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.

Features

Audio

% Dolby Atmos

This AV receiver supports the latest Dolby Atmos surround sound system. Dolby Atmos is a new technology in which, through real time calculation of audio data and meta data (position and time information) included in the audio signal, a surround sound space is achieved irrespective of the speaker layout and number of speakers. Dolby Atmos contents are required to enjoy Dolby Atmos. For Blu-ray discs with Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos can be played by connecting most conventional Blu-ray discs with this receiver using HDMI.

% Class D Amplifier

This unit is an AV receiver developed based on the latest high performance Class D amplifier and integrating the essence of Pioneer’s high sound quality designs. This new generation reference amplifier offers outstanding performance with high sound quality and reproduces the latest in multi-channel digital contents.

% ESS-24bit-DAC-equipped

All channels are equipped with ESS SABRE Premier Audio DACs. The Jitter Eliminators achieve clearer sound.

% Hi-bit 24 Audio Processing

Creates a wider dynamic range with digital sources like CDs or DVDs. 16- and 20-bit PCM as well as compressed audio is requantized to 24 bits, and the high frequency component is interpolated upon data processing to enable smoother, more subtle musical expression.

% Easy setup using MCACC PRO

The Auto MCACC Setup provides a quick but accurate surround sound setup, which includes the advanced features of Professional Acoustic Calibration EQ.

% Auto Phase Control Plus

For discs created with standards other than Phase Control, the LFE channel is delayed upon recording in the first place. This function automatically corrects phase shifting on such discs and broadcasts. This function is particularly effective when playing multi-channel music containing low frequency effects (LFE).

% Full Band Phase Control

The further advanced Full Band Phase Control technology focuses on the group delay in the speaker network filter, and compensates with special digital signal processing (DSP), to adjust the phase of each unit as well as the group delay for each speaker. Full Band Phase Control gives multi-range speakers the sound coherence of full-range speakers, while retaining the wide frequency range advantage.

% Subwoofer EQ

The EQ for subwoofer output can be corrected. In addition to the results of MCACC automatic adjustment, the subwoofer output can be adjusted to match the viewing environment or your taste by manual correction.

% Virtual Speakers

By turning on the ‘Virtual Surround Back’, ‘Virtual Height’, and ‘Virtual Wide’ modes, it is possible to realize a maximum of 11.1 channels combining the speakers that are actually installed and the virtual speakers. This makes for a smoother connection between the sounds and an improved 3D feel.

Video

% Ultra HD (with 4K/60p video support) - Pass-through and upscaling -

Up to 4K/60p resolution images can be passed through and displayed as such, and the HD (High Definition) or Full HD images of DVDs, Blu-ray discs and HD broadcasts can be upscaled to a resolution of up to 4K/60p and displayed. A separate monitor supporting Ultra HD (4K video) is required.

% HDMI (4K/60p, 3D, Audio Return Channel)

A compatible component is required to use the above function.

% HDCP 2.2

This receiver is compatible with the HDCP 2.2 standard, which has stringent copyright protection technology.

Installing the receiver

! When installing this unit, make sure to put it on a level and stable surface. ! Don’t install it on the following places:

— on a color TV (the screen may distort) — near a cassette deck (or close to a device that gives off a magnetic field). This may interfere with the sound. — in direct sunlight — in damp or wet areas — in extremely hot or cold areas — in places where there is vibration or other movement — in places that are very dusty — in places that have hot fumes or oils (such as a kitchen)

! Do not touch this receiver’s bottom panel while the power is on or just after it is turned off. The bottom panel

becomes hot when the power is on (or right after it is turned off) and could cause burns.

Loading the batteries

The batteries included with the unit are to check initial operations; they may not last over a long period. We recommend using alkaline batteries that have a longer life. ! The remote control setting may be restored to the default after the batteries are replaced. If this happens, reset

it (page 83 ).

WARNING

! Do not use or store batteries in direct sunlight or other excessively hot place, such as inside a car or near a

heater. This can cause batteries to leak, overheat, explode or catch fire. It can also reduce the life or performance of batteries.

Operating range of remote control unit

The remote control may not work properly if:

! There are obstacles between the remote control and the receiver’s remote sensor. ! Direct sunlight or fluorescent light is shining onto the remote sensor. ! The receiver is located near a device that is emitting infrared rays. ! The receiver is operated simultaneously with another infrared remote control unit.

