Features
Compatibility with the Home Theater Formats
Dolby Digital, DTS Sound Decoders
These highly evolved multichannel sound formats are the heart of home theater. They deliver realistic multichannel sound that can turn any living room into a theater, reproducing all the sound effects of the original movie. The VSX-C100/C100-S has the flexibility to decode all these formats.
Dolby Pro Logic II Decoder
The VSX-C100/C100-S reproduces this industry-leading format with excellent clarity. With it you can get multichannel surround sound even from two channel and Dolby Surround sources.
Easy-to-use Remote Control
This new remote control is extremely convenient to use. One button is dedicated to one task in the control of the receiver, eliminating confusing buttons whose purpose are unclear. In addition, this remote can be used to operate a variety of other components simply by recalling the appropriate setup codes.
Easy Setup for Quick Home Use
This receiver features an automatic setup function that senses which speakers you have hooked up and automatically sets the receiver for proper surround sound. Thus, you can start enjoying home theater immediately after hooking up your speakers and components, without worrying about difficult setup procedures.
Home Theater Listening Modes
Custom Designed Listening Modes (p.35)
These modes enhance the sound of sources from movies and music to TV and video games for a more dramatic effect. These are each designed to accentuate specific sound qualities, giving the listener a wide range of possibilities.
VIRTUAL Mode (p.35)
This especially designed listening mode uses only two channels but through sound imaging imitates a full surround sound. It allows you to experience surround sound with only two speakers.
PHONES SURROUND Mode (p.35)
This new headphone mode allows the user to get a surround-like sound while listening on headphones designed to accommodate this technology.
Sound Modes (p.37)
This unit also has especially created Sound Modes that can enhance your listening experience and bring out the best in each soundtrack. Each mode is designed to bring out a specific quality of the soundtrack or balance the sound. The NATURAL corrects the frequencies for small speakers to achieve better theater-like surround sound. The MIDNIGHT listening mode allows you to obtain excellent surround sound effects even when listening at low volumes, something that was previously impossible. The QUIET mode provides good sound by smoothing out harsh noises in the soundtrack. This is achieved by reducing the bass and treble. The BRIGHT mode flattens out the total frequency output to match the charactersics of the front speakers. The S.BASS mode gives you added bass for that driving punch that really livens up your music or makes a film more realistic.
The Energy-saving Design
This unit is designed to use less than 1 W of energy when the receiver is in standby mode.

Quick Start Guide
Home Theater: The Basics
Most consumers are used to using stereo equipment to listen to music but many people are not used to home theater systems that give you many more options when listening to soundtracks. In fact, home theater is not really complicated and this little guide should give you an understanding of basics.
The main reasons why it seems so difficult is that there are three different factors involved in home theater and each will contribute to what kind of sound you get.
These factors are:
1)The equipment you are using for you home theater set up. Particularly important is the number of speakers you are using. We call this your speaker configuration. The default settings should be fine in most cases.
2)The 'source' material you are using. This is the actual product (like a DVD) or broadcast (like cable TV) you are listening to/watching. We call this the source.
3)The last factor is the listening mode you choose on the VSX-C100/C100-S receiver. These are explained below and in subsequent chapters but most likely the default setting will be fine.
Let's start with the home theater set up you have in your home.
Your Home System
The heart of your system is the VSX-C100/C100-S receiver and it is very flexible in getting you theater-like surround sound. You can use this receiver with anywhere from two to five speakers (front left, front right, center, surround left and right) and a subwoofer to get home theater surround sound. However we recommend you use five speakers. If you only have two speakers choose the Listening mode that offers surround sound for your home setup. Also, a DVD player is essential for home theater and you can also hook up satellite or cable TV tuner to this receiver and get a more home theater like sound from those programs.
The Source Material
DVDs have become the basic source material for home theater because they offer excellent sound and picture quality, allow users to choose the movies they want, and are easy to store, etc. You can also enjoy home theater with other sources, such as digital satellite TV, cable TV and VHS videotapes. The important part here is all these sources have soundtracks recorded on them with various kinds of technology (this is called the sound encoding). Home theater sources are recorded (encoded) with multiple sound channels, that is discrete parts of the overall sound. CDs (which are stereo sources) work the same way but they only have two sound channels, the left channel and the right channel. These two channels carry different parts of the soundtrack and mix together when you hear it to make an enjoyable, stereo sound. The same idea applies to home theater sources except home theater sources are recorded with multichannels, that is, more than two channels. For example, Dolby Pro Logic encoding has four channels (front left, front right, center and a single channel for both surround speakers), Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital and DTS encoding usually have six channels (front left, front right, center, surround left and right and a channel that powers the subwoofer). Since the subwoofer channel is only for bass sounds this multichannel set up has been named 5.1 channel sound. These multiple channels are what create a surround sound effect and give you a similar experience of that of a movie theater. It is important you consult the manual that came with your DVD player as well to make sure the player is outputting a surround soundtrack and all the other settings are appropriate for home theater.
The Listening Modes
This receiver has many different listening modes and they are designed to cover all the speaker configurations and types of sources you might be using. In general, if you follow the recommend advice and have five speakers hooked up in most cases the AUTO listening mode is the easiest way to get realistic home theater sound. This is the default setting so you don't have to do anything. Other possibilities (like listening to a stereo CD with all five speakers or, conversely taking a stereo source and it getting multichannel home theater-like sound) are explained in Listening modes (page 35).
These are the three basic factors that contribute to your home theater sound. The easiest thing is to hook up five speakers and simply play your DVDs with AUTO mode. This will give you realistic and enjoyable home theater sound.

