The Yamaha YSP-4100 Digital Sound Projector: Thin Is In
When it comes to innovation, sometimes less is more: the YSP-4100, for example. It's much thinner than previous YSP models for a slimmer, more elegant appearance appropriate for your HDTV or OLED TV. Yet its room-filling surround sound is spectacular.The YSP-4100 Digital Sound Projector offers great new features like HD Audio decoding, 1080p-compatible HDMI (4 in and 1 out), IntelliBeam calibration, UniVolume, and numerous listening modes. Also included are two yAired wireless accessories for connecting to your iPod/iPhone and wireless subwoofer.
How Digital Sound Projector Technology Works
Accurate Projection of Sound Waves Creates Realistic Surround Sound from a Single Speaker Cabinet  Five surround sound channels are directly projected from the YSP; innovative acoustic technology creates two more "phantom" channels |
And it works in any room. Yamaha's eleven CINEMA DSP program settings are guaranteed to create thrillingly realistic soundscapes no matter what your room's dimensions. The main mode is 5-Beam + 2 for 7-channel sources, but you can also choose from 3-Beam + Stereo + 2, 5-Beam, 3-Beam + Stereo, 3-Beam or Stereo, depending on the type of source and your room acoustics, so you'll always be able to get the right sound from your space.
High-Defintion Audio Decoding for the Latest Digital Formats
The YSP-4100 ensures that you hear the best possible sound from any high-definition source, such as Blu-ray. It is capable of decoding the two lossless high-definition audio formats (Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio) as well as the two lossy audio formats (Dolby Digital Plus and DTS HD High Resolution) for the best sound from any source.
Elegant, Space-Saving Design
Built-In Digital Amplifiers Mean No Need for Bulky Added EquipmentThis slim unit has everything necessary for projecting true surround sound built-in: DSP for Digital Signal Processor, 40 beam drivers, two woofers and digital amplifiers. No other receiver, amplifier or speakers are necessary, making the system extremely compact and economical. This also makes it handy for use in a different room (zone) in a custom multi-zone system. What's more, the shape is even thinner (3-1/2" depth) than previous YSP models.
Added Receiver and Amplifier Functions for Maximum Performance

The YSP-4100 provides HDMI connections (4 in/1 out), with support for 1080p resolution. You can connect multiple HDMI sources and enjoy the highest possible video quality when using a 1080p monitor like Deep Color, x.v.Color and Auto Lip-Sync. It is also capable of repeating 1080p/24fps signals from HDMI input to output, maintaining the superior image quality from Blu-ray Disc players and HDTV set top boxes.
Analog Video to HDMI Digital Video Upconversion
The YSP-4100 provides upconversion of video composite and component signals to HDMI. The signal can then be output via a single HDMI cable to a monitor for enjoying high-definition video quality.
IntelliBeam Automated System Calibration
This Yamaha-exclusive feature ensures optimum multi-channel sound reproduction with accurate image location. By monitoring and analyzing the sound with the microphone included with the YSP-4100, Intellibeam automatically sets the best beam angles, while optimizing the level and frequency response of each beam. It also offers Direct Start function via remote unit. This makes initial setup both extremely simple and acoustically perfect.
UniVolume
This welcome feature, made possible by Yamaha-developed technology, maintains a consistent volume level between different channels, programs, commercials and input sources. It can be switched on and off.
HDMI CEC Functionality
When the YSP-4100 is connected to a CEC (Consumer Electronics Control)-compatible TV, the YSP-4100 will turn on and off together with the TV, also allowing you to use the TV remote to control the YSP-4100 volume. With CEC engaged, signals will pass through the YSP-4100 even if it is off. CEC also provides advanced functionality with other components.
Digital Music Enhancer for MP3 Audio
When music is encoded into a digitally compressed format like MP3, the frequency response suffers. This function restores what was lost, so your music always sounds the way it should.
Includes Select yAired Accessories for Wireless Convenience
 Includes a SWK-W10 wireless subwoofer receiver and a YIT-W10 wireless transmitter for iPod/iPhone |
Thanks to Yamaha's yAired technology, you can use your YSP-4100 with an iPod and subwoofer without having to connect any cables. The yAired link transmits uncompressed data (linear PCM) so there is no loss of signal data--unlike systems that use Bluetooth technology to send compressed data--to ensure maximum sound quality.
Charge Your iPod or iPhone and Use It as a Wireless Source
The YIT-W10 provides wireless connection capability to your iPod. This allows you to use the iPod as a remote control while listening to your iPod music, and provides synchronized power on/off. In addition, the iPod charges when it is in the included charging cradle.
Make Any Subwoofer a Wireless Subwoofer
The SWK-W10 allows the wireless connection of any subwoofer for boosting bass sound. Simply connect the SWK-W10 receiver to any subwoofer make or model to turn it into an instant wireless subwoofer. And if you're using your iPod/iPhone as a source via the YIT-W10, turning on the iPod/iPhone automatically turns on the YSP-4100 and the wireless subwoofer.
