DTS Digital Surround

DTS (Digital Theater Systems) system was developed to replace analog soundtracks of movies with six discrete channels of digital soundtracks, and now, it is installed in many theaters around the world. The DTS digital playback system changed the way we experienced movies in theaters with six discrete channels of superb digital audio. The DTS technology, through intense research and development, made it possible to deliver a similar encode/decode discrete technology to home audio surroundsound entertainment. The DTS Digital Surround is an encode/decode system which delivers six channels of master-quality, 20-bit audio; technically 5.1 channels, which means 5 full-range (left, center, right and two surround) channels, plus a subwoofer (LFE) channel (as 0.1). It is compatible with the 5.1 speaker configurations that are currently available for home theater systems The DTS Digital Surround algorithm is designed to encode the six channels of 20-bit audio onto some laserdiscs, compact discs and DVDs with considerably less data-compression. By using the DTS decoder built into this unit, you can experience the dramatic realism and impact of the DTS installed theaters high quality sound in your home. Laserdisc, compact disc and DVD are home audio format within which DTS can represent its high quality multi-channel audio. (In addition to movies on laserdiscs, many exciting new multi-channel music recordings will also become available in the form of DTS-encoded compact discs.)

CINEMA DSP: Dolby Surround + DSP / DTS + DSP
The Dolby Surround sound and DTS systems show their full ability in a large movie theater, because movie sounds are originally designed to be reproduced in a large movie theater that uses a multitude of speakers. Trying to create a sound environment similar to that of a movie theater in your home is difficult because of the room size, material inside the walls, the number of speakers, and so on. In other words, your listening room is very different from a movie theater. However, Yamaha DSP technology allows you to create nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in your home by compensating for the lack of presence and dynamics in the listening room with original digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround or DTS Digital Surround sounds.

CINEMA DSP

The YAMAHA CINEMA DSP logo indicates those programs that are created by the combination of YAMAHA DSP technology and Dolby Surround or DTS.

Notes on input mode selection q The input mode for a TV/DBS source is selected with function 12. TV/DBS INPUT in the SET MENU mode. This unit will be automatically set to the selected input mode when the power is turned on. q Set the input mode to the AUTO mode to play a DVD/LD source encoded with Dolby Digital. q Select the ANALOG mode to play a normal 2-channel source with a Dolby Pro Logic Surround program. q The sound output may be interrupted in some LD and DVD players in the following situation: The input mode is set to AUTO. A search is made while playing the disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, then disc playing is restored. The sound output is interrupted for a moment because the digital input signal was selected again. q The input mode cannot be changed for PHONO, TUNER, TAPE/MD, VCR and VIDEO AUX sources because only analog signals are used. q The present input mode appears on the front display and monitor screen when the input source is changed to DVD/LD, CD or TV/DBS, or the input mode is changed. The present input signal is also shown on the monitor screen when the input mode is changed to AUTO, as shown below.
This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the power of this unit. In this mode, input signal is automatically selected by the following order of priority. 1. Digital signal encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, or normal digital input signals (PCM) 2. Analog input signal (ANALOG) * For a DVD/LD source, if digital signals are input from both of the OPTICAL and COAXIAL terminals, the digital signal from the COAXIAL terminal is selected.
In this mode, only digital input signals encoded with DTS is selected even though other signals are input at the same time.

ANALOG

In this mode, only analog input signals are selected even though digital signals are input at the same time. Select this mode when you want to use analog input signals instead of digital input signals.
* However, the present input signal will not be shown when the input mode is switched during the speaker test mode. Only AUTO will be displayed.
Notes on playing a source encoded with DTS q Select the DTS mode when playing an LD or CD source encoded with DTS. (Red dts indicator is illuminated on the display panel.) If the AUTO mode is selected, a noise may be heard just after playback begins. Do not play these sources in the ANALOG mode because only background noise will be output from the speakers. q This unit is automatically locked in the DTS decoding mode when playing a CD or LD source encoded with DTS in the AUTO mode to prevent background noise in future operation. The red dts indicator will be flashing. In this mode, no sound will be heard if a disc with normal digital signals (PCM) is played from a CD or LD source. To play back the disc normally, press the INPUT MODE button on the front panel, or, the input selector key for the current source on the remote controller.

