Before you start
Checking what’s in the box
Loading the batteries
Please check that you’ve received the following
supplied accessories:
• Setup microphone (cable: 5 m (16.4 ft.))
• Remote control unit
• AA size IEC R6 dry cell batteries (to confirm
system operation) x2
CAUTION
• AM loop antenna
• FM wire antenna
• iPod cable
Incorrect use of batteries may result in such
hazards as leakage and bursting. Observe the
following precautions:
• These operating instructions
• Never use new and old batteries together.
• Insert the plus and minus sides of the
batteries properly according to the marks
in the battery case.
Installing the receiver
• When installing this unit, make sure to put
it on a level and stable surface.
• Batteries with the same shape may have
different voltages. Do not use different
batteries together.
Don’t install it on the following places:
– on a color TV (the screen may distort)
– near a cassette deck (or close to a device that
gives off a magnetic field). This may interfere
with the sound.
• When disposing of used batteries, please
comply with governmental regulations or
environmental public instruction’s rules
that apply in your country or area.
– in direct sunlight
– in damp or wet areas
• WARNING
– in extremely hot or cold areas
– in places where there is vibration or other
movement
– in places that are very dusty
– in places that have hot fumes or oils (such as
a kitchen)
Do not use or store batteries in direct
sunlight or other excessively hot place,
such as inside a car or near a heater. This
can cause batteries to leak, overheat,
explode or catch fire. It can also reduce the
life or performance of batteries.
• Do not touch this receiver’s bottom panel
while the power is turned on. The bottom
panel gets hot when the power is on, and
touching it could cause burns.

[2] 5.1ch surround & Front Bi-amping
connection (High quality surround)
Bi-amping connection of the front speakers for
high sound quality with 5.1-channel surround
sound.
Determining the speakers’
application
Surround sound with a strong sense of
presence can be enjoyed by connecting 7
speakers and 1 subwoofer. It is also possible to
achieve high sound quality using bi-amp
connections and to enjoy music in other rooms
using the MULTI-ZONE feature. High sound
quality can be achieved with a minimum of two
speakers.

Some tips for improving sound quality
Where you put your speakers in the room has a
big effect on the quality of the sound. The
following guidelines should help you to get the
best sound from your system.
To achieve the best possible surround sound,
install your speakers as shown below.
5.1 channel surround system:
• The subwoofer can be placed on the floor.
Ideally, the other speakers should be at
about ear-level when you’re listening to
them. Putting the speakers on the floor
(except the subwoofer), or mounting them
very high on a wall is not recommended.
Center
Front right
Front left
Subwoofer

• For the best stereo effect, place the front
speakers 2 m to 3 m (6 ft. to 9 ft.) apart, at
equal distance from the TV.
Surround
right
Surround
left
• If you’re using a center speaker, place the
front speakers at a wider angle. If not, place
them at a narrower angle.
6.1 channel surround system:
• Place the center speaker above or below
the TV so that the sound of the center
channel is localized at the TV screen. Also,
make sure the center speaker does not
cross the line formed by the leading edge
of the front left and right speakers.
Center
Front left

• It is best to angle the speakers towards the
listening position. The angle depends on
the size of the room. Use less of an angle
for bigger rooms.

Surround Back
should be positioned 60 cm to 90 cm (2 ft.
to 3 ft.) higher than your ears and tilted
slight downward. Make sure the speakers
don’t face each other. For DVD-Audio, the
speakers should be more directly behind
the listener than for home theater playback.
7.1 channel surround system:
Center
Front left

Subwoofer
• If the surround speakers cannot be set
directly to the side of the listening position
with a 7.1-channel system, the surround
effect can be enhanced by turning off the
UP Mix function (see Setting the Up Mix
function on page 57).

so can weaken the surround sound effect.

Connecting your equipment
Connecting the speakers
Important
• Please refer to the manual that came with
your speakers for details on how to connect
the other end of the speaker cables to your
speakers.
Each speaker connection on the receiver
comprises a positive (+) and negative (–)
terminal. Make sure to match these up with the
terminals on the speakers themselves.
• Use an RCA cable to connect the subwoofer.
It is not possible to connect using speaker
cables.
CAUTION
• These speaker terminals carry
HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent
the risk of electric shock when connecting
or disconnecting the speaker cables,
disconnect the power cord before touching
any uninsulated parts.
CAUTION
• Make sure that all speakers are securely
installed. This not only improves sound
quality, but also reduces the risk of
damage or injury resulting from speakers
being knocked over or falling in the event of
external shocks such as earthquakes.
• Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is
twisted together and inserted fully into the
speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker
wire touches the back panel it may cause
the power to cut off as a safety measure.

