CAUTION:

The Safety of Your Ears is in Your Hands

Get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level – a level that lets the sound come through clearly without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time, your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound, so what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:

Set your volume control at a low setting.

Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level, set the dial and leave it there.

BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:

Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.

Use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle; the use of headphones may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

This unit is equipped with speaker terminals for 9 channels, allowing users to select a variety of speaker layouts/usage patterns according to their tastes. The terminals to which the speakers should be connected differ according to the speaker layout/usage pattern. Select one speaker layout/usage pattern before connecting the speakers. For instructions on connections, see Installing your speaker system on page 17 .

!Be sure to connect speakers to the front left and right channels (L and R).

!It is also possible to only connect one of the surround back speakers (SB) or neither.

!If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the SUBWOOFER 2 terminal. Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In this case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.

Important

!The Speaker System setting must be made if you use any of the connections shown below other than [A] (see Speaker system setting on page 76 ).

!The speakers from which sound is output can be switched according to the speaker layout/usage pattern (sound is not necessarily output from all connected speakers). Use

the SPEAKERS button to switch the speakers from which sound is output. For details, see

Other speaker connections

!Your favorite speaker connections can be selected even if you have fewer than 5.2 speakers (except front left/right speakers).

!When not connecting a subwoofer, connect speakers with low frequency reproduction capabilities to the front channel. (The subwoofer’s low frequency component

is played from the front speakers, so the speakers could be damaged.)

!After connecting, be sure to conduct the Full Auto MCACC (speaker environment setting) procedure. See Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC) on page 32 .

!Place the surround speakers at 120º from the center. If you, (1) use the surround back speaker, and, (2) don’t use the front height speakers / front wide speakers, we recommend placing the surround speaker right beside you.

!If you intend to connect only one surround back speaker, place it directly behind you.

!Place the left and right front height speakers at least one meter (3.3 ft.) directly above the left and right front speakers.

THX speaker system setup

If you are using a THX certified subwoofer, use the THX INPUT jack on the subwoofer (if your subwoofer has one) or switch the filter position to THX on your subwoofer.

See also THX Audio Setting on page 78 to make the settings that will give you the best sound experience when using the Home THX modes (page 44).

Some tips for improving sound quality

Where you put your speakers in the room has a big effect on the quality of the sound. The following guidelines should help you to get the best sound from your system.

!The subwoofer can be placed on the floor. Ideally, the other speakers should be at about ear-level when you’re listening to them. Putting the speakers on the floor (except the subwoofer), or mounting them very high on a wall is not recommended.

!For the best stereo effect, place the front speakers 2 m to 3 m (6 ft. to 9 ft.) apart, at equal distance from the TV.

!If you’re going to place speakers around your CRT TV, use shielded speakers or place the speakers at a sufficient distance from your CRT TV.

!If you’re using a center speaker, place the front speakers at a wider angle. If not, place them at a narrower angle.

!Place the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen. Also, make sure the center speaker does not cross the line formed by the leading edge of the front left and right speakers.

!It is best to angle the speakers towards the listening position. The angle depends on the size of the room. Use less of an angle for bigger rooms.

!Surround and surround back speakers should be positioned 60 cm to 90 cm (2 ft. to 3 ft.) higher than your ears and tilted slightly downward. Make sure the speakers don’t face each other. For DVD-Audio, the speakers should be more directly behind the listener than for home theater playback.

!Try not to place the surround speakers farther away from the listening position than the front and center speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.

03 Connecting your equipment

Connecting the speakers

Each speaker connection on the receiver comprises a positive (+) and negative (–) terminal. Make sure to match these up with the terminals on the speakers themselves.

CAUTION

!These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any uninsulated parts.

!Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together and inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If core wires touch each other or come in contact with the rear panel or the metal parts of other speaker terminals, the protective circuit may be activated, setting the power to the standby mode.

Bare wire connections

CAUTION

Make sure that all speakers are securely installed. This not only improves sound quality, but also reduces the risk of damage or injury resulting from speakers being knocked over or falling in the event of external shocks such as earthquakes.

1Twist exposed wire strands together.

2Loosen terminal and insert exposed wire.

3Tighten terminal.

3

10 mm (3/8 in.)

Note

!Please refer to the manual that came with your speakers for details on how to connect the other end of the speaker cables to your speakers.

!Use an RCA cable to connect the subwoofer. It is not possible to connect using speaker cables.

!If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the SUBWOOFER 2 terminal. Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In this case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.

Banana plug connections

If you want to use speaker cables terminated with banana plugs, screw the speaker terminal fully shut, then plug the banana plug into the end of the speaker terminal.

Bi-amping your speakers

Bi-amping is when you connect the high frequency driver and low frequency driver of your speakers to different amplifiers for better crossover performance. Your speakers must be bi-ampable to do this (having separate terminals for high and low) and the sound improvement will depend on the kind of speakers you’re using.