Quick Start Guide
No Frills Setup
This receiver was designed with the easiest possible setup in mind so if you just want to hook up your equipment and start enjoying quality home theater movies follow the four steps below and use these easy settings on the VSX-C100/ C100-S. In most cases you can leave the receiver in the default settings.
Default Settings:
•Speaker Setting: Automatically sensed by the receiver
•Input Setting: DVD
•Signal Select: AUTO
•Listening Mode: AUTO
•Sound Mode: NATURAL
1) Hook up your DVD player, speakers, subwoofer and TV.
Connect your DVD player to this unit using either the coaxial digital terminal or the optical digital terminals, depending on which type of digital terminal your DVD has. The quality of these two types of connection is the same so it’s simply a matter of matching like with like, and you don’t need to do both. It is easiest, however, if you follow this receiver’s default settings and connect your DVD player to coaxial terminal. If your DVD player does not have an coaxial terminal, use one of the optical terminal to hook it up to this receiver. (In this case you need to assign the DVD function to that terminal. See p.33 in order to do this.) Follow the diagram below to hook up your DVD player to either the coaxial or optical terminal(s). Then, hook up the speakers you want to use with this receiver. This receiver can be used with just two speakers but it’s better to have five speakers to get accurate surround sound. See pages 18-19 for more details on connecting your speakers. Next, hook up your powered subwoofer, if you have one. For all speakers make sure to connect the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals on the receiver and speakers with the same wire (positive to positive, negative to negative).
Before hooking up your speakers affix the color-coded sticker with the appropriate name (for example, “FRONT R”) to the speaker wire so you always know which speaker that wire is connected to.
While pressing down the speaker tab push the speaker wire into the terminal and release speaker terminal tab.

Automatic speaker setup (receiver automatically configures Front, Center, Surround speakers and Subwoofer)
Once you have completed the above tasks, the receiver will automatically detect which speakers you have connected and configure your speaker settings according to that. You don’t have to do anything. This setup establishes the size and configuration of the speaker system you have connected and is the easy way to setup your speakers for surround sound. If you don’t have surround speakers or want to make more exact speaker settings, go to page 29.
The Automatic speaker setup will give you acceptable surround sound.
English
2) Turn on the power on the receiver, your DVD player, your powered subwoofer and TV.
• Make sure your TV is set to the receiver. If it is not, check the input jack this receiver is hooked up to on your TV and consult the manual that came with the TV to figure out the proper TV setting.
• Confirm that DVD appears in the receiver’s display, indicating that the receiver is set to the DVD input. If it does not, press the DVD button to set the receiver to DVD input.
3) Confirm the settings on your DVD player are correct for the source you want to play.
Make sure your DVD player is outputting a digital signal and choose the soundtrack (Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.) that you want to hear. If you are unsure about your DVD player’s settings, see page 26 for more information and/or consult the manual that came with your DVD player.
4) Play a source (like a DVD) and adjust the volume to your liking.
You are now ready to experience home theater with your new surround sound system.

Advanced/Customized Settings
If you want to customize your home theater to your environment, equipment or personal tastes, many settings are available. One of the most important advanced settings, called Room Setup, establishes the distances between your speakers and your normal listening position (as well as volume levels, etc.). Making this setting should improve your surround sound. Room Setup is explained on page 28. After that you could go on to fine tune your surround sound for maximum sound quality. These settings start on page 29.
The VSX-C100/C100-S has many different listening modes to accommodate many different kinds of sources, speaker configurations and sound reproduction. Experiment with these features to figure out what suits your tastes.
The listening mode explanations and settings start on page 35.
The above is a quick guide to getting you started with your home theater system and a few setup suggestions. It is a good idea, however, to read this manual in its entirety so you understand what you can do with the VSX-C100/C100- S and the possibilities of home theater in general. You may find many hints in these explanations that help you get better sound and let you operate all your equipment more effectively.