Bi-amping is when you connect the high
frequency driver and low frequency driver of
your speakers to different amplifiers for better
crossover performance. Your speakers must be
bi-ampable to do this (having separate
terminals for high and low) and the sound
improvement will depend on the kind of
speakers you’re using.
Bi-wiring your speakers
Your speakers can also be bi-wired if they
support bi-amping.
• With these connections, the Surr Back
System setting makes no difference.
•
To bi-wire a speaker, connect two speaker
cables to the speaker terminal on the receiver.
Using a banana plug for the second
connection is recommended.
CAUTION
• Most speakers with both High and Low
terminals have two metal plates that
connect the High to the Low terminals.
These must be removed when you are bi-
amping the speakers or you could severely
damage the amplifier. See your speaker
manual for more information.
• If your speakers have a removable
crossover network, make sure you do not
remove it for bi-amping. Doing so may
damage your speakers.
CAUTION
• Don’t connect different speakers from the
same terminal in this way.
• When bi-wiring as well, heed the cautions
for bi-amping shown at the left.

About HDMI
The HDMI connection transfers
uncompressed digital video, as well as almost
every kind of digital audio that the connected
component is compatible with, including DVD-
Video, DVD-Audio, SACD, Dolby Digital Plus,
Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio (see
below for limitations), Video CD/Super VCD
and CD. See About the video converter on
page 22 for more on HDMI compatibility.
This receiver incorporates High-Definition
Multimedia Interface (HDMI™) technology.
This receiver supports the functions described
below through HDMI connections.
• Digital transfer of uncompressed video
(contents protected by HDCP (1080p/24,
1080p/60, etc.))
2
• DeepColor signal transfer
2
• x.v.Color signal transfer
• Input of multi-channel linear PCM digital
audio signals (192 kHz or less) for up to 8
channels
• Input of the following digital audio formats:
– Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS,
High bitrate audio (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD
Master Audio), DVD-Audio, CD, SACD
(DSD signal), Video CD, Super VCD
Note
1 • An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High
Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a separate
adaptor (DVIHDMI) to do so. A DVI connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio
dealer for more information.
• If you connect a component that is not compatible with HDCP, an HDCP ERROR message is displayed on the front
panel display. Some components that are compatible with HDCP still cause this message to be displayed, but so long
as there is no problem with displaying video this is not a malfunction.
• Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers.
•
This receiver supports SACD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. To take advantage of these
formats, however, make sure that the component connected to this receiver also supports the corresponding format.
2 Signal transfer is only possible when connected to a compatible component.

• Push down on the PUSH OPEN tab to
access the MCACC SETUP MIC jack.
The Auto MCACC Setup measures the
acoustic characteristics of your listening area,
taking into account ambient noise, speaker
connection and speaker size, and tests for both
channel delay and channel level. After you
have set up the microphone provided with your
system, the receiver uses the information from
a series of test tones to optimize the speaker
settings and equalization for your particular
room.
Place the microphone so that it’s about ear level
at your normal listening position (use a tripod if
possible). Make sure there are no obstacles
between the speakers and the microphone.

Better sound using Phase
Control
This receiver’s Phase Control feature uses
phase correction measures to make sure your
sound source arrives at the listening position
in phase, preventing unwanted distortion and/
or coloring of the sound.
Phase Control technology provides coherent
sound reproduction through the use of phase
1
matching for an optimal sound image. The
default setting is on and we recommend
leaving Phase Control switched on for all
sound sources.
•
Press RECEIVER , then press PHASE CTRL
(PHASE CONTROL) to switch on phase
correction.
The PHASE CONTROL indicator on the front
panel lights.
Note
1 • Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving proper sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’,
they crest and trough together, resulting in increased amplitude, clarity and presence of the sound signal. If a crest
of a wave meets a trough, then the sound will be ‘out of phase’ and an unreliable sound image will be produced.
• The PHASE CONTROL feature is available even when the headphones are plugged in.
• If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the plus (+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually
feel when PHASE CONTROL is set to ON on this receiver depends on the type of your subwoofer. Set your subwoofer
to maximize the effect. It is also recommended you try changing the orientation or the place of your subwoofer.
• Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to off. If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the cutoff
frequency to a higher value.
• If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not have a maximized PHASE CONTROL effect.
• The PHASE CONTROL mode cannot be set to ON in the following cases:
– When the PURE DIRECT mode is switched on.
– When the MULTI CH IN input is selected.
– When the HDMI audio output parameter is set to THROUGH in Setting the Audio options on page 64.

KURO LINK
Chapter 7
KURO LINK
Synchronized operation with a KURO LINK-
compatible Pioneer flat panel TV or Blu-ray disc
player or with a component of another make
that supports the KURO LINK function is
possible when the component is connected to
the receiver using an HDMI cable.
Making the KURO LINK
connections
You can use synchronized operation for a
connected flat panel TV and up to four (VSX-
1019AH model)/three (VSX-919AH model) other
components.
For details about concrete operations, settings,
etc., refer to also the operating instructions for
each component.
Be sure to connect the flat panel TV’s audio
cable to the audio input of this unit.
• You cannot use this function with
components that do not support KURO
LINK.
For details, see Connecting your TV and
playback components on page 23.
• We do not guarantee this receiver will work
with Pioneer KURO LINK-compatible
components or components of other makes
that support the KURO LINK function. We
do not guarantee that all synchronized
operations will work with components of
other makes that support the KURO LINK
function.
Important
• When connecting this system or changing
connections, be sure to switch the power
off and disconnect the power cord from the
wall socket.
After completing all connections, connect
the power cords to the wall socket.
• Use a High Speed HDMI™ cable when you
want to use the KURO LINK function. The
KURO LINK function may not work
properly if a different type of HDMI cable is
used.
• After this receiver is connected to an AC
outlet, a 2 second to 10 second HDMI
initialization process begins. You cannot
carry out any operations during
initialization. The HDMI indicator on the
display unit blinks during initialization, and
you can turn this receiver on once it has
stopped blinking.
• To get the most out of this function, we
recommend that you connect your HDMI
component not to a flat panel TV but rather
directly to the HDMI terminal on this
receiver.
• While the receiver is equipped with four
(VSX-1019AH model)/three (VSX-919AH
model) HDMI inputs, the KURO LINK
function can only be used with up to three
DVD or Blu-ray disc players or up to three
DVD or Blu-ray disc recorders.