CAUTION

!Most speakers with both High and Low terminals have two metal plates that connect the High to the Low terminals. These must be removed when you are bi-amping the speakers or you could severely damage the amplifier. See your speaker manual for more information.

!If your speakers have a removable crossover network, make sure you do not remove it for biamping. Doing so may damage your speakers.

Bi-wiring your speakers

Your speakers can also be bi-wired if they support bi-amping.

!With these connections, the Speaker System setting makes no difference.

CAUTION

!Don’t connect different speakers from the same terminal in this way.

!When bi-wiring as well, heed the cautions for bi-amping shown above.

% To bi-wire a speaker, connect two speaker cords to the speaker terminal on the receiver.

Using a banana plug for the second connection is recommended.

Installing your speaker system

At the very least, front left and right speakers only are necessary. Note that your main surround speakers should always be connected as a pair, but you can connect just one surround back speaker if you like (it must be connected to the left surround back terminal).

[A] 9.2 channel surround system (Front height/Front wide) connection

!If necessary, select ‘9.1ch FH/FW’ from the Speaker System menu. See Speaker system setting on page 76 to do this.

!When only connecting one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK L (Single) terminals.

About the video converter

The video converter ensures that all video sources are output through all of the MONITOR VIDEO OUT jacks. The only exception is HDMI: since this resolution cannot be downsampled, you must connect your monitor/TV to the receiver’s HDMI output when connecting this video source.

If several video components are assigned to the same input function (see The Input Setup menu on page 34 ), the converter gives priority to HDMI, component, then composite (in that order).

Note

!If the video signal does not appear on your TV, try adjusting the resolution settings on your component or display. Note that some components (such as video game units) have resolutions that may not be converted. In this case, try switching Digital Video Conversion (in Setting the Video options on page 58 ) OFF.

!The signal input resolutions that can be converted from the component video input for the HDMI output are 480i/576i, 480p/576p, 720p and 1080i. 1080p signals cannot be converted.

!Only signals with an input resolution of 480i/576i can be converted from the

component video input for the composite

MONITOR OUT terminals.

!For optimal video performance, THX recommends switching Digital Video Conversion (in Setting the Video options on page 58 ) OFF.

About HDMI

The HDMI connection transfers uncompressed digital video, as well as almost every kind of digital audio.

This receiver incorporates High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI®) technology. This receiver supports the functions described below through HDMI connections.

!Digital transfer of uncompressed video (contents protected by HDCP (1080p/24, 1080p/60, etc.))

!3D signal transfer

!Deep Color signal transfer

!x.v.Color signal transfer

!ARC (Audio Return Channel)

!Input of multi-channel linear PCM digital audio signals (192 kHz or less) for up to 8 channels

!Input of the following digital audio formats:

Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, High bitrate audio (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio), DVD-Audio, CD, SACD (DSD signal), Video CD, Super VCD

!Synchronized operation with components using the Control with HDMI function (see

Control with HDMI function on page 53 )

Note

!An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a

separate adaptor (DVIdHDMI) to do so. A DVI connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.

!If you connect a component that is not compatible with HDCP, an

HDCP ERROR message is displayed on the front panel display. Some components that

are compatible with HDCP still cause this message to be displayed, but so long as there is no problem with displaying video this is not

a malfunction.

!Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers.

!This receiver supports SACD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. To take advantage of these formats, however, make sure that the component connected to this receiver also supports the corresponding format.

!Use a High Speed HDMI® cable. If an HDMI cable other than a High Speed HDMI® cable is used, it may not work properly.

!When an HDMI cable with a built-in equalizer is connected, it may not operate properly.

!Signal transfer is only possible when connected to a compatible component.

!HDMI format digital audio transmissions require a longer time to be recognized. Due to this, interruption in the audio may occur when switching between audio formats or beginning playback.

!Turning on/off the device connected to this unit’s HDMI OUT terminal during playback, or disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable during playback, may cause noise or interrupted audio.

This connection is required in order to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver.

!When connecting to an HDMI/DVI-compatible monitor using the HDMI OUT 2 terminal, switch the HDMI output setting to HDMI OUT 2 or HDMI OUT ALL. See Switching the HDMI output on page 61 .

!For input components, connections other than HDMI connections are also possible (see

Connecting your DVD player with no HDMI output on page 23 ).

!If you want to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver, connect the receiver and TV with audio cables.

When the TV and receiver are connected by HDMI connections, if the TV supports the HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) function, the sound of the TV is input to the receiver via the HDMI OUT terminal, so there is no need to connect an audio cable. In this case, set TV Audio at HDMI Setup to via HDMI (see HDMI Setup on page 53 ).

