CONNECTIONS

Connecting speakers

This unit uses acoustic field effects and sound decoders to bring you the impact of a real movie theater or concert hall. These effects will be brought to you with ideal speaker positioning and connections in your listening environment.

Speaker channels and functions

Front left and right speakers
The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds (stereo sound) and effect sounds.
Ex.
Front speaker layout: Place these speakers at an equal distance from the ideal listening position in the front of the room. When using a projector screen, the appropriate top positions of the speakers are about 1/4 of the screen from the bottom.
Center speaker
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.).
Surround left and right speakers
The surround speakers are for effect and vocal sounds with the 5.1-channel speakers providing rear­area sounds.
Ex.
Surround speaker layout: Place the speakers at the rear of the room on the left and right sides facing the listening position. They should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position and with the speaker tops at a height of 1.5 – 1.8 m from the floor.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and low-frequency effect (LFE) sounds included in Dolby Digital and DTS. Use a subwoofer that is equipped with an internal amplifier.
Ex.
Center speaker layout: Place it halfway between the left and right speakers. When using a TV, place the speaker just above or just under the center of the TV with the front surfaces of the TV and the speaker aligned. When using a screen, place it just under the center of the screen.
Ex.
Subwoofer speaker layout: Place it exterior to the front left and right speakers facing slightly inward to reduce echoes from the wall.

If you cannot connect all five speakers, give priority to the surround speakers.
The surround speakers should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position.
CRT monitors
We recommend that you use magnetically shielded speakers to avoid video distortion, especially for the front and center speakers near the screen. If your screen still gets interference from magnetically shielded speakers, move the speakers farther away from your TV.
Press STRAIGHT repeatedly to select a “6ΩMIN.”

CAUTION
Remove the AC power cord of this unit from the power outlet before connecting the speakers.
Generally speaker cables consist of two parallel insulated cables. One of these cables is a different
color, or has a line running along it, to indicate different polarity. Insert the different colored (or lined)
cable into the “+” (positive, red) terminal on this unit and the speakers, and the other cable into the “-”
(minus, black) terminal.
Be careful that the core of the speaker cable does not touch anything or come into contact with the metal
areas of this unit. This may damage this unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit,
“CHECK SP WIRES!” will appear on the front panel display when this unit is switched on.

We recommend using a cable less than 5.0 m long to prevent signal quality degradation.
When using a TV that supports Audio Return Channel function, audio/video signals can be transmitted
mutually between the unit and TV with a single HDMI cable (

To transmit sound from the TV to this unit, connect as followings according to the TV:
When using a TV that supports the Audio Return Channel function and HDMI Control function
When your TV supports both HDMI Control (Ex. Panasonic VIERA Link) and Audio Return Channel functions, audio/video output from the unit to the TV and audio output from the TV to the unit are possible using a single HDMI cable. The input source is switched automatically to match operations carried out on the TV, and that makes TV sound control easier to use. For the connections and settings, refer to “Single HDMI cable input to TV audio with Audio Return Channel function” (
p. 59).
When using a TV that supports the HDMI Control functions
When using a TV that supports HDMI Control functions (Ex. Panasonic VIERA Link), if HDMI Control functions are enabled on the unit, then input source can be switched automatically to match operations carried out on the TV. For the connections and settings, refer to “Switching the input source on this unit automatically when listening to TV audio” (
p. 58).
TV audio output Connection
Optical digital audio output Connect to the OPTICAL jack of the AV1 or AV4 with a digital audio pin
cable.
Coaxial digital audio output Connect to the COAXIAL jack of the AV2 or AV3 with a fiber-optic cable.
Analog stereo output Connect to one of the AV5, AUDIO1, AUDIO2, or V-AUX with a stereo pin
cable.
Select the input source connected via TV’s audio output jack to enjoy the TV sound. If the TV supports optical digital audio output, we recommend that you connect the TV audio output to the receiver’s AV4 jack. Connecting to AV4 allows you to switch the input source to AV4 with just a single key operation using the SCENE function (

Improving AM reception
Connect this unit to an outdoor antenna with a 5-10 m vinyl-coated wire. Make sure the AM loop antenna is still connected. Connecting the GND jack can reduce noise. Connect the jack to a store-bought ground bar or copper plate with a vinyl-covered wire and bury this new attachment in moist ground. The GND jack is not to be connected to the ground socket of an electrical outlet.
