1. The mains plug contains a fuse. For replacement, use
only a 13-Amp ASTA-approved (BS1362) fuse.
2. The fuse cover must be refitted when replacing the
fuse in the moulded plug.
3. Do not cut off the mains plug from this equipment.
If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points
in your home or the cable is too short to reach a
power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adapter, or consult your
dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the
fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a
possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to
the mains supply.
IMPORTANT : The wires in the mains lead are coloured
in accordance with the following code:
Blue : Neutral

Chapter One: Connecting Your Devices
Welcome to the Kenwood KRF-X9995D Connection and
Setup Guide. This chapter guides you through connecting
your home entertainment devices to your new Kenwood
audio-video receiver.
Once all your devices are connected, you can set up the
PowerTouch (see Chapter Two).
Refer to the following pages for details on connecting these
devices:

All necessary cables should be provided with your home
entertainment device (not with your new receiver). If you
do not have the correct cables, you may purchase these
cables from any home entertainment store.
To make coaxial digital connections, be sure to use a highquality digital audio cable, not a standard audio cable.
Do not plug in the receiver or any other device to AC power
until all connections have been made. Once all devices have
been connected, you may plug them in and provide power.
Important:
Be sure to adhere followings, or proper ventilation will be
blocked causing damage or fire hazard.
Do not place any objects impairing heat radiation onto the
top of unit.
Leave a space around the unit (from the largest outside dimension including projection) equal or greater than, shown
below.
Top panel : 50 cm Side panel : 10 cm Back panel : 10 cm
Do not install your receiver where direct sunlight or high frequency fluorescent lighting can shine directly into the remote
sensor. This can cause your new receiver to malfunction.
Before You Begin
This manual covers the most common and standard connections to the receiver. Because of its versatility, you may
decide to connect your devices differently.
Video Connections
This receiver incorporates Kenwood's exclusive Universal
Video HD, which converts between composite, S-Video and
component video formats. This simplifies operation, and
maintains the highest possible video quality while requiring only a single connection between the receiver and your
TV. Video format conversion is performed according to the
following chart:
Video input signal type Appears at these video outputs
1 Composite Video Composite
2 S-Video Composite
3 Component Video Component Video
S-Video
Component Video
S-Video
Component Video
• Component video connections provide the best video
quality; S-Video connections provide video quality that
is superior to standard composite video connections.
We recommend using the highest quality connection
possible between the receiver and your TV.
• Since component video inputs are not downconverted
to S-Video or composite video, if you want to record
components connected via component video inputs you
must also connect that component's S-Video or composite video outputs to the receiver.
• If you plan on using the KRF-X9995D in a Dual-Zone
application (see Chapter Four), you must use the composite video connections in addition to any component
video and S-Video connections for all source components. Only video sources connected to the receiver with
composite video connections can be viewed in the second zone.

If several video connections are made, one of them will be
selected based on the priority 3, 2, and 1.

