Installation procedure
This unit can be used in a number of ways, depending on
the layout of the speakers you are installing, and the
connections made to external devices. Read the following
to help make the installation process smoother.
Step1: Speaker Layout
Select the speaker layout that suits the types of speakers
you have and the conditions they will be used in from the
choices presented on pages P8 to P13, then install the
speakers by referring to the illustrations and explanations
on the relevant page. Speaker layouts include systems that
use surround back speakers, systems that use height
speakers, and systems that use Bi-Amping speakers. Also
refer to the combinations available in "Speaker
combinations" on P14.
Step2: Connect the Speakers
To connect the speaker systems to this unit, refer to P15 if
you are using a speaker layout described on one of P8 to
P12, and to P16 to use a speaker layout using Bi-Amping
speakers described on P13. The connection process will be
smoother if you refer to the illustrations and explanations
and prepare the required cables before hand.
Step3: Connect the TV & AV Components
Refer to P17 to P24 to connect your external devices such
as your TV, Blu-ray Disc Player, and also supplied
accessories such as the antennas. Also, P21 to P23
introduces the Multi-zone Connection option that allows you
to play video and audio into rooms other than the main
room. The connection process will be smoother if you refer
to the illustrations and explanations, confirm the connection
types on the external devices, and prepare the required
cables before hand.

7.1 Channel System
Front speakers output front stereo sound and a center
speaker outputs center sound such as dialogs and vocals.
Surround speakers create back sound field. Powered
subwoofer reproduces bass sounds and creates rich sound
field.
This basic 5.1 Channel System with surround back
speakers added is called a 7.1 Channel System. The
connection of surround back speakers improves the sense
of envelopment and connectivity of sound created by the
back sound field and provides a more real sound field.
Furthermore, by installing surround back speakers, you can
select the Dolby Atmos listening mode, which realizes the
most up-to-date 3D sound, when the input format is Dolby
Atmos.
The front speakers should be positioned at ear height, while
the surround speakers should be positioned just above ear
height. Center speaker should be set up facing the listening
position. Placing the powered subwoofer between the
center speaker and a front speaker gives you a natural
sound even when playing music. The optimal positioning is
for surround back speakers to be at ear height.
0 If you are including surround back speakers in the setup,
surround speakers are required.

With a 5.1 channel system, it is possible to connect front
speakers that support Bi-Amping to improve the quality of
the bass and treble. Bi-Amping compatible speakers need
their terminals for the tweeters connected to one amplifier
and their terminals for woofers connected to another
amplifier, so it is not possible to connect height speakers
and surround back speakers with this connection. Other
than front speakers, you can also connect a center speaker,
surround speakers, and a powered subwoofer.

About HDMI
■ Compatible functions
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital
interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Bluray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video
components. Until now, several separate video and audio
cables have been required to connect AV components.
With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital
video and digital audio (2 ch PCM, multichannel digital
audio, and multichannel PCM).
HDMI CEC functionality:
By connecting devices and HDMI cables that comply with
the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) specification of
the HDMI standard, a variety of linked operation become
possible between devices. You can enjoy features such as
linking input switching with the input selector and players,
control volume using the remote controller of the TV, and
automatically switching this unit to standby when the TV is
turned off.
The unit is designed to link with products that comply with
the CEC standard, and that linked operation is not always
guaranteed with all CEC devices. For linked functions
to work properly, do not connect more CEC-compliant
components than the quantities specified below, to the
HDMI jack.
•
Blu-ray Disc/DVD players: up to 3 units.
•
Blu-ray Disc/DVD recorders: up to 3 units.
•
Cable TV tuner, terrestrial digital tuner, and satellite
broadcasting tuner: up to 4 units.
Operation has been confirmed on the following devices:
(As of May 2017)
Toshiba brand televisions; Sharp brand televisions; Toshiba
brand players and recorders; Sharp brand players and
recorders (when used with a Sharp brand television)
ARC（Audio Return Channel）:
4
By connection a TV that supports ARC with a single HDMI
cable, you can not only output the audio and video from
this unit to the TV, but also input the audio from the TV to
this unit.
HDMI Standby Through:
Even if this unit is in standby, the input signals from AV
components are transmitted to the TV.
Deep Color:
By connecting devices supporting Deep Color, video
signals input from the devices can be reproduced on the
TV with even more colors.
x.v.Color™:
This technology realizes even more realistic colors by
broadening the color gamut.
3D:
You can transmit 3D video signals from AV components to
the TV.
4K:
This unit supports 4K (3840×2160p) and 4K SMPTE
(4096×2160p) video signals.
LipSync:
This setting automatically corrects any desynchronization
between the video and audio signals based on data from
the HDMI LipSync compatible TV.
Copyright Protection:
The unit supports Revision 1.4 and Revision 2.2 of the
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), a copyprotection system for digital video signals. Other devices
connected to the unit must also support HDCP.

