Professional Installation?
It may be that the Receiver has been installed and set up as part of your Hi-Fi installation by a qualied Arcam dealer. In this case, you may wish to skip the sections of this handbook dealing with installation and setting up, and move directly to the sections dealing with using the unit. Use the Contents list to guide you to these sections.
DIY setup?
e Receiver is a powerful and sophisticated piece of AV equipment. If you are setting the unit up yourself, it is recommended that you read this handbook thoroughly before beginning. For instance, correct speaker conguration and placement is a key to getting the most out of your Receiver and making sure that all the elements of your system work in harmony.

before you
begin…
e Receivers are high-quality and high-performance home-cinema processors and ampliers built to Arcam’s quality design and manufacturing standards. ey combine digital processing with high-performance audio and video components to bring you an unrivalled home-entertainment centre.
e Receiver allows switching and control of seven analogue and six digital audio sources in addition to internal FM and DAB radios – as well as networked and USB audio sources – making any of the models an ideal hub for both home-cinema and two-channel stereo systems.
Since many of these source components are also capable of generating video signals, the Receiverincludes broadcast-quality switching for HDMI (6 x HDMI2.0a, HDCP2.2 & 1 x MHL) video/audio signals. Control of
the Receiver is either by front panel control buttons, IR remote control, IP (Ethernet) control or RS232 port.
e remote control supplied with the Receiver is a multi-device ‘universal’ learning remote control which is simple to use, and once set up is able to control a complete system. It can be programmed using its vast internal code library to control CD and BD players, PVRs, TVs and other devices.
e installation of the Receiver in a listening room is an important process which requires care at every stage. For this reason, the installation information is very comprehensive and should be followed carefully to achieve an unrivalled level of performance.
e Receiver designed to produce a level of performance that will truly bring music and movies to life.

Placing the unit
< Place the unit on a level, rm surface, avoiding
direct sunlight and sources of heat or damp.
< Do not place the Receiver on top of a power
amplier or other source of heat.
< Do not place the amplier in an enclosed space
such as a bookcase or closed cabinet unless there is good provision for ventilation. e Receiver will run warm during normal operation.
< Do not place any other component or item on top
of the amplier as this may obstruct airow around the heat-sink, causing the amplier to run hot. (e unit placed on top of the amplier would become hot, too.)
< Make sure the remote-control receiver on the front
panel display is unobstructed, otherwise this will impair the use of the remote-control. If line-of-sight is impractical, a remote-control repeater can be used with the rear panel connector (see page E-14).
< Do not place your record deck on top of this
unit. Record decks are very sensitive to the noise generated by mains power supplies which will be heard as a background ‘hum’ if the record deck is too close.
Power
e amplier is supplied with a moulded mains plug already tted to the lead. Check that the plug supplied ts your supply – should you require a new mains lead, please contact your Arcam dealer.
If your mains supply voltage or mains plug is dierent, please contact your Arcam dealer immediately.
e Receiver can be switched for operation between 220–240V (switch position 230V) and 110–120V (switch position 115V).
NOTE
Ensure that the Receiver is switched o and the power lead removed before changing the position of the voltage range switch.
Push the IEC plug end of the power cable into the socket on the back of the amplier, making sure that it is pushed in rmly. Plug the other end of the cable into your mains socket and, if necessary, switch the socket on.
e Receiver can be turned on using the POWER switch on the front panel. While switched on, the front panel LED will glow green.
Standby power
e Receiver can be switched into standby mode using the 2 button on the remote control. While in standby mode the front panel LED will glow red and power consumption is less than 0.5Watts.
While in Standby mode, it may be possible to hear a slight residual hum coming from the mains transformer inside the amplier. is is perfectly normal. However, if the unit is to be le unused for an extended period, we recommend that you disconnect it from the mains supply to save power.
Interconnect cables
We recommend the use of high-quality screened cables that are designed for the particular application. Other cables will have dierent impedance characteristics that will degrade the performance of your system (for example, do not use cabling intended for video use to carry audio signals). All cables should be kept as short as is practically possible.
It is good practice when connecting your equipment to make sure that the mains power-supply cabling is kept as far away as possible from your audio cables. Failure to do so may result in unwanted noise in the audio signals.
For information on speaker cabling, please refer to the ‘Speakers’ section, beginning on page E-15.
Radio interference
e Receiver is an audio device containing microprocessors and other digital electronics. Each model has been designed to very high standards of electromagnetic compatibility.
is is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
If the Receiver causes interference to radio or television reception (which can be determined by switching the Receiver o and on), the following measures should be taken:
< Re-orient the receiving antenna or route the antenna
cable of the aected receiver as far as possible from Receiver and its cabling.
< Relocate the receiver with respect to the Receiver. < Connect the aected device and the Receiver to
dierent mains outlets.
If the problem persists, please contact your Arcam dealer.

