Yamaha YSP-1 Digital Sound Projector
The Yamaha YSP-1 Digital Sound Projector provides the listener with surround sound quality with only one unit. The YSP-1 uses a 40 driver, dual woofer system to achieve five channel surround sound performance. It’s expected to be available in March 2005.
Yamaha employs Digital Sound Projector Technology to provide holographic surround sound from a single flat panel, which forms a multi-channel sound beam to achieved precise control of the delay characteristics of multiple speakers. The YSP-1 projects flat wave fronts of sound and appear to listeners to be located at different points on the panel or via reflections off walls at different points in the room.
