Listening Care – Advanced

Listening Care on the Yamaha YH-L700 wireless headphone takes a real-time, adaptive approach that uses the data for the past 5 seconds, calculating the average volume level every 0.7ms. The correction applied across a 4-band EQ is adaptive according to the average volume level. Optimization is therefore realized with significantly higher accuracy, relative to the content volume on an ongoing basis. Further, in order to obtain a more natural effect, the correction parameters are applied slowly over time. Your listening experience is customized to the music and your surroundings meaning a completely individualized sound, just for you.

Listening Optimizer

Yamaha’s Listening Optimizer utilizes an in-ear microphone to measure the seal and air leakage from different shaped ears every 20 seconds. Playback is optimized in real-time to correct the difference between the source and the actual listening condition, delivering a sound customized to the individual listener.

Advanced Active Noise Cancelling

Active noise cancellation has a reputation for losing low frequency signals during music playback. Advanced ANC takes a new approach, suppressing ambient noise without applying any processing to the music signal.

In-ear microphones listen to the combined signals of music and noise, separating the signal processing of background noise and music. It achieves this by isolating the two from each other in a new, unique algorithm.

The signal collected by the inner microphone analyzes the noise, calculating what should be removed from the playback music signal so that only noise is erased. This means there is no unnecessary processing of the music signal, preserving the purity of the music.

3D Sound Field

3D SOUND FIELD draws on over 30 years of using CINEMA DSP processing in home theater products to transform 2-channel listening into a multi-channel experience. It localizes the sound source by using proprietary HRTF (head-related transfer function) audio technology, synthesizing binaural audio and rendering the two-channel sound source into a three-dimensional sound space.

Battery

Charging Time: about 3.5Ｈ

Usage Time : Max 34H (Advanced ANC=ON, 3D Sound Field=OFF)

Usage Time : Max 11H (Advanced ANC=ON, 3D Sound Field=ON)

Voice Assistant/Hands-Free

Use your voice not your hands. Voice assistants* such as Siri and Google Assistant* are available with a single touch on the headphone/earphone. Hands-free calling is possible by operating the buttons on the main unit.

*Availability of voice command services varies by region.

Swivel Folding

Folding of the Yamaha YH-L700A headphones makes for even easier portability reducing the headphone size significantly making them the perfect travel partner.

Line In

When wireless listening isn’t important, using the line-in allows you to use the DAC of your Hi-Res audio device for better sound, or simply minimizes additional battery usage when using wireless connectivity.