Changing the RDS modes

When an RDS station is received, PS, PTY, RT and/or CT that correspond to the RDS data services employed by the station light up on the display. By pressing the RDS MODE/FREQ button once or more, you can change the display mode among the RDS modes employed by the received station in the order shown below. (The RDS mode not employed by the station cannot be selected.) Illumination of the indicator on the head of the name of an RDS mode shows that the corresponding RDS mode is now selected. * When an RDS station is received, do not press the RDS MODE/FREQ button until one or more names of RDS modes light up on the display. If the button is pressed before one or more names light up on the display, the mode cannot be changed. This is because the unit has not received all of the RDS data on the station yet. * If no name of RDS mode lights up on the display, the mode cannot be changed.

PS mode

The name of the station being received is displayed. If the station does not employ the PS data service, this mode will not be selected.

PTY mode

The type of the program currently broadcasted on the station is displayed. If the station does not employ the PTY data service, this mode will not be selected. (You can make this unit search for a station which is broadcasting a program of your desired program type. For details, refer to the next page.)

To enjoy a video source encoded with Dolby Pro Logic Surround, Dolby Digital or DTS
When you select the program No. 1, 2 or 3, and the input signal of the source is 2-channel stereo, Dolby Pro Logic Surround is decoded. When some program is selected and the input signal of the source is encoded with Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital is automatically decoded. When some program is selected and the input signal of the source is encoded with DTS, DTS is automatically decoded. The following indicators on the display panel show you what sound processing is being made.
Note If you change the LD (or CD) being played back with DTS decoded to another disc not encoded with DTS when the red dts indicator is illuminated, playing back the newly selected disc will output no sound. In this state, the red dts indicator flashes to show that this unit is locked in the DTS-decoding mode. To play back the disc normally, change the current DTSdecoding mode to another mode by pressing an input selector key on the remote controller or the INPUT MODE button on the front panel so that the red dts indicator turns off.
To cancel the effect sound
The EFFECT button on the front panel or the EFCT ON/OFF key on the remote controller make it simple to compare the normal stereo sound with the fully processed effect sound. To cancel the effect sound and monitor only the main sound, press the EFCT ON/OFF key or the EFFECT button. Press the EFCT ON/OFF key or the EFFECT button a second time to restore the effect sound. Front panel

DIGITAL PRO LOGIC DSP

DIGITAL SOURCE AC 3 DTS PCM

The display panel or the monitor screen will show the selected subprogram according to the type of the decoding. Notes Dolby Digital will not be decoded if the source that is not encoded with Dolby Digital. DTS will not be decoded if the source that is not encoded with DTS. If the input signals of source encoded with Dolby Digital are in 2-channels only, the sound processing for them is similar to that for analog or PCM audio signals.

Notes q If the effect sound is canceled when signals encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS are input to this unit, signals of all channels are mixed and are output from the main speakers.
If the EFFECT button or the EFCT ON/OFF key is pressed to turn effect sounds off when Dolby Digital or DTS is decoded, it may happen that sound is output faintly or not output normally depending on a source. In that case, press the EFFECT button or the EFCT ON/OFF key to turn effect sounds ON, or use input signals not encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS.

Repeat steps 1 and 2 to make adjustments on the other speaker(s).
Notes q If the function 1. CENTER SPEAKER in the SET MENU mode is set in the NONE position, the sound output level of the center speaker cannot be adjusted. This is because in this mode, the center sound is automatically output from the left and right main speakers.
Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in all the digital sound field programs.
The value of each speaker output level you set the last time will remain memorized even when this unit is in the standby mode. However, if the power cord is disconnected for more than one week, these values will be automatically changed to the factory default settings.