Selecting Listening Modes
You can change the listening mode during play by pressing
repeatedly "AUTO/DIRECT", "SURR", or "STEREO".
■ AUTO/DIRECT button
Press repeatedly and the listening modes suited to the
input signal are switched between "Auto Surround",
"Direct", and "Pure Direct". After selecting one of them,
"Auto Surround" (or "Direct" or "Pure Direct") is displayed,
then the most suitable listening mode for the audio format
is selected automatically (Dolby Digital for multi-channel
input signals, Stereo for 2 channel input signals, etc.) and
an indicator such as "Dolby D" is displayed on the display.
The "Direct" mode shuts down some processing that can
affect sound quality, such as the tone control features, so
you can enjoy even better sound quality. The "Pure Direct"
mode shuts down even more processes that affects sound
quality, so you get a more faithful reproduction of the
original sound. In this case, the speaker calibration made
with MCACC is invalid.
■ SURR button
By pressing repeatedly you can select the audio format
of the signals being input and switch between a variety
of listening modes. Select the mode that suits your
preference. The selected listening mode is displayed on
the display.
■ STEREO button
You can select the "Stereo" mode to playback only from
the front speakers and subwoofer.
For details on the effects of each of the listening modes
see "Listening Mode Effects". For listening modes
selectable for each of the audio formats in the input
signals, refer to "Selectable Listening Modes".

