CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.
1. To assure the finest performance, please read this
manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future
reference.
12. To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC
power cord and disconnect the antenna cable when
there is an electrical storm.
2. Install this unit in a cool, dry, clean place — away
from windows, heat sources, sources of excessive
vibration, dust, moisture and cold. Avoid sources of
humming (transformers, motors). To prevent fire or
electrical shock, do not expose the unit to rain or
water.
13. Grounding or polarization — Precautions should be
taken so that the grounding or polarization of the unit
is not defeated.
3. Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the
unit, contact your dealer.
4. Do not use force on switches, controls or connection
cables. When moving the unit, first disconnect the
power cord and then the cables connected to other
component. Never pull the cables themselves.
5. The openings on the cover assure proper ventilation
of the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the
temperature inside the unit will rise rapidly.
Therefore, avoid placing objects against these
openings, and install the unit in a well-ventilated area
to prevent fire and damage.
Be sure to allow a space of at least 20 cm behind,
20 cm on both sides and 30 cm above the top panel
of the unit to prevent fire and damage.
6. The voltage used must be the same as that specified
on this unit. Using this unit with a higher voltage than
specified is dangerous and may result in fire or other
accidents. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for
any damage resulting from the use of this unit with a
voltage other than that specified.
7. Digital signals generated by this unit may interfere
with other component such as tuners, receivers and
TVs. Move this unit farther away from such
component if interference is observed.
8. Always set VOLUME to the “m” position before
starting the audio source play. Increase the volume
gradually to an appropriate level after playback has
been started.
9. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical
solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean,
dry cloth.
10. Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section
regarding common operating errors before
concluding that the unit is faulty.
11. When not planning to use this unit for a long period
of time (e.g., a vacation), disconnect the AC power
cord from the wall outlet.
14. AC outlet — Do not connect audio component to the
AC outlet on the rear panel if that component
requires more power than the outlet is rated to
provide.
This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source
as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this
unit itself is turned off. This state is called the standby
mode. In this state, this unit is designed to consume a
very small quantity of power.
■ For U.K. customers
If the socket outlets in the home are not suitable for the plug
supplied with this appliance, it should be cut off and an
appropriate 3 pin plug fitted. For details, refer to the
instructions described below.
Note
• The plug severed from the mains lead must be destroyed, as a
plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged in a live
socket outlet.
■ Special Instructions for U.K. Model
IMPORTANT
THE WIRES IN MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:
Blue: NEUTRAL
Brown: LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
apparatus may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed
as follows:
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or
coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN
must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter L or coloured RED.
Making sure that neither core is connected to the earth
terminal of the three pin plug.

PREPARATION
SPEAKER SETUP
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality
with a 5-speaker system, using main speakers, rear speakers
and a center speaker. If you use different brands of speakers
(with different tonal qualities) in your system, the tone of a
moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift
smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the
same manufacture or speakers with the same tonal quality.
■ Use of a subwoofer expands your
sound field
Subwoofer
Main
speaker (L)
1.8 m
Center speaker
Rear speaker (L)
■ Main speakers
Place the right and left main speakers an equal distance
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each
speaker from each side of the TV monitor should be the
same.
■ Rear speakers
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing
slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) above the
floor.
■ Center speaker
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face
of your TV monitor. Place the speaker as close to the
monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the
monitor and centrally between the main speakers.
Note
• If the center speaker is not used, the center channel sound will be
heard from the right and left main speakers. In that case,
“CENTER SP” on the SET MENU is set to the NONE position.
(Refer to page 39 for details.)
ADVANCED OPERATION
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) channel with high fidelity when playing back a
source encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS. The YAMAHA
Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System is ideal for
natural and lively bass reproduction.
Rear speaker (R)
BASIC OPERATION
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 highperformance models that can reproduce sounds over the full
range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.
Refer to the following diagram when you place the
speakers.
Main speaker (R)
PREPARATION
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.
Speaker Placement
INTRODUCTION
Speakers to Be Used
■ Subwoofer
APPENDIX
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 main speakers. Turn it slightly
toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reflections.
CAUTION
English
Some types of speakers interfere with a TV monitor. If
this problem occurs, move the speakers away from the
monitor. If you cannot avoid installing the center speaker
or subwoofer near the TV monitor, use magnetically
shielded speakers.

