2 Connect the video jacks.
The following illustration shows how to connect a TV or satellite tuner and a DVD player with COMPONENT VIDEO (Y, PB/CB/B-Y, PR/CR/R-Y) output jacks. Connecting a TV with component video input jacks allows you to enjoy higher quality video. You can upconvert the video signals, and adjust the hue, etc. of the converted signals (page 38).
Notes
•You can listen to the sound of your TV by connecting your TV’s audio output jacks to the TV/SAT AUDIO IN jacks on the amplifier. In this case, do not connect the TV’s video output jack to the TV/SAT VIDEO IN jack on the amplifier.
•On this amplifier, standard video signals can be converted to component video and S-video signals, in addition S- video signals can be converted to component video signals. However, you cannot convert component video signals downward to standard video or S-video signals.
•When standard video signals (composite video signals) or S-video signals from a VCR etc. are converted upward on this receiver and then output to your TV, depending on the status of the video signal output, the image on the TV screen may appear distorted horizontally or no image may be output.

If you want to connect several digital components, but cannot find an unused input
See “Assigning the audio input” (page 31).
Tip
All the digital audio jacks are compatible with 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz and 96 kHz sampling frequencies.
Notes
•No sound is output when playing a Super Audio CD disc on a Super Audio CD player connected to the CD/SACD OPTICAL or CD/SACD COAXIAL IN jack on this amplifier. Connect the player to the analog input jacks (CD/ SACD IN jacks). Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the Super Audio CD player.
•You cannot make digital recordings of digital multi channel surround signals.

2 Connect the video jacks.
The following illustration shows how to connect a DVD player with COMPONENT VIDEO (Y, PB/ CB/B-Y, PR/CR/R-Y) output jacks. Connecting a TV with component video input jacks allows you to enjoy higher quality video. You can upconvert the video signals, and adjust the hue, etc. of the converted signals (page 38).
Notes
•On this amplifier, standard video signals can be converted to component video and S-video signals, in addition S- video signals can be converted to component video signals. However, you cannot convert component video signals downward to standard video or S-video signals.
•When standard video signals (composite video signals) or S-video signals from a VCR etc. are converted upward on this receiver and then output to your TV, depending on the status of the video signal output, the image on the TV screen may appear distorted horizontally or no image may be output.

2: Connecting speakers
Connect your speakers to the amplifier. This amplifier allows you to use a 9.1 channel system.
To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a sub woofer (5.1 channel).
You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of DVD software recorded in the Surround EX format if you connect one additional surround back speaker (6.1 channel) or two surround back speakers (7.1 channel) (see “Selecting the surround back decoding mode” on page 29).
You can even enjoy the 9.1 channel surround sound by connecting four surround speakers (see “Selecting the speaker system” on page 45).
Example of 7.1 channel speaker system configuration
Center speaker
Front speaker (R)
Surround speaker (R)
Front speaker (L)
Sub woofer
Surround speaker (L)
Surround back speaker (R)
Surround back speaker (L)
Tips
•When you connect 6.1 channel speaker system, place the surround back speaker behind the listening position.
•Since the sub woofer does not emit highly directional signals, you can place it wherever you want.
Speaker impedance
To enjoy the best possible multi channel surround, connect speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms or higher to the FRONT, CENTER, SURROUND and SURROUND BACK terminals, and set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to “8Ω ”. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with your speakers if you are not sure of their impedance. (This information is often on the back of the speaker.) Alternatively, you may connect speakers with nominal impedances between 4 and 8 ohms to any or all of the speaker terminals. However, be sure to set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to “4Ω ” if you connect even one speaker with a nominal impedance between 4 and 8 ohms.
Note
Be sure to turn the power off before adjusting the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR.

Tip (Models of area code U, CA only)
To connect certain speakers to another power amplifier, use the PRE OUT jacks. The same signal is output from both the SPEAKERS FRONT jacks and the PRE OUT jacks. For example, if you want to connect just the front speakers to another amplifier, connect that amplifier to the PRE OUT FRONT L and R jacks.
Enjoying the 9.1 channel speaker system
What is the 9.1 channel speaker system?
A large dubbing theater for recording movie soundtracks uses 10 surround speakers. However, in a small dubbing theater, only 2 speakers each are placed on the right, left, and back walls. Thus, the minimum setup for a dubbing theater is 9.1 channels. When SPEAKERS SURROUND is set to A+B, you can enjoy 9.1 channel speaker operation, just like a dubbing theater.
Arrange the speakers around the center of the room based on the angles shown in the illustration on the left. If you are unable to position the speakers according to the angles shown, place one set of surround speakers slightly forward of the listening position (toward the front speakers).
Although the center of the room is used as an axis for determining speaker placement, 9.1 channel speaker operation covers an extremely wide listening area which you can enjoy from anywhere in the room behind the central point.
When using the CINEMA STUDIO EX modes with the 9.1 channel system, be sure to set Virtual Speaker to OFF in SURR SET UP. (You can enjoy the surround effects of movies even without the use of virtual speakers since so many real speakers are used.)
In addition, unlike virtual speakers, the expressive capability of real speakers will vary depending on the speaker. Adjust the effect level so that the actor’s lines sound natural and the impact of sound effects is nicely balanced.
The advantage of a 9.1 channel speaker system is a drastic improvement in the connection between the front (video) sound field and the surround sound field. Previously, we have employed virtual speaker technology to present this sound effect, but a real 9.1 channel multi channel surround system has a much wider effect area so that all family members can enjoy the surround effect. Of course, when seated in the middle of the listening position, you can enjoy the sound exactly as the movie director listened.
Tips for placing speakers
Place surround speakers B between the front speakers and the listening position. Adjusting the position of these speakers improves the connection between the front and surround sound stage.

