Make Settings as Necessary
•If you do not want this unit to convert video signals automatically,
use the following setting item to disable this function.
“Video Conversion” (vpage131)
•If you want to change the resolution of video signals output to
the TV, use the following setting item to do so.
“Resolution” (vpage132)
•The video conversion function supports the NTSC, PAL, SECAM,
NTSC 4.43, PAL-N, PAL-M and PAL-60 formats.
•Resolutions of HDMI-compatible TVs can be checked at “Video” –
“HDMI Monitor 1” or “HDMI Monitor 2” (vpage153).
NOTE
•While signals are being upscaled to 4K, the menu screen is only
displayed on a TV that is connected to this unit via HDMI.
•When a non-standard video signal from a game machine or some
other source is input, the video conversion function might not
operate.
Component video
connectors
Video signal Video signal
Video connector
For example, when an HDMI-compatible TV is connected to this unit with an HDMI cable, input signals other than HDMI video signals are
automatically converted to HDMI signals that are then output from the HDMI connector to the TV. Only one type of video signals is output, so
video signals output from this unit to the TV do not change even when the source for playback is switched to a device that outputs video signals
in a different format, which allows you to continue with playback without the need to switch the video input source on the TV. Furthermore,
the video quality improves because analog video signals such as video and component video signals that are input to this unit are converted to
digital HDMI video signals with a higher resolution for output. When a TV does not support the HDMI connection, make an analog connection
between this unit and the TV for video signals. This unit cannot convert HDMI input signals to analog video signals, so when signals are input
from an HDMI device, use the component video input connector or video input connector. In this case, the component video signals that are
input to this unit are converted to video signals.

Informations
Basic version
DVD
You can connect up to ten HDMI-compatible devices (7-inputs/3-outputs) to the unit.
When a TV is connected to the HDMI ZONE4 OUT connector, you can play back a video or audio from the
device connected to the HDMI 1 – 6 IN connector in ZONE4 (vpage111).
If the device connected to this unit is equipped with an HDMI connector, it is recommended to use HDMI
connections. Connections with an HDMI cable offer the following benefits that can not be achieved with
other connection methods.
•High quality playback by transmitting audio and video via digital signals
HDMI connections can transmit high definition video and high quality audio formats adopted by Bluray disc players (Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, dts-HD, dts-HD Master Audio).
HDMI connections also convey information required for playback between devices. The information
is used for copyright protection and TV resolution recognition, the ARC function, the HDMI control
function, etc.
•Transmission of audio and video signals with a single HDMI cable
Previous connections require multiple audio and video cables, but HDMI connections require only a
single HDMI cable to transmit audio and video signals. This allows wires in a home theater system,

n About ARC (Audio Return Channel) function
This function plays TV audio on this unit by sending the TV audio signal to this unit via HDMI cable.
If a TV without the ARC function is connected via HDMI connections, video signals of the playback
device connected to this unit are transmitted to the TV, but this unit can not play back the audio from
the TV. If you want to enjoy surround audio for TV program, a separate audio cable connection is
required.
In contrast, if a TV with the ARC function is connected via HDMI connections, no audio cable connection
is required. Audio signals from the TV can be input to this unit through the HDMI cable between this
unit and the TV. This function allows you to enjoy surround playback on this unit for the TV.

