You can connect up to six HDMI-compatible devices (5-inputs/1-output) to the unit.
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 required 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, which tend to be complicated, to be more easily organized.
•Mutual control through the HDMI control function (vpage 78)
This unit and the HDMI device connected via HDMI can be linked to perform operations such as power control, volume control, and input source switching.
•Other video and audio functions, such as 3D video playback, Content Type, the ARC function, are supported (vpage 11).
•There is more than one version of the HDMI standard. The supported functions and the performance vary according to the version. This unit complies with the HDMI standard that supports the ARC and 3D playback functions. To enjoy these functions, the HDMI device connected to this unit also needs to use the same version of the standard. For the version of the HDMI standard on the device connected to this unit, see the device’s manual.
•Some TVs do not support audio input via HDMI connections. For details, see your TV’s manual.

nnAbout ARC (Audio Return Channel) function
This function plays TV audio on this unit by sending the TV audio signal to this unit via the 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.
When the ARC function is used, connect a device with a “Standard HDMI cable with Ethernet” or “High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet” for HDMI.
Refer to the owner’s manual for your TV for details about TV connection and settings.

Changing the source assigned to connectors
This unit can change the source that is assigned to the HDMI IN, DIGITAL AUDIO IN, VIDEO IN and AUDIO IN connectors.
Let us take a digital audio connection for Blu-ray Disc players for an example. The rear panel digital audio input connectors do not have the input connector indication for Blu-ray disc players (Blu-ray). However, DIGITAL AUDIO IN connectors have the “ASSIGNABLE” indication, which means that you can change the source assigned to these connectors. You can assign Blu-ray disc players to these connectors to use them for Blu-ray disc players. Select “Blu-ray” when switching functions on this unit to play back the source connected to these connectors.

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.

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 and measurement microphone in multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results, we recommend you measure in six positions, as shown in the illustration (up to six positions).
•When performing Audyssey® Setup, Audyssey MultEQ®/ Audyssey Dynamic EQ®/Audyssey Dynamic Volume® functions become active (vpage 89, 90).
•To set up the speakers manually, use “Speakers” (vpage 98) 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 and measurement microphone from the main unit until Audyssey® Setup is completed.
•Do not stand between the speakers and Setup and measurement microphone or allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. This will cause inaccurate readings.
•During the measurement process, audible test tones will come from the speakers and subwoofer(s), but this is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in the room, these test signals will
increase in volume.
•Operating VOLUME df on the remote control unit or MASTER VOLUME on main unit during the measurements cancel the measurements.
•Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are connected. Unplug headphones before performing Audyssey Setup.
About Setup and measurement microphone placement
•Measurements are performed by placing the Setup and measurement microphone successively at multiple positions throughout the entire listening area, as shown in GExample qH. For best results, we recommend you measure in six positions, as shown in the illustration (up to six 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 and measurement microphone in the main listening position. Audyssey MultEQ® uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.
