FEATURES ➤ What you can do with the unit En 8

The excitement of a concert hall and the powerful sense of being inside a movie - we all want to enjoy these

experiences in our own living room. Yamaha has pursued the fulfillment of these desires for more than 20 years, and

this fulfillment has now taken shape as the Yamaha AV receivers.

What is a sound field?

We perceive sound from a voice or an instrument not

only as the sounds that are heard directly but also as

the “reflected” or “reverberant” sound that has been

reflected by the walls or ceiling of the building. The

character of the reflected and reverberant sound is

affected by the shape, size, and material of the building,

and all of these sounds taken together are what give us

the auditory sensation of being in that specific place.

This unique acoustical character of a specific space is

what we call the “sound field”.

Conceptual diagram of a concert hall's sound field

Conceptual diagram of a sound field created by the unit

CINEMA DSP/CINEMA DSP 3D

Yamaha has accumulated a massive amount of

acoustical data by analyzing the actual sound fields of

concert halls and performance spaces around the

world. “CINEMA DSP” allows this data to be applied to

create sound fields. This unit contains a wide variety of

sound programs using CINEMA DSP.

By selecting a sound program that is appropriate to the

content of the playback source such as movies, music,

or games, you can maximize the acoustical

effectiveness of that specific content. (For example, a

sound program designed for movies can give you the

sensation of actually being in that scene.)

In addition, the “CINEMA DSP 3D” function uses

3-dimensional sound field data that includes the axis of

height, generating an even more realistic sound field

with a spatial sense.

CINEMA DSP HD

“CINEMA DSP HD³” is Yamaha's flagship 3D sound field

playback technology that takes full advantage of the

massive amount of acoustic reflection data included in the

sound field data. With support for rear presence speaker

output, it delivers more than twice as much capability for

generating acoustic reflections as conventional CINEMA

DSP 3D, in addition to high-frequency playback capability,

delivering an utterly natural and powerful spatial sound field.

Time

The included YPAO microphone can be used to analyze

the environment so that this information can be used to

automatically adjust various settings for the speakers and

the sound field. This allows the distinctive character of the

content you are hearing to be maximized, and optimizes

the effectiveness of Yamaha's sound field generating

technology for your specific listening environment.

YPAO-R.S.C.

In rooms that have not been designed or constructed

with acoustics in mind, reflections from the walls or

ceiling can cause problems such as a blurred

low-frequency range or a smearing of the acoustical

image. “YPAO-R.S.C.” is technology that reduces only

the unwanted reflections that can be difficult to avoid in

a typical home. This corrects the tonal changes and

inconsistencies in the sound field that can occur due to

speaker placement, thus creating a listening

environment comparable to that of a room specifically

designed for acoustic perfection.

Angle measurement

The direction (angle) of the front

speakers, surround speakers,

and presence speakers as seen

from the listening position is

measured, and compensation

is applied to the sound field in

order to maximize the

effectiveness of the CINEMA DSP sound field.

Support for bi-amp connections and

external power amp expansion

To obtain even high audio quality, you can connect front

speakers that support power amp expansion, or

expand your system by adding an external power amp

(such as a Hi-Fi amp).

For details, refer to “Advanced speaker configuration”

(p.24).

The best expandability in Yamaha

By connecting an external power amp,

you can enjoy the highest peak of CINEMA DSP

- an 11.2-channel 3-dimensional sound field.

(Example)

Multi-zone function

The multi-zone function (p.90) allows you to play back

different input sources in the room where the unit is

installed (main zone) and in other rooms (such as Zone2).

(The following shows examples of use.)

Enjoying music using speakers in another room

While enjoying multi-channel playback in your living

room, you can listen to music through the speakers of a

different room.

Enjoying videos using a TV in

another room (HDMI connection)

While enjoying multi-channel playback in your living

room, you can enjoy videos and music being input via

HDMI on a TV in a different room.

Optimizing the speaker settings

automatically (YPAO) (p.50)

Optimize the speaker settings, such as volume balance and acoustic parameters, to suit your room

(YPAO).

PREPARATIONS ➤ Connecting speakers En 18

The unit has 9 built-in amplifiers. You can connect 2 to 11 speakers and up to 2 subwoofers to create the favorite acoustic space in your room.

You can also apply bi-amp connections, channel expansion (using an external power amplifier) or multi-zone configurations to enhance your system (p.24).

Functions of each speaker

• We recommend using presence speakers to have a full effect of the 3-dimensional sound fields. However,

the unit creates Virtual Presence Speaker (VPS) using the front, center and surround speakers to produce

3-dimensional sound fields even when no presence speakers are connected (p.64).

• Use “Ideal speaker layout” (diagram on the right) as reference. You do not need to exactly adjust the

speaker layout to this diagram since the YPAO function of the unit will automatically optimize the speaker

settings (such as distances) to suit the speaker layout.

• When using only one surround back speaker, place it straight behind the listening position (middle of “SBL”

and “SBR” in the diagram).

Ideal speaker layout

1 Connecting speakers

Caution

• Under its default settings, the unit is configured for 8-ohm speakers. When connecting 6-ohm speakers, set the unit’s speaker impedance to “6 Ω MIN”. In this case, you can also use 4-ohm speakers as the front speakers.

For details, see “Setting the speaker impedance” (p.21).

(using both surround back and rear presence speakers)

This speaker system brings out the full performance of the unit and allows you to enjoy

a highly-natural 3-dimensional sound field with any contents.

• The surround back speakers and rear presence speakers do not produce sounds simultaneously. The unit

automatically changes the speakers to be used, depending on the selected sound program (p.64).

• (RX-A3020 only)

You can make an 11-channel system by using an external power amplifier (p.25).

❑ 9.2-channel system (using rear presence speakers)

This speaker system uses the front and rear presence speakers to produce a

highly-natural 3-dimensional sound field, and is suited for enjoying 5.1-channel contents.

❑ 9.2-channel system (using surround back speakers)

This speaker system uses the front presence speakers to produce a natural

3-dimensional sound field, and also allows you to enjoy extended surround sounds

using the surround back speakers.
