However , something has been missing : the atmosphere and acoustic ambience of the public venue . Our Yamaha engineers have extensively researched the nature of sound acoustics and the way sound reflects inside a room . We sent these engineers to famous theaters and concert halls around the world to measure the acoustics of those venues with sophisticated microphones . The data they collected is used to recreate these environments in digital sound fields . Some of these digital sound fields have been created using data measured at the original venue ; others have been created from combinations of data to form unique environments for specific purposes . Some have been designed especially for music , and others especially for movies . Of course , this only solves half of the problem . Because these engineers have no way of knowing the acoustics of your entertainment room , we have made it possible for you to adjust the various parameters of this data to tailor each virtual venue to your taste . You can use these sound fields to enhance any source and in combination with any of the following surround sound technologies . • CINEMA - DSP : Dolby Digital + DSP and DTS + DSP The Dolby Digital system and DTS system show their full capability in large movie theaters , because feature film soundtracks are designed to be reproduced in such environments . It is difficult to recreate a sound environment similar to a movie theater in your entertainment room because of the room size , wall materials , and the number of speakers in your entertainment system . Yamaha DSP technology makes it possible for you to enjoy nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in your entertainment room by compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your entertainment room with Yamaha's original digital sound fields combined with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtracks . H • Virtual CINEMA DSP and SILENT CINEMA DSP Yamaha developed the Virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm which allows you to experience the virtual sound fields without surround speakers . This makes it possible for the RX - ZI to produce a full surround sound catering to the number of speakers you have . The RX - ZI also has a SILENT CINEMA DSP algorithm which is achieved by the crosstalk processing applying the precise Head Related Transfer Function . You can therefore enjoy listening to the CINEMA DSP soundfields on headphones . • Various decoders to support the newest sound effect technology This unit is equipped with the following signal format decoders . rlrlFssCaCl DIGITAL " EX • Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital EX The Matrix decoder enables 6 . l - channel playback of " the 5 . l - channel sources by extracting the rear center channel signals from the rear L / R channel signals . • DOLBY PRO LOGIC • DOLBY PRO LOGIC ] I DOLBY PRO LOGIC ] I is the improved technique to decode vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround programs . This new technology enables a discrete 5 - channel playback with two left and right main channels , a center channel , and two left and fight rear channels compared with one limited rear channel for the conventional Pro Logic technology . Also the music mode is available for 2 - channel sources in addition to the movie mode . EXTENDED SURROUND • DTS and DTS ES The RX - ZI is also equipped with a DTS decoder , which uses a 5 . l - channel system to create a full surround sound environment . It was developed as a way to replace the analog soundtracks of movies with six channels of digital sound . In comparison with Dolby Digital , DTS uses less compression to store the sound information . The newly presented DTS ES system reproduces digital sound similar to Dolby Digital EX . The use of the rear center speaker along with the existing 5 . l - channel speakers provides a fully immersive cinematic audio experience . • DTS Neo : 6 Neo : 6 decodes the conventional 2 - channel sources for 6 - channel playback by the specific decoder . It enables playback with the full - range channels with higher separation just like digital discrete signal playback . Two modes are available ; " Music mode " for playing music sources and " Cinema mode " for movies . • DTS 96 / 24 DTS 96 / 24 achieves the high quality playback with all 5.1 channels at the sampling frequency 96 kHz / 24 bit .

Its easy - to - use touch screen and its intuitive interface make it the perfect remote control tk _ r every user . The remote control ( RC ) is completely customizable . In the memory of the remote control , RC codes are stored to activate different brands of all kinds of video and audio components . The remote control is set up by default to operate with YAMAHA components . If you have other brands , you simply define the brands of your components when you use the remote control tk ? r the first time . The remote control can also learn RC codes from existing remote controls . It is designed to add components and functions , relabel buttons , record macros and set timers .

Refer to the following diagram when you place the speakers . • Use magnetically shielded speakers . If this type of speakers still creates the interference with a monitor , place the speakers away from the monitor . ) eakers • Placing the main s Place the left and right main speakers an equal distance from the main listening position . If you have a TV or video monitor in your system , the distance of each speaker from each TV or video side of the TV or video monitor should be the same . monitor • Placing the center speaker If you have a TV or video monitor in your system , align the front face of the center speaker with the front face of the monitor . Place the speaker as close to the monitor as possible , such as directly over or under the monitor . If you place the speaker under the monitor , the front effect speakers can adjust the height of the sound to correspond with the F action on the screen ( depending on the listener's position ) . If you have a projection screen in your system , place the center speaker under the screen . Be sure to align the speaker Center speaker with the center of the screen . • Placing the front effect , rear and rear center speakers These speakers should be placed about 0.5 - l m ( 1 - 3 feet ) outside the main speakers lm 0.5 - 1m 1.5 = 3m 0.5 - 1m lm and in the front of the room . They should be turned toward the main listening position . Place the rear speakers in the back of the room so they face the main listening position . The rear speakers can be placed farther apart than the front effect speakers . Place these speakers at the height of 1.5 m when listening as sitting on the floor or 1.8 m when listening as sitting on the chair . Once you begin listening to programs , continue to adjust the speaker placement until you obtain a balanced sound from the main speakers and the front effect and rear speakers . This distance can be farther than the front effect speakers ' . • When you use a projection screen Place the speakers as shown in the illustration . The main speakers should be placed about one - quarter of the way up from the bottom of the screen . Place the center speaker in the center and directly under the screen . The center speaker provides precise dialogue localization . When you use a projection screen with your system , the front effect speakers provide better effect quality . The CINEMA - DSP sound t ] eld programs ( see pages to ) raise the sound from the center speaker upward and provide natural sound corresponding with the video images . E - 16

• Placing the subwoofers Place the front subwoofer near the main speakers . Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections . If you use a rear subwoofer , place it behind the main listening position . The placement of the rear subwoofer is not critical because of the ultra low frequencies of the sound being reproduced . By adding a high quality subwoofer to the speaker configurations shown on page _ _ , you can enjoy more powerful and realistic movie effects , even if your main speakers are large . / Frontsubwoofer / Rear subwoofer • If you use different brands of speakers ( with different tonal qualities ) in your configuration , the tone of a moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift smoothly . We recommend that you use speakers from the same manufacturer or speakers with the same tonal quality . You can also adjust the output levels and equalization of your effect speakers using the SET MENU ( see pages _ _ and _ _ ) . If you are using small speakers , the addition of a subwoofer will reinforce the sound effects of movies . E - 17
