Front speakers
Install in the front left and right positions. Symmetrical
installation is ideal. The front speakers are always used regardless
of the listen mode.
Front Height speakers
Install on the front of the listening position, at the same height as
the surround speakers.
Center speaker
Install in the front center position. This speaker improves
the acoustic image positioning and reproduction of sound
movement.
Surround speakers
Install straight on or slightly behind the left and right of the
listening position, at in an as high as possible height (ideally
one meter above the height of the listener’s ears). Symmetrical
installation is ideal. The surround speakers reproduce the feeling
of movement and presence of sound.
Subwoofer
In general, install on the front center position near the front
speakers. The subwoofer reproduces the powerful bass effects. As
it is less directional to other speakers, it can be installed so that
the bass can be reproduced best according to the listening room
layout.
Surround Back speaker(s)
Install on the rear of the listening position, at the same height as
the surround speakers.
• Ideal surround play is possible when all of the speakers
above are installed. If the center speaker and/or the
subwoofer is not installed, the system optimizes playback
according to the current system by assigning the sound
of absent channels to other speakers.
• RV-6000 :
Up to two subwoofers can be connected to RV-6000
depending on speaker setup. See <Connecting

HDMI MONITOR IN
TV Monitor
• An HDMI/DVI converter cable is necessary to connect a
TV monitor with a DVI input terminal. The TV monitor also
needs to be compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth
Digital Contents Protection). Note that the video may be
unable to be monitored depending on the combined
components.
• When components are connected through the
HDMI connection, it takes a certain period before the
video/audio are output because they need mutual
authentication.
• If the video and/or audio are not output normally, turn all
of the connected components off then on, and try again.
• If the resolution of the incoming video signal is different
from that of the TV, no video is output. In this case, adjust
the resolution on the BD/DVD player.
• Use an certified High Speed HDMI™ cable (Category 2
cable) for connection.
To use the ARC function of this unit, be sure to use a cable
carrying the logo shown above.

Using Radio Data System
Auto Memory
Radio Data System is a system that transmits useful information
(in the form of digital data) for FM broadcasts along with the
broadcast signal. Tuners and receivers designed for Radio Data
System reception can extract the information from the broadcast
signal for use with various functions, such as automatic display of
the station name.
Before using a function utilizing the Radio Data System, be
sure to perform the Auto Memory operation by referring to the
description in <Auto Memory>.
AUTO MEMORY function
Automatically selects and stores up to 40 Radio Data
System stations in the preset memory.
If fewer than 40 Radio Data System stations have been
stored in the preset memory, regular FM stations will be
stored in the remaining places.
PS (Program Service) Name Display
Automatically displays the station name transmitted by the
Radio Data System station.
PTY (Program TYpe) identification Search
Automatically tunes to a station that is currently
broadcasting the specified program type (genre).
RT (Radio Text) function
Displays the radio text data transmitted by some Radio
Data System stations when you press [DISPLAY]. There is
"NO RT" display if no text data is transmitted.
The "RDS" indicator lights up when an Radio Data
System broadcast (signal) is received.
This function automatically stores up to 40 Radio Data System
stations in the preset memory. In order to use the PTY function,
the Radio Data System stations must be stored in the preset
memory using the AUTO MEMORY function.