30°

7 m (23 ft.)

CAUTION

Incorrect use of batteries may result in such hazards as leakage and bursting. Observe the following precautions:

! Never use new and old batteries together. ! Insert the plus and minus sides of the batteries properly according to the marks in the battery case. ! When inserting the batteries, make sure not to damage the springs on the battery’s (–) terminals. This can

cause batteries to leak or overheat.

! Batteries with the same shape may have different voltages. Do not use different batteries together. ! When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental public insti-

tution’s rules that apply in your country/area.

Determining the speakers’ application

This unit permits you to build various surround systems, in accordance with the number of speakers you have.

! 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.

! When neither the top middle, surround back, or front wide speaker is connected, Dolby Atmos does not play. Choose one from Plans [A] to [G] below.

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 94 ).

! 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 OUT P. button to switch the speakers from which sound is output. For details, see Switching the speaker terminals on page 75 .

! 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 47 .

Placing the speakers

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

Listener speaker placement guidelines

Listener speakers, such as Left, Right, Center, Left Surround, and Right Surround, are placed at ear level relative to the listener position.

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 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.

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.)

Notes

! 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.

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).

Standard surround connection

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

The top middle terminals can also be used for the front wide and Speaker B speakers.

Connecting your equipment

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.

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.

! When neither the top middle, surround back, or front wide speaker is connected, Dolby Atmos does not play.

About the video converter

The video converter ensures that all video sources are output through the HDMI OUT 1 and HDMI OUT 2 terminals. 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 48 ), the converter gives priority to HDMI, component, then composite (in that order).

Notes

! Among the HDMI input signals for this receiver, 1080p can be up-converted to 4K. However, this is limited to

when connected with 4K compatible televisions. Please set SCAL settings to AUTO (page 75 ).

! The video converter may not operate and the video may not be output depending on the input signal. In such

case, put the SCAL settings to PURE and connect both the input equipment and the TV with the same type of cable (page 75 ).

! In principle, input signals from COMPONENT VIDEO IN and VIDEO IN are output from the HDMI terminal

without resolution conversion. Depending on the resolution of the connected television, there maybe cases where video does not output to the screen.

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®/TM) 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.)) ! HDCP 2.2 compatible terminal: BD, DVD (HDMI IN 1), SAT/CBL (HDMI IN 2), HDMI OUT 1, HDMI OUT 2 ! 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, 4K 30p, 4K 50p and 4K 60p signals are supported.

! 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), CD, SACD (DSD signal), OBJECT based audio (Atmos)

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

tion on page 69 )

Notes

! 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.

! When connecting to an HDMI/DVI-compatible monitor using the HDMI OUT 2 terminal, switch the HDMI

output setting to OUT 2 or OUT 1+2. See Switching the HDMI output on page 76 .

Also, MAIN/HDZONE must be set to MAIN beforehand (page 98 ). ! For input components, connections other than HDMI connections are also possible (see Connecting your DVD

player with no HDMI output on page 29 ).

! 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 can be input to the receiver via the HDMI OUT terminal, so there is no need to connect an audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON (see HDMI Setup on

page 70 ).

After setting the ARC, some time may be required for the connected device to be recognized and the sound to

be produced.

— If you use a coaxial digital audio cable or RCA (analog) audio cable, you’ll need to tell the receiver which digi-

tal or analog audio input you connected the TV to (see The Input Setup menu on page 48 ).

— Please refer to the TV’s operation manual for directions on connections and setup for the TV.

! If the TV to be connected using HDMI supports 4K/60p, you can switch the 4K/60p signal input setting in

accordance with TV performance. When the 4K/60p setting is changed to 4:4:4, the video image may not be output normally unless the HDMI cable supports 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit (18 Gbps transmission). In such a case, select 4:2:0 (page 76 ).

! You cannot input 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit video from HDMI IN 3 to the IN 6 terminal. Use the BD IN, HDMI IN 1 or

HDMI IN 2 terminal.

! The HDMI OUT 2 terminal outputs 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit video when MAIN/HDZONE is set to MAIN. When it is

set to HDZONE, the 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit video is not output.
