Auto Setup For Appropriate Surround Effects (Intellibeam); Installing The Intellibeam Microphone; Beam Optimization - Yamaha YSP-3300 Owner's Manual

Auto setup for appropriate
surround effects (IntelliBeam)
Due to differences in room sizes and shapes, positioning of this
unit, and the lifestyle of users, settings for each channel must be
adjusted in order for this unit to provide the optimal listening
experience.
This unit is equipped with IntelliBeam, which automatically
adjusts settings for each channel. IntelliBeam offers two features,
"beam optimization" and "sound optimization".

Beam optimization:

This feature optimizes the beam angle so that the parameter best
matches your listening environment.
Sound optimization:
This feature optimizes the beam delay, volume, and quality so
that the parameters best match your listening environment.
This unit performs these two automatic optimizations with the aid
of the supplied IntelliBeam microphone.
Notes
• The AUTO SETUP procedure may not be run successfully if this
unit is installed in one of the rooms described in "Conditions that
make it difficult for sound beams to achieve surround sound" on
page 11. The My Surround function can be used to enjoy rich
surround sound in these types of rooms as well. See "Changing
the audio output method for surround playback" (☞p. 36, 37) for
more information.
• Do not connect the IntelliBeam microphone to an extension
cable as doing so may result in an inaccurate sound optimization.
• After you have completed the AUTO SETUP procedure, be sure
to disconnect the IntelliBeam microphone.
• The IntelliBeam microphone is sensitive to heat.
– Keep the IntelliBeam microphone away from direct sunlight.
– Do not place the IntelliBeam microphone on top of this unit.

Installing the IntelliBeam microphone

Place the IntelliBeam microphone at your
normal listening position.
• Use the supplied cardboard microphone stand or a tripod to
place the IntelliBeam microphone at the same height as your
ears would be when you are seated.
• Position the IntelliBeam microphone so that it is parallel with
the floor.

2)
• "BEAM+SOUND OPTIMIZE" screen appears automatically when
the IntelliBeam microphone is connected. "BEAM OPTIMIZE
ONLY" or "SOUND OPTIMIZE ONLY" can be selected separately
in the setup menu (☞p. 26).
2)
Make sure that there are no obstacles between the IntelliBeam
microphone and the walls in your listening room as these objects
obstruct the path of sound beams.
However, any objects that are in contact with the walls will be
regarded as a protruding part of the walls.
• Up to three sets of automatically configured settings can be stored in