CONNECTIONS
Before Connecting Components
CAUTION
Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been
completed.
Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Some
components require different connection methods and have different terminal names. Refer to the instructions for each
component to be connected to this unit.
When you connect other YAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or changer), connect
it to the terminals with the same number labels as !, #, $ etc. YAMAHA applies this labeling system to all its products.
Use RCA-type pin plug cables for connecting audio/video components with the exception described later.
The input and output terminals for pin plugs can be distinguished as follows:
Yellow
video signals (composite)
V
V
White
analog audio signals for the left channel
L

BASIC OPERATION
You may be unable to obtain good FM radio reception
depending on your local conditions (distance from the
broadcasting station, interposing buildings and
mountains, etc.). Consult your dealer or authorized service
center and be sure to install an antenna that suits your local
conditions.
Install the outdoor FM antenna (commercially available) in
a high place as far away from any roads as possible to avoid

Note
• Do not connect an outdoor FM antenna and the indoor FM
antenna at the same time.
INTRODUCTION
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal
strength. However, a properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor
reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality.

PLAYING A SOURCE
■ Notes on playing a source
encoded with DTS
• If “DATA ERROR” appears on the display while playing an LD
source encoded with DTS, stop playback and turn the player off
and then on again.
• If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any
way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you
make a digital connection between this unit and the player.
• If you play an LD source encoded with DTS and set the input
mode to ANALOG, there will be the noise of an unprocessed
DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to
connect the source to the digital input terminal and set the input
mode to AUTO or DTS.
• If you switch the input mode to ANALOG while playing a source
encoded with a DTS signal, this unit reproduces no sound.
• If you play a source encoded with DTS and set the input mode to
AUTO, there will be a short noise at first while the unit
recognizes the DTS signal and turns on 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 source
encoded with DTS with the input mode setting left to AUTO, this
unit automatically switches to the “DTS-decoding” mode to
prevent noise from being generated during subsequent operation.
(The “t” indicator lights up on the display.) The “t”
indicator will flash immediately after playback of a source
encoded with DTS has finished. Only a source encoded with DTS
can be played back while this indicator is flashing. If you want to
play a normal PCM source soon, set the input mode back to
AUTO.
■ Notes on playing an LD source
• Some audio/video components, such as an LD player, output
different audio signals through their analog and digital terminals.
Change the input mode as necessary.
• If the input mode is set to AUTO for the LD source, this unit
automatically determines which type of signal the LD source
contains. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the
decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and
reproduces 5.1 channel sound.
• If the LD player is transmitting signals by a non-normal method,
this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital or DTS signal. In this
case, the decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog.
• If the LD source does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect
the LD player to the analog terminals and set the input mode to
AUTO or ANALOG.
• While you are operating the LD player and playing a disc encoded
with Dolby Digital, if you switch from the pause or chapter
forwarding function to normal playback, you may hear the PCM
or analog sound an instant before the Dolby Digital sound is
played.
■ Notes on the digital signal
The digital input terminal of this unit can also handle
96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals. (To utilize this, use a
source that supports 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals
and set the player for digital output. Refer to the instructions
for the player.) Note the following when a 96-kHz sampling
24-bit digital signal is input to this unit.
1. The following indicator will appear on the display.
2. DSP programs cannot be selected. Sound will be output

• Only RDS stations with sufficient signal strength are stored by
automatic preset tuning. If the station you want to store is weak in
signal strength, tune in to it manually in monaural mode and store
it by using the manual preset tuning method. (There may be a
case that this unit cannot receive a station which could be
received by using the automatic tuning method. This is because
this unit receives a large amount of PI (Program Identification)
data along with the station.)

■ RT (Radio Text) mode:
• When an RDS station is being received, do not press RDS
MODE/FREQ until one or more RDS mode indicators light up on
the display. If you press the button before the indicators 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.
• RDS data not offered by the station cannot be selected.
• 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 may not be displayed even if other RDS modes
(PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.
• RDS data cannot sometimes be receive under poor reception
conditions. If so, press TUNING MODE so that the “AUTO”
indicator goes off from the display. Although the reception mode
is changed to monaural by this operation, when you change the

INTRODUCTION
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor (DSP). This processor allows you to
electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theaterlike experience in your listening room. You can create outstanding audio sound by selecting a suitable DSP program (this
will, of course, depend on what you are listening to).
The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that

