BEFORE USE
CAUTIONS ON HANDLING BATTERIES
OPERATIONAL RANGE
Operate the unit with the remote controller within
the range of the illustration below.
USAGE OF REMOTE CONTROLLER
Misusing batteries can lead to fire, injury or soiling
of surrounding area as a result of leakage, rupture
or corrosion.
Carefully read the following precautions before
using batteries.
LOADING BATTERIES
Before using the remote controller for the first time,
load the batteries in the remote controller. The
batteries provided are used to verify the operations
of the remote controller only.
• Insert the batteries while ensuring that their
ª and · poles are properly aligned with
the corresponding markings on the remote
controller.
Approx. 5m (16.4 ft)
1. Remove the battery cover.
• Batteries of the same size and shape may have
different voltages. Do not use any battery except
the type indicated. Do not use old and new
batteries together, and do not use different types
of batteries together.
2. Paying close attention to polarity indicators
(ª plus and · minus), be sure to insert
batteries correctly and as indicated.
3. Return the battery cover to its original
position.
• Do not recharge batteries.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Seek
medical attention if accidentally ingested.
2
1
Caution
3
• Do not carry or store batteries together with
metal ball point pens, necklaces, coins, hair pins,
etc.
• Do not allow direct sunlight, an inverter
fluorescent light or other strong source of light to
shine onto the player’s infrared receptor window.
Otherwise, the operation of the remote controller
may be disabled.
• If you will not be using the remote controller for
an extended time (1 month or more), remove the
batteries to prevent leakage. If batteries leak, do
not touch the fluid with bare hands. Wipe away
any fluid in the case and put in new batteries.
When doing so, handle with care, because fluid
on skin or clothing presents a burn risk. If you
accidentally get fluid on your skin, immediately
wash with water and seek medical attention.
• Bear in mind that operating the remote controller
may cause other devices operated by infrared
rays to be operated by mistake.
• The remote controller cannot be operated if the
space between the controller and the player’s
infrared receptor window is obstructed.
• Do not place any objects on top of the remote
controller.
• Do not heat or take apart batteries or put them in
flame or water.
Doing so may cause one or more buttons to be
held down which will cause the batteries to run
down.
• When disposing of used batteries, please
comply with governmental regulations or
environmental public instruction’s rules that
apply in your country or area.
• Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat
such as direct sunlight, fire or the like.

BASIC CONNECTIONS
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
CONNECTING SPEAKERS
The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, a
center speaker, surround left and right speakers, a surround back left and right speakers, and a subwoofer.
For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver
units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side.
Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80% of the dialog from a typical motion picture
emanates from the center channel.
• Be sure to use speakers with the specified impedance as shown on the rear panel of this unit.
• When connecting a powered subwoofer (one with a built-in amplifier), connect it to the PRE OUT
subwoofer output terminal.
MONITOR OUT

DVD
MONITOR OUT
It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be
identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality.
The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES.
One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they
were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic’ type systems.

Use magnetically-shielded speakers for front left,
right and the center speakers when the speakers are
installed near the TV.
CENTER SPEAKER
Align the front line of the center speaker with the
front L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a
little backward from the line.
SURROUND LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS
• Do not touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. It may cause you to receive an electric shocks.
• Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speaker terminal. Doing so may damage this unit.
Place the surround left, right and surround back
speakers higher than your ears by about 70cm–1m.
Also place the speakers at the same height, as best
as possible.
SURROUND LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS
When this unit is used in surround operation, the
preferred location for surround speakers is on the
side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the
listening position.
• Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the speaker properly. If they are miss-connected, the
signal phase will be reversed and the signal quality will be corrupted.
The center of the center speaker should face the
center of the room.

CONNECTING HDMI COMPONENTS
This unit has 4 HDMI inputs and 1 HDMI output. It can send digital video and audio signals from Blu-ray’s
and other sources directly to a display. It minimizes signal degradation caused by analog conversion so that
high quality images can be enjoyed.
An HDMI cable (sold separately) is used to connect the HDMI jack on the unit with the HDMI jack on the Blu-
ray disc player, TV, projector or other component. To transmit multichannel audio via HDMI, the connected
player must support multichannel audio transmission through its HDMI jack.
Notes
Notes
• When the HDMI output is connected to a display monitor that does not support HDCP*, signals are not output.
To view images in HDMI, it is necessary to connect to a display that supports HDCP.
• Some source devices such as DVD players or set top box do not support HDMI repeater operations like those
of the unit. In such case, pictures are not properly projected on monitors such as TVs and projectors.
• Refer to the instruction manual of the TV or display to be connected to the unit for detailed information
regarding the HDMI terminal.
• When multiple components are connected to this unit, turn power to unused components off to prevent
interference between them.
• Disconnecting or connecting cables with the power on can damage the equipment. Turn the power off before
disconnecting or connecting cables.

