This unit can be used in a number of ways, depending on the layout of the speakers you are installing, and the connections made to external devices. Read the following to help make the installation process smoother.

Step1: Speaker Layout

Select the speaker layout that suits the types of speakers you have and the conditions they will be used in from the choices presented on pages P9 to P12, then install the speakers by referring to the illustrations and explanations on the relevant page. Speaker layouts include systems that use surround speakers and systems that use height speakers. Also refer to the combinations available in "Speaker combinations" on P13.

Step2: Connect the Speakers

Connect the speaker system to this unit. The connection process will be smoother if you refer to the illustrations and explanations and prepare the required cables before hand.

Step3: Connect the TV & AV Components

Refer to P15 to P19 to connect your external devices such as your TV, Blu-Ray Disc Player, and also supplied accessories such as the antennas. The connection process will be smoother if you refer to the illustrations and explanations, confirm the connection types on the external devices, and prepare the required cables before hand.

¢1: 22° to 30°, ¢2: 120°

Front speakers output front stereo sound and the center speaker outputs sounds emanating from the center of the screen, such as dialog and vocals. Surround speakers create the sound field at the rear. The powered subwoofer reproduces bass sounds and enriches the sound field. The optimal positioning for front speakers is at ear height, and for surround speakers it is just above ear height. The center speaker should be set up at an angle to face the listening position. Placing the powered subwoofer between the center speaker and a front speaker gives you a natural sound even when playing music.

Make correct connection between the unit's jacks and speaker's jacks (+ to + and - to -) for each channel. If connection is wrong, reverse phase may make bass output poor.

Setup

0Settings for the speaker configuration you have connected need to be made in "1. AccuEQ Room Calibration" in Initial Setup (P20).

0If any of the connected speakers have an impedance of 4 ≠ or more to less than 6 ≠, after completing Initial Setup, you need to make some

settings in the Setup menu. Press on the remote controller, select "2. Speaker" - "Configuration" and set "Speaker Impedance" to "4ohms".

Connect the speaker cable so the wires do not protrude from the speaker jacks.

If the exposed wires of the speakers touch the rear panel or the + and - wires touch each other, the protection circuit will be activated.

1. Connect the TV

To ARC TV

For a TV that supports the ARC (Audio Return Channel) feature, use an HDMI cable and connect according to illustration "a". Choose an HDMI IN jack on the TV that supports ARC when connecting.

Setup

0Settings are required to use the ARC function. For "4. Audio Return Channel" (P21) in Initial Setup, select "Yes".

0Refer to the instruction manual for the TV for TV connections and instructions regarding settings for CEC features and audio output.

To Non-ARC TV

For a TV that does not support the ARC (Audio Return Channel) feature (*), connect both the HDMI cable in illustration "a" and the digital optical cable in "b".

0Connection with a digital optical cable is not necessary if you will watch TV through a device such as a cable settop box (that is, not use a tuner built into the TV) that you have connected to the input jack on this unit.

(*)The ARC feature: This feature transfers TV audio signals via HDMI cable so that you can play the audio from the TV through this unit. Connection to an ARC compatible TV is complete with one HDMI cable. Refer to the instruction manual for your TV to see if it supports ARC.

This is an example of connection with an AV component that has an HDMI jack. With connection to an AV component that conforms with the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) standard, you can use features such as the HDMI CEC feature (*) that links with the input selector, and the HDMI Standby Through feature which allows you to play video and audio from AV components on the TV even when this unit is in standby mode.

0To play 4K or 1080p video, use the high speed HDMI cable.

Setup

0When "Yes" is selected for "4. Audio Return Channel" in Initial Setup (P21), the HDMI CEC function and HDMI Standby Through function are automatically enabled. If "No, Skip" is selected, settings are required in the Setup menu after

Initial Setup is complete. Press on the remote controller and make the settings in "5. Hardware" - "HDMI".

0To enjoy digital surround sound including Dolby Digital, audio output should be set to "Bitstream output" on the connected Blu-ray Disc player or other device.

(*)The HDMI CEC feature: You can control features such as linking input switching with the input selector and players conforming to the CEC standard, switching audio to output it from the TV or from this unit, and adjusting the volume using the remote controller of a CEC-compliant TV, and automatically switching this unit to standby when the TV is turned off.

3. Connect the Non-HDMI AV Component

This is an example of connection with an AV component that does not have an HDMI jack. Select the cables to make the connections to the AV component to match the jacks it has. When video input connection is to the CBL/SAT jack, the audio input connection should also be to the CBL/SAT jacks, and so on, so that you connect the video input jacks to the jacks with the same name as the audio input jacks. Note that video signals input to the VIDEO IN jack will be converted to HDMI video signals and then output from the HDMI OUT output jack.

0 To enjoy digital surround playback, such as Dolby Digital, the audio signals need to pass through a connection via digital coaxial cable or digital optical cable.

0 It is possible to change assignment of the input jacks you see in the illustration at left, so you can also connect to any jack other than CBL/SAT (P53, 54).

Setup

0 To enjoy digital surround sound including Dolby Digital, audio output should be set to "Bitstream output" on the connected Cable/Satellite set-top box or other device.
