➤ Selecting the sound mode

En

 

The unit is equipped with a variety of sound programs that utilize Yamaha’s original DSP 
technology (CINEMA DSP 3D). It allows you to easily create sound fields like actual 
movie theaters or concert halls in your room and enjoy natural stereoscopic sound 
fields.

• To use the conventional CINEMA DSP, set “CINEMA DSP 3D Mode” (p.115) in the “Setup” menu to “Off”.

• We recommend using front presence speakers in order to experience the full effect of the stereoscopic 

sound fields. However, even when no front presence speakers are connected, the unit creates Virtual 
Presence Speaker (VPS) using the front, center, and surround speakers to produce stereoscopic sound 
fields. When VPS is working, “VIRTUAL” lights up in the front display.

The following sound programs are optimized for viewing video sources, such as 
movies, TV programs, and games.

Sound program

This program creates a sound field that emphasizes the surround feeling 
without disturbing the original acoustic positioning of multichannel audio, 
such as Dolby Digital and DTS. Its design is based on the concept of the 
ideal movie theater, in which the audience is surrounded by beautiful 
reverberations from the left, right, and rear.

This program delivers the scale and grandeur of spectacular movie 
productions. It delivers an expansive sound space to match the 
cinemascope wide-screen, and boasts a broad dynamic range, providing 
everything from small delicate sounds to powerful loud booms.

This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the 
latest Sci-Fi and SFX movies. You can enjoy a variety of 
cinematographically created virtual spaces reproduced with clear 
separation between dialogue, sound effects, and background music.

This program is ideal for reproducing the sound design of action and 
adventure movies precisely. The sound field restrains reverberations, but 
puts emphasis on reproducing a sensation of expansiveness on both sides, 
powerful space expanded widely to the left and right. The restrained depth 
creates a clear and powerful space, while also maintaining the articulation 
of the sounds and the separation of the channels.

This program features stable reverberations that match a wide range of 
movie genres, from serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The 
reverberations are modest, but suitably stereophonic. The sound effects 
and background music are reproduced with a gentle echo that does not 
impinge on the articulation of the dialogue. You’ll never get tired listening for 
long periods.

This program reproduces monaural video sources, such as classic movies, 
in an atmosphere of a good old movie theater. The program creates a 
pleasant space with depth, by adding breadth and the appropriate 
reverberation to the original audio.