This program is for reproducing sounds on a multi-track film, and characterized by a soft and extensive sound field. The front presence side of the sound field is relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen, restraining echo effect of conversations without losing clarity. For the surround side, the harmony of music or chorus sounds beautifully in a wide space at the rear of the sound field.
For program No. 4 and 5 only, indicators light up as follows. DSP When the input signal is analog or PCM audio: ( ) When the input signal is encoded with the Dolby Digital (not in 2 channels): ( DSP When the input signal is encoded with the DTS: ( ) PROGRAM
FEATURE This program is designed specifically to enhance mono source programs. Compared to a strictly mono setting, the sound image created in this mode is wider and slightly forward of the speaker pair, lending an immediacy to the overall sound. It is particularly effective when used with old mono movies, news broadcasts and dialog. This program is furnished with a tight sound field in which the sound will not spread excessively on the front side, but the rear surround side produces a dynamic sound expansion. This program is the most suitable for sports programs.

FEATURE This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a very lively city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, immediate sound. This program is ideally suited for rock music. You will experience a very dynamic or lively sound field. This is a small, cozy jazz club with a low ceiling. The sound is very close and intimate. This program recreates the acoustic environment of a big church with a high pointed dome and columns along the sides. This interior produces very long reverberations. In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the main speakers, creating an expansive large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music are suited for this sound field.

6. DOLBY DGTL SET LFE LEVEL [Adjusting the output level at the LFE (low frequency effect) channel]
Control range: 20 dB to 0 dB Preset value: 0 dB This adjustment is effective only when Dolby Digital is decoded and the signals of the selected source encoded with Dolby Digital contain LFE signals.
Adjusts the output level at the LFE (low frequency effect) channel. If the LFE signals are mixed with signals of other channels and they are output from the same speakers, the ratio of LFE signals to other signals can be adjusted. (Refer to page 5 for details about the LFE channel.)
7. DOLBY DGTL SET DYNAMIC RANGE (Adjusting dynamic range)
Choices: MAX/STD/MIN Preset position: MAX This adjustment is effective only when Dolby Digital is decoded.
Dynamic range is the difference between the maximum level and the minimum level of sounds. Sounds on a movie originally designed for movie theaters feature very wide dynamic range. Dolby Digital technology can bring the original sound track into a home audio format with this wide dynamic range unchanged. Powerful sounds of extremely wide dynamic range are not always suitable for home use. Depending upon the condition of your listening environment, it may not be possible to increase the sound output level as high as a movie theater. However, in a level suitable for listening in your room, the low level parts of source sound cannot be heard well because they will be lost among noises in your environment. Dolby Digital technology also made it possible to reduce an original sound tracks dynamic range for a home audio format by compressing the data of sound.
In this position, a source encoded with Dolby Digital is reproduced in the original sound tracks wide dynamic range providing you with powerful sounds like a movie theater. Selecting this position will be more ideal if you can listen to a source in a high output level in a room specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment.

The internal microcomputer has been frozen by an external electric shock (lightning, excessive static electricity, etc.) or power supply with low voltage. The source unit is connected to this unit between digital terminals only. This unit is too close to the affected equipment. This unit is in the standby mode.
What to Do Set to the OFF position. Check the source, or turn off the unit playing back the source and then turn on again.
This unit does not operate properly.
Unplug the AC power cord from the wall AC outlet, and then plug in again after about one minute. Make additional connection between analog terminals. Move the unit further away from the affected equipment. Turn the power to this unit on.
A source cannot be recorded by a tape deck or VCR connected to this unit. Noise from nearby TV or tuner. The sound is degraded when listening with the headphones connected to the compact disc player or tape deck that is connected with this unit.
Problem The remote controller does not work. The remote controller does not function properly. Cause The batteries of this remote controller are weak. Wrong distance or angle. What to Do Replace the batteries with new ones. The remote controller will function from a maximum range of 6 meters, no more than 30 degrees off-axis from the front panel. Change position of the main unit.
Direct sunlight or lighting (of an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.) is striking the remote control sensor of the main unit. This unit or another component cannot be controlled with the remote controller. The selector dial of the remote controller is not set at the proper position. The code for controlling the component is not preset to the remote controller.
Set the selector dial to the proper position. Enter the code for controlling the component in the corresponding position of the remote controller.
Problem FM stereo reception is noisy. Cause Because of the characteristics of FM stereo broadcasts, this is limited to cases where the transmitter is too far away or the antenna input is poor. There is multipath interference. What to Do Check the antenna connections. Try using a high quality directional FM antenna. Set the TUNING MODE button to the manual tuning mode. Adjust antenna placement to eliminate multipath interference. Use the manual tuning method. Use a high quality directional FM antenna. Repeat the presetting procedure. Tighten the AM loop antenna connections and rotate it for best reception. Use the manual tuning method. There are continuous crackling and hissing noises. There are buzzing and whining noises (especially in the evening). Noises result from lightning, fluorescent lamps, motors, thermostats and other electrical equipment. A television set is being used nearby. Use an outdoor antenna and a ground wire. This will help somewhat but it is difficult to eliminate all the noises. Relocate this unit away from the TV. AM

