sound fields is Spectacle, which recreates
the open feeling of large-scale, epic
motion pictures. The Sci-Fi is designed to
reproduce all the complex, dynamic
sounds of space/science fiction movies.
Adventure and General are also included.

Centre Graphic Equalizer

In addition to the many audio parameters
that can be adjusted, the RX-V740RDS
provides an even greater degree of sound
field control with the inclusion of a Centre
Graphic Equalizer. This lets you finely
“tune” the overall balance of the sound
field to achieve the optimal imaging for
movie sound.

Night Listening Mode for All Surround
Programmes

When you’re listening to movies late at
night and turn down the volume during
loud scenes, dynamic range suffers and

Quad-Field and Tri-Field 
CINEMA DSP

Tri-Field CINEMA DSP projects three
sound fields into the home cinema: a
Presence sound field in the front and
two Surround sound fields in the left
rear and right rear, resulting in a
powerfully realistic three-dimensional
soundscape. And now Yamaha also
offers Quad-Field CINEMA DSP. It adds
an additional rear centre sound field to
the Tri-Field system, in order to enjoy
the new 6.1-channel formats, Dolby
Digital EX and DTS-ES.

CINEMA DSP Programmes

One of the main advantages of CINEMA
DSP is the large choice of sound field
programmes available. The basic
programme for movies is Enhanced,
which greatly improves the sound of the
surround fields. The "largest" of these

Going Beyond Conventional Multi-
Channel Systems

Conventional 5.1-channel/6.1-channel
audio reproduction systems base their
sound on Dolby Digital and DTS
decoding, using matrix and steering
technologies to create surround sound
effects. Yamaha CINEMA DSP is much
more advanced, actually creating richly
realized independent sound fields that
merge to envelop you in an unmatched
surround sound experience. With
dialogue, music and effects from the
presence (front), rear and rear sound
fields, you will hear sound with highly
accurate localization, smooth
movement, exceptional clarity and
richness, and startlingly realistic
presence. It will seem as if the walls of
your room have disappeared and you
are in the middle of your own immense
theatre!