FEATURES
This program creates the extremely wide sound
field of a movie theater. It precisely reproduces
the source sound in detail, giving both the video
and the sound field incredible reality. It is ideal
for any kind of video source encoded with
Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital or DTS
(especially large-scale movie productions).
Clearly reproduces dialog and sound effects in
the latest sound form of science fiction films,
thus creating a broad and expansive cinematic
space amid the silence. You can enjoy science
fiction films in a virtual-space sound field that
includes Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital and
DTS-encoded software employing the most
advanced techniques.
Ideal for precisely reproducing the sound of the
newest multi-track films. The sound field is
made to be similar to that of the newest movie
theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field
itself are restrained as much as possible. The
data for the sound field of an opera house are
used for the front presence, so the threedimensional feeling of the sound field is
emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on
the screen. By using the data for the sound field
of a concert hall on the surround sound field,
powerful reverberations are generated. You can
enjoy watching action, adventure movies, etc.
with strong presence.
This program is for reproducing sounds on a
multi-track film, and is characterized by a soft
and extensive sound field. The front presence of
the sound field is relatively narrow. It spatially
spreads all around and toward the screen,
restraining echo effect of conversations without
losing clarity. For the surround sound field, the
harmony of music or chorus sounds beautifully
in a wide space at the rear of the sound field.

APPENDIX
Digital sound fields are created in the presence zone and
independently on the left and right surround zones of the
Dolby Digital-decoded or DTS-decoded sound field. 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.

1. CENTER SP
3. MAIN SP
Choices: LARGE/SMALL
Preset position: LARGE
SML (Small)
Select this position if you use a center speaker that is
smaller than the main speakers. In this position, low bass
signals (below 90 Hz) on the center channel are distributed
to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal (or to the right and
left main speakers if “BASS OUT” is set to the MAIN
position).
2. REAR SP
Choices: LARGE/SMALL
Preset position: LARGE
SW/BOTH
Select either the SW or BOTH position if your system
includes a subwoofer. In either position, signals on the LFE
channel and low bass signals (below 90 Hz) on the center
and rear channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER
OUTPUT terminal if “CENTER SP” is set to the SML or
NONE position and “REAR SP” is set to the SMALL
position. In the SW position, low bass signals on the main
channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT
terminal if “MAIN SP” is set to the SMALL position. In the
BOTH position, low bass signals on the main channels are
directed to both the main speakers and the SUBWOOFER
OUTPUT terminal.
Note
• When playing a 2-channel source (tape, MD, CD, video
cassette etc.), select the BOTH position to direct low bass signals
(below 90 Hz) to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal.
MAIN
Select this position if your system does not include a
subwoofer. In this position, besides full-range signals on the
main channels, signals on the LFE channel and other low
bass signals (below 90 Hz) that are distributed from other
channels are directed to the right and left main speakers.
APPENDIX
SMALL
Select this position if your rear speakers do not have high
ability for bass reproduction. In this position, low bass
signals (below 90 Hz) on the rear channels are distributed to
the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal (or to the right and
left main speakers if “BASS OUT” is set to the MAIN
position).
Choices: SW/MAIN/BOTH
Preset position: BOTH
ADVANCED OPERATION
LARGE
Select this position if your rear speakers have high ability
for bass reproduction, or if a subwoofer is connected in
parallel to the rear speaker. In this position, full-range
signals on the rear channels are directed to the rear speakers.
4. BASS OUT
BASIC OPERATION
NONE
Select this position if you do not have a center speaker
(4-speaker system). In this position, full-range signals on
the center channel are directed to the right and left main
speakers.
SMALL
Select this position if your main speakers do not have high
ability for bass reproduction. However, if your system does

Choices: NORM (Normal)/–10 dB
Preset position: NORM (Normal)
NORM (Normal)
Normally select this position.
–10 dB
Select this position if the sound output from the main
speakers is too loud and cannot be balanced with the sound
output from the center and rear speakers. In this position,
the sound output from the main speakers is attenuated.
Notes
• The setting of “CENTER SP”, “REAR SP”, “MAIN SP” and
“BASS OUT” have no effect on a source connected to the
EXTERNAL DECODER INPUT terminals on the rear of this
unit.
• Once you have adjusted appropriately for “CENTER SP”, “REAR
SP”, “MAIN SP”, “BASS OUT” and “MAIN LVL”, you do not
have to change any settings unless your speaker system is
modified.
6. D.D. LFE (Adjusting the output
level of the LFE channel for Dolby
Digital)
Control range: –20 dB to 0 dB (in 1 dB steps)
Preset value: 0 dB
Note
• This adjustment is only effective when Dolby Digital is being
decoded and the selected source encoded with Dolby Digital
contains 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 directed to the same speakers, the ratio of the LFE signal
level to the level of the other signals can be adjusted.
7. D-RANGE (Adjusting the dynamic
range)
Choices: MAX/STD (Standard)/MIN
Preset position: MAX
Note
• This adjustment is only effective 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 on 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. 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 source at a low level.
Note
• 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.

