Note on video component hookups

You can connect your TV’s audio output jacks to the VIDEO 2 AUDIO IN jacks on the receiver and apply sound effects to the audio from the TV. In this case, do not connect the TV’s video output jack to the VIDEO 2 VIDEO IN jack on the receiver. If you are connecting a separate satellite tuner, connect both the audio and video output jacks to the receiver as shown above.

10US

Digital component hookups

If you are not going to hookup a DVD Player/Video Cassette Recorder, you can hookup your digital components as shown below.

Connect the digital output jacks of your DVD player and satellite tuner (etc.) to the receiver’s digital input jacks to bring the multi channel surround sound of a movie theater into your home. To fully enjoy multi channel surround sound, five speakers (two front speakers, two surround speakers, and a center speaker) and a sub woofer are required.

Note

All the OPTICAL and COAXIAL jacks are compatible with 96 kHz, 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 32 kHz sampling frequencies.

Examples of poor conditions of the

 

speaker cord

Tip

To prevent speaker vibration or movement while listening, attach the supplied foot pads at the bottom of the speakers.

Stripped speaker cord is touching another speaker terminal.

Notes

Connect the long speaker connecting cords to the surround speaker terminals and the short speaker connecting cords to the front and center speaker terminals.

Twist the stripped ends of the speaker cords about 2/3 inch. Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and

– to –. If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass.

If you use speakers with low maximum input rating, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive output on the speakers.

To avoid short-circuiting the speakers

Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the receiver. To prevent this, make sure to take the following precautions when connecting the speakers.

Make sure the stripped ends of each speaker cord does not touch another speaker terminal, the stripped end of another speaker cord, or the metal parts of the receiver.

14US

Stripped cords are touching each other due to excessive removal of insulation.

Stripped cords are not fully attached and are touching the rear panel of the receiver.

After connecting all the components, speakers, and AC power cord, output a test tone to check that all the speakers are connected correctly. For details on outputting a test tone, see page 19.

If no sound is heard from a speaker while outputting a test tone or a test tone is output from a speaker other than the one whose name is currently displayed on the receiver, the speaker may be short-circuited. If this happens, check the speaker connection again.

To avoid damaging your speakers

Make sure that you turn down the volume before you turn off the receiver. When you turn on the receiver, the volume remains at the level you turn off the receiver.

Performing initial setup

operations

Once you have hooked up the speakers and turned on the power, clear the receiver’s memory. Then specify the speaker parameters (size, position, etc.) and perform any other initial setup operations necessary for your system.

Tip

To check the audio output during settings (to set up while outputting the sound), check the connection (page 20).

Clearing the receiver’s memory

Before using your receiver for the first time, or when you want to clear the receiver’s memory, do the following.

1 Turn off the receiver.

2 Hold down ?/1 for 5 seconds.

“INITIAL” appears in the display. The following are reset to their factory settings.

All settings in the SET UP, LEVEL and TONE menus.

The sound field memorized for each input selector and preset station.

All sound field parameters.

All preset stations.

All index names of input selectors and preset stations.

The master volume is set to “VOL MIN”.

Performing initial setup operations

Before using your receiver for the first time, adjust SET UP parameters so that the receiver correspond to your system. For the adjustable parameters, see the table on page 46. See pages 15–19 for speaker settings and page 33 for other settings.

Multi channel surround

setup

For the best possible surround sound, all speakers should be the same distance from the listening position (A).

However, the receiver lets you place the center speaker up to 5 feet closer (B) and the surround speakers up to 15 feet closer (C) to the listening position.

The front speakers can be placed from 3 to 23 feet from the listening position (A).

You can place the surround speakers either behind you or to the side, depending on the shape of your room (etc.). However, we recommend that you place the surround speakers behind you.
