■HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) connection : (*)

• You can connect the source component (DVD player, etc.) to the display component (TV, projector, etc.) through this receiver

with using a commercially available HDMI cord.

• The HDMI connection can carry uncompressed digital video signals and digital audio signals.

• The HDMI video stream signals (video signals) are theoretically compatible with DVI-D. When connecting to a TV monitor,

etc., equipped with DVI-D connector, it is possible to connect using a commercially available HDMI-DVI converter cord. Since the HDMI-to-DVI connection cannot carry any audio signals, set the HDMI AUDIO OUT to AMP to hear the HDMI digital audio signals on this receiver.(For details, refer to "When selecting the HDMI AUDIO OUT" on page 42.)

ENGLISH

■Copyright protection system

• This unit supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection), technology to protect copyright of digital video signals

against illegal duplication. HDCP must also be supported on the components connected to this unit.

• HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI licensing

LLC.

■Notes :

• Among the components that support HDMI, some components can control other components via the HDMI connector.

For details on the HDMI function, refer to “CONFIRMING THE HDMI FUNCTION” on page 28 and “SETTING THE HDMI” on page 42.

• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be limited by the

component that is connected.

• The video signals will not be output properly if a component incompatible with HDCP is connected.

• If the resolutions of the video signals which are output from the MONITOR OUTs and your monitor TV are not matched, the

picture is not clear, natural or displayed. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on the source component (BD player, etc.) to one which the monitor TV can handle. (For details, refer to the operating instructions of the source component.)

• When you want to enjoy only the picture on your TV, not the sound, you should set the HDMI AUDIO OUT to AMP not to

output the digital audio signal from the HDMI MONITOR OUT of this receiver. (For details, refer to "When selecting the HDMI AUDIO OUT" on page 42.)

3. CONNECTING AUDIO COMPONENTS

• The TAPE IN/OUT jacks can be connected to audio recording equipment such as a tape deck, an MD recorder, etc.

4. CONNECTING DIGITAL INS

• The OPTICAL and the COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTs of the

components that are connected to CD, VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2 of this unit can be connected to these DIGITAL INs.

• A digital input should be connected to the components such as a

CD player, DVD player, etc. capable of outputting DTS Digital Surround, Dolby Digital or PCM format digital signals, etc.

• For details, refer to the operating instructions of the component

connected.

• When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connection, be sure to use

a 75Ω COAXIAL cord, not a conventional AUDIO cord.

• Some of the commercially available optical fiber cords cannot be

used for the equipment. If there is an optical fiber cord which cannot be connected to your equipment, consult your dealer or nearest service organization.

■Note :

• Be sure to make either a OPTICAL or a COAXIAL DIGITAL

connection on each component. (You don’t need to do both.)

■Digital input default settings

• If you connect the DIGITAL INs to your components, it is easier to do so following the default settings.

• If your DIGITAL connections are different from default settings, you should assign the DIGITAL INs you used with the “When

selecting the AUDIO ASSIGN” procedure on page 33.

• The default settings are as follows :

OPTICAL IN : VIDEO 1, COAX 1 IN : VIDEO 2, COAX 2 IN : CD

6. CONNECTING SPEAKERS

• Be sure to connect speakers firmly and correctly

according to the channel(left and right) and the polarity (+ and -). If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connection is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

ENGLISH

• For installing the speakers, refer to "Speaker placement"

on page 9.

• After installing the speakers, first adjust the speaker

settings according to your environment and speaker

layout. (For details, refer to "SETTING THE SPEAKER SETUP" on page 34.)

Caution :

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

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

■Connecting speaker wire

1. Strip away approx. 10 mm (3/8 inch) of wire insulation, then twist the wire ends tight.

7. AC INPUT CORD

• Plug the cord into a wall AC outlet.

8. TERMINAL FOR UPGRADES

• This terminal may be used in the future to update the operating software so that it will be able to support new digital audio formats, etc.

■Note :

• Programming for upgrades requires specialized programming knowledge and for that reason we recommend that it only be

done by qualified installers.

2. Loosen by turning the speaker terminal counterclockwise.

3. Insert the bare part of the wire.

4. Tighten by turning it clockwise.

RD-6506(G)_ENG_110330_RD-6506(G)_ENG 2011-04-14 오전 9:29 페이지 9

Speaker placement

Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your room and the wall coverings, etc. The typical example of speaker placement and recommendations are as follows :

■Front left and right speakers and center speaker

• Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as flush with TV or monitor screen as possible.

• Place the center speaker between the front left and right speakers and no further from the listening position than the front speakers.

• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the location of the listener’s ears when at the main listening position.

■Surround left and right speakers

• Place the surround speakers approximately 1 meter (40 inches) above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.

■Subwoofer

• The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.

Place a subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.

ENGLISH

■Notes :

• When using a conventional TV, to avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front left and right and center speakers.

• To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except the subwoofer should be full range speakers.

2. Press the CURSOR UP(▲)/DOWN(▼) buttons

to select the desired parameter.

■When selecting the "DRC (Dynamic Range Compression)"

• This function compresses the dynamic range of

previously specified parts of the Dolby Digital sound track (with extremly high volume) to minimize the difference in volume between the specified and non-specified parts. This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track when watching movies at night at low levels.

■Note :

• In some Dolby Digital softwares, DRC setting may not be

valid.

• Each time these buttons are pressed, the parameter mode changes as follows:

→ "DRC" ↔ "PANO" ↔"C.WIDTH" ↔ "DIMEN" ←

(Dynamic Range (Panorama) (Center width (Dimension

Compression) control) control)

■When selecting the "PANO (Panorama)"

This mode extends the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for an exciting "wraparound" effect with side wall imaging. Select "OFF" or "ON"(default value: OFF).

■When selecting the "C. WIDTH (Center width)" control

This adjusts the center image so it may be heard only from the center speaker, only from the left/right speakers as a phantom image, or from all three front speakers to varying degrees. The control can be set in 8 steps from 0 to 7(default value :

3).

■When selecting the "DIMEN (Dimension)" control

This gradually adjusts the soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear. The control can be set in 7 steps from -3 to +3 (default value : 0).

desired.

• The LFE level can be adjusted within the range of -10 ~ 0 dB and other channel levels within the range of -15 ~ +15 dB.

• In general, we recommend the LFE level to be adjusted to 0 dB.(However, the recommended LFE level for some early DTS software is -10 dB.) If the recommended levels seem too high, lower the setting as necessary.

4. Repeat the above steps 2 and 3 to adjust each

channel level.

• Each time these buttons are pressed, the corresponding channel is selected as follows:

→ REF 1, 2 (or CAL) ↔ L ↔ C ↔ R ← → <DTS or DD> ↔ SW ↔ SL ↔ SR ←

< >: Possible only when the digital signals from Dolby Digital or

DTS program sources that includes LFE signal are input.

• Depending on the speaker settings ("NO") and surround mode, etc., some channels cannot be selected.

• When the SPEAKER button is set to off, only the Front Left, Front Right (and LFE) channels can be selected.
