7. Accessories – Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should follow manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
8. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.
9. Power Sources – This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label.
If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
10. Grounding and Polarization – This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
11. Power-cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
12. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to the proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
13. Lightning – For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable systems. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.
14. Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
15. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in
a risk of fire or electric shock.
16. Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any kind through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points
or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Do not expose this product to dripping or splashing and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, are placed on the product.
17. Servicing – Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
18. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified personnel under
the following conditions:
• When power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product.
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal operation.
• If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
• If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance – this indicates a need for service.
19. Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are required, be sure the technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
20. Safety Check – Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

Read before calling for technical support due to bad, intermittent, or no picture via HDMI!
1080p uses twice the bandwidth that 720p and 1080i do – make sure that the cable is suitable for the application otherwise the picture may contain pixel dropouts or not play at all.
Use HDMI Category 2 cables, also known as “v1.3 certified”. This is a requirement for all connecting devices including extenders when connecting a display that supports Deep Color (10- or 12-bit). Connecting devices that worked in an older setup may not work with Deep Color. If the source allows Deep Color to be turned off, start troubleshooting by turning it off.
12-bit Deep Color that works at 1080p24 may not work at 1080p50 or 1080p60.
BE CAREFUL WHEN MAKING HDMI CONNECTIONS. The connector should easily slide in the jack – do not insert it on an angle and do not force it. Each connector contains 19 delicate pins and damaged pins can damage jacks. Such damaged jacks are not covered by warranty. If your HDMI cables have been connected enough times that they are about to wear out, we recommend that you replace them.
If using DVI connection note that cables with DVI connection on one end and HDMI connection on the other are more reliable than DVI-HDMI adapters. If you are having a connection problem and an adapter is in use, start troubleshooting by eliminating the adapter.

2. CONNECTIONS
2.1 VIDEO CONNECTIONS
To configure inputs see section 3.6 and to configure video outputs see section 3.1.
HDMI:
Video is sent with audio from source components to the processor. Maximum video resolution is 1080p60. Connect MAIN HDMI output to a display with HDMI or DVI input – one with High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is required to display copy-protected material. DVD players usually enable HDCP even on home movies. If the source is protected, only HDMI video output is active (see section 4.14).
Component Video:
Component video uses three coaxial cables and has a maximum resolution of 1080p when unprocessed or 480p when the source is copy-protected with Macrovision. Maximum input resolution is 1080i60 if the input is processed or converted to HDMI. The second Component output can be used in MAIN, processed or unprocessed, or in ZONE2.
HDMI switching requires at least two seconds per stage, i.e. at least four seconds from source to processor to display.
S-Video:
Maximum resolution is 480i (NTSC) / 576i (PAL). This connection keeps brightness and color separate for a better picture than Composite. S-Video input can be converted to Component and HDMI output (MAIN only).
Composite Video:
Maximum resolution is 480i (NTSC) / 576i (PAL). This traditional format combines the black/white and color information for transmission on a single coaxial cable. To be displayed, the information has to be separated, a process that degrades video quality. Composite inputs can not be converted or processed. If you use a VCR, one with S-Video output is recommended. If a composite video source is black and white, it can be plugged into a Component video’s Y input. If there is no choice but to convert a color source’s composite output, a composite to S-Video converter
is needed (not an adapter turned backwards).

2. CONNECTIONS continued …
2.2 AUDIO CONNECTIONS
Digital Audio Inputs and Outputs:
Digital audio source components can be connected with a coaxial, optical, balanced, or HDMI cable. These carry 2-channel PCM, Dolby Digital, and DTS. The HDMI inputs also accept up to eight channels of PCM.
Should you need audio from the HDMI output to your display, it’s 2-channel PCM.
Use the HDMI inputs if your display has HDCP-compliant HDMI or DVI input, otherwise use the coaxial or optical inputs. The processor also provides one balanced AES/EBU connection, which is used on professional equipment. Any digital input can be assigned to any number of sources that are set to digital.
To change digital audio connection from factory default, see section 3.6.
Digital Rec-Out can provide a signal to the digital audio input of a Mini Disc recorder, CD recorder etc. from any source set to Digital (except HDMI) or Anlg-DSP – see sections 3.6 to 3.9.
Analog Audio Inputs:
Analog audio connections are made with RCA or XLR cables. To use ZONE2, ZONE3, or RECORD, connect digital and
analog audio and video* from the source. ZONE2, ZONE3, and RECORD require analog connection
unless set to copy MAIN (explained in sections 3.6 and 4.3).
6-Ch Analog Input:
The 6-Ch input is for connecting DVD-Audio and multichannel SACD players that do not have HDMI output. When 6-Ch is selected, the video signal from DVD input is routed to the video outputs by factory default – to change this, see section 3.6.
HDMI connection with cable and satellite receivers may be problematic especially when output resolution follows each channel (native or pass-through mode). If there is a problem with HDMI from cable or satellite use component video connection instead, with coax or optical connection for audio. As these connections were designed to carry HDTV formats, there is almost never a difference in picture and sound quality with proper settings. As well, switching between channels is faster.
*Some boxes disable their component video output once HDMI is connected. To use the box in a secondary zone that uses component video, connect the box to the processor via component, not HDMI.

