Hints on the speaker placement
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 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
higher than your ears and titled slight
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.
• If the surround speakers cannot be set
directly to the side of the listening position
with a 7.1-channel system, the surround
effect can be enhanced by turning off the
Up Mix function (see Setting the Up Mix function on page 38).
• 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.
• Place the left and right front height
speakers at least one meter directly above
the left and right front speakers.
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.
Important
• To connect the surround back or front
height speakers, an additional amplifier is
required. Connect the additional amplifier
to the PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT HEIGHT outputs of this unit and connect
the surround back or front height speakers
to the additional amplifier (see Connect the surround back or front height speakers
on page 19).
The Pre Out setting must be set if the above
connections are performed. Select
SURR.BACK if the surround back speaker
is connected and HEIGHT if the front
height speaker is connected (If neither the
surround back speaker nor the front height
speaker is connected, either setting will
suffice) (see The Pre Out Setting on
page 47).

Connecting the speakers
The receiver will work with just two stereo
speakers (the front speakers in the diagram)
but using at least three speakers is
recommended, and a complete setup is best
for surround sound.
Make sure you connect the speaker on the
right to the right (R) terminal and the speaker
on the left to the left (L) terminal. Also make
sure the positive and negative (+/–) terminals
on the receiver match those on the speakers.
You can use the speakers connected to the B
speaker terminals to listen to stereo playback
in another room. See Switching the speaker system on page 20 for the listening options
with this setup.
You can use speakers with a normal
impedance between 6 Ω and 16 Ω.
However, note that only the front speakers are
set to a value between 12 Ω and 16 Ω if you
select SPAB in Switching the speaker system
on page 20.
Be sure to complete all connections before
connecting this unit to the AC power source.

Using the component video jacks
Component video should deliver superior
picture quality when compared to composite
video. A further advantage (if your source and TV
are both compatible) is progressive-scan video,
which delivers a very stable, flicker-free picture.
See the manuals that came with your TV and
source component to check whether they are
compatible with progressive-scan video.
•If necessary, assign the component video
inputs to the input source you’ve connected.
This only needs to be done if you didn’t connect
according to the following defaults:
• COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1 – BD
• COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2 – DVD
See The Input Assign menu on page 46 for
more on this.
• For the audio connection, refer to
Connecting your component with no HDMI
terminal

Chapter 4:
Basic Setup
Automatically setting up for
surround sound (MCACC)
The Auto Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration
(MCACC) setup measures the acoustic
characteristics of your listening area, taking
into account ambient noise, speaker size and
distance, and tests for both channel delay and
channel level. After you have set up the
microphone provided with your system, the
receiver uses the information from a series of
test tones to optimize the speaker settings and
equalization for your particular room.
CAUTION
• The test tones used in the Auto MCACC
Setup are output at high volume.
Important
• The OSD will not appear if you have
connected using the HDMI output to your
TV. Use component or composite
connections for system setup.
• The Auto MCACC Setup will overwrite any
existing speaker settings you’ve made.
• Before using the Auto MCACC Setup, the
iPod USB function should not be selected

Using the Sound Retriever
When audio data is removed during the
compression process, sound quality often
suffers from an uneven sound image. The
Sound Retriever feature employs new DSP
technology that helps bring CD quality sound
back to compressed 2-channel audio by
restoring sound pressure and smoothing
jagged artifacts left over after compression.
2
Better sound using Phase Control
This receiver’s Phase Control feature uses
phase correction measures to make sure your
sound source arrives at the listening position in
phase, preventing unwanted distortion and/or
coloring of the sound (see illustration below).
During multichannel playback, LFE (LowFrequency Effects) signals as well as lowfrequency signals in each channel are
assigned to the subwoofer or other the
subwoofer and the most appropriate speaker.
At least in theory, however, this type of
processing involves a group delay that varies
with frequency, resulting in phase distortion
where the low-frequency sound is delayed or
muffled by the conflict with other channels.
With the Phase Control mode switched on, this
receiver can reproduce powerful bass sound
without deteriorating the quality of the original
sound (see illustration below).

