CAUTION:

HOT SURFACE. DO NOT TOUCH.

The top surface over the internal heatsink may become hot when operating this product continuously.

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.

03 Connecting your equipment

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.

Choose one from Plans [A] to [E] 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 66 ).

!Sound does not come through simultaneously from the front height, front wide, speaker B and surround back speakers. Output speakers are different depending on the input signal or listening mode.

! Speaker System setting: Front Bi-Amp

Bi-amping connection of the front speakers for high sound quality with 5.2-channel surround sound.

[E] 5.2 channel surround system & ZONE 2 connection (Multi Zone)

! Speaker System setting: ZONE 2

With these connections you can simultaneously enjoy 5.2-channel surround sound in the main zone with stereo playback on another component in ZONE 2. (The selection of input devices is limited.)

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 25 .

!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 68 to make the settings that will give you the best sound experience when using the Home THX modes (page 37).

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.

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

03 Connecting your equipment

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.

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

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

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 bi-amping. 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.

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 27 ), the converter gives priority to HDMI, component, then composite (in that order).

!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 50 ) 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

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 45 )

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.

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

Connecting your DVD player with no HDMI output on page 18 ).

!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 45 ).

!If you want to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver, connect the receiver and TV with audio cables (page 17).

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 45 ).

!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 27 ).

!If you’re not using a subwoofer, change the front speaker setting (see Speaker Setting on page 64 ) 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 66 .

!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.

MULTI-ZONE setup

This receiver can power up to two independent systems in separate rooms after you have made the proper MULTI-ZONE connections.

Different sources can be playing in two zones at the same time or, depending on your needs, the same source can also be used. The main and sub zone have independent power (the main zone power can be off while sub zone is on) and the sub zone 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 the sub zone (ZONE 2). You will also need a separate amplifier if you are not using the MULTI-ZONE setup using speaker terminals (ZONE 2) on page 21 for the sub zone.

MULTI-ZONE listening options

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

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.

03 Connecting your equipment

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 54.

!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.

Plugging in the receiver

Only plug in after you have connected all your components to this receiver, including the speakers.

CAUTION

!Handle the power cord by the plug part. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord, and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet, as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, or other object on the power cord or pinch the cord in any other way. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cables. The power cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give you an electric shock. Check the power cord once in a while. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent service company for a replacement.

!Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied with this unit.

!Do not use the supplied power cord for any purpose other than that described below.

!The receiver should be disconnected by removing the mains plug from the wall socket when not in regular use, e.g., when on vacation.

!If you have connected speakers with a 6 W impedance, change the impedance setting before turning on the power.

1Plug the supplied power cord into the AC IN socket on the back of the receiver.

2Plug the other end into a power outlet.

!After this receiver is connected to an AC outlet, a 2 second to 10 second HDMI initialization process begins. You cannot carry out any operations during this process. The HDMI indicator in the front panel display blinks during this process, and you can turn on this receiver once it has stopped blinking. When you set the Control with HDMI to OFF, you can skip this process. For details about the Control with HDMI feature, see Control with HDMI function on page 45 .

Basic Setup

Switching the speaker impedance

We recommend using speakers of 8 W with this system, but it is possible to switch the impedance setting if you plan to use speakers with a 6 W impedance rating.

04 Basic Setup

!Speaker System – Shows the current settings. When this is selected and ENTER is pressed, the speaker system selection screen appears. Select the proper speaker system, then press RETURN to return.

If you are planning on bi-amping your front speakers, or setting up a separate speaker system in another room, read through

Speaker system setting on page 66 and make sure to connect your speakers as necessary before continuing to step 4.

!EQ Type – This determines how the frequency balance is adjusted.

!MCACC – The six MCACC presets are used for storing surround sound settings for different listening positions. Simply choose an unused preset for now (you can rename it later in Data Management on page 65 ).

!THX Speaker – Select YES when using THX speakers (all speakers other than the front speakers are set to SMALL). In other cases, leave at NO.

4Press then select START.

5Follow the instructions on-screen.

Make sure the microphone is connected, and if you’re using a subwoofer, make sure it is switched on and set to a comfortable volume level.

6Wait for the test tones to finish, then confirm the speaker configuration in the GUI screen.

A progress report is displayed on-screen while the receiver outputs test tones to determine the speakers present in your setup. Try to be as quiet as possible while it’s doing this.

If no operations are performed for 10 seconds while the speaker configuration check screen is being displayed, the Full Auto MCACC Setup will resume automatically. In this case, you don’t need to select ‘OK’ and press ENTER in step 7.

!With error messages (such as Too much ambient noise! or Check microphone.),

select RETRY after checking for ambient noise (see Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup on page 26 ) and verifying the mic connection. If there doesn’t seem to be a problem, you can simply select GO NEXT and continue.

The configuration shown on-screen should reflect the actual speakers you have.

!If you see an ERR message (or the speaker configuration displayed isn’t correct), there may be a problem with the speaker

connection. If selecting RETRY doesn’t work, turn off the power and check the speaker connections. If there doesn’t seem to be a problem, you can simply use i/jto select the speaker and k/lto change the setting and continue.

!If the speaker is not pointed to the microphone (listening position) or when using speakers that affect the phase (dipole speakers, reflective speakers, etc.), Reverse Phase may be displayed even if the speakers are properly connected.

If Reverse Phase is displayed, the speaker’s wiring (+ and –) may be inverted. Check the speaker connections.

If the connections were wrong, turn off the power, disconnect the power cord, then reconnect properly. After this,

perform the Full Auto MCACC procedure again.

If the connections were right, select GO NEXT and continue.

7Make sure ‘OK’ is selected, then press ENTER.

A progress report is displayed on-screen while the receiver outputs more test tones to determine the optimum receiver settings.

Again, try to be as quiet as possible while this is happening. It may take 3 to 10 minutes.

8The Full Auto MCACC Setup procedure is completed and the Home Menu menu reappears automatically.

Be sure to disconnect the microphone from this receiver upon completion of the Full Auto MCACC Setup.

The settings made in the Full Auto MCACC Setup should give you excellent surround sound from your system, but it is also possible to adjust these settings manually using The Advanced MCACC menu on page 60 or The System Setup and Other Setup menus on page

66.

!Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm (5 inches) will end up with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the

Manual speaker setup on page 66 .

!The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting should be accurate (taking delay and room

characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.

!If Full Auto MCACC Setup measurement results are incorrect due to the interaction of the speakers and viewing environment, we recommend adjusting the settings manually.

Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup

If the room environment is not optimal for the Auto MCACC Setup (too much background noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone) the final settings may be incorrect. Check for household appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.), that may be affecting the environment and switch them off if necessary. If there are any instructions showing in the front panel display, please follow them.

!Some older TVs may interfere with the operation of the microphone. If this seems to be happening, switch off the TV when doing the Auto MCACC Setup.

!Input Name – You can choose to rename the input function for easier identification. Select Rename to do so, or Default to return to the system default.

!Input Skip – When set to ON, that input is skipped when selecting the input using INPUT SELECT. (DVD and other inputs can be still be selected directly with the input function buttons.)

7When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You will return to the System Setup menu.

Input function default and possible settings

The terminals on the receiver generally correspond to the name of one of the input functions. If you have connected components to this receiver differently from (or in addition to) the defaults below, see The Input Setup menu on page 27 to tell the receiver how you’ve connected up.
