Virtual 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 “REAR LR SP” on the SET
MENU to NON. Virtual CINEMA DSP is performed by
using the main speakers.
Note
• This unit is not set in the Virtual CINEMA DSP mode even if
“REAR LR SP” is set to NON 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 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.

Notes
• If the sound effect is canceled when Dolby Digital or DTS is

and output from the main speakers.
• If you turn off the sound effect when Dolby Digital or DTS is
decoding, it may happen that the sound is output faintly or not
output normally, depending on the source. In that case, turn back
on the sound effect.