Preset value: 0 ms
The input mode for a source connected to the D-TV input
terminals of this unit can be automatically set when the
power of this unit is turned on. Refer to page 23 for details
about the input mode.

Preset position: AUTO
APPENDIX
The input mode for a source connected to the CBL/SAT
input terminals of this unit can be automatically set when
the power of this unit is turned on. Refer to page 23 for
details about the input mode.
ADVANCED OPERATION
This makes 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 right and left
main speaker to your listening position.
Choices: AUTO/LAST
Preset position: AUTO
BASIC OPERATION
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.
11.TV INPUT (Selecting the initial
input mode for a source connected
to the D-TV input terminals)
PREPARATION
This adjusts the output level of the LFE channel. If the LFE
signals are mixed with signals of other channels and they
are directed to the same speakers, the ratio of the LFE signal
level to the level of the other signals can be adjusted.
If you wish to prevent accidental alterations to the settings
of the SET MENU and other adjustments on this unit, select
the ON position. The following settings on this unit can be

DELAY TIME AND SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS
When using the digital sound field processor with the Dolby
Pro Logic decoder, Dolby Digital decoder or DTS decoder,
you can adjust the delay time between the main sound and
sound effect, and each speaker’s output level as you wish.
Note
• When high-rate 96-kHz sampling 24-bit digital signals are input
to this unit, the delay time and speaker output levels cannot be
adjusted.
You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of
the sound from the main speakers and the beginning of the
sound effect from the rear speakers. The larger the value,
the later the sound effect is generated. The delay time can be
individually adjusted to all DSP programs.
Notes
• Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with some
sources.
• The sound is momentarily interrupted while adjusting the delay
time.

• The sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted
when the input signal is analog, PCM audio, or encoded with
Dolby Digital in 2-channel.
• If “CENTER SP” on the SET MENU is set to the NONE position,
the sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted.
This is because the center channel sound is automatically output
from the right and left main speakers.
• Once the sound output level has been adjusted, the level will be
the same for all DSP programs.

SYMPTOM
CAUSE
REMEDY
Refer to
page
A loud hissing noise is
heard when playing back
a source encoded with
DTS.
The player which plays back the source is not
connected to a digital audio signal input
terminal of this unit.
The player must be connected to a digital audio
signal input terminal of this unit besides the
analog audio signal terminal connections.
14
The input mode is set to ANALOG on this unit.
Set a proper input mode to turn on the built-in
DTS decoder.
23
A percussive noise is
heard when playing back
a source encoded with
DTS.
If the input mode is set to AUTO, depending on
some sources, there may be a noise heard while
this unit is identifying the format of the input
signal.
Set the input mode of the currently selected
input source to DTS.
23
No sound is heard when
playing back a source
encoded with DTS, even
if the input mode is set
to AUTO on this unit.
The built-in DTS decoder does not function
because the player has a digital volume control
and it is set at a position other than
“maximum,” “neutral” or “ineffective.”
Set the player’s digital volume control at the
maximum, neutral or ineffective position.
—
No sound is heard when
playing back an MD or
DAT on which has been
recorded a source
encoded with DTS.
A source encoded with DTS cannot be recorded
on an MD or DAT.
No sound is heard when
playing back a source
(CD, etc.) even if the
currently selected input
mode is AUTO.
In the AUTO mode, the DTS-decoding mode
cannot be automatically changed to the normal
(PCM) digital signal input mode.
—
Set the input mode to AUTO again.
24
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, only a loud hissing noise will be heard when you play back the source.
• The “t” indicator will flash when the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or skip operation is performed while playing back a
source encoded with DTS. If this status continues for 30 or more seconds, the unit will automatically switch from DTS-decoding mode to
PCM digital signal input mode and the “t” indicator will go out.

GLOSSARY
■ Dolby Surround
■ CINEMA DSP CINEMA DSP
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 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.
The Dolby Surround and Dolby Digital 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.
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, Dolby
Digital or DTS Digital Surround sounds.
The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those
programs that are created by the combination of YAMAHA
DSP technology and Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital or
DTS.
■ 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.
■ 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 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.
■ LFE 0.1 Channel
This channel is for reproduction of low bass signals. The
frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz. This
channel is called the channel 0.1 because it only reproduces
a low frequency range compared to the full-range from
20 Hz to 20 kHz that is reproduced by the 5 channels in a
Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel system.
■ S VIDEO Signal
The S VIDEO signal is separated and transmitted as the Y
signal which indicates the luminance and the C signal which
indicates the chroma of the video signal (composite signal).
Using the S VIDEO terminal eliminates video signal
transmission loss and allows recording and playback of
even more beautiful images.
