sound typically requires several speakers situated in front of and behind the listening position, which requires a substantial amount of space that may not always be available. In addition to ordinary surround sound reproduction using several speakers, this unit enables you to enjoy surround sound effects with only two speakers by using Yamaha’s unique “Virtual 3D” (three-dimensional) technology. FR Virtual speakers RL RR RL Typical surround system RR Virtual 3D Digital Sound Field Processing (DSP) When you listen to a performance in a concert hall, jazz club, or other live music venue, you not only hear the direct sound coming from the musical instruments and singers, but also the “early reflections” and natural reverberation. Early reflections are the initial sound waves that bounce off the floor, ceiling, and walls. Natural reverberation is made up of sound waves that gradually attenuate as they bounce repeatedly off multiple surfaces. Since the way you hear early reflections and reverberation depends on the shape and size of the building as well as the material and construction of the walls and ceiling, each venue has its own unique “sound,” called its “sound field.” At Yamaha, we have measured all the elements that make up a typical sound field—direction and level of the reflections, band-width characteristics, and delay times—at famous concert halls and opera houses around the world. The information gained in this process has been converted into programs that can be reproduced using Yamaha’s DSP technology. Using its on-board DSP, this unit can process any audio source and recreate the atmosphere of the original venue.

The surround speakers are used for surround and effect sounds, and the center speaker is for center channel sound (dialog, etc.). (The center speaker can be omitted if you prefer, however, the best result is obtained with a full five speaker system.) The subwoofer is used for reproducing low frequency sounds from the front, center and surround channels. The subwoofer also reproduces sounds of the subwoofer channel when a DTS or Dolby Digital encoded source is played. Recommended speaker placement Before making connections, place all speakers in their respective positions. The positioning of the speakers is important because it controls the overall sound quality of this system. Place the speakers depending on your listening position by following the instructions below. Front speakers: On both sides of and at approximately the same height as your computer monitor. The distances from each speaker to the listening position must be the same. Surround speakers: Behind your listening position or on both sides of the listening room. According as the condition of your listening room, place the surround speakers on the floor or the shelf, or mount them on the wall. Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers. * The center speaker can be mounted on the monitor if it is a magnetically shielded type. Subwoofer: On the floor. Place the subwoofer on the position where you can get the optimum bass performance from the listening position. Note Use magnetically-shielded speakers and subwoofer. If the monitor picture is disturbed even by using the magneticallyshielded speakers, set the speakers apart from the monitor.