Using surround back channel
processing
You can have the receiver automatically use
6.1 or 7.1 decoding for 6.1 encoded sources
(for example, Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES), or
you can choose to always use 6.1 or 7.1
decoding (for example, with 5.1 encoded
material). With 5.1 encoded sources, a
surround back channel will be generated, but
the material may sound better in the 5.1
format for which it was originally encoded (in
which case, you can simply switch surround
back channel processing off).
• With a 7.1-channel surround system,
audio signals that have undergone matrix
decoding processing through surround
back channel processing to which the Up
Mix function is added are output from the
surround back speakers.
RECEIVER

RECEIVER
Matrix decoding processing for
1 Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving proper sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’, they crest
and trough together, resulting in increased amplitude, clarity and presence of the sound signal. If a crest of a wave meets a
trough (as shown in the upper section of the diagram above) then the sound will be ‘out of phase’ and an unreliable sound
image will be produced.
• If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the plus (+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually feel when
PHASE CONTROL is set to ON on this receiver depends on the type of your subwoofer. Set your subwoofer to maximize the
effect. It is also recommended you try changing the orientation or the place of your subwoofer.
• Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to OFF. If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the cutoff
frequency to a higher value.
• If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not have a maximized PHASE CONTROL effect.
• The PHASE CONTROL mode cannot be set to ON in the following cases:
– When the PURE DIRECT mode is switched on.
– When the headphones are connected.
2 You can’t use Acoustic Calibration EQ with Stream Direct mode and it has no effect with headphones.

Choosing the input signal
On this receiver, it is possible to switch the
input signals for the different inputs as
described below.
• Press SIGNAL SEL to select the input
signal corresponding to the source
component.
When DIGITAL (C1/O1/O2) or HDMI (H) is
selected and the selected audio input is not
provided, A (analog) is automatically selected.
Each press cycles through the following:
• A – Selects the analog inputs.
• DIGITAL – Selects the digital input. The
coaxial 1 input is selected for C1, and the
optical 1 or 2 audio input is selected for
O1 or O2.
• HDMI – Selects an HDMI signal. H can be
selected for BD, DVD, TV/SAT or DVR/VCR
input. For other inputs, HDMI cannot be
selected.
When set to DIGITAL or HDMI, 2 lights when
a Dolby Digital signal is input, and DTS lights
when a DTS signal is input.
When the HDMI is selected, the A and
DIGITAL indicators are off (see page 12).

Using the headphone
• Insert the headphone into the PHONES
jack.
The sound is heard from the headphone and
no sound is heard from the speakers
connected to this receiver. The listening mode
when the sound is heard from the headphone
can be selected only from STEREO or ALC.
1 • When digital input (optical or coaxial) is selected, this receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32 kHz to 96 kHz) and
DTS (including DTS 96 kHz / 24 bit) digital signal formats. The compatible signals via the HDMI terminals are: Dolby Digital,
DTS, SACD (DSD 2 ch), PCM (32 kHz to 192 kHz sampling frequencies), Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-EXPRESS, DTSHD Master Audio and DVD Audio (including 192 kHz). With other digital signal formats, set to A (analog).
• You may get digital noise when a LD or CD player compatible with DTS is playing an analog signal. To prevent noise, make
the proper digital connections (page 23) and set the signal input to C1/O1/O2 (DIGITAL).
• Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.
2 When the HDMI option in Setting the Audio options on page 38 is set to THRU, the sound will be heard through your TV, not
from this receiver.

• Subwoofer – LFE signals and bass
frequencies of channels set to SMALL are
output from the subwoofer when YES is
selected (see notes below). Choose the
PLUS setting if you want the subwoofer to
output bass sound continuously or you
want deeper bass (the bass frequencies
that would normally come out the front and
center speakers are also routed to the
subwoofer). If you did not connect a
subwoofer choose NO (the bass
frequencies are output from other
speakers).
3 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Tip
• If you have a subwoofer and like lots of
bass, it may seem logical to select LARGE
for your front speakers and PLUS for the
subwoofer. This may not, however, yield the
best bass results. Depending on the
speaker placement of your room you may
actually experience a decrease in the
amount of bass due to low frequency
cancellations. In this case, try changing
the position or direction of speakers. If you
can’t get good results, listen to the bass
response with it set to PLUS and YES or the
front speakers set to LARGE and SMALL
alternatively and let your ears judge which
sounds best. If you’re having problems, the
easiest option is to route all the bass
sounds to the subwoofer by selecting
SMALL for the front speakers.
1 • You can only adjust the Front Height setting when Pre Out Setting is set to Height.
• If the surround speakers are set to NO, the front height speakers will automatically be set to NO.
2 You can only adjust the Surr. Back setting when Pre Out Setting is set to Surr. Back.
3 • If the surround speakers are set to NO, the surround back speakers will automatically be set to NO.
• If you select one surround back speaker only, make sure that additional amplifier is hooked up to the PRE OUT L (Single)
terminal.