Listening Mode Effects
In alphabetical order
■ Action
Mode suitable for movies with a lot of action scenes.
■ AdvancedGame
Mode suitable for game content.
■ Classical
Suitable for classical or operatic music. This mode
emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the
sound image, and simulates the natural reverberation of a
large hall.
■ Dolby Atmos
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded
in the Dolby Atmos audio format.
The Dolby Atmos audio format has been implemented
in movie theaters equipped with the latest facilities and
enables a revolutionary sound experience in home
theaters. Unlike existing surround systems, Dolby Atmos
doesn't rely on channels, but rather enables the accurate
placement of sound objects that have independent
motion in a three-dimensional space with even greater
clarity. Dolby Atmos is an optional audio format on Bluray Discs and achieves a three-dimensional sound field by
introducing a sound field above the listener.
•
To enable transfer of this audio format, connect via
HDMI cable and set audio output on the player to
bitstream output.
■ Dolby D (Dolby Digital)
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded
in the Dolby Digital audio format.
Dolby Digital is a multi-channel digital format developed
by Dolby Laboratories, Inc. widely adopted for use in
movie production. It is also a standard audio format on
DVD-Video and Blu-ray Discs. It is possible to record a
maximum of 5.1 channels on a DVD-Video or Blu-ray
Disc; two front channels, a center channel, two surround
channels, and the LFE channel dedicated to the bass
region (sound elements for the subwoofer).
•
To enable transfer of this audio format, connect via
digital cable and set audio output on the player to
bitstream output.
■ Dolby D＋ (Dolby Digital Plus)
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded
in the Dolby Digital Plus audio format.
The Dolby Digital Plus format is a revision based on
Dolby Digital, increasing the number of channels and
endeavoring to improve sound quality by giving more
flexibility in data bit rates. Dolby Digital Plus is used as an
optional audio format on Blu-ray Discs, based on 5.1ch,
but with additional channels such as the Surround Back
channel added for a maximum of 7.1ch.
•
To enable transfer of this audio format, connect via
HDMI cable and set audio output on the player to
bitstream output.
■ Dolby Surround
This listening mode allows you to expand the playback
signal to 5.1 channels or 7.1 channels to suit the
connected speaker configuration when the input signal is 2
channels or 5.1 channels. Along with past speaker setups,
this is also compatible with playback systems for Dolby
Atmos that include Dolby speaker technology.
■ Dolby TrueHD
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded
in the Dolby TrueHD audio format.
The Dolby TrueHD audio format is a reversible format
expanded based on the lossless compression technology
referred to as MLP, and it makes it possible to faithfully
reproduce the master audio recorded in the studio. Dolby
TrueHD is used as an optional audio format on Blu-ray
Discs, based on 5.1ch, but with additional channels such
as the Surround Back channel added for a maximum
of 7.1ch. 7.1ch is recorded at 96kHz/24bit, and 5.1ch is
recorded at 192kHz/24bit.
•
To enable transfer of this audio format, connect via
HDMI cable and set audio output on the player to
bitstream output.
■ Drama
Suitable for TV shows produced in a TV studio. This mode
enhances the surround effects to the entire sound to give
clarity to voices and create a realistic acoustic image.
■ DSD
Mode suitable for playing sources recorded in DSD.
•
This unit supports DSD signals input through HDMI IN.
However, depending on the connected player, better
sound is possible when output from the PCM output of
the player.
•
This listening mode cannot be selected if the output
setting on your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player is not set to
DSD.
■ DTS
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded
in the DTS audio format.
The DTS audio format is a multi-channel digital format
developed by DTS, Inc. This format is an optional audio
format on DVD-Video and a standard on Blu-ray Discs.
It enables recording of 5.1 channels; two front channels,
a center channel, two surround channels, and the LFE
channel dedicated to the bass region (sound elements
for the subwoofer). The content is recorded with a rich
volume of data, with maximum sampling rate of 48 kHz at
a resolution of 24 bits and a bit rate of 1.5 Mbps.

Troubleshooting
Before starting the procedure
Problems may be solved by simply turning the power on/
off or disconnecting/connecting the power cord, which
is easier than working on the connection, setting and
operating procedure. Try the simple measures on both the
unit and the connected device. If the problem is that the
video or audio is not output or the HDMI linked operation
does not work, disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable
may solve it. When reconnecting, be careful not to wind
the HDMI cable since if wound the HDMI cable may not
fit well. After reconnecting, turn off and on the unit and the
connected device.
•
This unit contains a microPC for signal processing
and control functions. In very rare situations, severe
interference, noise from an external source, or static
electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event
that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in.

■ The subwoofer produces no sound
If the setting of the front speakers is "Large" and during
2ch input such as from the TV or music, the low range
elements will be output from the front speakers rather than
from the subwoofer. If you would rather output from the
subwoofer, make one of the following settings.
1. Change the front speakers settings to "Small".
The low range elements will be output from the
subwoofer rather than the front speakers. We do not
recommend changing this if your front speakers have
good low range reproduction capabilities.
2. Change "Double Bass" to "On".
The low range elements will be output from both the
front speakers and the subwoofer. This may mean that
there is too much bass. Do not change if this happens,
or choose option 1.

