Digital Sound Projector™
The Digital Sound Projector technology allows one slim
unit to control and steer multiple channels of sound to
generate multi-channel surround sound, thus eliminates
the need for satellite loudspeakers and cabling normally
associated with conventional surround sound systems.
This unit also employs the beam modes that let you enjoy
the surround sound (5 Beam, Stereo plus 3 Beam, 3 Beam,
and My Surround), 2-channel and 5-channel stereo
playback, and My Beam.
My Surround
In addition to the above mentioned beam modes, this unit
is equipped with My Surround beam mode that allows you
to enjoy surround system even in a small listening area.
My Beam
This unit employs My Beam that ensures a clear sound in
a noisy environment. You can adjust the beam angle
manually or automatically using the supplied remote
control to the maximum of 45°, rightward and leftward.

This unit employs the Cinema DSP technology developed
by Yamaha Electronics Corp. that lets you experience
movies at home with all the original dramatic sound
impact.

Neo:6, Music Enhancer, and Neural Surround.
◆ Dolby Digital
This is the standard audio signal format used on various
digital media such as DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD DVD. This
surround technology delivers high-quality digital audio for up
to 5.1 discrete channels to produce a directional and more
realistic effect.
◆ DTS
This is the standard audio signal format used on various
digital media such as DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD DVD. This
surround technology delivers high-quality digital audio for up
to 5.1 discrete channels to produce a directional and more
realistic effect.
◆ Dolby Pro Logic
This sophisticated, matrix decoding technology up-converts
any 2-channel source audio to a 5.1-channel full bandwidth
playback, resulting in a surround sound experience.
◆ Dolby Pro Logic II
This is a redesigned version of Dolby Pro Logic that employs
2 stereo surround channels, a subwoofer, and a greatly
enhanced steering logic. This improved technology provides
an exceptionally stable sound field that simulates 5.1 to a
much greater degree than the original Dolby Pro Logic.