Saving station presets
If you often listen to a particular radio station,
it’s convenient to have the receiver store the

from the built-in tuner, or from an audio or
video source connected to the receiver (such
as a CD player or TV).
Keep in mind you can’t make a digital
recording from an analog source or vice-versa,
so make sure the components you are
recording to/from are hooked up in the same
way (see Connecting your equipment on
page 16 for more on connections).
If you want to record a video source, you also
need to use the same type of connection for the
source as for the recorder. For example, you
can’t record a component hooked up to
composite video jacks with a recorder hooked
up to the component video outputs (see
page 26 for more on video connections).

Avant de commencer
Vérification des accessoires
livrés avec l’appareil
Veuillez vérifier que les accessoires suivants
sont livrés avec l’appareil :
• Microphone de configuration
• Télécommande
• Piles à anode sèche (AAA IEC R03) x2
• Antenne cadre AM
• Antenne filaire FM
• Câble iPod
• Cordon d’alimentation

• Ce mode d’emploi
Mise en place des piles
Les piles de la télécommande fournies avec
l’appareil permettent d’effectuer les premières
opérations ; il est possible qu’elles ne durent
pas très longtemps. Nous recommandons
l’usage de piles alcalines, dont la durée de vie
est supérieure.
ATTENTION
Une mauvaise utilisation des piles peut
provoquer des accidents tels que fuites ou
explosions. Veuillez observer les
recommandations suivantes :
• N’utilisez jamais des piles neuves et
usagées dans le même appareil.
• Insérez les piles en respectant les
indications de polarité situées à l’intérieur
du boîtier.
• Des piles de même forme peuvent avoir
des voltages différents. N’utilisez jamais
des piles de voltage différent dans le même
appareil.
• Au moment d’éliminer les piles usagées,
veuillez respecter les réglementations
gouvernementales ou les
recommandations publiques relatives à la
protection de l’environnement en vigueur
dans votre pays ou région.
• N’utilisez ni ne conservez les piles sous la
lumière directe du soleil ou dans un
endroit excessivement chaud, comme une
voiture ou à proximité d’un appareil de
chauffage. Les piles risqueraient de fuir, de
surchauffer, d’exploser ou de s’enflammer.
Ceci pourrait aussi réduire la durée de vie
et les performances des piles.
Installation du récepteur
• Lors de l’installation de l’appareil, assurezvous que ce dernier est posé sur une
surface plane et stable.
N’installez pas l’appareil dans les endroits
suivants :
– sur un téléviseur couleur (les images à
l’écran pourraient être déformées)
– à proximité d’une platine à cassettes (ou d’un
appareil qui produit un champ magnétique). Le
son pourrait s’en trouver affecté.
– à la lumière directe du soleil
– à l’humidité
– à des températures extrêmes
– en présence de vibrations ou autres
mouvements
– à la poussière
– à la fumée ou aux émanations graisseuses

Ventilation
Récepteur
40 cm
En installant cet appareil, veuillez vous assurer
de bien laisser un espace de ventilation
suffisant autour afin de permettre une meilleur
dispersion de la chaleur (au moins 40 cm sur le
dessus). Si l’espace entre l’appareil et le mur
ou un autre appareil est insuffisant, la chaleur
s’accumulera à l’intérieur, ce qui peut
amoindrir sa performance et/ou provoquer des
dysfonctionnements.
Le coffret est pourvu de fentes et d’ouvertures
pour permettre une bonne ventilation et pour
empêcher la surchauffe. Pour éviter tout risque
d’incendie, ne rien placer directement sur
l’appareil, s’assurer que les ouvertures ne
soient jamais bloquées ou couvertes (par des
journaux, des nappes ou des rideaux), et ne
pas utiliser l’appareil sur un tapis épais ou sur
un lit.