audio/video connections
Before connecting your Receiver to your source components and speakers, please read through the next few pages which will explain all the input and output connectivity that is available. e ‘Speakers’ section explains how to connect up your speakers to avoid damage to the amplier and how to arrange your speakers for best performance.
General
e inputs are named to make it easier to reference connected devices (e.g. ‘BD’ or ‘VCR’). ey all have the same input circuit, so there is no reason why you should not connect a dierent device to any of the inputs. For example, if you had two BD players and the AV input was not being used, then the second BD player could be connected to the AV input.
When connecting a video source, its audio must be connected to the corresponding sockets. For example, if you had a satellite decoder plugged into a S AT video input, the audio must be connected to the S AT audio inputs!
Making connections
< Take care to place cables as far from any power
supply cabling as is practicable, to reduce hum and other noise problems.

Connection guide
Blu-ray Disc (BD)/DVD player
e diagram shows how to make audio and video connections from a typical BD/DVD player.
e preferred audio hook-up is using the HDMI or coaxial digital connector (usually marked
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT), in addition to the coaxial analogue
outputs for le and right channels. In each case, use the audio inputs labelled BD on the
Receiver.
Satellite receiver
A satellite receiver is connected in the same way as a BD player, with the same order of preference according to the outputs provided by the satellite receiver.
In each case, use the inputs labelled SAT on the Receiver. Note that digital audio input from a satellite receiver sometimes requires a coaxial/TOSLINK (digital connector) interconnect cable, as some satellite receivers do not implement audio over HDMI properly or at all.
CD player
Connect the digital audio output (if provided by the CD player) to the digital CD input of the Receiver, using a high quality coaxial interconnect cable.

Aerial connectors
e Receiver is tted with an FM and a DAB/DAB+ receiver module. e type of aerial you need depends on your listening preferences and the local conditions.
Your Receiver is capable of superb radio reception, but only if it is receiving a good quality transmission signal.
Try the aerials supplied with your unit. If you are in a medium to strong signal area, these should be adequate for good reception. In areas with poor signal strength, you may require a roof or lo mounted aerial.
Contact your local Arcam dealer or aerial installation experts for advice about local reception conditions.
FM/DAB
USB 5V / 1A
English
ZONE 2 L
In strong signal areas, the DAB/FM ‘T’ wire aerial supplied can be used with reasonable results. Mount the aerial as high up as possible on a wall.
In the UK the ‘T’-elements need to be
positioned vertically for DAB reception
since broadcasts are vertically polarised. In other localities, check with your
Arcam dealer or try both horizontal and vertical positions for best reception.
Try each usable wall of the room to
see which gives best reception and use tacks or adhesive tape to secure the aerial in a ‘T’ shape, but note
that no tacks should come into contact
with the internal wire of the aerial.
When installed and receiving DAB/FM,
check the signal strength by pressing
the front panel or remote control’s INFO
button until the signal quality indicator is displayed.
In weak signal areas, a high-gain, externally­mounted or roof-mounted aerial is desirable in
order to receive the highest number of services.
In Band III transmission areas (such as the UK),
use a multi-element Yagi aerial with the elements
mounted vertically, as the transmissions are vertically polarised. If you are close to more than one
transmitter, use an omnidirectional or folded dipole aerial.
If the DAB services in your area are transmitted on
L-band, then ask your dealer for advice for the best
aerial to use.

e centre speaker allows for a more realistic reproduction of dialogue. e centre speaker should have a similar tonal balance to the front le and right speakers and be positioned at a similar height.
Surround back left and right
e surround back le and right speakers are used to add extra depth and better sound localisation and should be installed approximately one metre higher than the listener’s ears. Place the two surround back speakers such that there is an arc of approximately 150 degrees between each surround back speaker and the centre speaker. e surround back speakers should face the front of the room as shown in the diagram to provide the largest ‘sweet spot’.

