You can improve listenability in a noisy environment by changing the beam mode to My Beam, which outputs sound
beams directly toward the listening position in a single channel. In addition, My Beam is also ideal when you do not want
the sound beams to be reflected on the walls in your listening room or when you do not want to disturb other people
while enjoying music or movies at night.
If My Beam is selected as the beam mode, the surround modes (see page 56), the CINEMA DSP programs (see page 63), and TruBass
(see page 79) become ineffective. In addition, no audio is output from the subwoofer connected to this unit.
The My Beam microphone on the remote control collects
the test tones from this unit so that the beam angle can be
automatically adjusted.
1
Set the operation mode selector to YSP.
2
Press and hold MY BEAM for more than two
seconds.
A test tone is output twice from this unit. Keep
pointing the remote control toward this unit while the
test tones are being output so that the My Beam
microphone can collect the test tones.
Control range: L60° to R60°
Operation guarantee range: 6 m (20 ft), L45° to R45°
• If an error occurs, an error buzzer is played and “MY BEAM
ERROR” is displayed in the front panel display.
• An error may occur if the listening room is noisy. Make sure
that the listening room is as quiet as possible while the test
tones are being output.
• Do not shake or move the remote control while the test tones are
being output.
• Do not cover the My Beam microphone on the remote control
while the test tones are being output.
• The batteries in the remote control may be weak if the remote
control does not function properly. In this case, replace all the
batteries and then try the procedure again.
• When the input signal with 64 kHz or 96 kHz of sampling
frequency is being played back, the beam angle cannot be
automatically adjusted.
