■Virtual CINEMA DSP and SILENT CINEMAVirtual CINEMA DSP

Virtual CINEMA DSP allows you to enjoy the sound field effects of the DSP program without rear speakers. Using YAMAHA original technology, natural surround reproduction is possible through the generation of a virtual speaker.

The sound field processing is changed to the Virtual CINEMA DSP mode by setting “1C REAR L/R SP” on the SET MENU to NONE. Virtual CINEMA DSP is performed by using the main speakers.

Note

•This unit is not set in the Virtual CINEMA DSP mode even if “1C REAR L/R SP” is set to NONE in the following cases:

–when the 5CH STEREO, PRO LOGIC/NORMAL, DOLBY DIGITAL/NORMAL or DTS/NORMAL program is selected;

–when the sound effect is turned off;–when 6CH INPUT is selected as the input source;–when 96-kHz sampling digital signals are input to this unit;–when the Dolby Digital KARAOKE source is played;–when using the test tone; or–when connecting the headphones (you will hear SILENT CINEMA).SILENT CINEMA

SILENT CINEMA allows you to enjoy the realistic feel of the DSP program while using headphones. This feature delivers powerful surround reproduction just as if listening through the speakers.

You can listen to SILENT CINEMA by connecting your headphones to the PHONES jack while the effect speakers are on.

•The volume may be greatly reduced when you turn off the sound effect or if you set “6 D-RANGE” on the SET MENU to MIN. In this case turn on the sound effect.