It is important that no stray strands of wire from these connections are allowed to touch another cable or the product casing. Failure to ensure this can cause a short circuit and damage your Receiver.
Do not over-tighten the loudspeaker terminals, or use a wrench, pliers, etc., as this could damage the terminals and this would not be covered under the product’s warranty.
Speaker cables
e speakers should be connected to the amplier using good-quality, high-purity, low impedance copper cables. Cheap speaker cables should be avoided – they are a false economy and can signicantly degrade the sound quality.
e cable runs to the speakers should be as short as practicable. Connections to the speaker terminals should always be nger tight, whether using bare wires or spade connectors.

Bi-amping the Front Left & Front Right speakers
Bi-amping is the use of two amplier channels per speaker. Bi-amping can provide better sound quality than conventional single wiring. If you do not have Surround Back speakers (i.e. you have a 5.1 surround system, not a 7.1 system) then you can use the spare Surround Back speaker outputs to bi-amplify the front le and right speakers, if your speakers support bi-amping. e spare channels can alternatively be used to power stereo speakers in another room (Zone 2).
Speakers that support bi-amping have two sets of +/- terminals per speaker, usually linked together by metal strips. ese metal strips MUST be removed when bi-amping; failure to remove them will result in damage to the amplier that is not covered under warranty.
To bi-amp the front le and right speakers, remove the metal strips from the speaker terminals. Connect the woofer or LF terminals to the FL and FR terminals on the Receiver. Connect the tweeter or HF terminals to the SBL and SBR terminals on the Receiver. Finally, navigate to the Setup Menu ‘Spkr Types’ and set the ‘Use Channels 6+7 for’ menu option to ‘BiAmp L+R’; see page E-26.

The universal remote controller
e Receiver is supplied with a sophisticated ‘universal’ backlit remote control that can control up to eight devices. It is pre-programmed for use with the Receiver and many other Arcam products (FM/DAB tuners, CD players and DVD players).
With its extensive built-in library of codes, it can also be used with thousands of third party audio-visual components – TVs, satellite and set-top boxes, PVRs, CD players, etc. See the list of codes at the back of this handbook, beginning on page 47.
It is also a ‘learning’ remote, so you can teach it almost any function from an old single-device remote.
Inserting batteries into the remote control
1. Open the battery compartment on the back of the handset, by sliding its cover o.
2. Insert two ‘AAA’ batteries, as indicated in the battery compartment.
3. Slide the battery compartment cover back rmly into its locked position with a click.
Using the remote control
Please keep in mind the following when using the remote control:
< Ensure there are no obstacles between the
remote control and the remote sensor on the Receiver. e remote has a range of about 7 metres. (If the remote sensor is obscured, the Z1 IR remote control input jack on the rear panel is available. Please consult your dealer for further information.)
< Remote operation may become unreliable if
strong sunlight or uorescent light is shining on the remote sensor of the Receiver.
< Replace the batteries when you notice a
reduction in the operating range of the remote control.
Notes on batteries:
< Incorrect use of batteries can result in hazards such
as leakage and bursting.
< Do not mix old and new batteries together. < Do not use non-identical batteries together –
although they may look similar, dierent batteries may have dierent voltages.
< Ensure the plus (+) and minus (-) ends of each
battery match the direction indicated in the battery compartment.
< Remove batteries from equipment that is not going
to be used for a month or more.
< When disposing of used batteries, please comply
with governmental or local regulations that apply in your country or area.

