Connecting Speakers

Placing Speakers

making Connections

Determine the locations for your speaker placement according to their manufacturer’s directions and the layout of your listening room. Use the illustration on page 12 as a guide for speaker placement.

To create the most realistic surround-sound environment possible, you should place your speakers in a circle around the listener. You should angle each speaker so it directly faces the listening position. Use the diagram below as a

guide.

Front left and right speakers and center speaker

Note

•If you’re using only one surround back speaker,

connect it to the surround back left speaker

terminals.

•Front high and surround back speakers cannot be used at the same time.

•To avoid interference with the TV picture when using a conventional TV, use only magnetically

shielded front left, right, and center speakers.

•To obtain the best surround effects, all the

speakers except the subwoofer should be full range speakers.

Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as

•

ush to the TV or monitor screen as possible. Place the center speaker between the front left and

•

right speakers and its distance should not be further from the listener than the front speakers.

Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at where

•

listener's ears would be in the main listening position.

Surround left and right speakers

Place the surround speakers approximately 60 ~

•

90 cm (24 ~ 36 inches) above on the direct left/

right side or slightly behind the ear level of a seated listener.

R-807 NETWORk AV RECEIVER

FHL

SBL SBR

Surround back left and right speakers

Place the surround back speakers at the back facing

•

forward together and closer than front speakers. When using a single surround back speaker, place it

•

at the rear center facing forward at a slightly higher

position (0 to 20 cm) than the surround speakers. We recommend installing the surround back

•

speaker(s) facing slightly. This effectively prevents the surround back channel signals from bouncing

off the TV or screen at the front center, resulting in

interference and making the sense of movement from the front to the back less sharp.

Subwoofer

Because a room’s shape and volume can have a dramatic effect on a subwoofer’s performance, you

should experiment with placement in order to nd the

location that produces the best results in your particular listening room. With that in mind, these rules will help you get started.

•Placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the amount of bass in the room.

•Placing the subwoofer in a corner generally will maximize the amount of bass in the room.

•In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the

same plane as the left and right speakers can

produce the best integration between the sound of

the subwoofer and that of the left and right speakers.

FHR

•In some rooms, the best performance comes from placing the subwoofer behind the listener. A good way to determine the best location for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room while the system is playing (putting your ears where the

subwoofer would be placed), and listen until you nd

the location where the bass performance is best. Place the subwoofer in that location.

Front height left and right speakers (Recommended for Dolby Pro logic IIz playback)

Place the front height speakers at least 1 meter

(40 inches) above the front speakers.

Be sure to connect speakers rmly and accurately

•

according to the channel (left and right) and the

polarity (+ and −). If the connections are incorrect, no sound will be produced by the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connection is incorrect, the

sound will be unnatural and tinny.

•When listening in Dolby Pro Logic IIz mode, connect

the front height speakers. To install the speakers, see “Placing Speakers” on

•

page 11.

For ROOM 2 playback, connect the ROOM

•

2 speakers. For details, see “Connecting to

Multi-Room” on page 23.

After installing the speakers, rst adjust the speaker

•

settings according to your environment and speaker layout. For details, see “Setting the Speaker”.

Caution

•Be sure to use the speakers with the impedance of 6 ohms or above.

•Do not let bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this receiver. This could damage

the main unit and/or the speakers.

•Never touch the speaker terminals while the AC input cord is connected to the wall AC outlet.

Doing so could result in electric shock.

Setting the Speaker

You will be using the following remote control buttons

to congure the main unit. For details on the speaker

setup, see page 44.

Press the remote control’s SETUP button. The

main unit’s OSD System Setup menu will appear on the TV.

Use the remote’s arrow and ENTER buttons

to select “Speaker Setup”. The Speaker Setup

menu will appear.

