WARNING

This equipment is not waterproof. To prevent a fire or shock hazard, do not place any container filled with liquid near this equipment (such as a vase or flower pot) or expose it to dripping, splashing, rain or moisture.

WARNING

Before plugging in for the first time, read the following section carefully.

The voltage of the available power supply differs according to country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., 230 V or 120 V) written on the rear panel.

WARNING

To prevent a fire hazard, do not place any naked flame sources (such as a lighted candle) on the equipment.

VENTILATION CAUTION

When installing this unit, make sure to leave space around the unit for ventilation to improve heat radiation (at least 20 cm at top, 10 cm at rear, and 20 cm at each side).

WARNING

Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the product, and to protect it from overheating.

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.

Determining the speakers’ application

This unit is equipped with speaker terminals for 11 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 24.

! 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 98).

! 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 Switching the speaker terminals on page 78.

Placing the speakers

Refer to the chart below for placement of the speakers you intend to connect.

2SW 1

FHL

FWL

! 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 100 to make the settings that will give you the best sound experience when using the Home THX modes (page 59).

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 suffi-

cient 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 speak-

ers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.

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. This unit supports speakers with a nominal impedance of 4 W to 16 W.

CAUTION

! These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when con-

necting 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 any

of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a safety measure.

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.

1 Twist exposed wire strands together.

2 Loosen terminal and insert exposed wire.

3 Tighten terminal.

123

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.

Connecting your equipment

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.

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.

FRONTCENTERAFRONT HEIGHT

RLRL

SPEAKERS

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 bi-amping. Doing so

may damage your speakers.

Connecting your equipment

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).

About the video converter

The video converter ensures that all video sources are output through the HDMI OUT terminal. If the TV is only connected to the receiver’s composite VIDEO MONITOR OUT jacks, all the other video devices must be connected through composite connections. If several video components are assigned to the same input function (see The Input Setup menu on page 47), the converter gives priority to HDMI, component, then composite (in that order).

Note

! 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 the video signal does not appear on your TV, try adjusting the resolution settings on your component or dis-

play. 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 76) 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.

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) ! 4K signal transfer

— This may not operate properly, depending on the connected equipment. — 4K 24p, 4K 25p and 4K 30p signals are supported. — Not supported for the HDMI IN 6 and IN 7 terminals.

! 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 func-

tion on page 69)

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®/TM cable. If an HDMI cable other than a High Speed HDMI®/TM 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/con-

necting the HDMI cable during playback, may cause noise or interrupted audio.