RETURN TO MAIN MENU
When movies are played using audio components
designed for the home, the treble range in their
sound tracks is boosted, sometimes producing
a somewhat shrill sound. This is because these
sound tracks are designed to be played in the very
large spaces inside movie theaters. However, if the
HT-EQ function is enabled when watching movies
designed for viewing at the movie theater, the
sound will be compensated so that the appropriate
tonal balance is attained.
Press the 3/4cursor buttons to move the cursor to
the items to be set up.
Notes
• Only HDMI input signals can be connected to
the BLU-RAY and GAME terminals on the unit's
rear panel, so the video-convert function will not
work.

1-1 SUB W MODE
The subwoofer mode setting takes effect only when
the front speaker has been set to FULL RANGE and
the subwoofer to YES.
This menu item setting takes effect only when PCM
or analog stereo source signals are played.
The audio signals that have been input to the HDMI
terminal are not output from the unit's speaker
terminals. Instead, the audio data is output straight
to the TV or projector connected to the unit's HDMI
OUT terminal. This menu setting is used to listen to
sound through a TV with a multi-channel capability.
• HDMI digital video signals cannot be down-
converted to analog video signals.
• The signals up-converted to HDMI output signals
are output without any processing at the resolution
of the analog video signals that were input.
When up-converting video or component video
signals with a 480i resolution, a video monitor
(TV set) supporting the 480i resolution must be
connected to the unit.
Press the 1/2cursor buttons to select ON or OFF.

Dolby Digital EX
AUTO
2 MODE
DTS
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology
are able to reproduce an extra channel which has
been added during the mixing of the program.
This channel, called surround back, places sounds
behind the listener in addition to the currently
available front left, front center, front right, surround
right, surround left and subwoofer channels.
This additional channel provides the opportunity
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and
brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound
localization than ever before.
When this mode is selected, the unit determines
whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital,
Dolby Digital Surround EX, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby
TrueHD, DTS-HD, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS 96/24 or PCM
audio.
Surround EX & DTS-ES will operate for multichannel
sources that have a Dolby Digital Surround EX or
DTS-ES auto trigger flag in the digital signal.
When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the
number of channels for which the corresponding
signal is encoded will be played.
Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with
Dolby surround status automatically subjects that
signal to Pro Logic IIx movie processing before
play.
PCM 96 kHz source material can be played in this
mode.
(Dolby Digital, Pro Logic IIx MOVIE, Pro Logic
IIx MUSIC, Pro Logic IIx GAME)
This mode is used with source materials encoded in
Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround.

input has been selected.
Dolby Digital EX is not available in systems that do
not have without surround back speaker(s).
DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1)
Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music
DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio to
the DTS 5.1 channel format to improve the acoustic
positioning, and makes acoustic image movement
more natural with the 6.1 channel reproduction.
This unit incorporates a DTS-ES-decoder, which
can handle DTS-ES Discrete-encoded and DTS-ES
Matrix-encoded program sources from DVD, etc.
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 features digital discrete
recordingofallchannels, includingthesurroundback

DTS-ES is not available in systems that do not have
surround back speakers.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx has 5 modes:
This mode decodes 2 channel signals into 6
channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix
technology.
The DTS Neo:6 decoder has near-discrete properties
in the frequency characteristics of the channels as
well as in channel separation.
According to the signals to be played back, DTS
Neo:6 uses either the Neo:6 Cinema mode
optimized for movie playback or the Neo:6 Music
mode optimized for music playback.
Pro Logic IIx MOVIE
Notes
This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround
sound from Dolby Surround, encoded stereo movie
soundtracks.
• When you use this mode with certain DVD and
CD players, performing operations such as skip
or stop may momentarily interrupt the output.