–in places where there is a vibration or other movement
–in places that are very dusty
–in places that have hot fumes or oils (such as a kitchen)
•Don’t place anything on top of the receiver except for a Pioneer DV-353/355/251/250/444/533-K/3310/ 5310KD DVD player. If you do place one of these pieces of equipment on top of the receiver be sure to leave the ventilation space over it as prescribed above.
•The receiver may become hot while in use, please take care around it.
When Making Cable
Connections
Be careful not to arrange cables in a manner that bends the cables over the top of this unit. If the cables are laid on top of the unit, the magnetic field produced by the transformers in this unit may cause a humming noise to come from the speakers.
English
Ventilation
•When installing this unit, make sure to leave space around the unit for ventilation to improve heat dispersal (at least 20 cm at the top, 50 cm at the rear, and 10 cm at each side). If not enough space is provided between the unit and walls or other equipment, heat will build up inside, interfering with performance and/or causing malfunctions. See below for exceptions to this.
•If using a rack to hold the receiver make sure the back of the rack and the left side are open.
•Also, if you’re using a case with glass doors, leave the glass doors open when using the receiver.
•Do not place on a thick carpet, bed, sofa or fabric having a thick pile. Do not cover the receiver with fabric or other covering. Anything that blocks ventilation will cause the internal temperature to rise, which may lead to breakdown or fire hazard.
Cassette deck placement
Depending on where the cassette deck is placed, noise may occur during playback of your cassette deck which is caused by leakage flux from the transformer in the receiver. If you experience noise, move the cassette deck farther away from the receiver.
Storing optical cable
When storing optical cable, coil loosely as shown below. The cable may be damaged if bent around sharp corners.

Connecting a Digital Tuner/Set Top Box
If you have an external digital tuner (like a set top box for satellite or cable TV) you need to connect it to either the optical digital terminals or the coaxial digital terminal in order to play digital cable/satellite broadcasting. The quality of these two types of connection is the same so it’s simply a matter of matching like with like. It is easiest, however, if you follow this receiver’s default settings and connect your cable/satellite tuner (or TV/SAT as it’s called on the remote control) to optical terminal 1. If your TV/SAT does not have an optical terminal, use the coaxial terminal to hook it up (consult the DVD hook up information on the previous page). In this case you need to assign the TV/SAT function to that terminal. See p.33 in order to do this. Follow the diagram below to hook up your TV/SAT to either the optical or coaxial terminal.
Make sure you use a digital connection as well as an analog one for the audio on the cable/satellite tuner, as pictured below.
The basic default settings for the DIGITAL IN terminals are as follows: COAX: DVD; OPT. 1: TV/SAT; OPT. 2: DVR. If you need to use the coaxial terminal for your TV/SAT, then assign the coaxial terminal to TV/SAT. The digital terminals settings change to: COAX: TV/SAT; OPT. 1: DVD; OPT. 2: DVR. (see p.33)

Connecting Video Components
Connect your video components to the terminals as shown next page.
If you have a Digital Video Recorder (a DVR) you need to connect it digitally to either the optical digital terminals or the coaxial digital terminal in order to play and/or record multichannel sound. The quality of these two types of connection is the same so it’s simply a matter of matching like with like and using the available terminal(s) after you’ve hooked up your DVD player and cable/satellite/TV tuner.
Basically the easiest way to connect a DVR is to follow this receiver’s default settings and connect your cable/satellite tuner (or TV/SAT as it’s called on the remote control) and DVR to optical terminals 1 and 2 respectively, and connect the DVD to the coaxial terminal.
If this isn’t possible due to the types of terminals each component is equipped with, then you need to figure out which component will be used for the coaxial terminal and assign it properly (see p. 33). After that follow the optical terminal defaults (as below).
If you connected the coaxial terminal to DVD and thus left it on the default DVD setting the optical terminals default settings are:
OPT. 1: TV/SAT OPT. 2: DVR
If you assigned the coaxial terminal to TV/SAT the optical terminals default settings are: OPT. 1: DVD
OPT. 2: DVR
All video decks (both DVRs and VCRs) should be hooked up with analog connections as well. If you want to record programs it is necessary to connect to the DVR/VCR IN AUDIO terminals as shown next page.

A full complement of five speakers is shown here but, naturally, everyone’s home setup will vary. Simply connect the speakers you have in the manner described below. The receiver will sense which speakers you have hooked up. The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (called “Front” speakers in the diagram) but we recommend you use five speakers. If you don’t hook up surround speakers you need to adjust the Listening mode settings (see p. 35).
Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right terminal and the speaker on the left to the left terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+/–) terminals on the receiver match those on the speakers.
• Use speakers with a nominal impedance of 6 Ω to 16 Ω .
Before hooking up your speakers affix the color-coded stickers with the appropriate names (for example, “FRONT R”) to the speaker wire so you always know which speaker each wire is connected to.
