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.

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.

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.

HDR10+*

HDR10+ processes the dynamic range (the ratio of light to dark) of video content scene-by-scene (or even frame-by-frame) using metadata that informs about the brightness and black level characteristics of the scene, in order to preserve detail more significant. This allows screens to reproduce images that are more realistic and faithful to the director's intentions.
