Speaker/Channel Input Indicators: These
indicators are multipurpose, indicating either the
speaker type selected for each channel or the
incoming data-signal configuration.The left, center,
right, right surround and left surround speaker
indicators are composed of three boxes, while the
subwoofer is a single box. The center box lights
when a “Small” speaker is selected, and the two
outer boxes light when “Large” speakers are
selected. When none of the boxes are lit for the
center, surround or subwoofer channels, no speaker
has been selected for that position. (See page 23
for more information on configuring speakers.) The
letters inside each of the center boxes display
active input channels. For standard analog inputs,
only the L and R will light, indicating a stereo
input. When a digital source is playing, the indicators will light to display the channels begin
received at the digital input. When the letters
flash, the digital input has been interrupted. (See

ensure proper operation of the unit and to avoid
possible damage to delicate surfaces, make
certain that these holes are not blocked and that
there is at least three inches of open space
between the vent holes and any wooden or
fabric surface.
8-Channel Direct Inputs: These jacks are
used for connection to source devices such as
DVD-Audio or SACD players with discrete analog
outputs. Depending on the source device in use,
all eight jacks may be used, though in many
cases only connections to the front left/right,
center, surround left/right and LFE (subwoofer

black (–) terminals on the AVR to the black (–)
terminals on the speakers. See page 13 for more
information on speaker polarity.
Center Speaker Outputs: Connect these
outputs to the matching + and – terminals on
your center channel speaker. In conformance
with the new CEA color code specification, the
Green Terminal is the positive, or "+" terminal
that should be connected to the red (+) terminal
on speakers with the older color coding. Connect
the black (–) terminal on the AVR to the black
negative (–) terminal on your speaker. (See page
13 for more information on speaker polarity.)
Surround Speaker Outputs: Connect
these outputs to the matching + and – terminals
on your surround channel speakers. In conformance with the new CEA color code specification, the Blue terminal is the positive, or "+"
terminal that should be connected to the red (+)

Video 2 Component Video Inputs:
Connect the Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs of
an HDTV Set-top convertor, satellite receiver, or
other video source device with component video
outputs to these jacks.
Monitor Component Video Outputs:
Connect these outputs to the component video
inputs of a video projector or monitor. When a
source connected to one of the two
Component Video Inputs
the signal will be sent to these jacks.
DVD Component Video Inputs: Connect
the Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs of a DVD
player to these jacks.
Note: All component inputs/outputs can be
used for RGB signals too, in the same way as
described for the Y/Pr/Pb signals, then connected
to the jacks with the corresponding color.
RGB connection is not possible if the source outputs a separate sync signal (see page 14).
Remote IR Output: This connection permits
the IR sensor in the receiver to serve other
remote controlled devices. Connect this jack to
the “IR IN” jack on Harman Kardon or other
compatible equipment.
Remote IR Input: If the AVR’s front-panel
IR sensor is blocked due to cabinet doors or
other obstructions, an external IR sensor may
be used. Connect the output of the sensor to
this jack.
Multiroom IR Input: Connect the output of
an IR sensor in a remote room to this jack to
operate the AVR’s multiroom control system.

an optional, external power amplifier for applications where higher power is desired.
Surround Back/Multiroom Speaker
Outputs: These speaker terminals are normally
used to power the surround back left/surround
back right speakers in a 7.1 channel system.
However, they may also be used to power the
speakers in a second zone, which will receive the
output selected for a multiroom system.
To change the output fed to these terminals
from the default of the Surround Back speakers
to the Multiroom Output, you must change a
setting in the
OSD system. See page 39 for more information
on configuring this speaker output. In normal
surround system use, the brown and black terminals are the surround back left channel positive
(+) and negative (–) connections and the tan
and black terminals are the surround back right
positive (+) and negative (–) terminals.
For multiroom use, connect the brown and black
SBL terminals to the red and black connections
on the left remote zone speaker and connect the
tan and black SBR terminals to the red and black
terminals on the right remote zone speaker.
