Connecting your equipment
Determining the speakers’ application
Surround sound with a strong sense of presence can be enjoyed by connecting 7 speakers and 1 subwoofer. It is also possible to achieve high sound quality using bi-amp connections and to enjoy music in other rooms using the MULTI-ZONE feature. High sound quality can be achieved with a minimum of two speakers.
• Be sure to connect speakers to the front left and right channels ( L and R ).
•The Surr Back System setting must be made if you use any of the connections shown below other than [1] (see Selecting the Surr Back system on page 21).
[1] 7.1ch surround connection (Simple connection & Best surround)
*Default setting
These connections prioritize surround sound with a speaker layout like that in a movie theater.
•Surr Back System setting: Normal
(default)
•If you have six speakers, either only connect one surround back speaker (6.1 ch surround), or connect for the 7.1-channel setting as shown on the diagram below but without the center speaker.

Other speaker connection
•Your favorite speaker connections can be selected even if you have fewer than 5.1 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 Auto MCACC (speaker environment setting) procedure (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 apart, at equal distance from the 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 tilted 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 56).
•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.

03 Connecting your equipment
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
1Twist exposed wire strands together.

Important
•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.
18
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.

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).

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 biamping 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 Surr Back System setting makes no difference.
•To bi-wire a speaker, connect two speaker cords to the speaker terminal on the receiver.
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 at the left.

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 video outputs when connecting this video source.1
If several video components are assigned to the same input function (see The Input Setup menu on page 40), the converter gives priority to HDMI, component, then composite (in that order).

Note
1• 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 (DVI HDMI) 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.
2Signal transfer is only possible when connected to a compatible component.

•If you want to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver, connect the receiver and TV with audio cables.
•Component video should give superior picture quality when compared to composite. You can also take advantage of progressive scan video (if your source and TV are both compatible), 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.

About the WMA9 Pro decoder
This unit has an on-board Windows Media™ Audio 9 Professional1 (WMA9 Pro) decoder, so it is possible to playback WMA9 Pro-encoded audio using HDMI, coaxial or optical digital connection when connected to a WMA9 Procompatible player. However, the connected DVD player, set-top box, etc. must be able to output WMA9 Pro format audio signals through a coaxial or optical digital output.

1Pull off the protective shields of both AM antenna wires.
2Push open the tabs, then insert one wire fully into each terminal, then release the tabs to secure the AM antenna wires.
3Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached stand.
To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction indicated by the arrow (fig. a) then clip the loop onto the stand (fig. b).
•If you plan to mount the AM antenna to a wall or other surface, secure the stand with screws (fig. c) before clipping the loop to the stand. Make sure the reception is clear.
4Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and in a direction giving the best reception.
5Connect the FM wire antenna in the same way as the AM loop antenna.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.
