A network connection allows you to listen to Internet radio stations or music streaming

services, and to use AirPlay to play music files, or to play music files stored on your

computer (media server) via this unit.

Most playback requires the “MusicCast CONTROLLER” app for mobile devices. Install

and use the MusicCast CONTROLLER app on your mobile device to play music files.

• To use network function, the unit, your PC and mobile device must be connected to the same router. Make

sure whether the network parameters (such as the IP address) are properly assigned to the unit in

“Information” (p. 82) in the setup menu.

• When using a multiple SSID router, access to the unit might be restricted depending on the SSID to

connect. Connect the unit and mobile device to the same SSID.

• Some security software installed on your computer, or network device settings (such as a firewall), may

block the unit’s access to your computer or Internet radio stations. Should this occur, change security

software and/or network device settings.

• A network connection cannot be established if the MAC address filter on your router is enabled. Check your

router’s settings.

• To configure your router’s subnet mask manually, apply the same subnet used by this unit to all devices.

• Use of a broadband connection is recommended when using Internet services.

• If your router supports DHCP, network settings for the unit need not be configured. Network parameters

(such as the IP address) will be assigned automatically. If your router does not support DHCP, or if you

prefer to configure network parameters manually, you must configure network settings yourself (p. 83).

APPENDIX ➤When surround effect is not enough En 103

The unit achieves its surround sound effects by projecting sound beams which reflect

off walls. The sound beams are not reflected toward to the listening position caused by

furniture, etc., in the path of sound beams, or the room shape. In this case, the sound

may become unbalanced.

If the sound beams are not reflected toward to the listening position (figure 2), you can

adjust for this by installing the optional sound reflection board YRB-100.

• YRB-100 may not be available in some countries or regions.

APPENDIX ➤Basic knowledge of surround sound En 106

What is Surround Sound?

Surround sound offers the sense of being surrounded by sounds, an

experience common in concert halls and movie theaters. This can be

achieved by surrounding the audience with numerous speakers from

which sound is output uniformly in all directions. This “surround

sound” technology immerses the listener in sound with speakers

positioned not only in front of the listener, but also behind and to the

sides of the listener, making him or her feel as if they are actually in

the situation.

For precise directional control and quality of sound reproduction,

sounds must be split into separate audio channels for output to each

speaker. Surround sound systems for regular home use (7.1-channel

speaker systems) produce surround sound using seven speakers

and a subwoofer, as shown below:

A highly realistic sound field can be created with multiple speakers

installed around the listening position as shown in the illustration

above. However, this can be difficult to do in a living room. The unit

utilizes “digital sound projector” technology, enabling it alone to

provide a realistic and engaging surround sound experience.

What is a Digital Sound Projector?

A digital sound projector provides optimal control over the delay time

for each of the compact speakers installed in orderly rows, and

drives the amplifier for each of these speakers, synthesizing audio

signals output from each speaker as highly focused sounds (sound

beams).

These focused sounds possess wave-like characteristics. When they

hit a hard wall, they are reflected off the wall. A digital sound

projector outputs sound beams from five channels, including front

(left/right), center, and surround (left/right) channels, by reflecting

these beams off the walls so that sounds reach the listener from the

appropriate direction. It features a technology that enables true

surround sound without requiring the installation of speakers behind

or to the sides of the listener.

By combining sound beams coming from the front (left/right) and

back (left/right), it can also create two new audio channels for

surround sound playback using 7 channels. With this configuration,

the new audio channels output sounds from surround sound

channels, while sound beams coming from behind the listening

position (left/right) output sounds from surround back channels.

Yamaha’s audio technologies

This unit features many more functions based on Yamaha’s superior

audio technologies.

This technology enhances and extends bass and treble, which tend

to be weak in digitally compressed formats such as MP3 used with

portable digital audio players and computers. This makes

compressed audio sound more musically dynamic.

This technology enables precise digital recreation of actual acoustic

environments found in well-known concert halls and movie theaters.

This is achieved using Yamaha’s exclusive sound field programs,

which are based on data measured in various sound fields, and with

which the amplitude, depth, and volume of sounds have been

adjusted.

