Yamaha RX-V2700 Owner's Manual

Compression artifacts (such as the MP3 format) are 
created by a lossy compression scheme where the audio is 
resampled to lower the bit rate and to remove sounds that 
are indistinguishable to typical human hearing. 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.

• When you play back DSD sources or PCM sources whose 

sampling frequencies are higher than 48 kHz, this unit samples 
them down to 48 kHz or lower and applies the Compressed 
Music Enhancer mode.

• The Compressed Music Enhancer mode is not effective with 

any of the sound field programs.