Select “Speaker Settings”. The Speaker Settings

menu will appear. Use the remote’s left and right arrow buttons

to select OFF, SMALL or LARGE for the Front,

Center and Surround speaker positions, depending on the speakers you have connected

to the receiver. OFF: Select this setting if you have not

connected a speaker in that position (not available for the front speakers). SmAll: Select this setting if the speaker is not

capable of producing clean, deep bass energy at output levels that match those produced by a powered subwoofer. All bass in that channel

is removed from that speaker and is sent to the subwoofer (or to the front speakers if subwoofer is set to NO). Most speakers (unless they are

large and powerful) should be considered SMALL.

lARGE: Select this setting if the speaker is

capable of producing clean, deep bass energy at output levels that match those produced by a powered subwoofer. All bass in that channel is

sent to that speaker. When you’re nished, press the remote control’s

RETURN button to return to the Speaker Setting

menu.

Turn on your TV and select the TV input.

Note

•Although you can congure the main unit using only its front-panel message display, it is much easier to use the On-Screen Display (OSD) menu system.

Note

•If your system has a subwoofer and you set

the front speakers to LARGE, the subwoofer

may only play Dolby Digital-audio signals and DTS-encoded program material that contains LFE channel information. If you set your

front speakers to LARGE and you want your

subwoofer to reproduce bass from all program material, set the Subwoofer to PLUS (see below).

•For subwoofer, select YES (if your system has a subwoofer), NO (if your system does not have a subwoofer), or PLUS (if your system has a

subwoofer, you set your front speakers to LARGE

and you want your subwoofer to reproduce bass from all program material).

You can skip the “Crossover” setting.

Select “Speaker Distance”. The Speaker

Distance menu will appear.

Measure the distance from each speaker in your

system to the listener. Set the distances. Use the remote’s left and right arrow buttons to

change the distance setting for each speaker

so that it matches the distance you wrote down

in step 8. When you’re nished, press the

remote control’s RETURN button to return to the

Speaker Setting menu.

Select “Channel Level”. The Channel Level

menu will appear. Use the remote’s left and right arrow buttons to set Test Tone to “Manual” and press the remote’s ENTER button. After the on-screen countdown you will hear test noise

About HDmI

HDMI (High Denition Multimedia Interface) supports

both audio and video on a single digital connection for use with DVD players, DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface

(DVI) in one specication. HDCP is used to protect

the digital content transmitted and received by DVI-compliant displays.

R-807 NETWORk AV RECEIVER

HDMI has the capability to support standard,

enhanced, or high-denition video plus standard to

multi-channel surround-sound audio. HDMI features include uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 2.2 gigabytes per second (with HDTV signals), one connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and communication between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.

This main unit is also compatible with the DeepColor

and x.v.Color feature (x.v.Color is trademarks of Sony

Corporation).

HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Denition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing, LLC.

Note

•Check the setup of the connected component if an image is poor or there is no sound from a component connected via the HDMI cable.

•Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit length,

etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack may be

suppressed by the connected component.

•When the connected component is not compatible with copyright protection technology (HDCP), the image and the sound from the HDMI

TV OUT jack may be distorted or may be not output. In this case, check the specication of the

connected component.

•Regardless of which input is selected for the

system, the video signal from the HDMI input jack

(BD, DVD, SAT) that was last selected is output

from the HDMI TV OUT jack.

Connecting with a non-HDmI TV

If your TV does not have an HDMI connector, or if your TV does have an HDMI connector but you are connecting some source devices with only composite video connectors, use a composite video cable (not included) to connect the composite Monitor Out connector to your TV’s composite video connector.

making Connections

Connecting Playback Components

Source devices are components from which a playback

signal originates, e.g., a Blu-ray Disc™ or DVD player; a set-top box, or HDTV tuner, etc. The receiver has several different types of input connectors for your audio and video source devices: HDMI, composite video, optical digital audio, coaxial digital audio and analog audio.

Connecting HDmI Components

If any of your source devices have HDMI connectors, using those connectors will provide the best possible video and audio performance quality. Since the HDMI cable carries both digital video and digital audio

signals, you do not have to make any additional audio

connections for devices you connect via HDMI cables. If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped

component (Blu-ray disc player, etc.), you can connect it to this receiver using a commercially available HDMI cable.

Connecting Video Components

You will need to make composite video connections

from your source devices that do not have HDMI video

connections. You will also need to make an audio

connection from the device to the main unit.
