power cable from the AC wall outlet.
You are now ready to connect the speakers.
Connecting the speaker
n
Connect a speaker cable between the negative (–) terminal of the unit and the
negative (–) terminal of the speaker, and between the positive (+) terminal of the unit
and the positive (+) unit of the speaker.
Notice
When connecting the speaker cables, take notice of the following:
▪ Prepare speaker cables in a place away from the unit, to avoid accidentally dropping wire strands into
the unit's interior which could result in a short circuit or malfunction of the unit.
▪ Improper connecting of the speaker cables may cause a short circuit and also damage the unit or the
speakers.
– Twist the bare wires of the speaker cables firmly together.
– Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable touch one another.
– Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable come into contact with the unit’s metal parts (rear panel
and screws).
Cable requirements
Use the following types of commercially-available cables to connect speakers to the
unit:

HDMI connection with a TV
Connect a TV to the unit with an HDMI cable. If you connect a TV that supports ARC to
the unit, you can output video/audio to the TV or input TV audio to the unit.
About Audio Return Channel (ARC)
▪ ARC allows audio signals to travel both ways with a single HDMI cable. To use ARC, connect to the TV
using an HDMI cable that supports ARC.
Note
▪ If you connect a TV that supports HDMI Control to the unit with an HDMI cable, you can control the unit’s
power and volume with the TV’s remote control.
▪ To use HDMI Control and ARC, you need to configure the HDMI settings on the unit. For details on the
settings, see the following:
– “HDMI Control and synchronized operations” (p.144)
– “Audio Return Channel (ARC)” (p.145)
▪ If your TV does not support Audio Return Channel (ARC), a digital optical cable connection between the
TV and the unit is needed.
VIDEO (composite video) connection with a TV
Connect a TV to the unit with a video pin cable and a digital optical cable.
Note
▪ If you connect your TV to the unit with a cable other than HDMI, video input to the unit via HDMI cannot be
output to the TV. For details, see the following:
– “Video signal flow” (p.143)
▪ Operations with TV screen are available only when your TV is connected to the unit via HDMI.
▪ A digital optical cable connection allows audio from the TV to be played back on the unit. A digital optical
cable connection is not needed in the following case:
– If you will receive TV broadcasts only from the set-top box

Preparing for connecting to a network
The unit supports wired and wireless connections. Select a connection method
according to your network environment.
If you are using a router that supports DHCP in the wired connection, you do not need
to configure any network settings for the unit.
Note
You need to configure the network settings if your router does not support DHCP or if you want to configure
the network parameters manually. For details, see the following:
▪ “Setting the network parameters manually” (p.110)
To connect the unit to a wireless network, select one of the following methods to
configure the wireless network settings.
l Method using the MusicCast setting
When adding the unit to the MusicCast network, you can also configure the unit’s
wireless network settings at once. If you use MusicCast CONTROLLER, we
recommend the wireless connection to MusicCast network. For details, see the
following:
– “Adding the unit to the MusicCast network” (p.37)
l Other methods
For details, see the following:
– “Selecting a wireless network connection method” (p.134)
Connecting a network cable (wired connection)
Connect the unit to your router with a commercially-available STP network cable
(CAT-5 or higher straight cable).
You can enjoy Internet radio or music files stored on media servers, such as PCs and
Network Attached Storage (NAS), on the unit.
Note
▪ If you are using a router that supports DHCP, you do not need to configure any network settings for the
unit, as the network parameters (such as the IP address) will be assigned automatically to it. You only
need to configure the network settings if your router does not support DHCP or if you want to configure the
network parameters manually. For details, see the following:
– “Setting the network parameters manually” (p.110)
▪ You can check whether the network parameters (such as IP address) are properly assigned to the unit.
For details, see the following:

Plugging in the power cable
Warning
(Taiwan, Brazil and Central and South America models only)
Make sure you set VOLTAGE SELECTOR of the unit BEFORE plugging the power cable into an AC wall
outlet. Improper setting of VOLTAGE SELECTOR may cause damage to the unit and create a potential
fire hazard.
Before plugging in the power cable
Set the switch position of VOLTAGE SELECTOR according to your local voltage. Voltages are AC 110–
120/220–240 V, 50/60 Hz.
After all the connections are complete, plug in the power cable.