the input function buttons (such as DVD or
CD) using the component’s manufacturer
preset code stored in the remote.
However, there are cases where only certain
functions may be controllable after assigning
the proper preset code, or the codes for the
manufacturer in the remote control will not
work for the model that you are using.

characteristics of the listening environment
are measured and the frequency response is
calibrated accordingly to allow high precision,
automatic analysis and optimal calibration of
the sound field to bring it closer to a studio

1 • Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm (5
inches) will end up with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Manual speaker setup
on page 94.
• The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting
should be accurate (taking delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.
• If Auto MCACC Setup measurement results are incorrect due to the interaction of the speakers and viewing
environment, we recommend adjusting the settings manually.
2 Since the distance measurements have been set according to the sound characteristics of your speakers, there are
cases where (for optimal surround sound) the actual distance may differ from the speaker distance setting.

Standing Wave
1
• Default setting: ON /ATT 0.0dB (all filters)
Acoustic standing waves occur when, under
certain conditions, sound waves from your
speaker system resonate mutually with sound
waves reflected off the walls in your listening
area. This can have a negative effect on the
overall sound, especially at certain lower
frequencies. Depending on speaker placement,
your listening position, and ultimately the
shape of your room, it results in an overly
resonant (‘boomy’) sound. The Standing Wave
Control uses filters to reduce the effect of overly
resonant sounds in your listening area. During
playback of a source, you can customize the
filters used for Standing Wave Control for each
of your MCACC presets.2
• Freq / Q / ATT – These are the filter
parameters where Freq represents the
frequency you will be targeting and Q is the
bandwidth (the higher the Q, the narrower
the bandwidth, or range) of the attenuation

targeted frequency).

1 If the Reverb View procedure is performed after the Automatically setting up for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on
page 37 or Reverb Measurement operation, depending on the standing wave control setting, differences may
appear on the reverb graph. With the Auto MCACC function, the reverberations are measured with the standing waves
controlled, so the reverb characteristics graph shows the characteristics with the effect of the standing waves
eliminated. By contrast, the Reverb Measurement function measures the reverberations without controlling the
standing waves, so the graph indicates the reverb characteristics including the effect of the standing waves. If you
wish to check the reverb characteristics of the room itself (with the standing waves as such), we recommend using

• If you select one surround back speaker only, make sure that speaker is hooked up to the left surround back
terminal.
2 If you have a subwoofer and like lots of bass, it may seem logical to select LARGE for your front speakers and PLUS
for the subwoofer. This may not, however, yield the best bass results. Depending on the speaker placement of your
room you may actually experience a decrease in the amount of bass due low frequency cancellations. In this case, try
changing the position or direction of speakers. If you can’t get good results, listen to the bass response with it set to
PLUS and YES or the front speakers set to LARGE and SMALL alternatively and let your ears judge which sounds best.
If you’re having problems, the easiest option is to route all the bass sounds to the subwoofer by selecting SMALL for
the front speakers.
3 • This setting decides the cutoff between bass sounds playing back from the speakers selected as LARGE, or the
subwoofer, and bass sounds playing back from those selected as SMALL. It also decides where the cutoff will be for
bass sounds in the LFE channel.
• If you’re using a THX speaker setup, confirm that the crossover frequency is set to 80Hz.

video output of your HDMI-equipped
component to the receiver’s component video
input. The receiver can then convert the analog
component video signal to a digital HDMI
signal for transmission to the display. For this
configuration, use the most convenient
connection (digital is recommended) for
sending audio to the receiver. See the
operating instructions for more on audio
connections.
If you aren’t receiving HDMI signals properly
through this receiver (from your component),
please try one of the following configurations
when connecting up.
Note
• The picture quality will change slightly
during conversion.

Additional information
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will
provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since
hearing damage from loud noise is often
undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer
and the Electronic Industries Association’s
Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid
prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of
sound levels is included for your protection.
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit
you’ve just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how
you can maximize the fun and excitement your
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of
your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that
lets the sound come through loud and clear without
annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly,
without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Decibel
Level Example
30 Quiet library, soft whispers
40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock
at two feet.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing
“comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound.
So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your
hearing adapts.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS
UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers,
thunderclap
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane
180 Rocket launching pad
Once you have established a comfortable sound
level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Information courtesy of the Deafness Research Foundation.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent
hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we
want you listening for a lifetime.