Installation des enceintes
Un système surround de type 5.1 peut être obtenu en connectant les enceintes avant gauche et
droite (L/R), l’enceinte centrale (C), les enceintes surround gauche et droite (SL/SR) et le
subwoofer (SW).
De plus, à l’aide d’un amplificateur externe, vous pouvez connecter les enceintes surround
gauche et droite (SBL/SBR) et les enceintes avant-haut gauche et droite (FHL/FHR) pour réaliser
un système surround de type 7.1.
• Vous pouvez aussi connecter une enceinte surround arrière (SB) afin d’obtenir un système
surround à 6.1 canaux.
Pour obtenir le meilleur son surround possible, installez vos enceintes conformément à
l’illustration ci-dessous.
L
a. Cette disposition est possible uniquement lorsque l’amplificateur supplémentaire est raccordé à l’appareil
et que les enceintes surround arrière ou surround avant-haut sont raccordées à l’amplificateur. Pour plus de
détails, consultez la section Connectez les enceintes surround arrière ou surround avant-haut à la page 19.

Conseils d’installation des enceintes
L’emplacement des enceintes dans la pièce
d’écoute a une grande influence sur la qualité
du son obtenu. Les conseils suivants vous
permettront d’obtenir le meilleur son avec
votre système.
• Le caisson de basses peut être placé sur le
sol. L’idéal est de placer les autres
enceintes au niveau de vos oreilles en
position d’écoute. Il est déconseillé de
poser les enceintes sur le sol (à l’exception
du caisson de graves) ou de les installer
très haut en position murale.
• Pour obtenir un effet stéréo optimal,
écartez les enceintes avant de 2 à 3 mètres
en les plaçant à égale distance du
téléviseur.
• Si vous prévoyez de placer les enceintes à
côté d’un téléviseur à écran cathodique,
utilisez des enceintes protégées contre les
interférences électromagnétiques, ou
placez les enceintes à une distance
suffisante de l’écran.
• Si vous utilisez une enceinte centrale,
placez les enceintes avant à un angle plus
grand. Sinon, placez-les à un angle plus
étroit.
• Placez l’enceinte centrale au-dessus ou en
dessous du téléviseur de sorte que le son
du canal central semble provenir de l’écran
du téléviseur. Assurez-vous également que
l’enceinte centrale ne traverse pas la ligne
formée par le bord d’attaque des enceintes
avant gauche et droite.
• Il vaut mieux placer les enceintes de
manière à réaliser un angle ouvert vers la
position d’écoute. L’angle dépend de la
taille de la pièce. Utilisez un angle inférieur
pour les pièces plus grandes.
• Les enceintes surround et surround arrière
doivent être placées 60 cm à 90 cm plus
haut que vos oreilles et légèrement
inclinées vers le bas. Assurez-vous que les
enceintes ne sont pas face à face. Pour les
signaux DVD-Audio, les enceintes doivent
être plus rapprochées de l’auditeur que
lors de la lecture sur un appareil de cinéma
à domicile.
• Si les enceintes surround ne peuvent pas
être placées directement à côté de la
position d’écoute dans un système à
7.1 canaux, l’effet surround pourra être
amélioré en désactivant la fonction Up Mix
(voir la section Réglage de la fonction Up Mix à la page 38).
• Essayez de placer les enceintes surround à
la même distance de la position d’écoute
que les enceintes avant et centrale. Sinon,
l’effet de son surround sera affaibli.
• Placez les enceintes avant-haut gauche et
droite à au moins un mètre à la verticale
au-dessus des enceintes avant gauche et
droite.
ATTENTION
• Assurez-vous que toutes les enceintes sont
correctement installées. Ceci permet non
seulement d’améliorer la qualité du son,
mais aussi de réduire les risques de
dommages ou de blessures, en empêchant
les enceintes d’être renversées ou de
tomber en cas de choc externe ou de
secousse telle qu’un tremblement de terre.
Important
• Vous devez disposer d’un amplificateur
supplémentaire pour raccorder les
enceintes surround arrière ou surround
avant-haut. Raccordez l’amplificateur
supplémentaire aux sorties PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT HEIGHT de cet
appareil et raccordez les enceintes
surround arrière ou les enceintes surround
avant-haut à l’amplificateur
supplémentaire (voir la section Connectez
les enceintes surround arrière ou surround
avant-haut à la page 19).
Les paramètres Pre Out doivent être
configurés lorsque les raccordements cidessus sont réalisés. Sélectionnez
SURR.BACK dans le cas où les enceintes
surround arrière sont connectées et
HEIGHT lorsque les enceintes surround
avant-haut sont raccordées (Si aucune des
enceintes surround arrière et surround
avant-haut ne sont connectées, n’importe
quelle option convient) (voir la section
Configuration de l’option Pre Out à la
page 47).