"Selectable Listening Modes" in "Listening Modes" in
the Advanced Manual.
■ There is no sound with Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos,
and DTS-HD Master Audio (for compatible models
only)
•
You need to connect surround back speakers or height
speakers to enjoy Dolby Atmos. Furthermore, Dolby
Atmos can only be enjoyed when the input signals are
Dolby Atmos.
•
If you cannot output formats such as Dolby TrueHD,
Dolby Atmos, or DTS-HD Master Audio according to the
format of the source, in the Blu-ray Disc player settings
try setting "BD video supplementary sound" (or reencode, secondary sound, video additional audio, etc.)
to "Off". Change the listening mode for each source
after changing the setting to confirm.
■ About DTS signals
•
With media that switches suddenly from DTS to PCM,
PCM playback may not start immediately. In such
cases, you should stop your player for about 3 seconds
and then resume playback.
•
With some CD and LD players, you will not be able
to playback DTS material properly even though your
player is connected to a digital input on the unit. This is
usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed
on the remote controller several times to

Information about products with Wi-Fi/
BLUETOOTH features
■ Radio Wave Caution
Products with Wi-Fi/BLUETOOTH use radio waves in the
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands.
There are nations and regions where the use of particular
5 GHz bands are prohibited outdoors, so do not use these
products outside.
2.4 GHz radio waves are used by a variety of devices, as
shown in lists 1 and 2 below.
1. Devices which use a 2.4 GHz radio wave frequency
•
Cordless phones
•
Cordless facsimiles
•
Microwave ovens
•
Wireless LAN devices (IEEE802.11b/g/n)
•
Wireless AV equipment
•
Wireless controllers for game systems
•
Microwave oven-based health aids
•
Video transmitter
•
Specific type of external monitor and LCD display
2. Less common devices which use a 2.4 GHz radio wave
frequency
•
Anti-theft systems
•
Amateur radio stations (HAM)
•
Warehouse logistic management systems
•
Discrimination systems for train or emergency
vehicles
If these devices and the AV receiver are used at the same
time, the audio may be undesirably stopped or disturbed
due to a radio wave interference.
Suggestions for improvement
•
Switch off the devices which emit the radio wave.
•
Place the interfering devices away from the AV
receiver.
•
The AV receiver uses radio wave, and a third person
can receive the wave on purpose or accidentally. Do not
use the communication for important or fatal matters.
•
We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any error
or damage of network environment or access device
resulting from the use of this apparatus.
Confirm with the provider or access device maker for
more information.
■ Scope of Operation
Use of the AV receiver is limited to home use.
(Transmission distances may be reduced depending on
communication environment.)
In the following locations, poor condition or inability to
receive radio waves may cause the audio to be interrupted
or stopped:
•
In reinforced concrete buildings or steel framed or iron
framed buildings.
•
Near large metallic furniture.
•
In a crowd of people or near a building or obstacle.
•
In a location exposed to the magnetic field, static
electricity or radio wave interference from radio
communication equipment using the same frequency
band (2.4 GHz) as the AV receiver, such as a 2.4 GHz
wireless LAN device (IEEE802.11b/g/n) or microwave
oven.
•
If you live in a heavily populated residential area
(apartment, townhouse, etc.) and if your neighborʼs
microwave oven is placed near your AV receiver, you
may experience radio wave interference. If this occurs,
move your AV receiver to a different place.
When the microwave oven is not in use, there will be no
radio wave interference.
■ Radio Wave Reflections
The radio waves received by the AV receiver include the
radio wave coming directly from the devices and waves
coming from various directions due to reflections by walls,
furniture and building (reflected waves). The reflected
waves (due to obstacles and reflecting objects) further
produce a variety of reflected waves as well as variation
in reception condition depending on locations. If the audio
cannot be received properly due to this phenomenon, try
moving the location of the wireless LAN device a little.
Also note that audio may be interrupted due to the
reflected waves when a person crosses or approaches

> Specifications > Advanced Setup > Listening Modes
the space between the AV receiver and the wireless LAN
device.
•
We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any
damages resulting from the use of this apparatus
except in the cases deemed acceptable under the
applicable laws and regulations.
•
Operation in all environment is not guaranteed for
wireless LAN. The communication may not be possible
