Do not connect any of the supplied speakers to any other amplifier. This may result in malfunction or fire.

This system has been designed for best performance when connected to the supplied speakers. We do not, therefore, recommend that you connect and use other speakers with this system.

1Twist and pull off the protective shields on each wire.

2Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the system unit.

Match the colored wire with the color-coded label (above the tabs), then insert the colored wire into the red (+) tab and the other wire with the black (–) tab.

3 Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the speakers in the same way.

Remove the supplied non-skid pads from the paper, and stick four onto the base of each satellite speaker. Actual speakers supplied may differ from those shown.

Placing the speakers

Depending on the size and characteristics of your room, you can choose to place your speakers in one of two ways using this system:

Standard surround 5-spot setup – This is a standard multichannel surround sound speaker setup for optimal 5.1 channel home theatre sound.

See About the listening modes on page 37 for more on using the different listening modes with each speaker setup.

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 6–9 ft. / 2–3 m apart, at equal distance from the TV.

Install the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen.

When using a 5-spot setup, install the surround speakers slightly above ear level, if possible.

Make sure that all speakers are securely installed (if you choose to install the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure it by suitable means). 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.

En

Connecting up

02

The front, center and surround speakers supplied with this system are magnetically shielded. However, placing them extremely close to a television may result in color distortion on the screen. If this happens, move the speakers a little further away and switch off the television for 15–30 minutes.

The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so should not be placed near a TV or monitor.

Wall-mounting the surround speaker system

Before mounting

Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its weight could cause the wood screws to work loose, or the wall material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker falling. Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on is strong enough to support them. Do not mount on plywood or soft surface walls.

Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws that are suitable for the wall material and that will support the weight of the speaker.

3–5 mm

10 mm

Wood screw

Protrusion: 5-7mm

If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the walls, consult a professional for advice.

Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that result from improper installation.

Connecting to your TV

This system has three different kinds of video output that you can use to connect up your TV. Check the available inputs on your TV to see which you can use.

Do not connect a VCR between this system and your TV as DVD playback will be affected.

Use the supplied video cable to connect the VIDEO OUT jack to a video input on your TV.

Placing the system unit too close to your TV may cause interference, especially if you’re using an indoor antenna. If you notice interference, move the system unit away from the TV.

Connecting using the S-video output

If your TV has an S-video input, you can use this instead of the standard video output for a better quality picture.

• Use an S-video cable (not supplied) to connect the S-VIDEO OUT to an S-video input on your TV.

Line up the small triangle below the jack with the same mark on the plug before plugging in.

Watching progressive scan video from the component video outputs

Compared to interlace video, progressive scan video effectively doubles the scanning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable, flickerfree image. Progressive scan video is available only from the component video output. There are a few things to keep in mind when switching the Component Out (page 63) setting to Progressive:

When set to Progressive, there is no video output from the VIDEO OUT (composite) and S (S-video) jacks.

If you want to display video on more than one monitor simultaneously, make sure the player is set to Interlace.

If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the setting to Progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In this case,

press STANDBY/ON to put the system in standby, then press and hold the front panel (stop) button for about 8 seconds until the display shows Mem.Clr.?. Press the front panel or button so that the display shows Interlace?. Press the front panel button to set to interlace and switch the system back on.

Compatibility of this player with progressive-scan and high-definition TVs.

This player is compatible with progressive video Macro Vision System Copy Guard.

Consumers should note that not all highdefinition television sets are fully compatible with this product and may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recommended that the user switch the

connection to the ‘standard definition’ output (Interlace). If there are questions regarding our TV set compatibility with this model, please contact our customer service center.

This system is compatible with the following Pioneer displays and monitors:

02

Using the SR+ mode with a Pioneer plasma display

When connected using an SR+ cable, a number of features (such as automatic video input switching and volume muting on the plasma display) become available to make using this unit with your Pioneer plasma display even easier.

See also SR+ control options for Pioneer plasma displays on page 59 for information on setting up the unit.

1Make sure that the plasma display and this unit are switched on and that they are connected with an SR+ cable.

See Using this unit with a Pioneer plasma display above for more on connecting these components.

2To switch SR+ mode on/off, press SR+ (SHIFT + 7).

The front panel display shows the new setting;

SR+ ON or SR+ OFF.

If SR+ Error shows in the display, it means there is a communication problem between the unit and the plasma display. Check all connections and retry.

The 3-ringed SR+ cable from Pioneer is commercially available under the part number ADE7095. Contact the Pioneer Customer Support division for more information on obtaining an SR+ cable.

You won’t be able to use the remote sensor of this unit with the CONTROL IN jack of this unit connected to the CONTROL OUT jack of your plasma display. You can use the remote sensor of the plasma display (even in standby) as long as the power isn’t switched off.

The automatic volume muting feature is enabled separately; see SR+ control options for Pioneer plasma displays on page 59. (You can also use the System Setup menu to switch the SR+ mode of this unit.)

If you disconnect the SR+ cable or switch the plasma display off while SR+ is on, the setting automatically reverts to SR+ OFF.

This displays an error if you switch the input of the unit with the plasma display switched off. Likewise, if this unit is switched off, the link with the plasma display will be terminated.