Note
This mode restores the impact low-frequency
surround effects by routing them to the system’s
subwoofer.
In SOURCE DIRECT mode, the tone control
circuit ROOM EQ and HT-EQ are bypassed for
full-range frequency response and the purest audio
reproduction.
• The Neo:6 mode is available for 2 channel input
signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital,
HDCD or PCM format.

This mode bypasses all surround processing.
In stereo program sources, the left and right
channels play normally when PCM audio or analog
stereo is input.
With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1
channels are converted to two channel stereo. 96
kHz PCM source material can be played back in
stereo mode.
Notes
• Pro Logic IIx mode will decode as Pro Logic

CAUTION
Note for DTS
DESCRIPTION
This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more
natural soundstage from two channel source material.
This is done by feeding the left channel signal to
both the left front and left surround speakers and
the right channel signal to both the right front and
right surround speakers. Additionally, the center
channel reproduces a mix of the right and left
channels.
• Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of
matrix decoding from stereo matrix material.
Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive
six and five separate channels, respectively,
corresponding to the standard home-theater
speaker layouts.
• To connected DVD player, laserdisc player or CD
player needs to support DTS digital output. You
may not be able to play some DTS source signals
from certain CD players and LD players even if
you connect the player to the unit digitally. This
is because the digital signal has been processed
(such as the output level, sampling frequency
or frequency response), and the unit cannot
recognize the signal as DTS data.

digital sound to both movies and music.
DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to
create full range digital sound reproduction.
The no compromise DTS digital process sets the
standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering
an exact copy of the studio master recordings to
neighborhood and home theaters.
Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multichannel
digital signal format developed by Digital Theater
Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with
the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-
ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-
degree surround impression and space expression
thanks to further expanded surround signals. This
format has been used professionally in movie
theaters since 1999.
In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C,
SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also
offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround
playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES
Extended Surround includes two signal formats
with different surround signal recording methods,
as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.
Note or Dolby Digital Surround EX
•
When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded
software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the
EX/ES mode.
• Note that some Dolby Digital Surround EX-
encoded software does not contain the
identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ES
mode manually.
• dts Neo:6®
The advantages of discrete multichannel systems
over matrix are well known.
Note for 96 kHz PCM audio
•
The AUTO, Pure Direct, and Stereo modes can be
used when playing PCM signals with a sampling
frequency of 96 kHz (such as from DVD-Video/
Audio discs).
But even in homes equipped for discrete
multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality
matrix decoding. This is because of the large library
of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc
and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts.
The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center
channel and a mono surround channel from two-
channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a
simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to
improve separation, but because of its mono, band-
limited surround it can be disappointing to users
accustomed to discrete multichannel.
•
•
Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output.
For details, refer to the player’s operation manual.
Some DVD discs feature copy protection. When
using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal are not output
from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player’s
operation manual.

• dts Digital Surround 96/24
The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at
44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24-bit
for some time, and there is increasing interest in
higher sampling rates both for recording and for
delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide
extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates
allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-
alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable
aural characteristics.
DTS-HD Master Audio is capable of delivering audio
that is a bit-for-bit identical to the studio master.
DTS-HD Master Audio delivers audio at super high
variable bit rates -24.5 mega-bits per second (Mbps)
on Blu-ray discs and 18.0 Mbps on HD-DVD - that
are significantly higher than standard DVDs . This bit
stream is so “fast” and the transfer rate is so “high”
that it can deliver the Holy Grail of audio: 7.1 audio
channels at 96k sampling frequency/24 bit depths
that are identical to the original. With DTS-HD
Master Audio, you will be able to experience movies
and music, exactly as the artist intended: clear, pure,
and uncompromised.
Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital audio
coding for such consumer formats as DVD and
DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital can provide
up to five full-range channels for left, center, and
right screen channels, independent left and right
surround channels, and a sixth (“.1”) channel for
low-frequency effects.
DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to
be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD-Video
titles.
When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to
deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only
in two channels, and with serious limitations on
picture. This capability has had little use.
DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a
new player is needed, and only analog outputs
are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A
converters and analog electronics provided in the
player.
Dolby® TrueHD is Dolby’s next-generation lossless
technology developed for high-definition disc-based
media. Dolby TrueHD delivers tantalizing sound
that is bit-for-bit identical to the studio master,
unlocking the true high-definition entertainment
experience on next-generation discs. When coupled

unprecedented home theater experience that lets
you enjoy sound as stunning as the high-definition