2. CONNECTIONS continued …
MAIN AUDIO-OUT (BALANCED)
SUB 2
MAIN AUDIO-OUT
Analog Audio Outputs:
Balanced connection offers the highest transmission quality over long cable lengths, because it rejects noise pickup. In the processor, XLR output voltage is twice that of RCA (6 dB higher). The RCA outputs and the XLR outputs are always active – both can be used at the same time if the system requires it.
Parallel outputs are provided for a second center channel speaker and/or subwoofer. If your screen is large, you might want to use one center channel speaker above it and another one below it. One way to tame room resonances is by using multiple subwoofers playing the same signal from different locations in the room.
If you are not using the second set of balanced SUB2 and CENTER2 outputs, they can be reassigned as ZONE2 L/R outputs to ensure noise rejection if the ZONE2 amplifier has balanced input and it’s at a distance from the processor (see section 3.9).
If you’re using one rear channel, use the Rear-L output to connect it (see section 3.3).
Shown below are the analog audio RECORD outputs which connect to the audio inputs of recording devices, together with the outputs that connect to amplifiers for ZONE2 and ZONE3:
Why am I not getting sound in ZONE2, ZONE3, or RECORD?
For ZONE2, ZONE3, and RECORD to have any output, the source components being used there must be connected to the processor with the same type of connection
. For example, if a source is connected via HDMI, there won’t be output in ZONE2 unless you make additional connections from the source to the processor – analog L/R for audio, and Component, S-Video, or Composite video – whichever type the display in ZONE2 uses.
The exception is when using Copy mode for audio – see section 4.3.

2. CONNECTIONS continued …
2.3 FM • AM ANTENNAS
To connect the AM loop antenna, press the spring-loaded tabs of the AM ANTENNA connector and insert the bare ends of the two wires. Move the antenna until best reception is found.
To connect the FM antenna, connect the two wires to the screw terminals of the 75-ohm to 300-ohm adapter, then connect the adapter to the FM ANTENNA connector. Move the antenna until best reception is found – this is usually a “T” formation. If your cable company provides FM service, you can connect the cable to the processor.
2.4 12 VOLT TRIGGERS
If your other components have provisions for a trigger, you can have them turn on and off together with the processor, or when a specified source is selected. Connect a trigger output from the processor to the trigger input of your power amplifier, display, etc., using a cable with 3.5mm mono mini plugs.
The processor provides flexible trigger options. From the factory, all the triggers are disabled. Through the setup menu, you can specify the conditions for enabling triggers (see section 3.11).
75-ohm to 300-ohm adapter
2.5 POWERED IR (INFRA RED) RECEIVERS
External IR receivers allow the remote control to be used from other locations in your home. Once an IR receiver is wired to another room, connect it to one of the three IR RECEIVER inputs through the removable terminal block. To use the terminal block, remove it from the processor, loosen the proper screw, insert the wire in the slot, tighten the screw onto the wire, and insert the terminal block into the processor. See section 3.11 for Setup information.
In addition, there is no need for an external 12V supply to power the receivers – use the processor’s built-in supply instead for up to three IR receivers and connect according to the IR receiver manufacturer’s instructions.
Custom Installers: The processor’s IR inputs sense modulated 38 kHz carrier, not demodulated data. With some control systems, an emitter face-to-face with an IR receiver may be needed.
2.6 IR (INFRA RED) EMITTERS
IR emitters allow control of your source components from any location in your home that has an IR receiver connected to the processor. After positioning the IR emitter according to its instructions, connect it to IR EMITTER output. Commands through the rear
IR RECEIVER are re-transmitted through the IR emitters.
2.7 POWER
Connect the power cord to the processor and the power source then turn on the rear panel AC switch.