!If you want to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver, connect the receiver and TV with audio cables (page 23).

When the TV and receiver are connected by HDMI connections, if the TV supports the HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) function, the sound of the TV is input to the receiver via the HDMI OUT terminal, so there is no need to connect an audio cable. In this case, set TV Audio at HDMI Setup to via HDMI (see HDMI Setup on page 53 ).

!If you use an optical digital audio cable, you’ll need to tell the receiver which digital input you connected the player to (see The Input Setup menu on page 34 ).

!To use a 5.1-channel speaker set, use the surround speakers for the surround channel, not the surround back channel.

!The sound from the surround back terminals will depend on how you have configured the Speaker system setting on page 76 .

!The audio signal input to MULTI CH IN cannot be downmixed.

Connecting additional amplifiers

This receiver has more than enough power for any home use, but it’s possible to add additional amplifiers to every channel of your system using the pre-outs. Make the connections shown below to add amplifiers to power your speakers.

!If you’re not using a subwoofer, change the front speaker setting (see Speaker Setting on page 74 ) to

LARGE.

!You can use the additional amplifier on the surround back channel pre-outs for a single speaker as well. In this case plug the amplifier into the left (SURROUND BACK L (Single)) terminal only.

!The sound from the surround back terminals will depend on how you have configured the Speaker system setting on page 76 .

!If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the SUBWOOFER 2 terminal. Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In this case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.

!To hear sound only from the pre-outs, switch the speaker system to OFF, or simply disconnect any speakers that are connected directly to the receiver.

3Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached stand.

To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction indicated by the arrow (fig. a) then clip the loop onto the stand (fig. b).

!If you plan to mount the AM antenna to a wall or other surface, secure the stand with screws (fig. c) before clipping the loop to the stand. Make sure the reception is clear.

4Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and in a direction giving the best reception.

5 Connect the FM wire antenna into the FM antenna socket.

For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.

MULTI-ZONE setup

This receiver can power up to three independent systems in separate rooms after you have made the proper MULTI-ZONE connections. Different sources can be playing in three zones at the same time or, depending on your needs, the same source can also be used. The main and sub zones have independent power (the main zone power can be off while one (or both) of the sub zones is on) and the sub zones can be controlled by the remote or front panel controls.

Making MULTI-ZONE connections

It is possible to make these connections if you have a separate TV and speakers for your primary (ZONE 2) sub zone, and a separate TV

and a separate amplifier (and speakers) for your secondary (ZONE 3) sub zone. You will also need a separate amplifier if you are not using the MULTI-ZONE setup using speaker terminals (ZONE 2) on page 27 for your primary sub zone. There are two primary sub zone setups possible with this system. Choose whichever works best for you.

MULTI-ZONE listening options

The following table shows the signals that can be output to ZONE 2 and ZONE 3:

Connecting an IR receiver

If you keep your stereo components in a closed cabinet or shelving unit, or you wish to use the sub zone remote control in another zone, you can use an optional IR receiver (such as a Niles or Xantech unit) to control your system instead of the remote sensor on the front panel of this receiver.

!Remote operation may not be possible if direct light from a strong fluorescent lamp is shining on the IR receiver remote sensor window.

!Note that other manufacturers may not use the IR terminology. Refer to the manual that came with your component to check for IR compatibility.

!If using two remote controls (at the same time), the IR receiver’s remote sensor takes priority over the remote sensor on the front panel.

1 Connect the IR receiver sensor to the IR IN jack on the rear of this receiver.

IR receiver

2 Connect the IR IN jack of another component to the IR OUT jack on the rear of this receiver to link it to the IR receiver.

Please see the manual supplied with your IR receiver for the type of cable necessary for the connection.

!If you want to link a Pioneer component to the IR receiver, see Operating other Pioneer components with this unit’s sensor on page 30 to connect to the CONTROL jacks instead of the IR OUT jack.

Operating other Pioneer components with this unit’s sensor

Many Pioneer components have SR CONTROL jacks which can be used to link components together so that you can use just the remote sensor of one component. When you use a remote control, the control signal is passed along the chain to the appropriate component.

!If you want to control all your components using this receiver’s remote control, see page 63.

!If you have connected a remote control to the CONTROL IN jack (using a mini-plug cable), you won’t be able to control this unit using the remote sensor.

Important

!Note that if you use this feature, make sure that you also have at least one set of analog audio, video or HDMI jacks connected to another component for grounding purposes.

1Decide which component you want to use the remote sensor of.

When you want to control any component in the chain, this is the remote sensor at which you’ll point the corresponding remote control.

2Connect the CONTROL OUT jack of that component to the CONTROL IN jack of another Pioneer component.

Use a cable with a mono mini-plug on each end for the connection.
