Dialogue Lift

When using front and center speakers that are

positioned below the screen, dialogue may not

be heard with maximum clarity. The Dialogue

Lift function causes part of the sound from the

front and center channels to be output from the

presence speakers, so you hear the dialogue

more clearly.

Adaptive DRC

Adaptive DRC (Dynamic Range Control) is a

new volume control technology that is effective

for low-volume listening, such as at night or with

headphones. It applies DRC processing to

eliminate the volume differences between loud

commercials and ordinary programming and to

take into account our ears’ loss of sensitivity as

volume decreases. The compensation is

performed automatically, so all dialogue is heard

clearly even at low levels, and there are no

sudden loud bursts of sound.

Adaptive DSP Level

When volume is low, CINEMA DSP effects may

be difficult to hear. Adaptive DSP Level

overcomes this problem by evaluating the

difference between the volume level and a

reference level, and adjusting the DSP level to

ensur

e optimum effectiveness, that is, the best

possible sound.

Superior Custom Zone Control

Users can enjoy audio in three rooms and well as

video in the second room with an extensive array

of Custom Zone Control features. These include

Main/Zone 2/Zone 3 power control, front panel

selection of XM/FM/AM tuning, volume and input

source, Zone 2 video output and on-screen menu

display, and Zone 2/3 tone and L/R balance

control for ceiling or wall-mounted speakers. A

separate Zone Remote Unit is provided and there

is also an RS-232C interface for a touch-panel

controller.

On-Screen Display with GUI

An on-screen GUI (Graphical User Interface)

display makes operating the receiver easy and

intuitive. It is compatible with

iPod, internet radio, PC and

USB displays. Six display

languages can be selected:

English, Spanish, French,

German, Russian and

Japanese.

System Memory

This receiver has a System Memory function for

saving and recalling multiple system parameter

settings. Four different system settings can be

easily saved and then instantly recalled at any

time by using the four System Memory buttons on

the remote. For example, if you have a particular

“sound” that you prefer

with action movies, just

save those parameters and then press that

button whenever you watch an action movie.

Initial Volume and Maximum Volume

Two volume setting functions are including on this

receiver for additional convenience. Initial Volume

Setting allows you to set the volume level that will

be heard each time the power is turned on.

Maximum Volume Setting prevents unexpected

loud sounds, for example if a young child turns

the volume knob.

Surround Realism

3D CINEMA DSP

The RX-V3800 features surround sound

processing with the enhanced capability of 3D

CINEMA DSP. By using two presence speakers in

addition to the four FL/FR and SL/SR speakers,

the sound field is given an extra vertical

dimension. Pressing the 3D DSP button provides

NEW PRODUCT BULLETIN

RX-V3800BL 7.1-Channel Digital Home Theater Receiver

a sound field that expands

both upward and downward.

HiFi DSP programs sound

more natural, closer to the

feeling of actually being in a

concert hall with a high ceiling

or a small live house where

the sound seems to bounce

up from the floor. CINEMA

DSP programs have an added

dimension of height that was

previously difficult to achieve,

so sounds coming from above have precise

localization. In short, the source and the sound

field are in closer harmony, providing a delightful

new CINEMA DSP experience.

Improved Compressed Music Enhancer

Yamaha’s Compressed Music Enhancer is a

popular feature that restores the sound of the

original music from digitally compressed formats

such as MP3. This receiver offers an upgraded

version that processes multi-

channel signals with a DSP

algorithm, so all channels (rather than just two)

are enhanced. This provides more accurate

reproduction and a more expansive sound. There

are two modes: Straight Enhancer that enhances

and outputs each input channel as is, and 7ch

Enhancer that downmixes

the input channels to

2-channel and then outputs them as X-channel

stereo (X being the number of input channels).