3. SETUP
For optimum performance and enjoyment, your processor should be properly set up. This may appear like a lot of work but keep in mind that most settings do not need to be changed from the factory ones.
The most important things are entering information about your display and speakers if the defaults do not apply, the distance from each speaker to the listening area, balancing output levels to one another, and input connections. The rest is preference – the surround mode presets, for example, should be set up after you have played various sources and have decided which surround modes you like best.
For proper audio balance, menus involving test noises must be set up in the order that they appear.
Alternatively, most of the setup can be done on your personal computer through RS-232 connection and a program from our web site, called Setup Editor. This can also save your configuration as a backup file. Setup Editor cannot play test signals – calibration still has to be done through the setup menu.
HOW TO ENTER THE SETUP MENU
The setup menu can be accessed from MAIN and ZONE2. The on-screen display shows only in that path. Test noises play only from MAIN.
Remote Control Front Panel
Make sure the appropriate control mode is set Make sure the appropriate path is selected then press then press MENU or SUB/LFE for 3 seconds. and hold STATUS (Setup) for 3 seconds.
HOW TO NAVIGATE IN THE SETUP MENU
• Use the 56 buttons to scroll through menus.
• Press SELECT to choose a menu item.
• Use the 56 and 34 buttons to change settings.
• Press BACK to return to previous item or menu.
HOW TO EXIT FROM THE SETUP MENU
Press BACK as many times as necessary. Each time BACK is pressed the previous item or menu returns. The menu will exit if not used for 5 minutes to prevent a burned-in on-screen image.

3. SETUP continued …
SETTING UP THE PROCESSOR
Upon entering the setup menu your display will show the menu below. Only 8 menu items can be displayed at once – for clarity this manual shows each menu with all its items. On-screen display is recommended although the front panel shows similar information, one item at a time. If the default video output settings do not work with your display, use the front panel display to set video output. Setup menus are displayed through MAIN HDMI and Component (processed) outputs, and MAIN and ZONE2 S-Video outputs, whereas the 2-line status display and the video processing menu are displayed as follows:
MAIN on-screen display is available via HDMI1 output by default. On-screen display comes from HDMI2 and Component (processed) if “Preferred” is changed to “Component” in menu 1 submenus. S-Video on-screen display is available in both cases.
ZONE2 on-screen display is available via S-Video output.

3. SETUP continued …
Video Output Configurations:
The Statement D2v allows you to set four video output configurations – only Configuration 1 is needed in most cases. The rest can be used to match the output refresh rate to source refresh rates, i.e. 1080p24, 1080p50, and 1080p60 if settings – only one display can be used at a time in this case. Output assignment by source is explained in section 3.6, and on-the-fly selection is explained at the end of section 4.11.
Calibration professionals: Live Video Settings Editor, a program downloadable from our web site, allows control via computer and file creation for video processing described in section 4.11, plus gamma correction (single or separate RGB curves) and custom output resolution and timing.
Once entering Configurations 2 through 4, the menu asks whether or not you want to use the same settings as Configuration 1 – the factory default is Yes. If different settings are used, the output changes according to the line that’s highlighted in the VIDEO OUTPUT menu. Highlighting VIDEO OUT CONFIG 1 in the VIDEO OUTPUT menu then pressing SELECT displays this menu:
your display accepts these rates, or with a secondary display that needs different