Audio/video information

Sampling Frequency and Bit Depth

These are values that represent the amount of information used to convert analog signals to digital signals.

They may be expressed as 48kHz/24bit, for example.

• Sampling Frequency

This defines the number of samples per second (sampling a finite set of discrete values in an analog

signal). The higher the sampling rate, the broader the range of frequencies that can be played back.

• Bit Depth

This defines the amplitude value of sounds when quantifying analog signals as finite values. The higher

the bit depth, the deeper sounds are reproduced.

Deep Color

This is a video technology supported by the HDMI standard. It processes RGB or YCbCr signals at bit

depths of 10, 12, or 16 bits per color, whereas conventional formats utilize only 8-bit processing, enabling

reproduction of more colors. Its gamut is comprised of a billion or more colors, while the gamuts of

conventional formats are comprised of only millions of colors or less. This broader gamut results in more

precise reproduction of colors and greater detail in darker portions.

Dolby Digital

This is a compressed audio format for 5.1 channels. It was developed by Dolby Laboratories, and is widely

used with DVD discs.

Dolby Digital EX

This technology enables 6.1-channel playback for sources encoded in the Dolby Digital EX format. It takes

the Dolby Digital 5.1-channel setup one step further with an additional back surround channel.

Dolby Digital Plus

This is a compressed audio format for 7.1 channels developed by Dolby Laboratories. It is fully compatible

with Dolby Digital and is available for playback on Dolby Digital-enabled audio systems. It is widely used

with Blu-ray Discs.

Dolby Pro Logic II

This technology converts audio signal recorded in 2 channels to 5-channel signal. There are three modes

available: “Music mode” for stereo music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources, and “Game mode” for

game sources.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx

This technology converts not only audio recorded in 2 channels, but also audio signal recorded in multiple

channels to discrete 7-channel sound. There are three modes available: “Music mode” for music sources,

“Movie mode” for movie sources and “Game mode” for game sources.

Dolby TrueHD

This advanced lossless audio technology was developed by Dolby Laboratories for high-definition

disc-based media to deliver sounds that are identical, bit for bit, to studio masters for a great home theater

experience. It delivers up to 8 discrete channels of 24-bit/96-kHz (up to 6 discrete channels of 24-bit/192

kHz) audio simultaneously, and is widely used with Blu-ray Discs.

DTS Digital Surround

This is a compressed audio format for 5.1 channels developed by DTS. It is widely used with DVD discs.

DTS Express

This is a compressed audio format for 5.1 channels. It provides a higher compression ratio than the DTS

Digital Surround audio format, and was developed specifically for network streaming and Blu-ray Disc

secondary audio.

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio

This is a compressed audio format for 24-bit/96-kHz superior sound quality with 7.1 channels developed by

DTS. It is fully compatible with DTS Digital Surround, and is widely used with Blu-ray Discs.

DTS-HD Master Audio

This advanced lossless audio technology was developed by DTS for high-definition disc-based media to

deliver sounds identical, bit for bit, to studio masters for a great home theater experience. It delivers up to 8

discrete channels at 24-bit/96 kHz (up to 6 discrete channels at 24-bit/192 kHz) audio simultaneously, and is

widely used with Blu-ray Discs.

DTS Neo:6

This technology enables discrete 6-channel playback from 2-channel sources. There are two modes

available: “Music mode” for music sources and “Cinema mode” for movie sources. It provides a channel

split effect similar to sources recorded as discrete surround sound.

HDMI

High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a digital audio/video interface that has become an industry

standard around the world. It is capable of transmitting both digital video and audio signals intact via a

single cable. It is also compliant with the High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) standard. See

http://www.hdmi.org for more information.

Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)

This technology records analog audio signals in digital form, converts analog audio signals to digital audio

signals, and transmits analog audio signals in digital form. It is the underlying technology for all digital audio

signal systems, and is widely used with CDs, Blu-ray Discs, and many other types of media as a

uncompressed audio format known as Linear PCM.

x.v.Color

This is a color space supported by HDMI. It has become an international standard for video and offers a

broader gamut than does the sRGB standard for expression of colors never before possible. It expands the

color space while ensuring compatibility with the sRGB standard for more natural and vivid images.