Connecting Your Speakers, continued
Do not plug in the receiver to AC power until all connec-
tions have been made.
To Connect Front Speakers Only:
If you only intend to listen to stereo sound (as opposed to
surround sound), you may simply connect a single pair of
speakers. To do so:
Using Banana Plugs (except for U.K.):
1. Tighten the speaker wire binding posts. If you do not
tighten the posts, they will not conduct sound properly
to the speakers.
2. Insert the plug from the positive jack on the RIGHT
FRONT speaker into the pin jack on the positive RIGHT
FRONT post. Repeat for the negative plug.
3. Repeat step 2 for the positive and negative wires on the
LEFT FRONT speaker.
Using Bare Wires:
1. Loosen the speaker wire binding posts.
2. Insert the wire from the positive jack on the RIGHT
FRONT speaker into the U-shaped slot in the base of
the positive RIGHT FRONT post. Lay the wire to the
right of the post; that way, when you tighten the binding post, it will naturally twist the wire into the best
connection. Tighten the post. Repeat for the negative wire
on the RIGHT FRONT speaker as shown to the right.
3. Repeat step 2 for the positive and negative wires on the
LEFT FRONT speaker.
To Connect Front and Surround Sound
Speakers:
To listen to the full surround sound that this receiver can
put out, connect front speakers, center, left surround, and
right surround speakers. To do so:
To reproduce more enriched bass, connect a subwoofer
incorporating a power amplifier.
For the connections of the subwoofer and surround back
speakers, see page 6 to 7.
Using Banana Plugs (except for U.K.):
1. Tighten the speaker wire binding posts. If you do not
tighten the posts, they will not conduct sound properly
to the speakers.
2. Follow the steps under “To Connect Front Speakers
Only” on this page to connect the RIGHT and LEFT
FRONT speakers.
3. Insert the plug from the positive jack on the CENTER
speaker into the pin jack on the positive CENTER post.
Repeat for the negative plug.
4. Insert the plug from the positive jack on the RIGHT
SURROUND speaker into the pin jack on the positive
RIGHT SURROUND post. Repeat for the negative plug.
5. Repeat step 4 for the positive and negative wires on the
LEFT SURROUND speaker.
Using Bare Wires:
1. Loosen the speaker wire binding posts.
2. Follow the steps under “To Connect Front Speakers
Only” on this page to connect the RIGHT and LEFT
FRONT speakers.
3. Insert the wire from the positive jack on the CENTER
speaker into the U-shaped slot in the base of the positive
CENTER post as shown to the right.
Tighten the post. Repeat for the negative wire.
4. Insert the wire from the positive jack on the RIGHT SUR-
ROUND speaker into the U-shaped slot on the base of
the positive RIGHT SURROUND post. Tighten the post.
Repeat for the negative wire.
5. Repeat step 4 for the positive and negative wires on the
LEFT SURROUND speaker.
Never short circuit the + and - speaker wires.
Do not switch the left and right speaker wires or swap the +
and - wires on the binding posts.
The speakers must have a nominal impedance of between
6Ω and 16Ω.

Connecting Your TV, continued
Do not plug in the receiver or devices to AC power until
you have connected all your devices.
This section focuses on the connections from your TV to
the KRF-X9995D. Please refer to your TV’s instructions for
more detail about its connection jacks and capabilities.
The instructions in this section show how to connect your
TV as a monitor for the other video devices you connect
(without using it as an audio/video source device itself). To
use your TV as an audio/video source device, you must first
connect it as described in this section, and also connect its
audio/video output jacks as if they were cable TV tuner outputs, as described in “To Connect a Cable TV Tuner with a
Composite (RCA) Video Output” on page 13.
To Connect a TV:
1. Review the information under “Before You Begin” on
page 1. It contains important notes about the types of
video connections you can make.
2. Connect a video cable from your TV’s Video IN jack to
the receiver’s MONITOR OUT jack as shown to the left.
3. If your TV has the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks, you can
also connect it as shown on the left.
4. If your TV does not have any video input connections,
you must purchase an RF modulator. The modulator
will convert the video signal from the receiver to an RF
signal that will work with the TV’s antenna connections.
Connect the receiver to the TV according to the RF
modulator’s instruction manual.
5. Go to “Noting Your Devices” on page 3 and note which
jack you used to connect your TV. In addition, note the
brand name and model number of the TV.
If you previously connected your TV directly to your VCR,
you must now connect it through your new receiver.
With some devices, the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks (Y, PB/
CB, PR/CR jacks) are indicated as the R-Y, B-Y jacks. For
details, refer to the operation instructions for the respective
device.
What if I Want to Watch TV without Turning on the Receiver?
The connection described here sets your TV up as a monitor
you can use to view media played on your other video devices (such as a VCR or DVD player). You can still watch TV
without having to use the receiver.