Système d’enceintes B
Le récepteur fonctionnera avec seulement
deux enceintes stéréo (les enceintes avant sur
le schéma), mais il est recommandé d’en
utiliser au moins trois ; une configuration
complète de huit enceintes est cependant
idéale pour la production du son surround.
Vérifiez que l’enceinte droite est raccordée à la
borne droite (R) et que l’enceinte gauche est
raccordée à la borne gauche (L). Assurez-vous
également que les bornes positive et négative
(+/–) du récepteur sont reliées aux bornes
positive et négative des enceintes.
Vous pouvez utiliser les enceintes raccordées
aux bornes d’enceintes B pour obtenir une
reproduction stéréo dans une autre pièce.
Pour plus d’informations sur les options
d’écoute avec cette configuration, consultez la
section Permutation du système d’enceintes à
la page 20.
Vous pouvez utiliser des enceintes ayant une
impédance normale comprise entre 6 Ω et
16 Ω.
Notez toutefois que seules les enceintes avant
sont réglées sur une valeur comprise entre
12 Ω et 16 Ω si vous avez sélectionné SPAB à
la section Permutation du système d’enceintes
à la page 20.
Assurez-vous que tous les branchements ont
été effectués correctement avant de raccorder
cet appareil au secteur.

Raccordements des câbles
Veillez à ne pas plier les câbles par dessus
l’appareil (conformément à l’illustration). Dans
ce cas, le champ magnétique produit par les
transformateurs de l’appareil pourrait
provoquer le ronflement des enceintes.
Important
• Avant un raccordement ou une
modification de raccordement, mettez
l’appareil hors tension et débranchez le
cordon d’alimentation de la prise secteur.
• Avant de débrancher le cordon
d’alimentation, mettez l’appareil en veille.
Câbles HDMI
Les signaux vidéo et audio peuvent être
transmis simultanément via un seul câble.
Dans le cas où le lecteur et le téléviseur sont
connectés via cet appareil, utilisez des câbles
HDMI pour les deux connexions.
3
Veillez à raccorder la borne dans le sens qui
convient.
1 La sortie du subwoofer dépend des réglages effectués à la section Réglage des enceintes à la page 43. Toutefois, si SPB est
sélectionné dans les réglages ci-dessus, le subwoofer n’émet aucun son (le canal LFE n’est pas remixé).
2 Vous pouvez utiliser des enceintes ayant une impédance normale comprise entre 6 Ω et 16 Ω. Notez toutefois que seules les
enceintes avant sont réglées sur une valeur comprise entre 12 Ω et 16 Ω si vous avez sélectionné SPAB.
3 • Réglez le paramètre HDMI (voir la section Réglage des options audio à la page 38) sur THRU (THROUGH) et le signal d’entrée
(voir la section Choix du signal d’entrée à la page 41) sur HDMI si vous souhaitez entendre la sortie audio HDMI de votre
téléviseur ou téléviseur à écran plat (aucun son ne sera transmis par ce récepteur).
• Si le signal vidéo n’apparaît sur votre téléviseur, essayez d’ajuster les réglages de la résolution de votre composant ou écran.
Notez que certains composants (par exemple les consoles de jeux vidéo) ont des résolutions qui ne peuvent pas être affichées.
Dans ce cas, utilisez une connexion composite (analogique).
• Lorsque le signal vidéo HDMI est 480i, 480p, 576i ou 576p, il est impossible de recevoir le son Multi Ch PCM et HD.