Connecting to digital (OPTICAL and COAXIAL) terminals
If your CD player, LD player, DVD player, TV/satellite tuner, etc. are equipped with coaxial or optical digital audio signal output terminals, they can be connected to this units COAXIAL or OPTICAL, or both terminals. Digital audio signals are transmitted with less loss than analog audio signals. In addition, digital audio signal connections are necessary, especially for an LD player, a DVD player or a CD player to send signals encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS to this unit. To make an optical digital connection between this unit and an external unit, remove the cover from each optical terminal, and then connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber cable that conforms to EIAJ standards. Other cables might not function correctly. Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) terminal of this unit, you must keep the unit connected with the same named analog audio signal terminals of this unit, because digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck or VCR connected to this unit. You can switch the selection of input signals between digital and analog easily. (See page 36 for details.)

Using digital sound field processor (DSP)
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in your listening room. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to), and adding desired adjustments. In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Digital decoder and a Dolby Pro Logic decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of sources encoded with Dolby Surround, and a DTS decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of sources encoded with DTS. The operation of these decoders can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP program including a combined operation of YAMAHA DSP and the Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or DTS decoder. This unit has 10 programs for digital sound field processing; 5 programs for Audio sources and 5 programs for Audio/Video sources. In addition, some programs have two subprograms. All programs contain parameters that can be adjusted to the listeners taste. For details about digital sound field programs, refer to pages 48 to 50.

This program is for reproducing sounds on a multi-track film, and characterized by a soft and extensive sound field. The front presence side of the sound field is relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen, restraining echo effect of conversations without losing clarity. For the surround side, the harmony of music or chorus sounds beautifully in a wide space at the rear of the sound field.
For program No. 4 and 5 only, indicators light up as follows. DSP When the input signal is analog or PCM audio: ( ) When the input signal is encoded with the Dolby Digital (not in 2 channels): ( DSP When the input signal is encoded with the DTS: ( ) PROGRAM
FEATURE This program is designed specifically to enhance mono source programs. Compared to a strictly mono setting, the sound image created in this mode is wider and slightly forward of the speaker pair, lending an immediacy to the overall sound. It is particularly effective when used with old mono movies, news broadcasts and dialog. This program is furnished with a tight sound field in which the sound will not spread excessively on the front side, but the rear surround side produces a dynamic sound expansion. This program is the most suitable for sports programs.
Program No. 6 to 10: Hi-Fi DSP programs (for audio sources)
Speaker output: main, rear (
FEATURE This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a very lively city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, immediate sound. This program is ideally suited for rock music. You will experience a very dynamic or lively sound field. This is a small, cozy jazz club with a low ceiling. The sound is very close and intimate. This program recreates the acoustic environment of a big church with a high pointed dome and columns along the sides. This interior produces very long reverberations. In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the main speakers, creating an expansive large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music are suited for this sound field.

The selected program name and its parameters will be displayed on the monitor screen. The arrow-shaped cursor points to the first parameter or subprogram name.
Descriptions of the digital sound field parameters
Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.

q ROOM SIZE

How it Affects the Sound:
Changes the apparent size of the music venue. The larger the value, the larger the simulated room will sound.
P. ROOM SIZE (Presence Room Size)
Adjusts the apparent space size of the front presence sound field. The larger the value, the longer the interval between reflections becomes, which increases the depth of the sound source.