Connecting Your Cable TV or Satellite Tuner, continued
Do not plug in the receiver or devices to AC power until
you have connected all your devices.
This section focuses on the connections from your cable or
satellite tuner to the KRF-X9995D. Please refer to your
tuner’s instructions for more detail about its connection
jacks and capabilities.
The instructions in this section show one of several possible variations on connecting your tuner. For further assistance on optional configurations, contact your cable or satellite provider.
To Connect a Cable TV Tuner with a Composite (RCA) Video Output:
1. Review the information under “Before You Begin” on
page 1. It contains important notes about the types of
video connections you can make.
2. Connect the audio and video cables from the cable
tuner’s Audio and Video OUT jacks to the receiver’s
VIDEO2, VIDEO3, or VIDEO4 PLAY IN jacks as shown
to the left.
When the component video cables are connected, the
audio and video cables of the cable TV tuner should be
connected to the VIDEO3 jacks of the receiver.
3. If your cable TV tuner and TV have the COMPONENT
VIDEO jacks, you can also connect them as shown on the
left.
4. Go to “Noting Your Devices” on page 3 and note which
jack you used to connect your tuner. In addition, note
the brand name and model number of the tuner.
To Connect a Cable TV Tuner without a Composite (RCA) Video Output:
1. Connect the audio cables from the cable tuner’s Audio
Out jacks to the receiver’s VIDEO2, VIDEO3, or VIDEO4
PLAY IN jacks as shown to the left.
2. Leave the cable tuner’s video out (RF jack) connected
directly to your VCR or TV (wherever you already have
it connected).
3. Go to “Noting Your Devices” on page 3 and note which
jack you used to connect your tuner. In addition, note
the brand name and model number of the tuner.
To Connect a Satellite Tuner:

coaxial connection and one for optical connection. Your
satellite tuner supports one or the other of these connection methods—do not connect both.
3. Connect the audio and video cables from the satellite
tuner’s Audio and Video out jacks to the receiver’s
VIDEO2, VIDEO3, or VIDEO4 PLAY IN jacks as shown
to the left.
Note that the jack sets are linked, even though they are
not adjacent. You must connect all of the cables from
your satellite tuner to a linked jack set. For example, if
you connect the analog cables to VIDEO2 and the digital optical cable to VIDEO3, your satellite tuner will
not work correctly.
When the component video cables are connected, the
audio and video cables of the satellite tuner should be
connected to the VIDEO3 jacks of the receiver.
4. If your satellite tuner and TV have the COMPONENT
VIDEO jacks, you can also connect them as shown on the
left.
5. Go to “Noting Your Devices” on page 3 and note which
jack you used to connect your tuner. In addition, note
the brand name and model number of the tuner.

DTS disclaimer clause
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot be decoded and played back inside most CD, LD,
or DVD players. For this reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited. To avoid possible
damage to the audio system, proper precautions should taken by the consumer if the analog outputs are connected directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™
playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output (S/PDIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.
This unit is equipped with DTS Digital Surround™ decoder.