Useful information
Backlight
A backlight comes on for eight seconds whenever a key is pressed. is helps you use the handset in subdued lighting conditions.
LED blinks
Short blinks indicate a valid key press. Multiple short blinks convey information (such as a
device code) or signal the beginning and successful completion of a programming sequence.
e symbol ‘*’ is used in the manual to indicate an LED blink.
Timeouts and unassigned keys
Time out – Aer 30 seconds the remote exits the programming state and returns to normal operation.
Stuck key timeout – Aer any key is pressed continuously for 30 seconds, the remote stops sending IR transmission to conserve battery life. e remote remains o until all keys are released.
Unassigned keys – the remote ignores any unassigned key presses for a particular Device Mode and does not transmit IR.
Low voltage indicator
When the batteries are running down, the backlight ashes briey whenever you press a button.
If this happens, t two new AAA alkaline batteries as soon as possible.
Device Mode/Source keys
As the remote can control your Receiver as well as a range of other equipment: many of the buttons have more than one function depending on the ‘device mode’ selected on the remote control.
e Device Mode keys (shown below) select the source on the Receiver. If one of these keys is pressed briey, a command is transmitted to change the source on the unit. Also the functionality of the remote control changes to operate the selected source device; it’s like having a bundle of dierent remotes in your hand!
Internal FM or DAB tuner input
Auxiliary input
Ethernet input (e.g. Internet radio)
External USB device (audio les on pen drive, etc.)
Audio-visual sound input (use with TV)
Satellite input
Personal Video Recorder (or Digital Video Recorder) input
Games console input
e remote remains in the last selected Device Mode so it is not necessary to press a Device Mode key before every command key if all you are doing is playing or skipping tracks on a CD, for example.
Navigation keys
e Navigation keys steer the cursor in Setup menus or on-screen menus. ey also replicate the navigation functions of original remotes supplied with other home entertainment
devices in your system. OK conrms a setting.
Volume control
By default, the remote is set up so that the volume control and mute buttons always control the volume of the Receiver, regardless of which Device Mode the remote is currently set for. is is known as volume ‘punch through’.
For example, if you are listening to a CD, you will probably have the remote in CD Device Mode to control the CD player. You can use the volume controls on the remote directly to adjust the volume of the Receiver without rst having to press AMP to put the remote into
AMP Device Mode. e volume buttons ‘punch through’
the CD Device Mode on the remote to the AMP Device Mode.
Volume ‘punch through’ can be disabled individually for any Device Mode if desired.
Customising the remote
e remote oers a Code Learning feature that allows you to copy up to 16 functions from an original remote control onto the remote keypad. For details of this, and other customisation features, see “customising the remote” on page E-38.
The remote complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules
is equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. ese limits are designed to provide a reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. is equipment generates, uses, and can radiated radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet or a circuit
dierent from that to which the receiver is connected.

essential
setup
Before you use your Receiver it is essential that you enter some information into the Setup menus about your speaker conguration. is allows the Receiver to process any surround sound digital source to exactly match your system and give you the ultimate surround sound experience.
ere are three pieces of vital information which are outlined in the sections: ‘Speaker Types’, ‘Speaker Distances’ and ‘Speaker Levels’.
e way you enter this information manually into the Receiver is given later in the ‘Setup Menus’ section on page E-28. e settings can also be established automatically using the Arcam Auto Speaker Setup function. However it is important to understand why these speaker settings must be entered, which is why this section is presented rst.
Speaker types
You need to set the type of speakers that you have connected to your Receiver:
Large capable of full frequency range reproduction Small not capable of full frequency range
reproduction at the low frequency end
None speaker not present in your configuration
e terms ‘Large’ and ‘Small’ do not necessarily relate to the physical size of your speakers. As a rule of thumb, if a speaker cannot reproduce a at frequency response down to about 40Hz (and very few can!) it is oen better to consider them as ‘Small’ for setup purposes of home cinema.
When a speaker is set to ‘Small’, very low frequency sounds are redirected away from that speaker to a ‘Large’ speaker or a subwoofer, which are far better suited to reproducing these low frequency sounds.
Note that it is not possible to set all speakers to ‘Small’ unless there is a subwoofer in your speaker conguration. If you do not have a subwoofer, you will be forced to set your front speakers to ‘Large’.
(Advanced users may wish to automatically override the ‘Small’ speaker setting for purely stereo music listening when not watching movies. is can be achieved in the ‘Input Cong.’ menu – see page E-29.
Crossover frequency
If you have set any speakers as being Small, then you will be required to set a value for the crossover frequency. is is the frequency below which signals are ltered away from these Small speakers and redirected to Large speakers or the subwoofer (if present). A frequency of 80Hz is oen a good starting point, however you will probably have to experiment with dierent values to nd the best value for your system or consult your speaker handbook.
Use Channels 6+7 for
If not used in the main zone, it is possible to assign the Surround Back channels to Height 1, bi-amp the Front Le/Right channels or to provide an amplied output to Zone2.
Speaker Distances
It is essential for the distance from each speaker to the listening position to be accurately measured and entered into the ‘Setup’ menu. is ensures that the sounds from the various speakers arrive at the listening position at the correct time to recreate a realistic surround eect. e distance can be entered in centimetres or inches.
Speaker Levels
Finally the levels of all the speakers in the system need to be adjusted to match each other at the listening position, again to create a proper surround eect. To help with this the Receiver can generate a test noise for each speaker which should be measured with a sound pressure level (SPL) meter. e meter should be set to ‘C’ weighting and slow response. Several smartphone/ tablet apps are available which can also perfom this function. e level of noise measured at the listening position from each speaker should be adjusted on the Speaker Trims page of the Setup menu so that the meter reads 75dB SPL. It does not matter what the system volume setting of the Receiver is before turning the test noise on as the volume setting is over-ridden for the duration of the speaker noise test.
ere are several basic SPL meters on the market at reasonable prices aimed at home cinema enthusiasts. Check your local technology store, search online or ask your dealer.
If you do not have an SPL meter or suitable app, you can try to adjust the noise level of each speaker by ear. In this case it is not possible to adjust the speakers to the absolute 75dB SPL volume level, but you should aim for all speakers sounding equally loud. Setting speaker test noise levels by ear is not recommended as it is very dicult to do accurately, but is oen better than doing nothing at all!

