■ 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 designed for acoustic effects. Since home conditions,
such as room size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can
differ so widely, it is inevitable that there are differences in the sound
heard.
Based on a wealth of actually measured data, Yamaha CINEMA DSP
provides the audiovisual experience of a movie theater in the listening
room of your own home by using the Yamaha original sound field
technology combined with various digital audio systems.
■ SILENT CINEMA
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.
■ Compressed Music Enhancer
The Compressed Music Enhancer feature of this unit enhances your
listening experience by regenerating the missing harmonics in a
compression artifact. As a result, flattened complexity due to the loss
of high-frequency fidelity as well as lack of bass due to the loss of
low-frequency bass is compensated, providing improved performance
of the overall sound system.
■ HDMI signal compatibility
Audio signals
y
• If the input source component can decode the bitstream audio signals of audio commentaries, you can play back the audio sources with the audio
commentaries mixed down by using the DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) connections.
• Refer to the supplied instruction manuals of the input source component, and set the component appropriately.
Notes
• When CPPM copy-protected DVD-Audio is played back, video and audio signals may not be output depending on the type of the DVD player.
• This unit is not compatible with HDCP-incompatible HDMI or DVI components.
• To decode audio bitstream signals on this unit, set the input source component appropriately so that the component outputs the bitstream audio signals
directly (does not decode the bitstream signals on the component). Refer to the supplied instruction manuals for details.