•The audio signal from the HDMI output connector (sampling frequency, number of channels, etc.) may be
limited by the HDMI audio specifications of the connected device regarding permissible inputs.
•When connecting a TV that does not support the ARC function, an audio cable connection is
required in addition to the HDMI cable. In this case, refer to “Connecting a TV” (vpage16) for
the connection method.
For the ARC function, see “About ARC (Audio Return Channel) function” (vpage10).
Connecting to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector
The DVI-D (Digital Visual Interface) method is also used for video transmission via digital signals. This is
developed mainly for computers, and some AV devices such as projectors are equipped with this interface.
To output HDMI video signals to a DVI-D video input compatible device, use an HDMI/DVI conversion
cable, which converts HDMI video signals to DVI signals.
The DVI-D connector can transmit high quality digital signals, but the copy guard and other issues may
hinder normal operations for some device combinations.
NOTE
•No sound is output when connected to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector. Make audio
connections as described in “Connecting a TV” (vpage16).
•Signals cannot be output to DVI-D devices that do not support HDCP.
•Depending on the combination of devices, the video signals may not be output.
Settings required when using a TV that supports the ARC function
When using a TV that supports the ARC function, make the following settings.
•Set “HDMI Control” (vpage130) to “On”.
•Set “Control Monitor” (vpage130) to match the number of the HDMI MONITOR connector connected
to the TV that supports the ARC function.
NOTE
If the TV that supports the ARC function is connected to both HDMI MONITOR 1 and HDMI MONITOR 2
connectors, you cannot use ARC function at the same time.
•Video signals are not output if the input video signals do not match the monitor’s resolution. In this case,
switch the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player’s resolution to a resolution with which the monitor is compatible.
•When this unit and monitor are connected with an HDMI cable, if the monitor is not compatible with
HDMI audio signal playback, only the video signals are output to the monitor. Make audio connections
(vpage16 “Connecting a TV”).

Here, we explain “Audyssey® Setup”, which allows you to
automatically make the optimal settings for your speakers, and
“Network”, which allows you to connect this unit to a home network
(LAN).
This unit lets you play via your home network (LAN) music files stored
on a computer and music content such as that from Internet Radio.

Set up speakers (Audyssey® Setup)
The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and
listening room are measured and the optimum settings are made
automatically. This is called “Audyssey® Setup”.
To perform measurement, place the setup microphone in
multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results,
we recommend you measure in six or more positions, as shown
in the illustration (up to eight positions).
•When performing Audyssey® Setup, Audyssey MultEQ® XT 32/
Audyssey Dynamic EQ®/Audyssey Dynamic Volume® functions
become active (vpage125, 126).
•To set up the speakers manually, use “Speakers” (vpage139)
on the menu.
NOTE
•Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt
the room measurements. Close windows and turn off the power on
electronic devices (TVs, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights,
etc.). The measurements could be affected by the sounds emitted
by such devices.
•During the measurement process, place cell phones outside the
listening room. Cell phone signals could disrupt the measurements.
•Do not unplug the setup microphone from the main unit until
Audyssey® Setup is completed.
•Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow
obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. This
will cause inaccurate readings.
•During the measurement process, loud test sounds may be played,
but this is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in
room, these test signals will increase in volume.
•Operating
control unit or MASTER VOLUME on the
main unit during the measurements will
cancel the measurements.
•Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are
connected. Unplug the headphones before performing Audyssey®
Setup.

About setup microphone placement
•Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphone
successively at multiple positions throughout the entire listening
area, as shown in GExample qH. For best results, we recommend
you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the illustration (up
to eight positions).
•Even if the listening environment is small as shown in GExample wH,
measuring at multiple points throughout the listening environment
results in more effective correction.

About the main listening position (*M)
The main listening position is the position where listeners would
normally sit or where one would normally sit alone within the listening
environment. Before starting Audyssey® Setup, place the setup
microphone in the main listening position. Audyssey MultEQ® XT
32 uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker
distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the
subwoofer.

Important information
n Using the HDRadio™ receiver
HDRadio stations offer higher sound quality than conventional FM/ AM broadcasts. It is also possible to
receive data services and select broadcasts from among up to eight multicast programs.
HDRadio Technology provides higher quality sound than conventional broadcasts and allows reception
of data services.
•Digital, CD-quality sound. HDRadio Technology enables local radio stations to broadcast a clean digital
signal. AM sounds like today’s FM and FM sounds like a CD.
•Program Service Data: Contributes to the superior user experience of HDRadio Technology. Presents
song name, artist, station IDs, and other relevant data streams.
•Adjacent to traditional main stations are extra local FM channels. These HD2/HD3 Channels provide
new, original music as well as deep cuts into traditional genre.
How to tune in
The modes for receiving FM broadcasts consists of “Auto” mode that automatically searches available
broadcast stations and “Manual” mode that lets you tune in using buttons to change the frequency. The
default setting is “Auto”. You can also use “Direct Tune” to tune in by entering the frequency directly.
In “Auto” mode, you cannot tune in to radio stations if the reception is not good. If this is the case, then
use the “Manual” mode or “Direct Tune” to tune in.