auto speaker
setup
Dirac Live for Arcam
ere is a proprietary automatic loudspeaker setup function built into your Receiver from Dirac Reasearch. Using a PC/MAC based application, this attempts to set all the essential speaker settings for all the speakers in your system. It also calculates room equalisation (Room EQ) lter values to remove some of the worst eects of resonant frequencies in the listening room.
Your Receiver package is supplied with a calibration microphone, which should be inserted into the microphone input of the supplied USB sound card and then into a USB socket on a PC or MAC connected to the same network as the Receiver and positioned as directed by the Dirac Live for Arcam PC/MAC application. is microphone picks up the special calibration tones generated by the speakers when Dirac Live for Arcam application is run. e Receiver then analyses the signal and computes:
< speaker type, < speaker distance, < speaker level, < problem resonant frequencies in the room which
need control by ltering.
To help the system be as accurate as possible when performing Dirac Live for Arcam setup, there are a few guidance rules that should be followed:
< Minimise any background sounds in the listening
room and other nearby rooms.
< Close all windows and doors in the listening room. < Turn o all fans including air-conditioning systems. < Mounting the microphone on a tripod or similar. < Position the set up microphone pointing upwards at
roughly head height in the normal listening position. It is not necessary to point the microphone directly at the speaker generating the test tone. (It helps if you are able to position the microphone exactly where your head would normally be for listening, with the microphone in direct unobstructed view of all speakers.)
< If your system includes an active subwoofer, start
by setting its output level / gain control to a value roughly matching the front speakers.
When activated, a calibration tone is played through each channel of the Receiver in turn, including the subwoofer channel. e calibration tone cycles round each of the speakers multiple times as the dierent parameters are calculated. If you do not have a full
7.1 speaker (on the “oor”) conguration there will be periods of silence between some speaker channels. Follow the ‘progress’ information on your PC/MAC.
By default, Room EQ is not applied to any of the source inputs. You should enable Room EQ on inputs
you think benet from this feature, as required, by listening when playing typical source material through each input. Aer being calculated, this is enabled from within the Input Cong menu.
While room equalisation can help to reduce problems with listening room acoustics, it is usually far better to try to solve these problems with the room directly. Proper loudspeaker positioning, acoustic wall treatments and moving the listening position away from walls should produce far better results overall. However it may be dicult to do this in a home environment, so Room EQ is your next best choice.
Problems
We advise you to look over the reported measurements on the screen following Auto Speaker Setup for any obviously incorrect results, in particular to ensure the reported speakers match your conguration and that the speaker distances to the listening position appear look roughly correct. If the results are not what you expected re-run Auto Speaker Setup.
e Auto Speaker Setup function is normally quite accurate but occasionally false results can be generated. Problems may be as a result of:
< external sounds or rumbling/handling noises picked
up by the microphone
< sound reections o hard surfaces (e.g. windows or
walls) close to the listening position,
< very strong acoustic resonances within the room, < obstacles (such as a sofa) between speakers and the
microphone.
If you are still experiencing diculties or you wish to have the most accurate results for ultimate surround performance, we recommend using the manual method of establishing speaker distances and levels.
Using subwoofers
If your system includes one or two active subwoofers you may need to set the subwoofer output level/gain control set to a higher or lower value.
Please refer to the Dirac application and quick start guide for full details of how to use the system with your Receiver.

SETUP MENU
e Setup menus allow you to congure all aspects of your Receiver. e next few pages will go through the menu items and explain their function. e Setup menus will probably look quite daunting if you are new to setting up home cinema, but the majority of them need only be congured once when you rst install the system (or if your system changes or you move house!)
e only way to view the Setup menus is on your display device (TV or projector) using the on-screen display (OSD) capability of the Receiver. To view the OSD for the initial setting up, connect any of the video outputs to your display device. You do not need to have a video source connected to the Receiver video inputs.
