Virtual CINEMA FRONT: Superb High-Resolution Virtual 5.1 Sound

For installations subject to space constraints, Yamaha’s Virtual CINEMA FRONT technology allows you to enjoy a stunning virtual surround field using only speakers in front of the listening area. This exclusive Yamaha technology relies on the use of two surround speakers and a center speaker placed at the front for a high-resolution 5-channel* surround field, with incredible virtual reproduction of the rear channels.

Extra Bass: Dense and Rich Bass, Even with Small Speakers

Yamaha’s exclusive bass enhancement technology delivers incredibly rich bass while maintaining excellent spatialization and sound balance, especially when used with small speakers. When used with a subwoofer, Extra Bass enhances the volume of the entire bass frequency range of the system, not just the front speakers. You’ll enjoy exceptionally powerful and present sound.

Zone B Output for 2-Channel Sound in Another Room

The Zone B output allows you to send stereo sound to a second room. In this case, the main zone has five channels. It is thus possible to enjoy stereo sound in another room (same audio source for both rooms: Zone A and Zone B).
