BREATHTAKING AUDIO

Dolby Atmos® with Height Virtualizer*

For those who don't have a system with in-ceiling speakers or upward-firing speakers, Dolby Atmos with Height Virtualization simulates the "ceiling" Atmos experience using the front channels. Configuring up to five speakers will allow you to reproduce the effects of two ceiling channels, while setting up seven speakers will allow you to simulate the effects of four ceiling speakers.

Feel all dimensions with Dolby Atmos. Set up a 5.1 channel surround system with two additional ceiling speakers or two Dolby Atmos height speakers, to enjoy incredible immersive overhead effects - Dolby Surround upmixer is also available for all other content.

DTS:X®

DTS:X immersive audio places sounds naturally into the environment for multi-dimensional, lifelike audio. Built-in DTS Neural:X™ spatial remapping processing delivers greater immersion and heightened realism for all movies.

CINEMA DSP 3D for Movies, Music and Video Games

This unique Yamaha sound field technology was developed by combining the measurement of real sound fields with digital signal processing. Yamaha has acquired the sound fields of the most famous music clubs and concert halls from around the world, using its great experience in the design of concert halls, PA systems and mixing rooms. Thanks to the digitization of the huge database built into the chip of the devices, it is possible to reproduce the acoustics of those halls right in your home. Immerse yourself in the sonic realism of movies and enjoy the best cinematic audio.

Compressed Music Enhancer

In compressed digital music such as MP3, the frequency response is reduced. Yamaha Compressed Music Enhancer technology uses sophisticated digital signal processing which, thanks to lost frequency reconstruction algorithms, allows you to listen to music with the original quality.

Advantages of a High Response Speed ​​Amplifier

It helps to transmit the signal accurately and is especially suitable for high resolution signals. Typically, high slew rate amplifiers can cause unstable signal transmissions. The new circuit designed by Yamaha stabilizes the signal transmission with high speed response.

Foot with anti-resonance technology

Anti-Resonance Technology (ART) consists of a fifth pin in the center of the chassis base, which dampens vibrations generated by the transformer, transistors and heatsinks, as well as those from speaker sound, resulting in dynamic audio and more focused and focused reproduction. precise.

HDR10+*

HDR10+ not only processes the dynamic range (the ratio of light to dark tones) of video content scene-by-scene (or even frame-by-frame), but also provides, via a small amount of metadata, the light and dark rendering of the image, in order to preserve the most significant details. This allows screens to reproduce images that are more realistic and faithful to the director's intentions. *This feature will be available via a future update.

4K/120Hz*

4K/120Hz resolution delivers incredibly sharp ultra-fast UHD images for high-performance games, sports and action movies.

*This feature will be available via a future update.

Dedicated gaming functions (ALLM, VRR, QMS, QFT)*

Advanced gaming and multimedia features ensure smooth visuals and transitions for games, movies and videos. Included are: Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) which automatically configures the ideal level of latency for smooth playback and interaction, free from lag and interruptions. Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) reduces or eliminates lag, stutter and frame tearing for smoother, more detailed gameplay. Quick Media Switching (QMS) eliminates the waiting with black screen that appears before starting a movie and video content. Quick Frame Transport (QFT) reduces latency for smoother, lag-free gaming sessions as well as real-time interactive virtual reality.

*This feature will be available via a future update.

YPAO™-RSC (Reflected Sound Control)

YPAO™-RSC (Reflected Sound Control) analyzes room acoustics with the supplied YPAO™ microphone, adjusting the system to deliver great sound in any environment. It uses RSC technology to correct early reflections for professional surround sound quality. YPAO 3D offers automatic optimization of audio parameters that maximizes the efficiency of the 3D sound field of CINEMA DSP HD3 as well as Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X®. High-precision 64-bit EQ calculation delivers the most natural acoustics possible.