Glossary
Dolby Digital
Digital multi-channel audio standard developed by Dolby
Laboratories. It supports transmission and recording of highquality digital audio signals from monaural up to 5.1 channels
using an amount of data that is a fraction of the PCM audio
format. The main features of Dolby Digital include:
• Downmixing optimized for monaural, stereo and Pro Logic
configurations as well as for playback of 6.1-channel audio.
• Transfer of information related to the dynamic range and the
conversation level adjustment.
• Wide range of operating bit rates.
Dolby Digital EX/Dolby EX
These extensions of Dolby Digital add the surround back channel
to the Dolby Digital channels to deliver a surround effect with
enhanced presence and listener envelopment.
Dolby Pro Logic II
This is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby
Laboratories. It generates 5-channel surround audio with
rich feeling of presence from any stereo source, delivering an
excellent multidimensional sound field effect even from an
ordinary stereo music content including CD music. It offers three
modes including the Movie mode optimized for movie playback,
the Music mode for music playback and the Game mode for
game play.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Matrix decoding technology developed by improving Dolby
Pro Logic II. It accepts any stereo or 5.1-channel audio input
and generates 7.1-channel surround audio with a more natural,
smoother surround sound field. It also offers three modes
optimized for each source content, including the Movie mode
for movie playback, the Music mode for music playback and the
Game mode for game play.
Dolby Pro Logic IIz
Dolby Pro Logic IIz adds front height channels to surround sound,
creating a 7.1 playback system for home music, movies, and video
games.
Dolby Pro Logic IIz brings enhanced spatial effects, added depth,
and an overall airiness to the listening experience.
Dolby Digital Plus
Trou bl es hootin g
This is an audio technology developed based on Dolby Digital by
improving both the sound quality and functions. It delivers multichannel surround audio with completely discrete channels. The
compatible bit rates have been expanded to between 32 kbps
and 6 Mbps from between 96 and 640 kbps with Dolby Digital.
The excellent coding efficiency makes this technology capable
of delivering quality audio in max. 7.1 channels without
affecting the bit rates assigned for the video and other services.
Compatibility with existing home theater systems incorporating
the Dolby Digital technology is also secured.
Dolby TrueHD
This loss-less (reversible) audio technology has been developed
by Dolby Laboratories and reproduces high-quality studiomastered audio data perfectly with bit-order accuracy. It is
compatible with up to 7.1 channels when the sampling frequency
is 95 kHz and up to 5.1 channels when the sampling frequency is
192 kHz.
Dolby Virtual Speaker
This is a speaker virtual technology that can generate an ideal
5.1-channel home theater environment using only a pair of
speakers.
DTS Digital Surround
Digital surround format developed by DTS Corporation. It
features low compression rate and high sound quality, and is
capable of reproducing max. 5.1 channels.
DTS-ES
This is a 6.1-channel audio technology developed by adding the
surround back channel to DTS Digital Surround.
The signal of this format can also be played on existing DTS
5.1-channeel components. DTS-ES consists of two types, which
are DTS ES Matrix and DTS-ES Discrete 6.1.
DTS-ES Matrix
With this format, the audio for the surround back channel added
to the DTS 5.1-channel audio is allocated to the two surround
channels during recording. When the signal is decoded, the audio
for the surround back channel is restored from the surround
channels to deliver the 6.1-channel audio.
DTS-ES Discrete
With this format, the audio for the surround back channel added
to the DTS 5.1-channel audio is recorded in an independent
channel.
DTS Neo:6
This is a matrix decoding technology developed by DTS
Corporation, capable of delivering max. 6.1 channels from any
2-channel source. It includes two modes, including the DTS Neo 6
CINEMA mode optimized for movie playback and the DTS Neo 6
MUSIC mode optimized for music playback.
DTS 96/24
5.1-channel digital audio format developed as an evolution of the
DTS 5.1-channel format. It enables high-quality playback with 96
kHz sampling frequency and 24-bit quantization (the signal of
this format can also be reproduced on existing DTS 5.1-channel
player components).

DTS−HD Master Audio
This loss-less (reversible) audio technology has been developed
by DTS Corporation and reproduces audio in the same high
quality as the studio-mastered audio data. With 96 kHz sampling
frequency and 24-bit quantization, it is compatible with max.
7.1 channels. This technology can be played with any of seven
speaker layout patterns, making the content producer capable
of delivering the intended sound effects in a variety of audio
reproduction environments of users.
• 3D Over HDMI
This unit is able to pass through 3D mandatory formats
defined by HDMI Licensing, LLC, Frame Packing, Side-by-Side
Horizontal and Top-and-Bottom.
DVI
DVI (Digital Visual Interface) is the standard for connection
between PC and display.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
This is an extension of the previous DTS audio format and can
record 7.1-chanenl audio with 96 kHz sampling frequency and 24
quantization bits. The multi-channel sound recorded with DTSHD High Resolution Audio can reproduce details more clearly and
realistically than the audio of DVD-Video.
This technology can also be played with any of seven speaker
layout patterns, making the content producer capable of
delivering the intended sound effects in a variety of audio
reproduction environments of users.
DTS-HD Low Bit Rate
One of the DTS-HD audio formats. It is the low bit rate for use in
communications including the Internet communications.
PCM
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) is a method of encoding audio
signal digitally without compression.
DSD (Direct Stream Digital)

HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a standard
developed based on DVI (Digital Visual Interface) and features the
capability of transferring both non-compressed digital video and
multi-channel digital audio through a single cable.
This unit is compatible with the HDMI optional functions listed
below.
• Deep Color
Video signals with a larger number of bits per color component
than ordinary 8 bits, such as the 10-bit and 12-bit signals can
be transferred to achieve richer expression of gradations.
• x.v.Color
A larger variety of colors, or about 180% more colors than the
number of colors of sRGB color space, can be reproduced.
• Lip Sync
The video and audio are synchronized in the monitor by
detecting the delay of monitored video automatically.
• Audio Return Channel
Audio Return Channel will reduce the number of cables
required to deliver audio upstream for processing and
playback.
In cases where HDTVs are directly receiving audio and video
content, this new Audio Return Channel allows the HDTV to
send the audio stream to the A/V receiver over the HDMI cable,
eliminating the need for an extra cable.
HDCP
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection) is copyright
protection technology for prevention of illegal duplication of
video contents. It is used in encryption of digital interfaces such
as DVI and HDMI.
