■ 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 uses YAMAHA original 
DSP technology to combine Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby 
Digital and DTS systems to provide the audiovisual 
experience of movie theater in the listening room of your 
own home.
■ SILENT CINEMA
YAMAHA has developed a natural, realistic sound effect 
DSP algorithm for headphones. Parameters for 
headphones have been set for each sound field program 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 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.
■ Component video signal
With the component video signal system, the video signal 
is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the P
B
 
and P
R
 signals for the chrominance. Color can be 
reproduced more faithfully with this system because each 
of these signals is independent. The component signal is 
also called the “color difference signal” because the 
luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal. A 
monitor with component input jacks is required in order to 
output component signals.
■ Composite video signal
With the composite video signal system, the video signal 
is composed of three basic elements of a video picture: 
color, brightness and synchronization data. A composite 
video jack on a video component transmits these three 
elements combined.