Chapter Two : Setting Up PowerTouch
Chapter Two: Setting Up PowerTouch
Your new PowerTouch controls your new receiver and can
be set up to control most components attached to it.
PowerTouch appears and functions a little differently from
traditional remotes. It incorporates sophisticated engineering and design to allow you to simply touch the screen to
press buttons and operate controls. You can touch the screen
with your finger or with the stylus stored at the top of the
PowerTouch.
Remote Setup
Before you can set up any PowerTouch item, you need to
install batteries.
• The batteries that came with your new PowerTouch are
34
intended for you to use for an operation check—they
may not last as long as ordinary batteries. We recommend replacing them with alkaline batteries for normal use.
To install the batteries:
1. Press down and back on the battery cover to remove it.
Because it can control so many different devices, it presents
a separate set of controls for each device on an LCD screen.
Touch an icon on the screen to access further menus or controls for devices.
Only devices previously identified and connected to the
receiver will appear as icons on the display screen. If you
are “missing” an icon on your display screen, make sure
you have identified the device to PowerTouch. This chapter
describes identifying devices to PowerTouch.
Installing the Batteries
2. Insert six AA (LR6) batteries as shown:
This chapter contains the following sections:
Installing the Batteries page 34
Calibrating the Touch Screen page 35
Selecting the Model Type page 35
Navigating PowerTouch Interface page 36
Setting Up Speakers page 37
Identifying Devices For PowerTouch Control page 40
Storing Radio Stations in Memory page 41
If you cannot see anything on the screen after replacing
batteries, try to adjust the screen contrast. See 74 page of
the Users’ Guide.
(for U.K. only)
If you are installing the receiver in a home entertainment
closet, a simpler installation option is to use the External
Infrared Receiver. For more information, see “Connecting
the External Infrared Receivers (for U.K. only)” on page 51.
3. Close the cover.
If you use PowerTouch outside of it’s range (see “How is
PowerTouch Powered?” on page 5 of the Users’ Guide)
PowerTouch’s display may show incorrect information.
When your batteries begin to run low, PowerTouch displays
a Low Battery message. Clear the message by touching check
mark icon (
Maximize the life of your batteries by turning the Backlight
off if you are not trying to use PowerTouch in the dark. For
more information on the Backlight, see page 73 of the Us-
ers’ Guide.
) and replace all batteries as described here.
Page 41
Chapter Two : Setting Up PowerTouch
Calibrating the Touch Screen
After you install the batteries or reset PowerTouch, you need
to calibrate the touch screen. The touch screen responds to
pressure from the included stylus or your finger:
If you are replacing batteries and complete the battery replacement within 3 minutes, you do not need to calibrate
the screen; calibration is stored in memory.
If the screen’s performance begins to change, you can
recalibrate it without resetting PowerTouch by pressing
on the Setup Preference menu. For more information about accessing this menu, see “Identifying Devices
For PowerTouch Control” on page 40.
After “Calibrating the Touch Screen”, the “Selecting the Model
Type” display appears automatically (Except for U.K.).
The model type selection is performed to let the PowerTouch
recognize the type of the receiver.
Once the model type is selected, it does not have to be selected again even after PowerTouch is reset.
To calibrate the touch screen, use the stylus to touch the center of each of the calibration points displayed:
When you touch each calibration point, you should hear a
beep and see the next point, indicating that area of the screen
is now calibrated. If you do not hear a beep, touch the calibration point until you do.
The touch screen is sensitive to pressure, not to movement.
Press firmly but gently on any touch screen element. The screen
will not respond if you simply brush the stylus or your finger
along the surface.
Selecting the Model Type
To set the model type:
1. Press the receiver’s ON STANDBY button to turn it ON.
2. Aim the PowerTouch towards the receiver and press the
in the display.
3. The receiver automatically transmits its type code to
PowerTouch. When the PowerTouch stores it, the model
type selection is complete.
Now the new PowerTouch is available for operation.
• If the model type cannot be selected automatically because the receiver is not ON, etc., the model type can be
selected manually. In this case, select the “Model 2” in
step 2 above.
Resetting PowerTouch
If you want to reconfigure PowerTouch, you can reset it.
You do not need to do this unless you experience a problem.
1. Open the cover.
2. Use the stylus to press the blue button at the bottom of
the battery case:
RESET
The items you set up in this chapter will remain in
PowerTouch. If you want to make it to the factory–set default condition, please follow the instructions on page 104
of the Users’ Guide.
If you committed mistake in the model type selection, restart it as follows.
• While holding the CONFIRM and VOLUME DOWN
buttons together, press and release the RESET button
under the battery cover (see above diagram). Do not
release the CONFIRM and VOLUME DOWN buttons
until a short beep indicating the completion of setting
is heard.
After the above, all settings are reset to the factory settings.

Setting Up Speakers
Before you can begin using the receiver to control your home
entertainment system, you must set up PowerTouch to operate your speakers effectively. There are four areas of speaker
setup:
• SP Selection
• SP Distance
• SP Level
• Bass Peak Level
You can set up your speakers in the order presented here
(via the Next button) or individually, selecting each option
from the Surround menu.
The receiver must be on, speakers must be connected, and
Speaker A on the front panel must be turned on before you
can set up speakers.
Speaker Placement
An example of installation is shown here.
Use this figure as a reference for installing the system according to the types of your speakers and conditions of your
listening room.