Tips for using the 9.1 channel speaker system
You can also use the CINEMA STUDIO EX modes with the 9.1 channel speaker system. In this case, the number of virtual surround speakers doubles (for a total of 12 virtual surround speakers).
However, this large number of speakers may narrow the surround effect area. Thus, it may be more effective to set “VIR.SPEAKERS” in the SURR SET UP menu to “OFF”.
Please note that the front L/R and center speakers are common to all modes, and this function only changes the use of the surround speakers. Depending on how you use SPEAKERS FRONT to switch the front speaker system (A/B), and how you set “CENTER SP” in the SPEAKER SET UP menu (“YES” or “MIX”), you can set up two completely different systems. For example, you can set up a 2 channel or 4 channel speaker system for pure audio sources, and a 7.1 channel speaker system for AV sources.
Please note that in most cases you can use the 9.1 channel setting for Super Audio CD and other pure audio sources without any adjustments. However, depending on the type of speakers you have and the way the music software was recorded, you may want to switch to 7.1 channel or 5.1 channel playback. In such cases, you should set up your surround speaker system to switch between A and B. Use surround speakers B for 5.1 channel operation and surround speakers A+B for 9.1 channel operation.

This procedure can also be used to return settings you have made to their factory defaults.
1 Press ?/1 to turn off the amplifier.
2 Hold down ?/1 for 5 seconds.
“ENTER to Clear ALL” appears in the display for 10 seconds.
3 Press ENTER while “ENTER to Clear ALL” appears in the display.
After “MEMORY CLEARING...” appears in the display for a while, “MEMORY CLEARED!” appears.
The following are reset to their factory settings.
•All settings in the SPEAKER SET UP, LEVEL, SURR SET UP, EQUALIZER, and CUSTOMIZE menus.
•The sound field memorized for each input.
•All index names for inputs.

4: Setting up the speakers
You can use the SPEAKER SET UP menu to set the size and distance of the speakers connected to this system.
1 Press ?/1 to turn on the system.
2 Rotate MAIN MENU to select “SPEAKER SET UP”.
3 Rotate MENU to select the menu item you want.
For more information, see “Speaker setup parameters”.
Notes
•Certain setup parameters may be dimmed in the display. This means that the selected parameter is either unavailale or fixed and unchangeable due to sound field (pages 27–29) or other settings.
•Some speaker setup items may appear dimmed in the display. This means that they have been adjusted automatically due to other speaker settings. Depending on the settings, you may or may not be able to adjust certain speakers.
4 Rotate –/+ to select the parameter.
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have set all of the items that follow.
Note
Before setting up the surround speakers, select the surround speakers you use (page 45).
Speaker setup parameters
The initial settings are underlined.
x SP EASY SET UP (Speaker easy setup)
•YES
You can set up your speakers automatically by selecting a pre-defined speaker pattern (see the supplied “Easy Setup Guide”).
•NO
Select to adjust the settings of each speaker manually.
xSPEAKER PATTERN (Speaker setup pattern)
When “SP EASY SET UP” is set to “YES”, select the speaker setup pattern. Rotate –/+ to select the speaker setup pattern and press
ENTER to enter the selection. Check your speaker pattern using the supplied “Easy Setup Guide”.
x SUB WOOFER (Sub woofer)
•YES
If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.
•NO
If you did not connect a sub woofer, select “NO”. This activates the bass redirection circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other speakers.
Tip
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the sub woofer’s cut off frequency as high as possible.
x FRONT SP (Front speakers)
•LARGE
If you connect large speakers that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”. When the sub woofer is set to “NO”, front speakers are automatically set to “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the front channel bass frequencies from the sub woofer. When the front speakers are set to “SMALL”, the center, surround and surround back speakers are also automatically set to “SMALL” (unless previously set to “NO”).
x CENTER SP (Center speaker)
•LARGE
If you connect a large speaker that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”. However, if the front speakers are set to “SMALL”, you cannot set the center speaker to “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the center channel bass frequencies from the front speakers (if set to “LARGE”) or sub woofer.
