Enjoy the sound field programs This unit is also equipped with a Yamaha digital sound field processing DSP chip.
Sound field program descriptions This unit provides sound field programs for multiple categories including music, movies and stereo reproduction. Spectacle This program represents the spectacular feeling of large-scale movie productions.
It reproduces a broad theater sound field matching the cinemascope and wider-screen movies with an excellent dynamic range from very small to extremely large sound.
Sci-Fi This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the latest science fiction and special effects- featuring movies. Since we generally prefer to leave the DSP modes off, we didn't find this helpful, but those who like the different sound modes may find it useful. We'd prefer if the Scene functions also let us set a default volume level for each scenario; we did appreciate that Yamaha lets you set a specific volume for each time the receiver turns on in the setup menu.
The RX-VBL's included remote is jam-packed full of tiny buttons, making it difficult to use, especially for home theater novices. Luckily, important buttons like volume and the main directional pad are separated enough to be easily differentiated, but input buttons and playback controls are a confusing mass.
The RX-VBL's onscreen display is text-based, and it looks primitive compared with other receivers in this price range; it's a strictly white-text-on-black-background look that you're used to seeing on an old VCR, and it doesn't help that the entire image shakes as if the RX-VBL is struggling to keep it on the screen.
Making matters worse, its simplicity didn't carry over to ease-of-use, as options such as output resolution are under the "HDMI" menu instead of "Display," which instead controls the front panel LCD. We also spent quite a bit of time trying to find the input assignment menu, only to realize the RX-VBL doesn't have the capability to assign inputs more on that later. Setup Yamaha's Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer YPAO automatic speaker calibration system determines speaker sizes and volume levels, measures the distances from the speakers to the listener, confirms that all of the speaker cables are correctly hooked up, and uses equalization to balance the frequency response of all the speakers.
That's what most autosetup systems do; it's just that Yamaha's YPAO is one of the easiest autosetups to use. Press the menu's "Start" button and YPAO will send a series of test tones to all the speakers and subwoofer. It takes just a few minutes to complete and all of the measurements are taken from just one mic position. Yamaha's autosetup routine is much faster and easier than Denon's or Onkyo's.
After the measurements were completed, we tried all three available EQ Types and didn't hear big differences between them; we settled on Flat. Even so, we felt the subwoofer volume was much too loud, so we brought up the RX-VBL's manual setup menu and lowered the sub's volume. It can also upconvert your analog signals all the way up to p, but don't put too much stock in that spec, as we weren't thrilled about the receiver's actual performance more on that in the performance section.
There's support for both XM and Sirius radio--many receivers only support one of the services--although that's less of a plus now that the two companies have merged. From the specs chart, the RX-VBL's connectivity would seem to be pretty complete, but the specs don't tell the whole story. While the rest of the connectivity is in line with comparable models, it's not nearly as flexible as some others, as the RX-VBL lacks the capability to assign audio inputs to any video input you'd like.
So, while there are two component video inputs and two optical-digital-audio inputs, it's not possible to use two component video sources accompanied with optical-digital audio, because one of the component video inputs is permanently assigned to a coaxial-digital-audio input.
In the real world, this will probably be an issue only if you have many analog video sources, but it's an annoying drawback that isn't present on other receivers in this price range. The 7.