SW
SL SR
SBL SBR
FL/FR (Front speakers) : Place to the front left and right
of the listening position. Front speakers are required for all
surround modes.
C (Center speaker) : Place front and center. This speaker
stabilizes the sound image and helps recreate sound motion.
SW (Subwoofer) : Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.
SL/SR (Surround speakers) : Place to the direct left and
right, or slightly behind, the listening position at even
heights, approximately 1 meter above the ears of the listeners.
SBL/SBR (Surround back speakers) : The SBL/SBR speakers are required to reproduce the 6.1-channel signals. Place
them on the left and right behind the listening position and
at a height slightly higher than the SL/SR speakers.
To begin setting up speakers:
1. Touch

Quick Setup: Use this method for a simplified setup
where you identify whether a speaker is present and let
the receiver automatically determine the appropriate
speaker settings.
1 Aim PowerTouch at the receiver. If the speaker is
present, touch the speaker button until “Yes” appears
in the button. (SW=subwoofer, C=center,
SL=surround left, SR=surround right, SBL=surround
back left and SBR=surround back right)
If you selected Yes for the subwoofer, all of the bass
below 80Hz is removed from other speakers in your
system and is sent to the subwoofer in all listening
modes. This improves your speakers’ power handling
and reduces overall distortion.

right buttons are linked; if you touch one, you change
the settings for both.
• Off means you are not using the speaker. (Not avail-
able for front speakers). If no subwoofer is connected,
all bass below 80Hz is sent to front left and right
speakers.
• On means that you are using the speaker. (Only avail-
able for subwoofer).
• Select Nml (= Normal/THX) if the speaker is not ca-
pable of producing clean, deep bass energy at output
levels that match those produced by a typical powered
subwoofer. All bass below 80Hz in that channel is removed from that speaker and is sent to the subwoofer
(or sent to the front speakers if subwoofer is set to off)
in all listening modes. Most speakers should be considered Nml. If no subwoofer is connected, that signal is
sent to front left and right speakers.
• Select Lrg (= Large) if the speaker is capable of producing clean, deep bass energy at output levels that
match those produced by a typical powered
subwoofer. All bass below 80Hz in that channel is
left in that speaker in all listening modes.
The subwoofer may not output audio depending on
the setups of the input signal, speakers and listen mode.

and want to send bass to the subwoofer in all Listen
modes, touch
until “On” appears above the

SP Level
In this step you will use your ears to balance the volume level
of all the system’s speakers except the subwoofer for your room
and listening position. (To set the subwoofer level, see “Setting the Subwoofer Level” on this page.) When all the speakers are set at the same volume level, your system will create a
more realistic, spacious surround sound environment.
It is recommended to use a SPL meter to adjust the speaker
levels accurately. (See “To obtain accurate output levels” on
this page)
When setting the speaker levels, be careful against the
high-level test tone that is produced.
1. Eliminate as many external noise sources as possible.
2. Sit in the place where you and your guests are most likely
to sit while watching movies or listening to music.
3. If you are not already there, touch

8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 until all the system’s speakers (except
the subwoofer) play at the same volume.
9. To confirm the volume levels, touch
Tone display reads “Auto”. The test noise will automati-
cally cycle between all of the speakers. Fine-tune the channel levels as necessary.
10. When all the channels sound like they’re the same volume, you’ve balanced your system.
11. To turn off the test noise, touch
display reads “Off”.
Setting the Subwoofer Level: Because of the way humans hear, the test noise the Speaker Level menu sends
through the subwoofer will not sound as loud as it really is. (The Speaker Level menu subwoofer test noise is
designed to be used with a sound pressure level meter
for balancing.)
Because of this, you cannot use that test noise to properly calibrate the level of your subwoofer by ear. To set
the subwoofer level, listen to familiar music or films
that have strong bass content and adjust the subwoofer
level until it sounds balanced with the rest of the speakers.
12. Touch
to return to the Setup Surround menu.
To obtain accurate output levels
To obtain accurate output levels, it is recommended to use

