YHT-385B - 6.1 Channel Home Theatre Package
High Quality Sound
Digital ToP-ART and High Current
Amplification
The Digital ToP-ART design concept
combines the latest and best
technologies, parts and circuit designs
to maximize sound quality. High
Current Amplification uses superior
components to achieve high current
power with low impedance from
power supply circuit to speaker
terminals.
192kHz/24-Bit DACs for All
Channels
This receiver uses extremely high
performance 192kHz/24-bit DACs for
all channels. They perform accurate
sound field reproduction for high
quality multi-channel sources, and for
two-channel stereo, provide
outstanding separation and precise
musical delineation. They deliver
superior low level linearity with
excellent full-scale performance.
HDTV Compatible 3 Component
Video Input Terminals (Fixed and
Assignable)
This model has three component
video inputs instead of the usual one
or two. You can enjoy three different
sources without having to change
connections.
Component Video Up-Conversion
Component video up conversion
(composite to S-Video and
component, S-Video to component) as
well as down video conversion (S-
Video to composite) is automatically
applied to incoming signals.
Digital Video Processing with TBC
Analogue Devices’ high performance
encoder and decoder digitally
processes the video signal to ensure
high image quality. A Time Base
Corrector (TBC) eliminates time base
errors such as curved or bent lines
that should be straight.
High Performance CINEMA DSP
LSI
This receiver uses Yamaha’s recently
developed LSI with 64-bit floating
point quantization processing, for high
speed, high density digital sound field
processing.
Quad-Field/Tri-Field CINEMA DSP
and 14 Surround Programmes
Yamaha’s ultra-sophisticated Quad-
Field and Tri-Field CINEMA DSP
technology creates thrillingly realistic
soundscapes in your room. 14
surround programmes provide full
format compatibility and extensive
listening choices.
Compressed Music Enhancer
When music is encoded in a digital
compressed format such as MP3,
frequency response suffers in the high
and low ranges. Yamaha employs
sophisticated digital signal processing
with our exclusive algorithms to
enable playback that improves
compressed music quality.
On-Screen Display
The receiver displays operating status,
iPod operating commands and radio
information (varies by area) on the
screen. This is very convenient,
because you can change the receiver
settings while viewing the screen.
Convenience and Quality for 6.1-
Channel Movie Sound
Choose the NS-P436BG speaker
package and you get the convenience
of an all-in-one system with high
quality speakers. Not only are these
speakers perfectly matched for
acoustics and design, but they take
advantage of unique technologies that
Yamaha originally developed for its
high-end speakers. With an amplifier
or receiver and a DVD player, you’ll
enjoy movies with sensational
surround sound. What’s more, even
with their extremely high quality,
these speakers are small enough for
easy positioning in rooms of any size.
Advanced Facilities
Advanced Design for High Sound
Quality

centre) speakers have a two-way
acoustic suspension design with one
coaxial two-way driver (5cm cone and

driver (5cm cone). The centre speaker
has the same coaxial two-way driver,
and also includes dual 5cm cone full-
range drivers. All seven of these
speakers are rated at 100W maximum
input, more than enough for dynamic