Items a. through g. pertain to MAIN output only.
Changes in this menu do not take place immediately to prevent loss of video output as you scroll through settings. Once you leave this menu, it asks for confirmation – use the 34 buttons to change to Yes, then
press SELECT. To put a change into effect before leaving the menu, press SELECT then confirm.
If using both HDMI outputs and a conflict results when attempting to use two displays at the same time, ensure that “automation” features that displays sometimes use to determine which of their HDMI inputs have a signal are disabled. The input selection must remain on the one connected to the processor.
When two displays are connected and powered on, the EDID (handshake info) from the one connected to HDMI1 is used in regard to Auto selections in the menu above, even if it results in output that the display connected to HDMI2 does not support.
17
3. SETUP continued …
How should I set my video sources to get the most out of video processing?
Where possible disable video processing in your sources so the Statement D2v’s advanced processing can be used to its potential.
For standard DVD, set the player’s output to 480i/576i because if output is progressive you will be looking at the player’s deinterlacing, not the Statement D2v’s. If the player does not allow 480i/576i HDMI output, using 480i/576i component and 576i (PAL) according to source, you can use that setting – the Statement D2v accepts both formats.
If your HD cable/satellite receiver has passthrough mode where output resolution follows each station’s resolution, use it. If not, set the receiver’s output according to the HD channels that you watch most.
HD material on disc is natively 1080p24 or 1080i60 – if your player has a passthrough mode where output resolution and refresh rate follow that of the source, you can use it with Configuration 1 resolution set to, for example, 1920x1080p60 and Configuration 2 set to 1920x1080p24.
If your sources do not allow native (passthrough) video output, consider purchasing ones that do.
How should I set my display to get the most out of video processing?
If your display allows, set it to 1:1 pixel or dot-for-dot mode. The display’s stretch modes, including edge cropping or overscan, should not be used if avoidable since they rescale the image unnecessarily.
video output may be best. If the player can be set to put out both 480i (NTSC)
S-Video On-Screen Display Format:
If using S-Video output use the 34 buttons to select NTSC or PAL, whichever matches your display. If your display supports both formats, try NTSC first.
Preferred Video Output:
Use the 34 buttons to select Component or HDMI – the video will be optimized for that type. The other output is disabled except to show menus. When Component is selected HDMI-only selections are not shown
.
18
3. SETUP continued …
Output Resolution:
Input from S-Video, Component, and HDMI is scaled to this resolution for Component and HDMI output. If interlaced to progressive scan conversion is in effect, it is uncompromisingly pixel-adaptive even with 1080i, and the same robust film mode detection applies as with standard-definition interlaced input.
Resolution is expressed as follows:
number of pixels across the screen
frames per second (Hz)
1920x1080p60
number of pixels or lines from top to bottom
scan type: p=progressive, i=interlaced
From the list below, use the setting that gives the best picture on your display. Other resolutions and refresh rates are available through Live Video Settings Editor including computer monitor and custom resolutions.
• 720 x 480i or 480p at 60 Hz (480i is not applicable to DVI input on display)
• 720 x 576i or 576p at 50 Hz (576i is not applicable to DVI input on display)
• 1280 x 720p at 50 Hz or 60 Hz

selected, the HDMI output uses YCbCr format and Component output uses YPbPr.
To determine whether Studio vs Extended RGB is the correct setting, compare shadow detail in dark scenes or play the color bar test pattern in section 4.11 and look at the stripes in the lower right. If using YCbCr output, compare detail around edges in colorful scenes to determine whether 4:2:2 vs 4:4:4 is best.
If colors look totally wrong with all sources, try all settings before contacting tech support
. If colors look
wrong only when certain sources are selected, see section 4.11.
§ Auto setting: Works with most displays, but you may get a better result selecting the format manually.

Letterbox:
When the source’s aspect ratio (the proportion of image width to height) does not match the display’s aspect ratio and you want to preserve the original image’s proportions, the unused areas of the screen will be blank. You can select the shade of these areas from ten levels between light gray and black. If you do not want letterbox (bars on top/bottom) or pillarbox (sidebars) on your screen, see section 4.11.
Synchronization:
Try Inverted setting if the image via HDMI is not centered or does not show – typically needed only with some older displays.
Component 2 Out:
The second Component video output can be configured in one of the following three ways or turned Off:
• MAIN output, processed (same signal as Component 1).
• MAIN output, passthrough – this bypasses the video processing and on-screen display is not available. If a secondary display in the main room does not accept the format being fed to the main display, use this setting.
• ZONE2 output – bypasses video processing and on-screen display not available.

Timer Options:
There are two Timers for Main and each Zone to allow greater flexibility. You can set week and weekend on/off times twice – once for the morning and again for the evening, for example.
Using the 34 buttons, TIMER 1 and TIMER 2 choices are:
• Off – Timer is disabled.
• Week – Timer operates from Monday to Friday.
• Wkend – Timer operates on Saturday and Sunday.
• Wk+Wkend – Timer operates every day.
On and Off Times:
Auto-on/off times are entered for:
T1 or T2 WEEKDAY ON: Sets the Monday to Friday turn-on time.
T1 or T2 WEEKDAY OFF: Sets the Monday to Friday turn-off time.
T1 or T2 WEEKEND ON: Sets the Saturday and Sunday turn-on time.
T1 or T2 WEEKEND OFF: Sets the Saturday and Sunday turn-off time.
Timers may also be set to only turn on or only turn off (see Example 2) – this way, the processor can be set to turn on automatically, and it won’t turn off until you turn it off manually.
If the processor is already on, Timer On settings are ignored to ensure that source and volume are not changed while in use.
Source:
Select what you want to be playing when a Timer turns the power on – any source, any preset FM • AM station, or Last Stn (the tuner setting when processor was turned off). Be sure that the source and the power amplifier are turned on or will be on at the Timer turn-on time. If your components have trigger inputs, you can set a processor trigger to turn them on (see section 3.11).
On-Volume:
Sets the volume that will play when a Timer turns the power on. The volume increases slowly when a Timer turns the power on.