Chapter Four: Setting Up Multiple Zones
The KRF-X9995D offers dual-zone output and control, which
enables you to use a single receiver to control devices and
speakers for two zones (rooms). Due to its advanced features and controls, you can play music in one zone while
watching a movie in the other!
Depending on your tastes and budget, you can set up one
of the following “sound scenarios” to make full use of the
Receiver’s capabilities:
48
No additional amplifier for Zone B: You can use the
Receiver’s Speaker B output for Zone B. This allows you to
listen to full surround sound in Zone A only, or in stereo in
Zone A when Zone B is active. The sound in Zone B will
always be in stereo.
Stereo amplifier for Zone B: You can use an additional
stereo amplifier for Zone B (connected to the Receiver’s Zone
B Preouts). This allows you to listen to full surround sound
ZONE A
(Main System)
TV
in Zone A even if you are also listening in Zone B. The sound
in Zone B will always be in stereo.
Multiple zones require you to run wires and cabling from
the primary zone (Zone A) where your Receiver is installed
to another zone (Zone B) where an IR Receiver (for U.K.
only), a second set of speakers, and possibly a second TV/
Monitor is installed:
ZONE B

This chapter discusses some of the connection configurations and additional PowerTouch setup necessary if you want to take full advantage of the Receiver’s
multiple-zone capabilities. It contains the following sections:
Making Connections page 49
Setting Up PowerTouch page 50
For U.K. only:
To control the receiver from Zone B by making full use of
the bi-directional communication function of PowerTouch,
it is required to use an IR receiver (see "Connecting the External Infrared Receivers" on page 51).
Kenwood recommends hiring a competent installer to make
multiple-zone connections and setup.

Chapter Four: Setting Up Multiple Zones
Making Connections
This section describes how to connect speakers in the two
zones to support the different scenarios. Before you read
this section, Kenwood recommends reading “Connecting
Your Speakers” on page 4 of this manual. In addition, this
section discusses how to connect a second TV/Monitor and
how to connect an IR Receiver, IR Repeaters, Relays, and a
TV On/Off Sensor (for use with Perfect Macro).
Scenario 1: Surround Sound in Zone A only/Stereo in Zone A and Stereo in Zone B (Using the Receiver’s Speaker B Outputs)
The five amplifiers built into the receiver meet your sound
needs for both zones. The built-in amplifiers allow you to
listen to full surround sound if you are listening in Zone A
only, or stereo in Zone A if both zones are active. You will
always hear stereo in Zone B. Make the speaker connections
as shown in the illustration under “To Connect Front and
Surround Sound Speakers:” on page 5, being sure to also
connect the Zone B speakers to the SPEAKER B binding
post.

Connecting and Setting Up On/Off Sensors or Relay Controls (for U.K. only), continued
The KRF-X9995D (model for U.K.) supports 2 types of additional external controls:
• A relay control that enables you to operate external relay-control devices (such as the Xantech 590-0 programmable controller, via Xantech’s 599-00 pulse switching
module).
• A TV ON/OFF sensor that enables you to use the Perfect
Macro feature (described further in the Users’ Guide) to
accurately sense whether the TV is already on or off and
adjust accordingly.
To Connect Relay Controls:
1. Consult the relay control’s manual for compatibility information and installation instructions before connecting it to your new receiver. If you install the control incorrectly or connect an incompatible control to the receiver, you may damage the control and your new receiver.
2. Connect the control cable to the receiver’s RELAY CON-
TROL jack. This jack supports a 12V, 20mA signal.
Do not connect multiple 599-00 switching modules to each
other or to the receiver, as this can exceed the maximum
current capacity of the jack and damage your receiver.
To Connect TV ON/OFF Sensors:
1. Connect the sensor to the TV as described in the sensor’s
manual.
2. Connect the sensor cable to the receiver’s TV ON/ OFF
SENSOR jack. This jack supports a 5V, 10mA signal.