What it Does:

Adjusts the timing between the early reflections. Early reflections are the first group of reflections you hear before the subsequent, dense reverberation begins.
S. ROOM SIZE (Surround Room Size)
Adjusts the apparent space size of the rear surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround sound field becomes.

Control Range:

0.1 2.0 Standard setting is 1.0. Changing this parameter from 1 to 2 increases the apparent volume of the room eight times (length, width, and height all doubled). Level Direct sound Early reflections Level
Direct sound Early reflections

Time Small space

Time Large space
q INIT. DELAY (Initial Delay)
Changes the apparent distance from the source sound. Since the distance between a sound source and a reflective surface determines the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection, this parameter changes the location of the sound source within the acoustic environment.
P. INIT. DLY (Presence Initial Delay)
Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection on the presence side of the sound field. The larger the value, the later the first reflection begins.

milliseconds

Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection heard by the listener.

The code for controlling the component is not preset to the remote controller.
Set the selector dial to the proper position. Enter the code for controlling the component in the corresponding position of the remote controller.
Problem FM stereo reception is noisy. Cause Because of the characteristics of FM stereo broadcasts, this is limited to cases where the transmitter is too far away or the antenna input is poor. There is multipath interference. What to Do Check the antenna connections. Try using a high quality directional FM antenna. Set the TUNING MODE button to the manual tuning mode. Adjust antenna placement to eliminate multipath interference. Use the manual tuning method. Use a high quality directional FM antenna. Repeat the presetting procedure. Tighten the AM loop antenna connections and rotate it for best reception. Use the manual tuning method. There are continuous crackling and hissing noises. There are buzzing and whining noises (especially in the evening). Noises result from lightning, fluorescent lamps, motors, thermostats and other electrical equipment. A television set is being used nearby. Use an outdoor antenna and a ground wire. This will help somewhat but it is difficult to eliminate all the noises. Relocate this unit away from the TV. AM
There is distortion and clear reception cannot be obtained even with a good FM antenna. A desired station cannot be tuned in with the automatic tuning method. Previously preset stations can no longer be tuned in. A desired station cannot be tuned in with the automatic tuning method.
The station is too weak. This unit has been unplugged for a long period. Weak signal or loose antenna connections.
<For China and General models only>
Although you make the operation for recalling a preset station, the station cannot be tuned in, or a station other than the preset one is tuned in. Some memory of the preset stations was modified because the setting of the FREQUENCY STEP switch was changed after storing stations. Repeat storing stations by following the preset tuning procedure.
When playing back a source encoded with DTS:
Problem A loud hissing noise is heard when you play back a source encoded with DTS. Cause The player which plays back the source is not connected to a digital audio signal input terminal of this unit. The ANALOG input mode is selected on this unit. A percussive noise is heard when you begin playing back a source encoded with DTS. No sound is heard when you play back a source encoded with DTS, even though the AUTO or DTS input mode is selected on this unit. No sound is heard when you play back an MD onto which you have recorded a source encoded with DTS. No sound is heard when you play back a DAT onto which you have recorded a source encoded with DTS. No sound is heard when you play back a source (CD etc.) even though the currently selected input mode is AUTO. If the AUTO input mode is selected, depending on some sources, there may be a case that a noise is heard while this unit is identifying the format of input signal. The DTS decoder built into this unit does not function because the player has a digital volume control and it is set at a position other than maximum, neutral or ineffective. A source encoded with DTS cannot be recorded onto an MD. Depending on a DAT deck, a source encoded with DTS cannot be recorded onto a DAT. In the AUTO mode, DTS-decoding mode cannot be changed to the normal (PCM) digital signal input mode automatically. Press the INPUT MODE button on the front panel or the input selector button (for the currently selected source) on the remote controller so that PCM appears on the monitor screen. What to Do The player must be connected to a digital audio signal input terminal of this unit besides analog audio signal terminal connections. Select a proper input mode on this unit to turn on the DTS decoder built into this unit. Set the input mode of the currently selected input source to DTS.
