Yamaha YSP1100SL Digital Sound Projector (Silver)

The YSP-1100 Digital Sound Projector precisely controls the orientation of sound by focusing it into beams. The center channel sound is heard directly, while the sounds from other channels are heard after reflecting off the walls surrounding the listener. SRS’s TruBass technology uses harmonics to provide deep and rich bass response. The result is an excellent solution for video enthusiasts who wish to build their home theater systems around larger flat screen TVs and desire a neat, uncluttered, unobtrusive system to match the interior of their room.

Yamaha’s proprietary IntelliBeam automated system calibration allows users to quickly and easily set up the YSP-1100 for the optimal listening experience.

Five selectable sound settings allow users to choose between 5-Beam Mode, Stereo Mode, 3-Beam Mode, Stereo+3-Beam Mode and My Beam Mode. The YSP-1100 has a wider soundstage than its predecessors, affording more optimum listening positions within a room. My Beam mode allows users to focus sound to a specific position in their room at the touch of a button to avoid disturbing others.

Yamaha’s CINEMA DSP technology, which offers seven audio programs compatible with the Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS Neo:6 sound formats, creates realistic soundscapes in any room. For late night movie and music enjoyment, the YSP-1100 features a Night Listening Enhancer mode that allows dialog and quiet passages to be heard clearly, even at low volumes. The TV Equal Volume mode prevents sudden bursts of sound from TV programs and commercials.

The YSP-1100 offers simple video input selection with a multi-language onscreen display. Video can be selected from any of two component inputs to a component output, or from three composite inputs to a composite output with superimposed onscreen display menus in any of four languages (English, French, German and Spanish).

The YSP-1100 is easily integrated into custom installations, as it supports IR signal transmission for the operation of other components. To illustrate, the YSP-1100 can be controlled by an IR signal sent through the Remote In terminal. At the same time, the IR signal received by the Remote Control Sensor on the front panel is directly output through the IR OUT terminal to other appropriate components. The model is also equipped with an RS-232C interface that enables operation via a touch-panel controller.

Five Beam Mode: All five channels - Left, Right, Centre, Left-surround and R-surround - are given separate orientations. Sound is beamed off the walls to create the effect of a surround system with rear speakers.
 
Stereo Mode: The left and right woofers, with the multiple beam speakers acting as tweeters, reproduce the effect of conventional stereo speakers. 

Three Beam Mode: Three beams are produced: Left and Left-surround, Right and Right-surround and Centre. A surround sound effect is created by reflecting the sound off the walls. 

Three Beam + Stereo Mode: The Left and Right channels are produced using stereo mode while Centre, Left-surround and Right-surround are produced using beaming. This mode is effective when the YSP-1 placed in a corner. 

Target Mode: One beam is produced: Sound is projected to a distinct location away from the typical listening area.
