Sound field programs

This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multi-channel playback from almost any stereo or multi-channel sound source. This unit is also equipped with a Yamaha digital sound field processing (DSP) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience.

Selecting sound field programs

Rotate the EPROGRAM selector (or set the operation mode selector to FAMP and then press one of the sound field program selector buttons (O) repeatedly).

The name of the selected sound field program appears in the front panel display and in the OSD.

Notes

When you select an input source, this unit automatically selects the last sound field program used with the corresponding input source.

Sound field programs cannot be selected when the component connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks is selected as the input source (see page 42).

When you play back the Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD Master Audio, or DTS-HD High Resolution Audio sources, this unit does not activate any sound field program.

When the sampling frequency of the input sources are higher than 96 kHz, this unit does not apply any sound field programs.
