Connecting your equipment

This receiver provides you with many connection possibilities, but it doesn’t have to be difficult. This chapter explains the kinds of components you can connect to make up your home theater system.

CAUTION

Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. Plugging in should be the final step.

Important

Illustration shows the VSX-1021, however connections for the VSX-921 are the same except where noted.

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.

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 Operating Instructions in CD-ROM).

! 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.

[A] 7.1 channel surround system (Front height)

*Default setting

! Speaker System setting: Normal(SB/FH)

Sub zone

Other speaker connections

! Your favorite speaker connections can be

selected even if you have fewer than 5.1 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 16 .

Placing the speakers

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

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.

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.

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 Operating Instructions in CD-ROM), the converter gives priority to HDMI, component, then composite (in that order).

! 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) ! 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 Operating Instructions in CD-ROM)

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.

Placing the microphone on any of the following surfaces may make accurate measurement impossible:

! Sofas or other soft surfaces. ! High places such as tabletops and sofa tops.

The Full Auto MCACC display appears once the microphone is connected.

3 Select the parameters you want to set.

! When data measurement is taken, the

reverb characteristics data (both before- and after-calibration) that this receiver had been storing will be overwritten.

! When measurement is taken of the reverb

characteristics data other than SYMMETRY, the data are not measured after the correction. If you will need to measure after correcting data, take the measurement using the EQ Professional menu in the

Manual MCACC setup. If the speakers are connected using any setup other than Normal(SB/FH), be sure to set Speaker System before the Full Auto MCACC Setup. See Speaker system setting on Operating Instructions in CD-ROM.

! 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 Operating

Instructions in CD-ROM 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.

! 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.

4 Press then select START.

Basic Setup

5 Follow 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.

6 Wait 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 17 ) and verifying the mic connection. If there doesn’t seem to be a problem, you can simply select GO NEXT and continue.

A/V RECEIVER

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/j to select the speaker and k/l to 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.

7 Make 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.

8 The 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.

! Depending on the characteristics of your

room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm will end up with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Manual speaker setup on Operating Instructions in CD-ROM.

! 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.

Ce récepteur vous offre de nombreuses possibilités de liaisons, ce qui ne signifie pas nécessairement que cela soit compliqué. Ce chapitre explique les différents types de composants que vous pouvez raccorder pour réaliser votre système de home cinéma.

ATTENTION

Avant de réaliser ou de modifier des liaisons, éteignez les appareils et débranchez le cordon d’alimentation de la prise électrique. Le cordon d’alimentation se branche en tout dernier lieu.

Important

Cette illustration montre le VSX-1021. Les raccordements du VSX-921 sont identiques, sauf mention contraire.

Détermination des enceintes à utiliser

Cet appareil permet de réaliser différents systèmes surround selon le nombre d’enceintes que vous possédez. ! Des enceintes doivent être raccordées aux

canaux avant gauche et droit (L et R).

! Il est également possible de ne raccorder

qu’une seule des enceintes surround arrière

(SB), voire aucune. Choisissez votre configuration parmi les Plans [A] à [E] ci-dessous.

Important

! Speaker System doit être réglé si vous

utilisez une des liaisons figurant ci-dessous à l’exception de [A] (consultez Réglage du système d’enceintes dans le mode d’emploi sur le CD-ROM).

! Le son n’est pas restitué simultanément par

les enceintes avant en position haute, avant en position large, de la paire d’enceintes B et surround arrière. Les enceintes sollicitées sont différentes selon le signal d’entrée ou le mode d’écoute.

[A] Système surround 7.1 canaux (Avant Haut)

*Réglage par défaut

Autres liaisons d’enceintes

! Vous pouvez sélectionner vos liaisons

préférées même si vous disposez de moins de 5.1 enceintes (à l’exception des enceintes avant gauche/droite).

! Si vous ne raccordez pas de caisson de

grave, raccordez des enceintes capables de reproduire les basses fréquences sur le canal avant. (Sinon, les basses fréquences des graves étant restituées par les enceintes avant, celles-ci pourraient être endommagées.)

! Après avoir raccordé les enceintes, effectuez

la configuration Full Auto MCACC (réglage de l’environnement des enceintes). Consultez la section Obtention automatique d’un réglage sonore optimal (Full Auto MCACC) à la page 18 .

Disposition des enceintes

Référez-vous au schéma ci-dessous pour la disposition des enceintes que vous voulez raccorder.

Raccordement des enceintes

Pour chaque enceinte le récepteur comporte une borne positive (+) et une borne négative (–). Prenez soin de les faire correspondre aux bornes situées sur les enceintes.

ATTENTION

! Ces bornes d’enceintes sont soumises à

une tension DANGEREUSE. Pour éviter tout risque de décharge électrique lors du branchement ou débranchement des câbles d’enceintes, débranchez le cordon d’alimentation avant de toucher les parties non isolées.

! Assurez-vous que toute la partie dénudée du

fil d’enceinte est torsadé et inséré entièrement dans la borne d’enceinte. Si l’un des fils d’enceinte dénudés devait toucher le panneau arrière, l’alimentation pourrait être coupée par mesure de sécurité.

Raccordement des fils dénudés

ATTENTION

Assurez-vous que toutes les enceintes sont installées de manière stable. Cela permet non seulement d’améliorer la qualité sonore, mais aussi de réduire les risques de dommage ou de blessure si l’enceinte venait à tomber en raison de chocs extérieurs, tels qu’un tremblement de terre.

1 Torsadez les fils ensemble. 2 Dévissez la borne et insérez la partie

dénudée des fils.

3 Serrez la borne.

Remarque

! Pour plus d’informations sur le branchement

de l’autre extrémité des câbles d’enceinte à vos enceintes, consultez le mode d’emploi fourni avec vos enceintes.

! Utilisez un câble à fiche RCA pour raccorder

le caisson de grave. Il n’est pas possible d’utiliser des câbles d’enceintes.

Raccordement de votre équipement

Installation de votre système d’enceintes

Les enceintes avant gauche et droite sont les seules obligatoires. Notez que vos enceintes surround principales doivent toujours être raccordées par paire. Cependant, si vous le souhaitez, vous pouvez ne raccorder qu’une seule enceinte surround arrière (elle doit être raccordée à la borne surround arrière gauche).

Double amplification des enceintes

Il y a double amplification lorsque vous reliez les amplificateurs internes hautes et basses fréquences des enceintes à différents amplificateurs externes pour obtenir une meilleure répartition des fréquences. Pour cela, vos enceintes doivent supporter la double amplification (en disposant de bornes distinctes pour les hautes et les basses fréquences) et l’amélioration de la qualité du son dépendra du type d’enceintes utilisé.