Here, we connect the speakers in the room to this unit.
This section explains how to connect them using a typical example.
n Normal connection (vpage94)
n Bi-amp connection (vpage95)
n Multi-channel + 2-channel connection (vpage96)
n 11.1-channel connection (vpage97)
n External power amplifier connection (vpage98)
NOTE
•Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the speakers. Also,
turn off the subwoofer.
•Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker terminal. The
protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides
touch each other (vpage195 “Protection Circuit”).
•Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is connected. Doing so could result
in electric shock. When the “Setup Assistant” is running, follow the instructions in the “Setup
Assistant” screen for making connections. (Power is not supplied to the speaker terminals while
the “Setup Assistant” is running.)
•Use speakers with the speaker impedances shown below.

Connecting the speaker cables
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and – (black) polarities on the speakers being
connected to this unit, and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.
Peel off about 0.03 ft/10 mm of sheathing from the tip of the
1
speaker cable, then either twist the core wire tightly or terminate
it.
Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwise to loosen it.

Connecting the subwoofer
Use a subwoofer cable to connect the subwoofer.
•Use speakers where one speaker has an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω. When using a speaker with impedance
of 4 Ω or 6 Ω, make sure to set the “Impedance” in the menu (vpage145) to “6 Ω/ohms” or “4 Ω/
ohms”.
•On this unit, you can change how the power amplifiers within this unit are used according to your
environment. For details see “Relationship between the Amp Assign mode settings and audio output”
(vpage177).

The diagram on the right shows a typical connection method.
Connect your speakers so that they correspond to the speaker names
indicated on the rear panel.
•If you connect the surround back, front height, and front wide
speakers before you start playback, the audio is played back by
automatically switching the speakers in accordance with the
surround mode or input signals.
•If using only one surround back speaker, connect to the “L” side
of the SURROUND BACK terminal. Also use the “Speaker Config.”
setting (vpage142) to set “Surr.Back” to “1spkr”.
For speaker settings in this case, see “When 6.1ch speakers are
installed” (vpage92).
NOTE
•For speaker cable connections, see page93.
•For speaker impedance , see page93.
n For connecting two subwoofers
Two subwoofers can be connected to this unit.
To use two subwoofers, set “Subwoofer” to “2 spkrs” using the
“Speaker Config.” setting (vpage142).
The level and distance can be set separately for Subwoofer 1 and
Subwoofer 2.

Bi-amp connection
Basic version
Advanced version
Informations

DVD
A bi-amp connection is to connect separate amplifiers to the tweeter terminals and woofer terminals of
speakers compatible with the bi-amp function. This prevents the back electromotive force (returned force
without output) of the woofer sent to the tweeter, which affects the sound quality of the tweeter, and you
can enjoy playback with higher-quality sound.
In this case, set “Assign Mode” to “7.1ch(Bi-Amp)” or “5.1ch(Bi-Amp) + ZONE2” in steps 3 to 5 for “Set
up “Amp Assign”” (vpage99).
NOTE
•For speaker cable connections, see page93.
•For speaker impedance , see page93.
•When making bi-amp connections, be sure to remove the short-circuiting plate or wire between the
speaker’s woofer and tweeter terminals.
When using a front wide speaker, you can use the connectors on the part in the connection
diagram to make a bi-amplifier connection. To make connections for these connectors, set
“Main Speakers” (vpage100).

You can connect the other front speakers for 2-channel playback using
the DIRECT mode or STEREO mode.
The speakers used exclusively for multichannel playback and the speakers
used exclusively for 2-channel playback are automatically switched for
playback in accordance with the surround mode.
In this case, set “Assign Mode” to “9.1ch/2ch Front” in steps 3 to 5 for
“Set up “Amp Assign”” (vpage99).
Front speakers can be used separately, depending on the speaker’s
specifications or playback source such as front speakers (FL/FR) for
multichannel playback and front speakers (FL’/FR’) for 2-channel playback
(vpage145 “Front Speaker”).
